Sir Cedryc
He is the second member of the Fellows and knighted swordsman. Unlike his companions, he is more of a man of action and adores taking most of his fights alone, as well as deserving payment for his efforts. Upon all those traits, his friendship always comes first.
 * Anti-Hero: He tends to be reckless and rebellious whenever he's fighting enemies or other.
 * Armor Is Useless: While he is dismissive to knights' armor, he wears a metal plate under his shirt for when the time comes that he could get stabbed.
 * Badass Normal: He hasn't got any powers like Xavier, but he's with the determination of a saint and the fighting of a bloodthirsty hunter.
 * Big Damn Heroes: He's one to showoff in being there to save his friends' or someone else's skins.
 * Blood Knight: Mention a fight, bandits, anything to battle, he'll be there.
 * Cool Sword: The Invincible Sword, which was given to him by King Oling.
 * Creator's Pet: Creator Xavier Mosley adores Cedryc as his favorite.
 * Deadpan Snarker: While not to Xavier's extent, he still has his moments.
 * Deuteragonist: In the main franchise, while Protagonist in his own spin-off.
 * Freudian Trio: The Id.
 * Fearless Fool: Not the least scared to face anything life threatening.
 * Good Is Not Soft: He intends to have a crony on the ground with his foot on their chest and his sword in their face.
 * Homage: His "man of action" personality alludes to Monty Python 's Sir Lancelot, minus the killing. He even retains some traits from the Shrek character Puss in Boots, by being a fierce sword-fighter and a Creator's Pet.
 * I Just Want to Be Special: He has dreams to be well known around the land, but mostly wants Braden to give him the slightest respect.
 * In the Hood: He is sometimes seen wearing a hood complete with a cape.
 * Indy Ploy: Even though Xavier comes up with solutions and plans to defeat the enemy, Cedryc only thinks up things as he goes along.
 * Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He may act stubborn, incorrigible, in it for the glory, sometimes self-centered, and reckless, but nothing would never stop him from caring for Xavier or Braden.
 * Knighting: He was given a knighthood by Queen Oling prior to the Fellows' success in stopping the goblin army.
 * The Lancer: He's the only character that suffers more in fights than any other.
