19:18 He's actually just The Knight. The Hollow knight is the "final boss"

[@Supuri_]

But technically The Knight Is The True Hollow Knight or The true Pure vessel because the Boss 'The Hollow Knight' Wasnt truly hollow, because of a father and son relationship he gained with the Pale King. But Yes, The official name of our protagonist is 'The Knight'

[@Naokarma]

And even then, The Knight is mainly just the easiest descriptor, not an official name.

Shade's Dad here. For mods, I would absolutely get the mods "Unread Books Glow SSE 221" - "Immersive Citizens AI Overhaul", "Hearthfire Display Cases Fix SSE", "Flower Girls SSE", "Dragon Claw Stands", "Bijin War Maidens", "Barenziah Quest Markers", "Lakeview Manor Library Displays", and "Ice Penguin World Map". Go for Stealth Kills. If you try to be a tank, you'll get busted up a lot. Stealth Killers are the best. :) Only use melee if they get up close. Works best for Vampires. Be sure to explore a LOT. Don't just do the story line. As you explore, you level up and the main story will be a little easier. Stormcloaks and Empire SUCK. Be independent. Also makes yourself more anonymous throughout the game. Concentrate your home base at Lakeview Manor. Best House in the game.
