Spiral Warden is an NPC.
Contents
Description
Spiral Wardens are specially-equipped knights who stand guard outside the towns of Cradle.
Spiral Wardens are stationed at every town established by Spiral Knights. They act as guardians and - in the depths of the Clockworks - are responsible for preventing inexperienced knights from venturing deeper than they should. Heavily armoured, they are an imposing sight at the entrance to the subtowns of Moorcroft Manor and Emberlight, and even Haven itself.
In their role as gatekeepers, Spiral Wardens are also stationed at the Hall of Heroes with Lieutenant Barrus.
A Spiral Warden is posted at the depth 23 Clockwork Terminal, as the Shadow Lairs are accessible from there. However, this Warden's role is a passive one, informing knights rather than restricting them.
Spiral Wardens are similar in appearance to Trojans, with equine helms and massive cobalt armor reflecting their Guardian role. Spiral Wardens stationed below Emberlight are still equipped with the Mighty Cobalt Armor.
Tier access
Upon reaching a subtown, knights will encounter a Spiral Warden guarding the entrance to the town and next Tier. In order to pass, a knight must have a Star Certification corresponding to the minimum recommended star value of that Tier.
The Spiral Warden stands before a coloured force field. If a knight has not yet been granted access to that Tier, the force field will be red and prevent any passage; when granted access, the force field will be blue and provide no obstacle.
In order to pass through Moorcroft Manor, a knight must have 2-Star Certification, and a Spiral Warden will not allow knights into Emberlight if they do not have a 4-star Certification or higher.
If the Spiral Warden denies a knight access to a subtown, they must return to Haven. Knights can speak with the Spiral Warden to find out what they need to achieve in order to be granted access.
History
Spiral Wardens were once responsible for granting "Tier clearance" to knights, depending upon a number of difference experience-based requirements. Tier access now depends on Star Clearance, which is awarded by Lieutenant Barrus.
While they have always carried Leviathan Blades, Spiral Wardens formerly wore a unique set of gear similar to the Azure Guardian Helm and Mighty Cobalt Armor with a distinct tabard. The shield carried was no less than an Aegis.
Known Wardens
Only Spiral Warden Virgil, on guard north of the Rescue Camp, is known by name. He warns new recruits about the danger ahead, and while there are no restrictions upon recruits, Virgil effectively guards the only available entrance to the Clockworks.
Notes
This character has been in the game since ???.
Despite their original model being removed from the game, if you go to depth 23 and see the Shadow Lair lobby, the Warden is in his original armor.
