The '''Prince of Cannock''' (サマルトリアの王子 ''Prince of Samaltria'') is a playable character in ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'', and 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 after the [[Hero (Dragon Quest II)|Prince of Midenhall]].  He also has a sister who's the [[Princess of Cannock]].
The '''Prince of [[Cannock]]''' is one of the main characters of {{Dragon Quest II}}.


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.
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 2}}. He also has a sister who is the [[Princess of Cannock]].


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.
The Prince of [[Cannock]]'s abilities are a mix between both of his [[Luminaries|cousins]], the {{Prince of Midenhall}} and the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]]. Though he is physically strong, he is weaker than the Prince of Midenhall and cannot equip as many weapons and armour as him. He is capable of using magic, although 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 [[Hero]]es of the series.


==Appearance and Personality==
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 regularly appears in spinoff games alongside his two cousins.
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 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.
==Appearance and personality==
Of the three titular [[Luminaries]] of the legendary line, the Prince of [[Cannock]] falls in the middle 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]].


Later in the game in all versions besides the NES original, the prince becomes ill after staying at the inn in [[Beran]]. The other heroes can travel to a small island with a single tree tile upon it and retrieve a [[Yggdrasil Leaf]] in order to cure him and continue adventuring, or may leave him behind. Doing such only slightly affects the edning of the game, where the prince's dialogue bemoans how awful his luck is.
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. Later versions are loyal to the Japanese script and refer to the Prince in the same way.

The Prince of [[Cannock]] sets out to aid his cousin, the Prince of Midenhall, when word of the sacking of Moonbrooke castle reaches him. Unfortunately, the Prince does not stay in one place for long and leads the player on a wild goose chase until meeting up with him at the inn of Leftwyne.

The Prince of Cannock is one of the main characters of Dragon Quest II.

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 Prince of Midenhall and the Princess of Moonbrooke. Though he is physically strong, he is weaker than the Prince of Midenhall and cannot equip as many weapons and armour as him. He is capable of using magic, although 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 regularly appears in spinoff games alongside his two cousins.

Appearance and personality[edit | edit source]

Of the three titular Luminaries of the legendary line, the Prince of Cannock falls in the middle 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. Later versions are loyal to the Japanese script and refer to the Prince in the same way.

Appearances[edit | edit source]

Dragon Quest II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line[edit | edit source]

The Prince of Cannock sets out to aid his cousin, the Prince of Midenhall, when word of the sacking of Moonbrooke castle reaches him. Unfortunately, the Prince does not stay in one place for long and leads the player on a wild goose chase until meeting up with him at the inn of Leftwyne.

Later in the game in all versions besides the NES original, the prince becomes ill after staying at the inn in Beran. The other heroes can travel to a small island with a single tree tile upon it and retrieve a Yggdrasil leaf in order to cure him and continue adventuring, or may leave him behind. Doing such only slightly affects the ending of the game, where the prince's dialogue bemoans how awful his luck is.

When fighting Hargon, he should be wearing: Magic armour, the Iron spear or Falcon sword, and the Shield of strength. In remake versions of the game, he has access to a wider variety of equipment, such as Erdrick's Sword and the Aurora blade.
