The Prince of Cannock (サマルトリア王子 Prince of Sumaltria) is a descendant of Erdrick who is a mix between both of his cousins, the Prince of Midenhall and the Princess of Moonbrooke. Though he is physically strong, he is weaker than the Prince of Midenhall, and while he can use magic, most of his spells are not as powerful as those available to the Princess of Moonbrooke. In the Japanese version, he is described as a slacker, a drinker and an overall really fun guy; however, in the American version the Prince of Cannock is not so much of a slacker as he is a studious young man immersed in his studies.
Upon learning of the tragedy that befell Moonbrooke, the Prince of Cannock set out on a journey, first travelling to the Spring of Bravery. Later, he met the Prince of Midenhall at the inn in Leftwyne, where the two cousins joined forces and began travelling together.
Appearance
He is shorter then the Prince of Midenhall, but taller then the Princess of Moonbrooke. In the Japanese version of the game the prince has orange hair and wears a green tunic with Erdrick's crest on the chest and a pair of goggles on his head. In the American 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.
Equipment
Note: This section requires expansion.
The Prince of Cannock can equip a wide variety of weapons and armor though not as many as the Prince of Midenhall, but when you fight Hargon, he should be wearing: Magic Armor, the Iron Spear or Falcon Sword, and The Shield of Strength.
