 * "Break ties with your family and run away.": Nothing. But this option enables the Dash skill if you later choose to "Rush straight after him." when you depart for your journey.

The Knight can start with different equipment depending on which option the player chooses during the intro, when the Rondon army attacks the army the Knight is with.
 * "Listen to your family and stay as a holy knight": You get 20 Silver coins.

"... you had to choose which position to take in the oncoming encounter." "Before leaving on your desperate journey, you decided to stock up on equipment and items..." The Knight has the Domination soul. She can later learn Leg sweep and Counter. Using a Book of memories will teach her Counter.

Lore
The Knight is called D'arce in-game and can be recruited from the Cavedweller village. She attempted to rescue Le'garde, who she is deeply in love with, once she heard that he was being held in prison. She was captured and violated by the Cavedwellers after preaching to them the greatness of Alll-Mer, a common deity of Rondon.

S Rank Ending
The Knight's character specific S rank ending can only be achieved in hardmode. In order to do so, the player must locate three parts of a book on the subject of artificial life used to revive The Captain, Le'Garde.
 * The first page is hidden as a lone book on the stone floor of where the player would meet The Dark Priest as an NPC on the first floor.
 * The second page can be found in Nosaramus's personal living space within the mines, downward from where the first yellow mage is encountered and then guarded by a knight spectre. In order to remove the spectre and open the door, one must run past the phantom and destroy the physical armour producing it, this will unlock the door. Pressing enter to examine the old knight altar will give the prompt to attack it. Attacking the old knight armour guarding that area then using one explosive vial will instantly defeat the possesed armour and allow the player to escape the battle unharmed.
 * The third page can be found in the grand library within Ma'habre (Third page location needs confirmation).
