Solomon, Jepthath, and Arthur: The Three Kings!

MWTX busted these three out in only nine days! Pretty amazing, and I love how they came out!

Please be aware that this post contains spoilers for up to Part 150 of Cryopod Refresh. You've been warned.

The Knowledge-Seeker: King Solomon.

King Solomon is the king with the most focus in early Cryopod. Jason first learns of Solomon's existence when he obtains Solomon's Crown, a divine artifact with the ability to store and retrieve infinite amounts of information. The Crown is perfect for Jason, a Wordsmith, who requires detailed knowledge to summon and create objects with his Wordsmithing.

Solomon himself is a mysterious ancient Hero. First written about in the Bible, he fought the demon hordes using brilliant wisdom given to him by the gods. His heroic powers mostly involve the manipulation of information, including his ability to copy the memories of anyone he touches. While his human brain might have limited storage space, by wearing his crown, he was able to store the memories of those he came into contact with inside of the divine artifact.

Little is known of Solomon's life, other than that he suffered a huge loss when Satan deceived him and invaded Jerusalem. Solomon's family members were slaughtered, and the Knowledge-Seeker only barely managed to drive the demons out. This left a huge scar on his mind and taught him the folly of negotiating with the enemy. In Solomon's opinion, the demons are impossible to bargain with. Anyone who tries will inevitably fail.

The One Who Weeps: Jepthath the Shepherd.

Jepthath is the first Hero, the original progenitor of the Heroic Aura. As of part 150, little is known of his origins, his powers, and much of anything else. More details will be revealed as Cryopod progresses.

The Greatest Sinner: Arthur, The Legendary Hero-King.

King Arthur is an updated and revised character from Cryopod Classic. His arc from that part of the story will continue to be preserved, but he has received many improvements and refinements as well.

Known as the Legendary Hero-King, Arthur is considered the mightiest of all heroes who have ever lived. His divine artifact, Excalibur, is the only weapon capable of unleashing his full power. Arthur, like Joan of Arc, was a master of Holy Energy. His mana reserves were said to be bottomless, allowing him to fire incredible planet-devastating blasts to rip apart both friend and foe.

However, as the Greatest Sinner, Arthur spent his last years wringing his hands over the guilt he felt. He committed many sins, all of which weighed heavily on his heart. Readers who read Cryopod Classic already know what those were, but I will not spell them out here.

Arthur's powers include summoning divine weapons, using his aura to shield himself from any attack, firing blasts of Holy Energy from Excalibur, and many more. His signature move, Instant Transmission, allows him to appear and disappear at lightspeed, catching his enemies offguard and affording him the instant kill move.

Incidentally, there's also Joan of Arc, who will eventually have a much more interesting set of artwork made for her as well.

The next character MWTX will be Yama. Who is Yama? Well, if you've read Cryopod Classic, you'll remember him immediately. If not... well... spoilers! He will be patron-only, until his appearance in the story.

Thanks for reading, guys!
