Takendown is a strong-hearted Knight who is always happy to help out a Knight of lower rank. He first appeared at the [[Rescue Camp]] on the 14th of July 2011 and has been roaming the [[Clockworks]] ever since. Takendown started off slowly, aquiring any weapon that seemed better than  the [[Proto Sword]]. He first went from the [[Proto Sword]] to the [[Beast Basher]] which he got from the Swords Merchant for 250 crowns. It took Takendown quite a while to start to figure out prices for each item, depending on what Star they are.

Who Am I?

I'm a Tier 3 Knight who first crash-landed here on Cradle on June 14th when word got around to new recruits that Spiral Knights had come to Steam offering a Spiral Sallet hat for Team Fortress 2 ((Even though the in-game art appears to be a Mighty Cobalt Helm >.>). Of course, I took up on this offer but then simply became hooked to my surroundings on Cradle.

Okay, away from the in-game lore I simply started playing Spiral Knights, an amazing game created by Three Rings, not only to receive the Spiral Sallet, but simply because I was attraced to the launch trailer I watched when it arrived on the Steam Platform. Out of honesty, Spiral Knights still remains to be the best MMO game I've played out of all the others. It simply is... Different in a sense. No other compares to it. You won't find something as unique as Spiral Knights is.

What also makes Spiral Knights a great game is that it comes coupled with in-game History and facts people didn't know about Spiral Knights (in-game lore) which I seem to know a lot about due to research into Three Rings, Spiral Knights History and what actually caused the Skylark to crash. Of course, this research is done out of interest and I'll be more than happy to explain things you want to know about Spiral Knights (I do so with members of the guild Cradle since I feel it is right they know something about why my guild is called Cradle, and what Cradle holds.

If you see me in-game, don't be shy to say hello. I like meeting new Knights.

Takendown: Starting Out As A Young Knight

Yes, we were all there once. Even me. I remember starting out in Spiral Knights, crossing the chasm heading towards Haven. We all remember that day. But, obviously, I didn't start out wearing Skolver... Or Nameless... Or the Almirian Crusader you all probably see me wearing today. No, I started out just like any other knight, wearing the birthday suit that is known as the Spiral Sallet and Spiral Culet. Scrolling through my library of Spiral Knights Screenshots, I was able to dig up the earliest screenshot of me. Weren't I cute?

The first ever screenshot of Takendown. Note: He was wearing Wolver and the Spiral Culet and Sallet as a costume.

Even back then I was a soloist. That's how I pretty much am right now, 'till this day. I do everything solo. Vanaduke, sure. Jelly King and others? Definitely. I even soloed the whole of Missions, only getting help from one of them which, sadly, was the Roarmulus Twins (only because the RT is my least favourite boss. I didn't know how to work the switches. Thanks, Kellnox!)

Gear and Loadouts

TakendownSkolver.png This here is my first and common Skolver Loadout. Many people usually see me in this loadout when I'm playing Lockdown or just auctioning outside of the Auction House.
