I have never managed to use this character but I know I had some good RP themes for her when I created her, now it looks like she will be remembered for a different reason. It is not too late to use her, though.

Ophelia herself was born in a very poor family though they managed to get by until Ophelia and her brother and sister were old enough to work. Her father Ray Blake worked the farm which was also where there house was and her mother was a cleaner for the royal family. The farm was located outside the castle gates and was protected by the royal knights because of her mum’s services. Her brother helped out there farther on the farm while her sister went on to help a stall worker in the market place. Ophelia herself was a form of a delivery girl and she kept this job until she was 18 where she grew an interest in becoming a knight. She would use anything that was long enough to act like a sword when she was free. Ophelia had a natural talent for this and was soon picked up by one of the royal trainers though not given a suit of armour she made her own from leather. This was the start of her long adventure on the path to all that was good though staying on the path was another thing. She was lighter on her feet and a much quicker though she had these advantages she did not go into combat until she completed her training. [u][b]Armour 1-Lion Armour:[/b][/u] For the first couple of weeks it was rough for her though over the course of those weeks she started applying thick steel under many parts of her leather like armour. The chest area had a full steel plate under it and her arms and legs had chain mail under the leather exterior. Eventually, her armour was almost all metal though she had the advantage due to people thinking she was more defenseless than she already looked. Her speed was cut in half but she was faster than standard knights who had much more protection. At this stage she only trained with the Broadsword and Crossbow, both skills were developed but her broadsword skills were the best at this point. She passed her test and was soon thrown into the field though she did not fight proper knights for the first three months as she was still considered a trainee. She eventually teamed up with several knights who saw her potential to be one of the greatest knights in history. For a solid year she managed to keep her wits with her in battle though soon enough she had come across a knight, well someone she thought was a knight. In reality, it was a convict who managed to kill an un-expecting knight and now uses that knights armour. This knight was not really trained but since he was better armoured then she was she had to think carefully when confronting him. It was a long fight between the two but Ophelia came out on top after exploiting many of the enemies weaknesses, the person had stamina which she did not count on seeing. After that day, she started coming across other knights though they were not fighting each other because most fought for the same reason as her. A year later she was recommended to be one of the knights of nine though unknown to the public there was actually ten of them. She worked hard and did everything right though like a human made a few mistakes. Most of her armour were now scratched but she was going to get proper armour soon. Soon enough she was accepted as one of the knights of nine. She knew some more weapon training would be involved and better things would happen. She would be able to support her family on her own, not that she would boast about it. [u][b]Armour 2-Knight of Nine (0):[/b][/u] Ophelia was soon knighted by the queen and king and was now one of the knights of nine. With the public out of sight, she was assigned as number 0, number 0 was the best as the order went from 9-1. Unlike the others though the public would not know this position as it was really secretive and unlike the other nine Ophelia would have jobs to do that only a person in her shoes could do. During this time she worked with the other members of the knights of nine, she and one other woman were the only females in the knights of nine. They were both considered as dirt to one of the knights of nine. Number 3 was arrogant and was full of himself. She gained respect from all of them except for number 3 but his legend was cut short as he was taken down by the black knight that roamed the land. The black knight was looking for someone who could challenge him though soon he would find that person. Ophelia went on many missions to help the royal family and the city outside the castle walls. Blood was spilled and lives were taking, many of them were scum that would make no difference if they were around or not. Her training now lets her handle the Morningstar and Halberd making her more deadly than before. Her accuracy was better than before making it harder for many to approach her unless they closed in using her blind side. She was protected to the teeth but her vision was rather limited meaning many could surprise attack her but luckily her thick armour managed to keep her protected against such tactics. A new person took number threes place, it was yet another woman which now made it 7 men and 3 women. They all had their own skills and working together helped them do things most could not do on their own. Ophelia, for the most part, had to do things on her own but when she did have help they were a very tight unit. Cutting, slashing, stabbing, impaling and bashing were everything she could do very well. When she turned 21 she had come across the black knight as she returned home from doing something for the royal family. The black knight knew she was one of the knights of nine and that she was number 0 which only the royal family knew of. There was no escape either as she was cornered off and the only way out was to beat the black knight. The fight was hard on both of them and