The Wings of Darkness Darkwing (闇の翼ダークウイング, Yami no Tsubasa Dāku Uingu) is the Contract Monster of Kamen Rider Knight.
History
Kamen Rider Ryuki
Darkwing, along with every other Mirror Monster was created by Yui's and Shiro's pictures during their childhood.
It is shown that Darkwing was initially used in one of Shiro's initial experiments and is assumed to be the Mirror Monster responsible for Eri going into a coma. Multiple times throughout the series, Darkwing acted as though it was targeting Eri. Each time Ren shooed it away. Most of the time however, it was there simply to assist Ren in battle. Followed by Knight's transformation into Survive Mode, Darkwing as well transforms into Darkraider.
It is unknown what happened to Darkwing but considering Mirror World didn't exist after the final Time Vent, it can be assumed that it didn't exist.
It is notable for being one of the Contract Monsters that can be summoned without using an Advent, just like Dragreder.

Despite this however, for most of the time however, it was there simply to assist Ren in battle.
Whenever Darkwing was summoned, it will support Knight for aerial combat by grabbing into his back as it acted as the Rider's wing and brings Kamen Rider Knight's Wing Lancer to him when a Sword Vent Card is activated. From its mouth, the Dark Bill (ダークビル, Dāku Biru) Darkwing can unleash a painful ultrasonic screech whenever the Nasty Vent Card scanned.

With Ren's gain of a Survive Card, it allowed Knight access to Survive Form and hence, allowed Darkwing to evolve into Wings of Gales Darkraider (疾風の翼ダークレイダー, Shippū no Tsubasa Dākureidā), which is a much more powerful bat, with its AP upgraded to 6000. This equipped Darkraider with wind turbine under his wings that could blow other Riders away.
- Roles in Advent Cards attacks
- Blast Vent: Darkraider executes Dark Tornado (ダークトルネード, Dāku Torunēdo). Darkraider launching two tornadoes from a turbine each from his wings to blow away an opponent.
After Knight Survive used the Final Vent Card, Darkraider transforms into a motorbike with Knight Survive riding it. In this form, Darkraider is a Honda Shadow bike with bat motif designs.
- Roles in Advent Cards attacks
- Final Vent: Performs Shippudan (疾風断, Shippūdan). As Darkraider assumes it's motorcycle form, Knight Survive rides Darkraider as it paralyzes the monster with a laser attack and then turns into a missile to run through their opponent.
