Block Tales Banished Knight character facts
Banished Knight is easy to misread because he has two useful roles. Early on, he is the Snowy Thicket fight that checks whether the player can deal with Defense and Mobile timing. Later, he becomes a shop reason to revisit Telamon's Manor.
That makes the character page different from the boss page. The boss page answers how to beat him. This page answers why his name keeps coming back after Chapter 1.
- Use the boss guide for turn-by-turn fight advice.
- Use this page to connect the fight, later shop, and card routes.
- Do not plan around the old 12 HP value; current data lists 8 HP.
- Remember the Telamon's Manor shop role when checking card sources.
From Snowy Thicket fight to Manor shop
The Snowy Thicket encounter is a small fight with long-term value. If Banished Knight stalls you, the issue is usually weak damage into 1 Defense or healing too late against Mobile timing.
The later shop version is the reason collectors and build planners care. Charge DEF, Free Ice, Free Fire, Free Poison, Slingshot, Launcher, Sacrifice, and Deep Focus all point back to him in different build plans.
- Power Stab is cleaner than tiny chip damage in the Chapter 1 fight.
- Charge DEF and Sacrifice are support-buying decisions later.
- Free Ice, Free Fire, and Free Poison cover elemental build gaps.
- Slingshot and Launcher change basic attack planning.
Banished Knight compared with Cruel King
Banished Knight is the route check before the castle climax. Cruel King is the Chapter 1 wall that tests freeze, summons, and recovery.
Players who spend every item beating Banished Knight should stop and restock before Blackrock Castle. Winning a mini-boss while empty is not a good castle plan.
- Banished Knight: Defense and Mobile timing.
- Cruel King: Freeze, helpers, and Refreshing Heal.
- Snowy Thicket: route cleanup and Accountant Jim context.
- Telamon's Manor: later card-shop return value.

Boss
Banished Knight

Chapter
Chapter 1
Block Tales Chapter 1, Storming the Castle, runs from the Caves into Roadtown, Snowy Thicket, and Blackrock Castle. The chapter teaches Ball, Dynamite, keys, dungeon routing, and ends with Cruel King and the Ice Dagger.
Location
Snowy Thicket
Block Tales Snowy Thicket is the Chapter 1 route from Roadtown toward Blackrock Castle. It contains the Snowy Thicket Mines, Accountant Jim, Dynamite, wildlife pressure, and the Banished Knight mini-boss. The area tests whether players can save enough SP for the castle.
Location
Telamon's Manor
Block Tales Telamon's Manor is the Chapter 3 haunted manor route after Cemetery and before Catacombs and Dream World. It connects Telamon story context, Greed, the Solitude/Sorrow route naming issue, Sword Toss in the haunted basement, Amber's HP Drain shop source, and Banished Knight's later card shop.
Boss
Cruel King
Block Tales Cruel King is the Chapter 1 final boss in Blackrock Castle. He has 30 HP, uses freeze pressure, can summon Loyal Knight or Crossbow Crony, and punishes players who enter the throne room with no SP plan.
Card
Charge DEF
Block Tales Charge DEF is a 1 BP action card that costs 3 SP and gives Halved Damage for 3 turns. It is a setup defense card, not a panic heal. Use it before a known damage window, especially when a boss or heavy enemy is about to punish the party. It is sold by Gene for 100 TIX and Banished Knight for 50 TIX, with no sell value. Charge DEF is worth the SP when it prevents more damage than a normal heal would fix. It is weak if you cast it after the dangerous turn has already happened.
Card
Sacrifice
Block Tales Sacrifice is a 1 BP action card that heals allies by 5 HP while the user loses 5 HP. It is strong in parties when one player can safely spend health to keep everyone else alive, but dangerous at low HP and weak in plans that already struggle to keep the support player standing.
Card
Free Ice
Block Tales Free Ice is a 1 BP action card that costs 1 SP and gives Enchant: Ice level 1 for the next attack. It is found on Pit Floor [20], sold by Banished Knight for 150 TIX, and can drop from several Chapter 1 enemies at 1.2%.
