Knights of the Zodiac

The Knights are the 88 Warriors of Athena. They fight wearing armor called “Cloths” of different power and endurance according to the rank of the specific Knight; their design derives from the constellation that a Knight is born under. Athena's Knights are divided into three different classes: Gold Saints, Silver Saints and Bronze Saints wearing Gold Cloths, Silver Cloths and Bronze Cloths respectively.

The Bronze Saints are the lowest class of Knights, Silver Saints are the middle class and Gold Saints represent the elite and are considerably stronger than the other two ranks. Despite these categories, it's not impossible to have a lower rank Saint that is indeed as strong as a Gold Saint or stronger; one of the main rules is: "The power of a Saint is not related to the Cloth he wears but to his Cosmo".

There exist 12 Gold Saints, 24 Silver Saints and 48 Bronze Saints, but also 4 fabled Saints that wears an unknown type of Cloth, but few is known about them.
