Gold Knight

The Gold Knight is a main boss and NPC in Hollow Knight: Deathzone.

Lore
The Gold Knight was a failed attempt at building a backup clone for the Pure Vessel. During the Pale King’s rule, the King had built the Gold Knight which he wanted to use to replace the Pure Vessel in case the original Pure Vessel was taken over by the Infection. However, he had ran out of vessels to use, so he had built himself a construct to look like the one sealed in the Temple of the Black Egg. The Pale King injected a special fluid (Hiveblood) into it, given to the King from from Hive Queen Vespa herself. This had been done as an attempt to give the Gold Knight immortality.

Unfortunately, the Gold Knight was left unfinished as the Pale King died shortly after, and the Hiveblood was never perfected. The Gold Knight left Hallownest shortly after, traveling across the lands and eventually settling in the Deathzone, where the vessel tried to fix up the fallen civilization.
