Demon Knights are keepers of the key. The Demon Knight is to protect the Key from evil.
History[]
Following the creation of Earth by God, there were demons in the darkness who used seven keys to focus the power of the cosmos into their hands. When discovered, God created light that scattered the demons and the keys across the universe. The demons spend millennia scouring the universe for the keys. They collect six, and discover the last one on earth. The artifact that Brayker holds is the last key they need to reclaim power and bring back the darkness. In order to protect it, God had a thief named Sirach fill the artifact with the blood of Jesus Christ at the crucifixion, which is what creates the seals that repel the demons and prevents them from touching it. The guardians of the key, immortal while holding it, have since been passing it on, refilling it with their own blood when they die. They wander the world, protecting the key from evil, until the stars on their hand begin to move, directing them toward their final destiny.
The Demon Knight's hand has seven stars. Once align as a circle, the Demon Knight will battle the demons in one full night. Seven people must fight alongside with the Demon Knight to survive the night. The last survivor will become the new Demon Knight.
