Barton, Shovel Knight: King of Cards

Barton is a minor character in King of Cards, and an Adventurer with a knack for finding treasures.

Appearance[]

Barton shares the same appearance and portrait as regular Adventurer horsemen. Whenever horse people like Barton are supposed to have hands or hooves has been fairly inconsistent between sprites and original artworks, but it has been confirmed that at least Percy, a fellow horse person, is supposed to have hands.[1]

Story[]

King of Cards[]

At the start of the Volcanic Vault "Barton: The Lost City is a scrounger's paradise, all right. But I'm so saddled with loot that I can't climb out!
Tell you what. If I share my best plunder, maybe we can both gallop out of here?
"
Refusing to pay "Barton: Afraid of a little rockslide, eh? Well, come around when you stirrup some confidence, partner!"
After Buying the Scorching Saber "Barton: Meet me on the other side.
Oh!
And you can't Shoulder Bash in here. Use the Scorching Saber I just give ya!
"
At the end of the stage "Barton: Ah, topside air! Horses and caves never mixed well.... That yer airship? Mind if I... hitch a ride?"
First time talked to aboard the Glidewing "Barton: Ah,
the life!
Thanks again for your help; I've got more gold than I can carry, so let me kick ya some!
"
Talked to again "Barton: Hoof on heart, I love playin' Joustus! You up for a round?"
Accepting his duel of Joustus "Barton: The best Joustus player I'm not.. Nay, I don't even care if I win! I can afford to max out my cards!"
