Skull Knight

Skull Knight

‘I have no name to give to mere apostles, I’ll say only that I am the one who opposes the Five Angels.’ Not much is known about Skull Knight’s background. He has been alive for well over 200 years, during which he befriended Flora the Witch of the Forest and became mortal enemies with Nosferatu Zodd. He came into possession of the Berserker Armour and used it to fight Apostles and the God Hand to his death. He might be the Supreme King Gaiseric, but that is an unconfirmed fan theory.
