The Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog is an Irish/American television series set in a fantasy version of ancient Ireland, created by Saban Entertainment. It was loosely based on actual Irish mythology. The name derives from Tír na nÓg , one of the Otherworlds of Irish mythology. It was Saban's first fantasy series to involve knights,dragons, and wizards. It aired on the Fox Kids block on Fox from September 1, 1998 and ending on May 7, 1999. A second season entitled Mystic Knights: Battle Thunder was planned, but was later cancelled, and its budget was put towards Power Rangers Lost Galaxy. The resulting series was an attempt in doing an original non-Japanese special-effects series rather than adapting from actual Japanese tokusatsu.
Long ago, oceans away on a mystical island, lived Queen Maeve of Temra. Maeve wanted to rule the land of her birth, the peaceful kingdom of Kells. She therefore called upon the dark fairy Mider, who gave her the mystical Rune Stone that allowed Maeve to use sorcery, most often to summon mystical, dangerous creatures like ogres and evil giants, whom she sent to destroy Kells. King Conchobar of Kells heared of Maeve's evil plan and sought a way to protect his kingdom and people. Rohan, a druid's apprentice discovered an ancient scroll telling of a legendary warrior called Draganta who would save that kingdom. Because Rohan's birthmark matched a prominent sign on the scroll, the King sent Rohan on the quest to find Draganta, with his friend the reformed thief Angus. The two were joined by the foreign Prince Ivar, and the king's daughter, Princess Deirdre, who followed them. They are drawn to the realm of Tir Na Nog, ruled by the fairy King, Fin Varra. Fin Varra put the group through various tests to determine their worthiness, which they eventually passed. King Fin Varra gave them another section of the ancient scroll, and mystical weapons which give control of the Classical Elements Fire, Air, Earth, and Water. The four young warriors battled the four Sentinels of Terma, who guarded elemental armor, and defeat them, earning the title Mystic Knights (Rohan became the Mystic Knight of Fire, Angus Earth, Ivar Water, and Deirdre Air).
Deirdre is the intensely independent daughter of King Conchobar. Her indignant air makes her seem haughty and stubborn, yet she is also capable of great kindness. Deirdre has an intense desire to learn, and expand her horizons by becoming the most able ruler she can possibly be. Deirdre refuses to let any barrier stand between her and victory, and this determination is what led her to joining the pilgrimage to Tir Na Nog with Rohan, Angus, and Ivar.
To win her white and gold Mystic Armor, she had to defeat the Lightning Bat of Temra. To don her armor, she shouts "Air above me!". Deirdre is the most logical-minded of the Mystic Knights, and is therefore sometimes frustrated by her companions' foibles.
