Of the | Of the four titular [[luminaries]] of the legendary line, the Prince of [[Cannock]] falls in the second-tallest in terms of height. In the Japanese box art and all other versions of the game, the prince has shaggy orange hair and wears a green tabard with [[Erdrick]]'s crest on the front and an orange cape attached over a form-fitting black jumpsuit. He also wears green gloves and boots, as well as a pair of goggles on his head. In the American box art for the {{NES}} version of the game, he is still wearing the odd goggles on his head, but his tunic has been replaced with a full suit of green armor. The Prince is also seen carrying a green/black shield with a red jewel in the middle and wields a nondescript [[rapier]]. | ||
In the Japanese version, the Prince is described as a slacker, a drinker, and an overall really fun guy; however, in the {{NES}} American version the Prince of [[Cannock]] is described as a studious young man immersed in his studies. This is presumably due to the heavy censorship [[Nintendo]] of America enforced during the late 80s and early 90s. Later versions are loyal to the Japanese script and refer to the Prince in the same way. | In the Japanese version, the Prince is described as a slacker, a drinker, and an overall really fun guy; however, in the {{NES}} American version the Prince of [[Cannock]] is described as a studious young man immersed in his studies.
