Castle

Lion Knight, also known as Sir Roderick, is a recurring character in the TV series Castle. He is introduced as a dedicated participant in Renaissance fairs, known for his authentic attire, weaponry, and commitment to his role.

Behind the costume, Lion Knight is revealed to be a man named Ernie. He possesses extensive knowledge of medieval history and combat techniques, contributing significantly to several Castle and Beckett investigations. His expertise proves invaluable when cases involve Renaissance fair settings, historical reenactments, or individuals with a fascination for medieval culture.

While initially presented as somewhat eccentric, Ernie/Lion Knight demonstrates a grounded and helpful nature. He consistently assists the NYPD with his unique skillset and provides insights into the minds of perpetrators who share his passion for the medieval era. His character is ultimately a blend of historical enthusiast and surprisingly effective crime-solving consultant.
