This space is deadicated to "The Darkest Knight", the first of the series of the "Dark Times" Trilogy, my first novels. The series is (primarily) a Fantasy fictional work.
It is a place to find out about the mythos behind the works, of the characters involved in the story and - of course - for you to read the book itself, which will be uploaded chapter by chapter into the "Blog" section.
Based upon the ideas and characters featured in the "Dark Times Roleplaying Game" by [Real Name witheld; MySpace handle: MONKEYJIM], "The Darkest Knight" follows the story of 'Noctus', last of the Fair Folk in a land where magic is dying. A member of the mysterious "Shadonian Order", Noctus is a Knight-Sorcerer who's very birth has set an unavoidable and unclear fate before him.

THE MAIN CHARACTERS
(Updated as the story progresses)
NOCTUS: Last of the Fair Folk to exist in the world of Man, Noctus is the main character in the story. Raised in the lands of Man by his father and trained in the ways of the mysterious 'Shadonian Order', Noctus is a Knight-Sorcerer proficient in the ways of combat and 'The Art'. Struggling to survive in a world which does not understand or accept him, he is nevertheless a bringer of light in the darkness.
TOMMY MORSDEN: A young human orphan boy who becomes Noctus' ward early in the story, Thomas (or 'Tommy' as he prefers to be called) is a spirited, resourceful child who shares Noctus' sense of not belonging.
LUNATHIAN, "THE DARK RIDER": This mysterious and murderous being is the main antagonist at the beginning of the story and brings misery and darkness into the sleepy Human town of Haven. He is later revealed to be an "Obtenus", an undead mockery of a Shadonian Knight.

Leader of the Elven lands of Ath, she battles against the Selee Elves. She is a powerful and ancient Sorceress.
IANNA BROOK : A Human Priestess of Eleanor, she first meets Noctus and Tommy when she is attacked by bandits and saved by Noctus. She travels with the two to the town of Westbridge.
