banished knight

Banished Knights are enemies found in Elden Ring. They have heavy steel armor and are found wielding various weapons - dual swords, a halberd or a shield and sword. They can summon a vortex of wind (varies depending on their weapons) and leap at the Tarnished in combat. Later variants can be found wearing a red cloak around their helmet. The cloaked ones are presumably in allegiance with the Ancient Dragons, as they gain a fire incantation in addition to their usual attacks.
