The knight came to Earth with the legendary Guardian Knights' Talisman due to the threat Quintessa and Cybertron now posed to it. Unfortunately, his ship was shot down over Chicago by the TRF and he himself was mortally wounded. He lay unconscious until a group of human children investigated his ship and woke him. Cade Yeager, after saving the children from the TRF, returned to help him. Unfortunately, the knight had been too badly wounded and was leaking energon fast, and Cade apologized for not being able to do more. Unable to complete his mission, he saw Cade's compassion as a sign the human was worthy of the knight's honor. The knight presented the Talisman to him, declaring that it would protect him and proclaiming the ancient phrase to protect the staff. Cade, however, refused it, believing it a mere trinket offered as a thank you, saying it was not needed and that the knight should keep it. As Cade left, the knight used his last moments to bid the Talisman to grow legs and find its new master before he finally died.
Unfortunately, his exchange with Cade was witnessed by the Decepticon Barricade, who reported it to Megatron, who sought the talisman to find the Staff of Merlin for Quintessa. His body was later found by TRF, which led the human government into their own search for the Staff. His valiant sacrifice was not in vain, as the Talisman did indeed find Cade, who subsequently found the staff and saved the Earth from Quintessa. The Last Knight
Notes
- The Talisman Knight uses an altered version of Dragonicus's character model.
- Edmund Burton stated to Cade and Viviane that there were 12 Guardian Knights alongside the 12 Knights of the Round Table, and the film later shows approximately 12 Knights emerging from the Guardian Knights' ship while the Talisman Knight is dead. It is thus unclear if Burton was wrong about the number of Guardian Knights, or if the Knights merely had more members elsewhere.
