Although Brian Kent was the rightful ruler of his father's kingdom, Bane put him in training as a knight to keep the lad out of his hair. One day Kent discovered a suit of armor in the Forest Perilous, and donned it to battle against the forces of corruption in his kingdom. He became the Silent Knight, never speaking lest someone discover his secret identity. The Silent Knight had a long and prosperous career, and fought alongside King Arthur on occasion.
