		"The Dread Knight.  A truly Afflicted mind.  One would do well to fear the Dread Knight.  They were once ruthless commanders of armies.  They had no problem sending scores of their own men into guaranteed death if it meant even the slightest chance of victory",
		"Dread Knights had the cruelest, most uncaring military minds.  Outside of the battle field, they were just as fearsome.  They were the type of person who would abuse their servants, order their men to steal live stock, and burn down an entire tavern if any peasant so much as looked their way incorrectly.",
		"Perhaps it was one of those occurances that lead them to their fate.  Maybe it was a Witch who survived one of their village raids who Cursed them.",
		"Maybe it was a higher power, attempting to punish them for their wicked ways",
		"Or maybe their Humanity is just too far gone.  Whatever the cause, we know the effect.  All that is left is a husk of what was once a member of society, leaving the Dread Knight.  A cold, calculating, malicious person who is almost un-matched on the Battle Field.  They no longer command armies, instead they are employed by the most powerful of Lords to lead a small death squad.  When a Dread Knight enters the field, an aura of panic covers it.  You may not know it just by looking at this person, but you feel it.  Something underneath that Armor is...Evil.  Truly, heartlessly, Evil.  You tremble...you don't belong here.  This isn't where you die.  You have to run. Far.",
		"Their most important stats to rule the battlefield as a tyrant are Strength, Willpower, and Cunning",
		"#GOLD#Stat modifiers:",
		"#LIGHT_BLUE# * 3 Strength, +0 Dexterity, +2 Constitution",
		"#LIGHT_BLUE# * -2 Magic, +3 Willpower, 3 Cunning",
