[This one may be a little different from the others. For starters, it's a man in full armor sitting on the step of a porch, holding a rather large glass of tea. ...Or, rather, either that's a massive glass or he's not the tallest guy on the block. His shovel lay propped against the porch rail, spade still dotted with a couple of stray fallen leaves.]

Greetings, fellow imPorts! I am Shovel Knight of lands far from here, but it appears my services are needed here. 'Tis not often that one can add 'world-jumping' to their list of life accomplishments, yet here I am nevertheless!

I look forward to the tasks that will be placed before us, and will work to the best of my ability to see them through!

...Though, a question: How might I best hone these new skills bestowed upon me? I find myself able to move earth both with and without my shovel. To make stones dance is entertaining, but I feel I can do more with... w-with it.

[He placed a hand over his chest after that small hiccup. Then, he turned his head to address someone off-camera:]

Madam... what is in this sweet tea?

["Oh, just some bourbon, honey! It's my mama's recipe." The knight turned back to his drink, and is contemplatively silent, until-]

Hmh. So I thought. How many of these have I had...?

Of course! I'll also be 100% sober! I'm eager to see your capabilities.

You got it! I'll knock your socks off. [ wait. ] Do you even wear socks?

[ rose, asking the real questions. ]

Of course I do! We knights would wind up with... very sorry-looking legs otherwise!

Armor also likes to pinch, so lining underneath to cover as much of the body as possible is an absolute!

[ rose laughs in response to the idea of a bunch of knights walking around with their legs all pinched up. ]

So what day do you wanna hang out, Sir Shovel Knight?
