'''Mud Knights''' were [[Zarok]]'s soldiers who died at the [[Battle of Gallowmere]] in 1286. Over a hundred years later, Zarok's magic reanimated their corpses and made them roam around the [[Pools Of The Ancient Dead|sunken battlefield]].

==Characteristics==
===Appearance===
The knights are slender men wearing rusted armour with a beaked helmet design reminiscent of [[wikipedia:Plague doctor costume|plague doctor masks]]. They are armed with shields and battleaxes.

==Gameplay==
===Strategy===
Mud Knights appear in the Pools Of the Ancient Dead level, where they usually rise from pools of mud. They attack by throwing axes at Sir Dan from a distance. In the original game and the remake, they cannot be drowned in the mud, but it is possible to drown them in ''[[MediEvil: Resurrection]]''. It is usually best to kill them using ranged weapons, especially if they are in the mud.

In the ''MediEvil'' remake, Mud Knights are also summoned by [[Lord Kardok]] in [[Zarok's Lair]].

In pre-alpha versions of the game, killing the knights awarded the player with 200 [[points]]. Additionally, as seen in one of the game's early trailers, the knights would have been encountered in the cut [[The Muddy Riverbank|Muddy Riverbank]] level. However, they are not present in the level nor the level data in the ''[[MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha]]'' yet, likely due to the level's unfinished state in the build.
