Tutorial Knight

Tutorial Knight is an NPC in Dead Cells. She is the Beheaded's first encounter at the start of the game, and gives him cryptic advice before sending him on his way. She ends up killed by an unknown person or monster and her corpse can be found as soon as the player starts their 4th run. This allows the Beheaded to loot the Broadsword blueprint off her corpse (she seems to have that weapon on her back), which can be found in every door leading to the Promenade of The Condemned.

Tutorial Knight is one of the few beings on the Island who doesn’t see the Beheaded as a foe or client. It is currently unclear what her motivations are for helping him, if she has any at all.

Development

 * Tutorial Knight was developed and drawn by Motion Twin artist Gwen.
 * Tutorial Knight was a male during the early access days of the game, but this was changed later.

Lore
Not much is known about Tutorial Knight. Curiously, she is one of the only characters to remain dead. The only other character who shares this with her is The King.

Her portrait can be seen at high peak castle, suggesting she is related to the king, or was a knight for the king.
