Lloyd was a character suffering from
severe Trope Overdose, and that is why I think he's the iconic
character for his player. Being originally based off the Chaste Hero, he came to live and breathe heroic tropes. It's rare to see those characters done really well, but
Lloyd definitely pulled it off – though, of course,
much of his kindness stemmed from the fact that he was far too naïve to even
realize he'd been wronged most of the time.
Lloyd was the Prince of Britannia,
hidden away by his father (the Crown Prince) in a small rural village
to grow up an ordinary boy. At the age of fifteen, he left his home
against his father's will to join Eisenkrone Academy, to wield his
extraordinary powers in service of the world. His adventures in just
the first year at the academy are too numerous to recount, but after
just a year and a half he had mastered the elements of Air, Water and
Earth, with only Fire remaining. Lloyd may
yet see a chance to master this last element – we haven't
definitely ended the story of Eisenkrone Academy – and if he does,
he will have to master his powers quickly. Inner Lloyd, his
mysterious alter ego, is growing in power – and he is every bit as
evil as Regular Lloyd is good.
Lloyd's most iconic moment, I think, is
his greatest tragedy. His father, Walt, knew that his son was in
danger at Eisenkrone, and travelled there to bring him home. Just as
he arrived, the school was attacked by ultra-nationalistic
terrorists, and Walt Wilder died defending his son. Only then did
Lloyd learn who he truly was – Lloyd Pendragon, Prince of
Britannia.
