great knights headcanons

• Ze'mer's hair grows very fast, and she has to cut it regularly. When she has it cut she has it repurposed to make wigs out of. (It seems Wigs were very popular in the city, especially amongst the wealthy.)

• Ze'mer loves to tell stories of her homeland, and come up with stories and poems of her own. She is usually very private, but among her close friends, she is open and always has tales to tell.

• Hegemol personally trained the watcher knights.

• Hegemol is a favorite amongst the citizens of the kingdom, especially within the city.

• The white lady gifted the knights their own private garden/rest area on the palace grounds (as 4/5ths of them have a connection to plant & nature.)

• the great knights did assist in training the Hollow knight. Hollow became especially fond of Isma (known as the kindest of the knights for a reason.)

• Hollow's fighting style and tactics are most similar to Dryya's and then Ze'mers.

• Dryya is a half root and the niece of the white lady. She was sent to live with the white lady and become a knight when she was very young.

• Also the age order of the knights is Hegemol the oldest then Dryya, Ze'mer, Isma, and Ogrim is the youngest.

• Hegemol helped train most of the other great knights, and he is like an older brother figure to them all.

• Ogrim was the last to join the ranks of the great knights and still feels the need to live up to his title and impress the king/the other knights.

• Ogrim was definitely in love with Isma, and she returned the feelings, neither wanted to act on them though until after the infection was sealed and the kingdom was stable once more (which never actually happened..)

• We joke that Isma was created as part of the Hallownest Greenpath knight exchange. She was a gift from Unn to Hallownest and no eyes (who we named Ida haha) was Hallownests gift to Greenpath.

• Also the battle of the black wyrm that Ogrim was a part of, is named after a place, not a person. The black wyrm is an old Hallownest fortress made out of the body of a Wyrm that died there hundreds of years before Ogrim was born. (The fortress is what later becomes the colluseum of fools.)

Bonus pale lurker hc!

• Pale lurker used to be the captain keeper of the black wyrm fortress. When lord fool and his followers took over the fort she was the last of the guards to survive, a very powerful warrior. Lord fool was impressed by her strength and kept her alive as prisoner and forced her to fight in the ring until she was driven to madness. (The simple key she protects she believes is the key to the fort, which it isn't but she is still attached to her old position and still loyal to the king)

Ok, so I think my last post about this didn't work properly so I'm trying again! I finally made Limited Edition Blue Raspberry Fight Milk art prints of some of my Hollow Knight artwork! They're all a limited edition of six prints each, so when they're all gone, that's it! It's like the Steel Soul mode of art prints. There's a link in the post source, I hope, but it's ko-fi dot com samikelsh/shop/hollowknightart

Oh beans, I hope this post works this time! Thanks to everyone who's supported my art so far!

I love your zest, Ogrim

Just a bunch of circus bugs 🎪 (I know that like none of these characters would join the Grimm troupe probably but hey! What if they did!)

God tamer is the animal trainer, Hornet is an acrobat, Hollow and Ghost do a dagger throwing act, and Ogrim as the human uh, bug cannonball!

Hello folks, and happy one year anniversary of Pale Court!

We're incredibly happy with how well received the mod was. We even got fans wanting to contribute to the translations! We went from the initial English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and French to also include Russian and Japanese— and heads up! Chinese and Korean translations are also in the making, and should be added on the next update.

Unfortunately, the year didn't go by completely devoid of issues; due to personal actions by Gauthier (Pharloom's musician), we have decided to remove the tracks he contributed to the mod, which will be replaced by new ones in the next patch.

Now, we'd like to give a shout-out to a few creatives that did pretty cool things about the mod, starting with vegathron and his deep dive into the inner workings of the mod's charms

And so much more! Too many to add to a single Tumblr post, so we encourage checking out the pale court tag and our server's highlights! You can join our discord server to get updates and share with other fans of the mod here:

Hollow Knight Anniversary!!! Eyyy!!!!

I’ve always loved the Five great knights and the pale court, just imagining what they did before the fall of Hallownest is so cool. Also “Pale Court” is one of the best songs in the hk soundtrack, fight me. (Tis below GO LISTEN TO IT, ITS SO GOOD)

Below is the og drawing with no fancy filter btw.
