Also known as King Charles II

  • First seen · Book 1 · Ch. 2

He is introduced through the authority of a crown, a monarch whose name stands behind formal power and ceremony. The text gives little sense of the man himself, leaving the title to speak in his place.

Charles II appears as the king of England in references to the authority he granted the Lord Lyon to issue certificates of arms. The volume does not develop his personal life or relationships, presenting him chiefly as a source of royal power in matters of heraldry.

Description

The text identifies Charles II as an adult king of England but does not describe his appearance. His height, build, skin tone, hair, eyes, face, clothing, and demeanor are unspecified; a portrait should distinguish him by royal status without inventing physical traits.
