Knight record

Oliver

Prologue mercy, the education choice and Oliver’s repaired rewind recruitment.

Last updated: Patch context: v1.1.0

An overworked Angelorian scholar-knight whose availability depends on an early mercy choice.

Prologue mercy and the later audience

The opening personality sequence includes an attacking Knight before Oliver is named. Choose the mercy or escape outcome that leaves him alive. When he returns as a candidate, invite him to work at the Round Table rather than calling the guards.

The community route places that candidacy around Cycle 19. Treat it as timing from the documented run, not a promise that every modified timeline has the same audience day. The early walkthrough preserves the relevant opening choice.

Raider King's roster lists Overworked, Angelorian and Office Worker. Wits and Agility are his stronger starting values. Scouting and Magic Involved are favourable categories; Duel and Hunt are dislikes.

Overworked can make long assignments less attractive even though Office Worker is associated with additional funds from work. Compare the full job rather than dispatching him solely because the payout looks high.

Studies and romance

The first-heart scene discusses Imperial work, unpaid overtime and his part in the opening attack. The second reveals unfinished Great Academy studies in applied arcanism and offensive magic.

Reassure him that he is already a good Knight without the degreeA kind response, but closes that education arc in the route account.

No verified universal study fee or mandatory 20-Scholars gate is established here. The important documented choice is offering the opportunity rather than inventing an extra faction threshold.

Show Oliver route spoilers

The education route leads into magical theory and his Magic Degree; the community profile reports a +8 Magic change. Keep the starting sheet separate from that changed state.

The romance conversation discusses rest, work culture and the power imbalance between Sovereign and Knight. The final choice can end the relationship as unreasonable or explicitly accept it despite those institutional rules. Follow that commitment rather than treating the degree as automatic romance completion.

See romance options for the partner list and reports about overlapping relationships.

What 1.0.10 repaired

The official 1.0.10 announcement fixes Oliver failing to join after being killed in an earlier run and spared in a later one.

Accordingly, an old missing-candidacy report does not establish “kill him once and lose him forever.” Check the current timeline's mercy decision and the installed patch before drawing that conclusion. The Demon Power guide explains other corrected rewind-state issues.

If recruitment or the third heart is missing

For recruitment, check whether the attacker survived in the timeline you are pursuing and whether the later work invitation was accepted. For the third-heart education path, revisit the actual answer about his diploma: a reassuring alternative is not the same branch.

Keep a save before that education choice if both outcomes matter. Return to all Knights to compare recruits or endings for how the final roster relates to character slides.
