Artorius (King Arthur)

Basics:
King Arthur is a legendary British leader who, according to medieval histories and romances, led the defense of Britain against the Saxon invaders in the early 6th century. According to me, King Arthur rocks.

Pros:
Has amazing strength (see sword-pulling prowess)
5 words: Knights. of. the. Round. Table.
Um, he's king, people.
Is the stuff legends are made of
You get to live at Camelot

Cons:
Highly doubtful that he showers much
Will never believe that you & Lancelot are "just friends"
Always has that pesky Merlin to deal with
Is long deceased, if he ever lived

Basics:
According to Wikipedia, Henry VIII (1491–1547) was King of England and Lord of Ireland, later King of Ireland and claimant to the Kingdom of France, from April 21, 1509, until his death. Henry was the second monarch of the House of Tudor and a significant figure in the history of the English monarchy, separating the Anglican Church from Roman authority and establishing the English monarch as the Supreme Head of the Church of England. Henry also oversaw the legal union of England and Wales.

Pros:
King. of. England.
Accomplished author, poet, and musician
Skilled hunter and athlete
