The Enchantress

Of all the monsters roaming Shovel Knight’s world, none are as dangerous as the Enchantress. Cold, brilliant, and pulsing with vile power, the Enchantress is a preternatural force. Her Order of No Quarter carries out her will with ruthless might, although her origins remain shrouded in mystery. With a loyal army under her command, she is more than a match for a solitary knight with a lowly shovel... or so she assumes! The Enchantress is a tall green-skinned woman wearing a black robe with purple shoulder pads. On her head is black horns with pink stripes and a pink amulet gem on her forehead. The Enchantress is a cunning, cruel and wicked witch queen, wanting to conquer thr Valley. She is shown to be impatient and won't tolerate her subordinates' failures. Long ago, an amulet falling from the sky landed in the Valley, containing within an evil spirit who, with nothing to bind it, was quick to wreak havoc. Soon enough, a hero rose and, with the Omega Driver itself, as well as the six Stones of Fate, bested the fiend and sealed it away in a room on the top floor of Tower of Fate. Furthermore, the room and its above treasure vault, were detached from the tower, and embedded into the planet's Crystal Core as another precaution, even adding a hidden locking mechanism to block the way to the amulet. The only traces left of the monster were the Liquid Samurai, left alone to guard the dark fortress itself, as nothing more than an extension of her immense malevolent power and will.

At some point, the thief Drill Knight and his Hexcavators, while holed up in the Tower of Fate, learned of the existence of a supposedly "great weapon" and, wishing to obtain riches and fame from acquiring it, began plotting a big heist. So they excavated a gigantic Well in order to reach the detached treasure vault; having learned of their importance, they'd to first need to steal the six Stones of Fate all over the valley, one of which was owned by none other than Shovel Knight. So Drill Knight ambushed Shovel Knight and took his Gemstone along with his hard earned loot, in the process also making a surface entrance to his Well.

By using the Stones as supporters for the hole, the Hexcavators dug deeper, unaware of the dark magic tainting the Gemstones manipulating their actions from the shadows, subtly spurring them to dig deeper and deeper. Meanwhile, the Tower had begun to sink into the earth, and the Valley quickly became plagued with earthquakes. Shovel Knight, who not only wanted to retrieve his bag but also had guessed that some sinister plot was at play, caught up to them, but he was too late: during his fight with Drill Knight, he used the Omega Driver, disabling the Omega Saw and accidentally revealing a secret opening Drill Knight was not aware of, which opened up due to Shovel Knight possessing all six Stones of Fate. After making their way through the Crystal Core, Shovel Knight and the Hexcavators found the amulet's chamber, with the artifact cocooned in dark magic tentacles. Drill Knight violently broke this last seal and the artifact, now free, did little to keep The Enchantress trapped inside, releasing her in a monstrous ghostly form into the world once more. As Drill Knight realized that she was, in fact, the weapon they were searching for, she commanded the group to kneel and serve as her minions, to which they refused. As they got ready to fight her, she easily trapped them in the stones and transformed their leader into a giant monster, which Shovel Knight was forced to defeat.

With the monstrous Drill Knight defeated, The Enchantress was once again trapped in the amulet. However, without the gemstones, which were keeping the Well stable, the hole started to collapse and the Tower of Fate, which in the meantime had sunk into the ground all the way to the Crystal Core, began to re-emerge to the surface, the treasure vault and amulet chamber now reattached to the original building top floor once again, forcing the group to a hasty retreat.

So, with no time to destroy the amulet at the moment, they agreed to return to the Tower of Fate at another time, and end the amulet before anyone decides to use it for any intentions be it good or otherwise.

Later, Shovel Knight and Shield Knight would later return to the Tower of Fate to destroy the amulet for once and for all. During that, Shield Knight have gone ahead of Shovel Knight because the latter is busy dealing with the Liquid Samurais. When Shield Knight reached the chamber with the amulet, she encountered other 2 adventurers known as Luan and Donovan who wants the amulet for themselves. Shield Knight battled them, which resulted on Luan and Donovan falling to their deaths. This causes the amulet to let out The Enchantress, who then possessed Shield Knight; the dark witch then tracked down the dying Donovan, and proposed to extend his life if he became her servant and tracked down knights for her Order of No Quarter. Having no other choice, he accepted and was transformed into the undead Specter Knight. Meanwhile, Shovel Knight was knocked out by Shield Knight's transformation and expelled from the Tower, which then sealed itself from outside interference. The loss of Shield Knight caused Shovel Knight to become depressed and lived as a farmer at his hometown.

Around that time, The Enchantress manipulated a pompous knight named King Knight, who wanted to be a king, to be her subordinate. She told him that if he joined her order of knights, she'll grant him a kingdom of his own. Hearing this, King Knight decided to betray his friends and join the Order of No Quarter.

After this, the Enchantress made herself public to the Valley and began her conquest of taking over the Valley with her Order of No Quarter. Shovel Knight, knowing that the Tower of Fate has opened again, decided to go on a journey once more to defeat the Enchantress and reunite with Shield Knight.

When Shovel Knight reached the Enchantress's throne room, Shovel Knight knows that Shield Knight is still in there and tries to convince the Enchantress about this. The Enchantress refused to hear it, so thet have a big battle. The battled ended with Shovel Knight shattering the amulet, turning the Enchantress back to Shield Knight. However, the evil spirit inside the amulet released itself and manifested as a beast known as Remnant of Fate, forcing the knight duo to fight it. After thet defeated it, the Remnant of Fate fired some of its final attacks to Shovel Knight, making him unconscious. Shield Knight was able to block off some of its attack before it disappears with Black Knight taking Shovel Knight to safety. After the Tower of Fate collapses and the Remnant of Fate vanished from existence, Shield Knight reunites with Shovel Knight in a campfire. The Enchantress is very skilled with dark magic, being able to levitate, teleport, shoot dark fireballs, create flaming platforms and turn people into their monstrous selves. </Power and Abilities>
