Kind Edvard the 2nd of Atmaris, the medieval kingdom in the north of the great forgotten continent of Emway.

He was known as a great ruler, unequalled in battle and loved by all his denizens. His time of ruling from the 83rd year of the second era to the 31st year of the third era is hailed as a time of the greatest prosperity that the kingdom of Atmaris has ever known.

His coat of arms is that of his father, King Edvard the Elder. A white lion on a field of red.

Skin was mostly based off memory about things I've seen of medieval times and knights and such. Mebbe a bit of influence from Chivalry: Medieval Warfare too. Didn't have a reference picture.

I figured I wanted to make somebody with armour as I'm practicing making armour for my pack so this was another opportunity to practice. Making him a king was just something to make it stand out from all the other knights. Hope you guys enjoy it!

The Bull represents an Ancient Torture device, named "The Brazen Bull", or "The Sicilian Bull". It was originally designed in Greece by Perillos of Athens. The bull was made entirely of bronze, hollow, with a door in one side.  The bull was in the form and size of an actual bull and had an acoustic apparatus that converted screams into the sound of a bull. The condemned were locked in the device, and a fire was set under it, heating the metal until the person inside roasted to death. So it was more than just a "Bull".

You did a very good job making a remake that was original. Taking your own spin and twisting it around. Great job!

Thanks! I'm glad people are enjoying the changes I made in order to make it more original too, that was the main thing that was bugging me before. (and the fact I used so many colours)

I'm much happier with the new version. :)
