Description
You’re a hero. The Knight in shining armour, there to save the day. How many times have you saved a friend’s ass? You’ve lost count. Point is, you’re real good at it. But you’ve got a problem, sorta. There’s a Dragon on the loose, now. I’m sure it’s not a big deal, right? Other people have bigger problems to worry about. Stick to what you’re good at: helping people. Even if it means you can’t help yourself. Self-sacrificing, heroic, caring, and frightened. The Knight is threatened by something powerful and dangerous that they can’t face, in part because they can’t or won’t put themselves first. They could save everyone, but they can’t save themselves. The Knight is a playbook for Monsterhearts 2e who uses the metaphor of a Dragon to explore problems in their life; their Dragon might literally be a giant fire-breathing lizard, or it might be your concerns around your sexuality and gender identity. But the Knight doesn't actually want to stand toe to toe with their Dragon if there are other people who they can help first.
