This knight prefers to get into melee as fast as possible. Once in combat he can lay down the pain with Nethermist. Obviously he's not stupid, so he enchances his own powers with magic while lowering the power of his targets. He will neverr run away, but may fall back to lead his troops better. If he has time to prepare, expect heavy wounds. Aethelnoth will ready enough elite knights to fight all but one of his targets. The last one will be the person the Black Knight fights. He's a noble person, despite being evil. Make certain to keep his Arcane Armour Mastery activated. This will ensure that his spells will almost never fizzle, even in close combat thanks to his high concentration.

He should be play polite and poised. He was a noble, so treat him as such. He won't shy from a fight, but he's not coming to you. If somebody wants to fight to the center of his castle and fight him, that's fine. But he's not  meeting you at the gates. Aethelnoth is impossible to anger and will keep a cool head no matter what. Don't even expect a laugh. His personality has boiled down to a constant level head. The only real emotion he shows would be contempt.

Long ago he was the high general of a major nation. He was a perfect leader and made the land as big as it is today. But in a war against a demonic army, lead by Vraksus the Red, his entire army was wiped out. Aethelnoth only escaped by fleeing the scence mid-way through the battle. It plagued him ever since, and he swore two things. One, that he would never flee from a battle ever again. And two, he would get revenge on the nation that ordered this senseless war on demons.

After surviving for years in the wasteland, battling all manner of creatures, Aethelnoth found a small, forgotten town. He used this to rebuild his army and take over other towns in the waste lands. Now he rules the wastes with his iron fists, and as launched many attacks on the nations of the world, each time inflicting a terrible toll After all this time he has forgotten why he hates the country that sent him to war, but he still keeps up his attacks.

Author's Note: Be careful. He's very powerful. Feedback is very much welcome. In fact, if you don't give me feedback I will eat your dog. If you don't have a dog I will buy you one, get you attacted to him, THEN I will eat him.
