Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin features the Dark Knight job, which is one of the Final Fantasy series recurring jobs. Stranger of Paradise is a retelling of FF1, but the Dark Knight job didn't exist in that game. There was a character named Leon in FF2 who could be described as a dark knight, but the job didn't properly debut until FF3.

Cecil eventually leaves the Dark Knight class behind and becomes a Paladin. The recurring theme of the job is that it sacrifices its HP to temporarily increase its power, a variation of which continues to this day, with the FF14 version of the Dark Knight job.
