The Halcyon Knights are a race of robot warriors of the empire of the Halcyon worlds.
Their government is a meritocracy where warriors compete with each other and rise up the ranks until one of them is deemed worthy by the Halcyon Emperor to become his successor to the throne.
History[]
When Coop accidentally destroyed the Flame of Azeroth, their sacred treasure, the emperor issued a challenge to the robots who were competing to claim his throne: bring him the robot who destroyed the flame to face judgment. They chased after the group (many willing to kill each other or work together for the prize) and Zanzor brought Megas back first and was named emperor. He tried to execute Megas for destroying the flame, but luckily, Coop broke free and destroyed Zanzor. The rest of the robots fought him and suddenly, Coop activated Megas' flame hands. This function led the knights to believe that he was part of a fabled legend and Megas was named emperor of the Halcyon worlds. Coop re-ignited the sacred Flame in gratitude, but it started burning everything in its path.
When Guyven saw that humanoids were inside Megas (Coop, Kiva and Jamie), they tried to destroy Megas out of disgust for organic beings. Coop decided to escape and fled Halcyon before it blew up.
It's unknown whether they survived or died from the explosion.
