Magic Knight

Magic Knights are magic golems introduced in.

Background
Magic Knights are golems of frightful magic, created during the Dark Ages by the Mages of Erebonia as a means to oppose the Deus-Excellion. They are capable of moving completely autonomously and can be regarded as subdimensional armaments. The mages were given the technology to create them by Black Alberich.

Multiple types of Magic Knights have been constructed based on the prototype Ol-Gadia: Ortheim, a type that wields swords in each of its four arms; Direwolf, a powerful type with swollen arms; Heavy Ruby, a heavy type wielding a giant battleaxe; Sigurheim, a type wielding a greatsword; Dyna Golem, wielding iron balls; and Izra-Lucier, a centaur-like type.

Unlike the Deus-Excellion, which require a pilot, a Magic Knight could be simply purchased with mira, making them invaluable to infuential families. Its fundamental design flaw of being capable of movement only when the septium veins were being stimulated worked in its favour as opponents of the Deus-Excellion, whose manifestation were enough stimulate the septium veins.

Magic Knights were taller than the Golems created by the Crossbellan alchemists and approximately the same size as Deus-Excellion.
