Thanks. Wanted to go for something original, and I don't recall ever seeing a knightly, fey-themed villian anywhere yet.

A detective? Sounds like your character couldn't have a clearer motive to investigate Yellowsash's death.
Considering his death could possibly be magical in nature, I can see how that suspicion could lead your guy to mine...

Considering its from space and yours are generally hellish, I don't think so. But maybe.

We already know it's from space? Damn, that kinda takes away the mystery.
Anyhow, I wouldn't consider fey to be hellish or demonic in nature. I'm thinking more along the lines of how it's portrayed in Berserk. Naturistic and chaotic, and morally gray.

So while Ranger is neutral evil, Shade is neutral good, and knight is either lawful neutral or true neutral.

If we're using those simplistic alignments, then I'd consider Fey-Knight to be neutral evil. He is after all a villain actively seeking the death of his archnemesis, the hero Archmagus.

Can we make his archenemy one of the preexisting heroes instead, like Dr. Wyrd or something?

Can't find much on him in your dispatch, but if he's also a magic-themed superhero, then yeah I guess.
Note that my original intention is for Fey-Knight's nemesis to be struck down during a fight with the former, like Yellowsash, placing Fey-Knight into a brief existential crisis until he decides to repurpose himself to discover what's causing the mysterious deaths, or to stop whatever turns out to be behind them. Is that still possible even if it's this Wyrd fellow?

Wyrd isn't male. Way to assume gender kiddo.
"Dr. Wyrd II (Jasmine Wyrdman): The daughter of the original Dr. Weird, she inherited her father’s talent for magic but none of his responsibility. She used her powers to place herself in a life of luxury. When one of her father’s old enemies, Shaitan the Terrible, destroyed her home and life by framing her for murder, she fell into a rage and tracked down the villain and killed him. The IFA caught her and she was cleared of the original charges. However, the murder of Shaitan was still on her conscience. While he was a creature from another plane and she could not be persecuted for his death, she still felt responsible. Pulling Shaitan’s soul from the other side, she bound him to her, where he will mock her until she has performed 10000 acts of penance."

That's not the kind of archnemesis I'd envisioned for Fey-Knight. I was thinking something along the lines of Doctor Strange or Doctor Fate: a noble magic-user with great spirit, not an emotional murderous wreck.

She fulfills the Dr. strange role in this world. She isn't an emotional wreck anymore: she accepted responsibility for her actions and is trying to make up for her sins.

I suppose she'll do fine then, if we can still have her mysteriously stricken down, otherwise my guy won't have much reason to associate himself with the heroes.
Unless, of course, the villains of our tale can work together with whatever's doing the striking.

The force is not just killing heroes...it's killing anyone that could be considered powerful, villains included.

Things with power. Also, this is what Dr. Wyrd sort of looks like: http://orig13.deviantart.net/5160/f/201 ... 4z7vi6.jpg

Cool. I'll write an introductory post soon, then. You trust me with controlling some side characters every now and then?

Your post... It started off so good then turned really dark.
By the way how do you think Knight would react to Ranger, what would he think of him?
