Warrior Prince: Difference between revisions

Line 134:

* Another female example: Princess Zelda is shown in such a capacity in the flashback sequence of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess]]''.

* King Mickey, he can save your ass in the hard boss battles, and is basically [[Expy|the Yoda]] of the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' series.

* King Cailan of ''[[Dragon Age]]'' fits this trope. He's particularly eager to battle the darkspawn, and you never see him out of his [[Bling of War|massive suit of GOLD battle armour]]. {{spoiler|It doesn't go well for him.}}

* King Cailan of ''[[Dragon Age]]'' fits this trope. He's particularly eager to battle the darkspawn, and you never see him out of his [[Bling of War|massive suit of GOLD battle armour]]. {{spoiler|It doesn't go well for him. Although to be fair Cailan lasted almost as long in the battle as Duncan did, and Duncan was one of the most legendary warriors on the continent.}}

** {{spoiler|Then there's his half-brother Alistair, your fellow Grey Warden. Since he's a party member he's ~~considerably~~ ~~better~~ at it. If you take the Dwarven Noble Origin, you are technically an example too.}}

** {{spoiler|Then there's his half-brother Alistair, your fellow Grey Warden. Since he's a party member he gets to actually live through it. If you take the Dwarven Noble Origin, you are technically an example too.}}

* Prince Ariona Allant, aka Ostrava, from ''[[Demon's Souls]]'' counts, but it's stretched a bit as he needs rescuing two of the three times you meet him in the Boletarian Palace.

* Arthas Menethil, Prince of Lordaeron in ''[[Warcraft]] III'', until his [[Face Heel Turn]]. Kael'thas Sunstrider, Prince of Quel'thalas (although he uses magic) in ''Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne''. Varian Wrynn, King of Stormwind in ''[[World of Warcraft]]''.

** {{spoiler|[[Doomed Protagonist|Prince]] [[A Father to His Men|Liam]] [[Badass|Greymane]]}} is this in the ''Cataclysm'' expansion.

** Jayne Proudmoore for a female example, as she is the daughter of Admiral ~~Daelin~~ Proudmoore, the late ruler of the nation of Kul Tiras, even though she also uses magic.

** Jayne Proudmoore for a female example, as she is the daughter of Admiral cailan Proudmoore, the late ruler of the nation of Kul Tiras, even though she also uses magic.

* Bart from ''[[Xenogears]]'' appears to be a pirate, but is really a prince in hiding.

* In ''[[Total War]]'', as your generals are all members of your royal family, this is commonplace.

Line 147:

* In ''[[Golden Sun: Dark Dawn]]'', Prince Amiti of Ayuthay [[Invoked Trope|becomes an adventurer and joins your party]] in hopes that the [[Lampshade Hanging|experience will make him]] [[The Wise Prince|a wiser prince]]. It works; he goes from [[The Ingenue|painfully naiive]] to being [[Character Development|much more understanding]], and [[Magic Knight|kicks some ass along the way]].

* King Graham in [[King's Quest]], justified in the fact that he was a knight before becoming king. Alexander may also count - although he's not really one for physical confrontation or battle, he's still accomplished some pretty badass feats, including quickly mastering many magical spells and ''riding Death's horse into the land of the dead''.
