— Maiden, Shovel Knight: Shovel of Hope |
Maidens are minor characters in Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove. They walk around the Village and Armor Outpost.
Appearance[]
Maidens appear as bipedal female horses wearing a dress and a matched necklace. Whenever horse people, like the Maidens, 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[]
Shovel of Hope[]
In Shovel of Hope, Maidens can be found wandering in the Village and Armor Outpost.
A Maiden appears in the ending with the rest of the Village, watching the end of the Tower of Fate. The same Maiden can also be seen wooed by Propeller Knight aboard the Flying Machine.
Plague of Shadows[]
In Plague of Shadows, Maidens can be found at the Village but are scared off by Plague Knight. One of them flees aboard the Aerial Anvil after Plague Knight's invasion of the Armor outpost.
In the ending again, a Maiden is among the Village's crowd watching the Tower of Fate crumbling down.
