Knight of Swords

The blind Knight of Swords strides alongside you, a being of energy who does not see the structures within which others are bound.

The Knight of Swords’ cloak is surprise, and his sword slays the dragon of convention. Expect surprise and an unexpected burst of energy.

Upright

• Novelty
• Charm
• Lack of resolve

Despite his lack of vision, the Knight of Swords’ powers of perception seem to grow noticeably while you travel together. His intelligence is perhaps more intellectual than emotional, and his tendency to impetuous action is not without risk.

The Knight of Swords may join your journey as a student, or a bright individual pursuing a career founded in creativity and persuasion. Though they may appear untrustworthy in their dealings with others, you find yourself able to trust in their relationship with you.

Inverted

• Misplaced trust
• Deceit
• Devious intelligence

The inverted Knight of Swords’ blinded eyes are impossible to read, the quicksilver tongue of his dragon accomplice impossible to trust. The truths he reveals to you are inconsequential, and much lays hidden beneath his armour.

Guard your ideas, for the Knight of Swords inverted will take them for his own; the honesty he seeks to project is thin, and he sows seeds of dispute as he strides alongside you.
