Arslan

Arslan (アルスラーン) is the main protagonist of The Heroic Legend of Arslan and a playable character in Arslan: The Warriors of Legend. The prince lived a sheltered life until his first battle, which resulted in the king's imprisonment and his home capital conquered. Determined to restore his kingdom's glory and mature into a worthy ruler, Arslan evades capture with the hopes of raising an army that can liberate his home. He mainly struggles against the Lusitanian army and Silvermask.

Personality
Arslan is the complete opposite of the war-mongering king and the cold-hearted queen. He is a modest, gentle, and compassionate youth who disapproves his kingdom's slavery and tyranny. He took to book quicker than sword and held a feeble grasp on his royal status. Once he is exposed to war and his kingdom's flaws, Arslan considers his future responsibilities thoroughly. The prince admits to his inexperience but gains a strong resolve to improve for the sake of his people.

Trivia
