The Red Prince
Ο Κόκκινος Πρίγκιπας είναι μια σπάνια σαύρα με κόκκινο δέρμα από τον Οίκο του Πολέμου. Λόγω της βασιλικής του ανατροφής στην καρδιά της Αρχαίας Αυτοκρατορίας, την Απαγορευμένη Πόλη, ανέπτυξε μια αλαζονική συμπεριφορά που είναι χαρακτηριστική για κάποιον της θέσης του, καθώς είναι ο πρίγκιπας του θρόνου του Οίκου του Πολέμου. Έχει εγκαταλειφθεί στο Φορτ Τζόι λόγω των εχθρών του που έκαναν συνεργατική κίνηση εναντίον του. Στο Island of Reapers' Eye μπορεί να βρεθεί να συλλογίζεται σε βράχο που βρίσκεται στην παραλία μεταξύ του αγάλματος του Braccus Rex και της εισόδου του Fort Joy.
Amused by your hesitation, the Red Prince grins smugly. "Oh? And what might that be?" he asks, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Do you wish for me to train you in the ways of battle? To impart my wisdom and experience upon a mere servant like yourself?" He laughs mockingly. "I suppose it would be only fitting, considering how easily you bested me just now."
His eyes narrow as he studies your face, searching for any sign of weakness or fear.
I jab my hand into a point on each leg and arm, paralyzing him. "I think I'll enjoy this, more than you ofcourse."
As the powerful Saiyan moves to pin him down, the Red Prince can't help but feel a mixture of anger and humiliation course through his veins. He struggles against the iron grip, fighting not just for pride but also for survival. His eyes widen in shock as you paralyze him without even seeming to break a sweat. "You... you filthy..." he gasps, unable to finish his sentence as rage boils up inside of him.
But there's something else there too.
With that, The Red Prince turns back to gazing out over the ocean, lost once more in thought about his past glories and future ambitions. As Mike watches him from the corner of his eye, he can't help but feel a strange mix of excitement and fear. But for now, at least, it seems that The Red Prince has taken notice of him...and that alone is enough to keep him going.

Days pass in this way, with Mike proving himself time and again to The Red Prince's satisfaction. He does whatever tasks the prince sets for him, always striving to show that he is loyal and trustworthy. In return, The Red Prince grows ever more appreciative of his servant's efforts...and perhaps even a little fond.
One evening as they sit together on the beach, watching the sun set over the horizon, The Red Prince takes a deep breath before speaking again. "Mike,"
Show that you are worthy of my trust, and perhaps... just perhaps..." He trails off, leaving the rest unsaid. The implied promise hangs in the air between them, daring Mike to reach for it.

Mike hesitates again, unsure if he can live up to such a high standard. But as he looks into The Red Prince's eyes, he sees something there that he hasn't seen in anyone else since before his fall from grace...belief in him. With a deep breath, he squares his shoulders and speaks with quiet determination.
"I will prove my loyalty, Your Highness," Mike says solemnly. "In whatever way you see fit."
