The '''Prince of Cannock''' is a character in the {{DQSeries}} that appears as a playable party member in {{DQ2}}. He is one of three descendents of [[Erdrick]] who journeys to defeat [[Hargon]] after his attack on [[Moonbrooke]], and is the second playable character added to the party. He also has a sister who is the [[Princess of Cannock]].


The Prince of Cannock's abilities are a mix between both of his cousins, the [[Hero (Dragon Quest II)|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 terms of statistics and spell choices, the Prince of Cannock has more in common with the other Heroes of the series.

Upon learning of the tragedy that befell Moonbrooke, the Prince of Cannock set out on a journey, first travelling to the [[Wellspring of the Hero]].  Later, he met the Prince of Midenhall at the inn in [[Leftwyne]], where the two cousins joined forces and began travelling together.

He is shorter than the Prince of Midenhall, but taller than the Princess of Moonbrooke. 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 chest and an orange cape attached over black clothes. 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 shield with a red jewel in the middle and wields a [[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 reffered 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.
