Richard Beauchamp (リチャード・ビーチャム) is an English nobleman and general who served three generations of English royalty. He subdued revolts for Henry IV, served in many campaigns under Henry V, and tutored Henry VI. His actions for the royal crown were largely responsible for renewing their wars with France.

Role in Game

Richard is introduced as a mercenary in Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War who is always working alongside Hal.

Bladestorm: Nightmare

Bladestorm: Nightmare has him appear in Île-de-France as one of the player's enemies. If Hal encounters him during the battle, Richard will be appalled enough to attack the warrior three times. Once the misunderstanding has been cleared up, he and the other English officers willingly join the player's quest to eliminate the monster army ravaging the land.

In Champagne, Richard volunteers to assist Hal's assault on the monsters to protect their escaping allies. The onslaught proves too much for them, though the vassal proudly expresses his lord's newfound altruism before dying. If recruited by the player beforehand, he is able to avoid this fate by heeding Hal's plea not to join him and instead live on his memory.

Character Information

Personality

He is gentle-hearted man who calmly obeys Hal's commands despite the latter's tendency to act recklessly.
