Definition
Cowardly, craven, or having surrendered or given up; a term historically used in medieval contexts for someone who yields.
Etymology
From Old French 'creant' (defeated, craven) derived from Latin 'credentia' and Vulgar Latin 'credere' meaning to believe or give way. Initially meant 'having lost faith' in oneself, then evolved to mean cowardly or defeated.
Kelly Says
Medieval knights would call an opponent 'creant' when challenging them to combat—it's literally what you'd yell if someone tried to back down from a duel without honor.
