The White Knight
The White Knight was an IS that appeared shortly after Infinite Stratos was revealed.
Characteristics
It is Close Quarters Combat unit with designs that mirror the ByakuShiki in its delpoyed form. The unit is covered in platinum armor resembling a medieval knight (thus earning the nickname "White Knight"), and has a helmet-styled Hyper Sensor prototype with visor to protect the pilot's identity. The White Knight was made with Core Number 001. It disappear after the war and until now have not resurface.
1st Shift / Armaments & Abilities
Weapon wise, it has a giant broad-sword that took down 1221 missles, and a large charged particle gun to destroy the remaining missles.
As for its abilities, what is known is that it has an energy barrier to handle all the modern day weaponry and is capable of travelling at supersonic speeds that could make jet fighter pilots pass out (the G-forces incurred are way more than they can handle).
History
When an unknown hacker hacked multiple millitary computers to send 2341 missles to Japan ( most likely Tabane Shinonono as noted by Chifuyu Orimura), the White Knight appeared and neutralised the threat. Soon the other countries sent out their armies to try and capture or destroy the unit, only to have them bested by a single unit. The White Knight would then disappear from the world, never to be seen again, while leaving behind a legacy that came to be called the "White Knight Incident", causinging the entire world to impose laws about the usage of IS.
Trivia
- The White Knight was the 1st IS.
- The White Knight's pilot was Chifuyu Orimura, as comfirmed in the light novels.
- When Ichika is injured and dreaming, he is visited by a warrior woman in the White Knight IS, who offers him the power to continue to fight, which is supposedly Byakushiki's power, implying that they are the same.
