It seems Arandor had a golem; then either the abbot was blocked, or he used the status check, which also isn't displayed, right?
Regarding the Knight: maybe I didn't understand correctly, but why can't Zedzi, who was visited by a technomage and had his stats "spoiled," be a Knight? Although this doesn't quite fit with "he went to sleep" - maybe he just decided to get some rest before going to work. :)
