“The old way? Like...on a horse? I miss that. ”
—Shale to Kairominas[1]
Shale is a Machineborn knight living in Alornia, and best friend of Emperor Kairominas. He is happily married to Sindria, and has five children.
Appearance and Personality[edit]
Shale's appearance and personality are heavily influenced by his Concept, the dashing knight on horseback. As such, he often wears full plate armor, even while lounging, and loves action and adventure. He's grown bored during the 50 years of peace that the State's unification brought, and prefers doing things "the old way," such as traveling on horseback rather than using Kai's flying platforms. Shale also enjoys joking around, often participating in banter with Kai or Besk.[1]
Attributes and Abilities[edit]
Having served as Kai's bodyguard for many years and going on many adventures, Shale is a very experienced swordsman. Though his skills are never truly shown, his past accomplishments speak to his level of expertise.
