Portrait for Olivier the wise! I imagined he'd have lots of scars from trying to fix Roland's mess (and fighting Fierabras)
And Here are the 12 PALADINS! Thank you all for your support on this series! I still have a few portrait to make and side characters to draw but i'm really happy i could bring some light on some relatively obscure french lore! And who knows, might make a comic about them someday!
For the longest time in french tradition "Ganelon" was considered the most heinous and archetypal representation of treachery, His name itself becoming an insult. Even in Dantes inferno ganelon is at the bottom of hell in cocytus for what is considered the greatest of sins.
12th PALADIN Ganelon the Traitor. An another nephew of Charlemagne, he's said to have led Roland and the paladins to their demise by plotting the fatal ambush of roncevaux... His holy sword was called Murgleis "Death brand" said to be the sharpest of all blades.
11th PALADIN. Huon of Bordeaux. Sent on a impossible quest by traitors, huon meets the king of fairies Oberon and obtains a cup that never runs out of wine for the pure hearted and a horn to summon Oberon and his army of elves and fairies. But he can only do so if he never lies.
10th PALADIN Otuel. Facing Charles, he insulted him urged him to give up his faith. During a duel against Roland a dove landed on Otuel's head, miraculously converting him instead. Later when another saracen insulted charles, Otuel chose to face him. His sword is called Corrouge.
