The Grand Campaign

Black Knight, Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn

Project Begnion is a grassroots campaign by the fans to create hype and fan appeal for the inclusion of the Black Knight, Zelgius of Calidor, in the upcoming Nintendo all-star fighting game Super Smash Bros. 4, recently announced for the Wii U and 3DS.

The Black Knight appeared in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance for Nintendo Gamecube, as well as it's sequel Radiant Dawn for Nintendo Wii. Starring as the primary antagonist, the Black Knight was the eternal rival of Brawl newcomer, Ike.

Through this campaign, we can accomplish several things, the most direct being the arrival of Black Knight as a newcomer to Super Smash Bros 4, where he will join the likes of Marth and Ike as Fire Emblem characters. But there is more to it than just playability: The more widespread acceptance of Fire Emblem as a premiere gaming series. As a whole, Fire Emblem is highly underrated in the eyes of the gaming community, the addition of a new character, specifically the Black Knight who offers a change in tone from the light fanciful swordplay of Marth, and the light features of Brawl's Ike. With the support of Black Knight specifically, this may press Intelligent Systems and Nintendo to continue the often rumored Tellius series with a third game.

And so, an adventure begins. We hope you'll come with us.
