Guardian Knight

Guardian Knights are enemies solely found in High Peak Castle.

Behavior
When they see the player, they will immediately perform a short charge-up, before spinning the blade fast enough to create a vortex around them, which sucks up turrets and the Beheaded from about a screen away, and hitting them rapidly. They are completely immune to projectiles when using this attack, but they are not immune to whips, grenades, damage over time effects, or parries. After using this attack, there is a short cooldown where the Guardian Knight cannot use it again, where they then will attack with a large overhead slash that deals massive damage until they can use the tornado attack again.

If the player has a shield equipped, then the force field created on hit will cancel the tornado attack they use, making you only be hit by it once. the tornado attack will also not suck you in if you are far enough away from the Guardian Knight, or if you are on a different vertical level as the vortex. The Guardian Knight is also one of the slowest enemies in the game, so it's fairly easy to stay out of their way to fight other enemies.