each pulled out another trick until both of them found it hard to stand. After a while, the black knight said a few things to her before Ophelia finished him off. The black knight was very forceful and strong but he did not have the wit Ophelia had and that was why he lost to her and, in fact, had no regrets. With his dying breath he uttered one last thing to her which made her pale as a ghost. Beating the black knight meant she gain the curse of the dark knight. She made it back with her trusty partner Epona and no one knew she defeated the black knight. The black knight himself was buried and his horse was taken, but all the armour was taken off to make it look like it was a normal horse. For the next couple of months, things seemed normal but the kingdom soon had something worse than the black knight. This knight did not kill random people and the said knight seemed to do all the jobs before the knights of nine could do them. The knight did steal things, most important things that were on their way to the royal family or leaving the royal family. Coming across the corrupt knight was rare and trying to find that knight was pointless as there were no clues to their whereabouts. [u][b]Armour 3-Knight of Corruption:[/b][/u] Ophelia traded up and learned new fighting styles and weapon styles. She now had a double life, one as the noble knight of the knights of nine and the other a feared and skillful knight known as the knight of corruption. She out of all of the knights knew where to find the orders that were issued to them so she could get the jobs done before they even know about it. The knight of corruption, in fact, does corrupt, only the weak change rapidly while the strong-willed take longer or just don’t get corrupted like most, if not all the knights of nine. Ophelia has a little place out in the swamps which is called the swamp of corruption. This little place is one of the safest places she has as most don’t dare to enter and those who do get lost or never make it that far. Over a full year, she developed two sides though of the same personality, one side was honour and the other was just darkness all around. She managed to keep both in check and even managed to keep her other side a secret. Most of the time she was missing from the knights of nine when they asked she would say she was doing something for the royal family. Her teamwork skills had been getting worse and worse but her lust for power and control grew stronger and stronger. Even with that, she kept that dark side in check yet it felt like the curse was getting stronger as each day passed. Ophelia knew one thing, she would be in the legends for the good things and in the legends of the bad things. Even though the dark side would be in legends her secret would be safe as no one knew who this knight was. She worked much harder when she was with the knights of nine, as 0 she had unlimited resources due to her hard work and ties with the royal family. These connections had both positives and negatives to them as when she got what she wanted she would sometimes use it for her dark side. This secret would go to the grave with her as she did not want the family to feel ashamed of her for her double life. She only wanted them to remember her for the good things. As the knight of corruption, she was a blunt weapon master as her Mace was her main weapon though the Morningstar and Halberd were used a lot as well. The Crossbow and Broadsword were not used as much, mainly to make it seem like it was someone else, using all the weapons could blow her cover as only a few knights bother to learn all the weapons a knight has at hand. As soon as she hit her 24th birthday her dark side was now known across the whole of the land and even some places across the sea had heard of the knight of corruption. Oversea stories were all slightly different to each other and each one had things that were not true though most of the story were more truth than lies. At this age, she was more of a killer and would steal from anything and anyone. The royals were still her main target when things were being transported back and forth. At this time many artists had made many painting of this knight, only royal and rich families brought them. Each painting was different as each person had mentioned them in different ways. The knight of corruption has multiple stashes of treasures and weaponry spread out across the land. Each one was hard to find and even harder to obtain as many traps protected her treasures and only she knew where they all are. Ophelia would also makeup tales of her good side and a bad side meeting up in various places and always ending in a draw. Out of all the knights of nine, she is the strongest and that s why she is number 0. Her lair outside the swamp has many skulls to scare off people though if it didn’t it would still be tricky to find the building she stayed in. Since the knight of corruption sent fear to most some people started to pretend they were the knight themselves. Many got what they wanted and those who pretended to be the knight of corruption were also killed. Since so many people did it they were never sure if they killed the real one and many doubt they did. Most of them were poor at posing as the knight and even more, of them could not fight as one. The ones that could fight did not fight the same way and at that did not even use the Mace and many used the Broadsword or Morningstar. As the knight of corruption, she had a different partner then her knight of nine partners. Her horse was a black like the black knights and had, even more, armour then the black knight’s horse as well. Her horse is called Shadowmere and is loyal to Ophelia. There are rumours that she has a fourth set of armour though details are unknown if it is true or not. Her first set of armour is now on display at her home and many come to see it. [/hider]
