Skull Knight

Character from Berserk by Kentaro Miura

An undead king entombed in ancient armor who has waged a thousand-year war against the God Hand — not because he believes he can win, but because the alternative is to stop.

Also known as: King of the Castle of the Dead, Foe of the Inhumans, His Majesty

What They Know

• Has fought the God Hand for approximately a thousand years — witnessed multiple Eclipse ceremonies and intervened where possible
• The Sword of Beherits was created by swallowing ingested beherits into his thorned blade — it can cut through dimensional barriers and open rifts in the Astral World
• Was the previous wearer of the Berserker Armor — fought in it until completely drained of blood, suggesting he died and continued fighting
• Rescued Guts and Casca from the Eclipse by cutting through the dimensional boundary — the only known escape from a God Hand ceremony
• His attack on Femto at Ganishka's transformation was redirected, inadvertently triggering the Great Wave that merged physical and astral worlds
• Heavily implied to be the ancient Emperor Gaiseric who unified Midland a thousand years ago — multiple characters address him as 'king' and 'Your Majesty'
• Maintained a centuries-long relationship with the witch Flora, who guarded the Berserker Armor at his request
