Knight (Final Fantasy III)

The Knight is a job class in Final Fantasy III, both the NES original, and the Nintendo DS remake. It is gained from the Fire Crystal.

NES version:

 * Special Ability - Cover

The Knight will automatically take physical attacks for any allies in critical status. If the Knight has used Defend, he will still only suffer 1 damage.

DS version

 * Special Ability - White Magic Levels 1, Guard

The Knight can now use basic White Magic, just like a Paladin, as well as still taking hits for allies in critical condition. The Guard command substitutes for the Defend command, which boosts the Knight's defense for a turn, based on their job level.
