The 3rd Edition sourcebook Lords of Darkness mentions the Twilight Knight briefly on page 42, 48 and 51. He is said to be an enforcer and one of the Court of Nightmasters; that is, one of Orbakh's four dukes.
That sourcebook lists the Duke of Twilight as a vampire Paladin 9, Blackguard 5.
Hope this helps. |
Look for me and my content at EN World (user name: sanishiver). |

I'm not aware of prior references to this guy, or of him being named anywhere.
He's also on pages 53-4 of Cloak & Dagger, but that source says that only Orlakh II knows his true identity. |

I may have schemes in the making on this point. Stand by!

Gosh! I should expect it: an ex-paladin of Lathander turns into a twilight vampire...  |

Heh. Though I'll say it loud and say it proud: "My vampires don't sparkle."

In my defense, I wrote up those vampires long before I'd heard of the Twilight books ... back when "twilight" was still a cool word. :-) |

Oh no worries, sir! If you ask me, "Twilight" is still a cool word.
Speaking of, I'd like to run some "Night Masks of Westgate" lore past you if you'd welcome it. Would you prefer PMs or email?

Email is always good. ericlboyd@aol.com
Happy to talk Westgate. I spent many hours trying to untangle it when we were designing C&D, pouring through the last Alias novel.
Posted this recently in another thread ... just in case you hadn't seen it ...

One of my first Hooks in the Candlekeep Compendium was about a Lathanderite paladin and vampire hunter, who became a vampire... He wanted to go back to his home temple to be laid to rest by his colleagues. |
