Background

Shovel Knight is a platformer series created by Yacht Club Games and released on numerous devices in 2014. It has seen many developments and sequels, with its titular character appearing in many big and small games. The series was created as a tribute to older titles found on the NES and SNES, with future installments seeing an upgrade in quality.

The story is that long ago, the lands were untamed and roamed by wandering adventurers. An ancient artifact called the Phase Locket, which has power over life and death, is sought out by two such wanderers: Donovan and Shield Knight. After a battle over the gem, Shield Knight accidentally absorbs its evil powers, becoming the tenebrous Enchantress, with Donovan dead. She resurrects him as Specter Knight under the promise he will serve her and seek out others Knights and recruit them into her Order of No Quarter.

After various Knights have been recruited and conquer various areas in the land, there remain very few refuges left for peaceful townspeople. As the Enchantress plans to release one final attack to end the job, a new hero emerges from the dark, the titular protagonist Shovel Knight. It is up to him to defeat the Enchantress, stopping the Knights and saving the people, while also bringing back his long lost friend, Shield Knight.

Power of the Verse

All characters in the verse are Dwarf Star level and Massively Hypersonic, with even the fodder characters having access to weapons that slow time for beings resistant to time stop. Specter Knight can remake his non-corporeal form, the Enchantress has powers over life and death, and the Mirror of Fate can use Time Stop, Sealing and Fate Manipulation.
