"To Be Deprived Of The Use Of One's Limbs Is Of Little Help To One In Carrying Out The Work Of Government.

does anyone want my dissection of lepromatous leprosy (the type baldwin iv had)?

i am a huge nerd for diseases and such and i also want to put forth what i believe he may have looked like in life and how his leprosy wouldve affected him :)

at the risk of sounding mean doesnt anyone else think that he looked fucking disproportionate in this scene or is it just me 😭😭😭

he looks so silly

Something tells me he would

"Let it be known to all, both future and present, that I, Baldwin, by the grace of God, in the city of Jerusalem, holy to the Latins, give or grant to you Joscelinus, my uncle, my seneschal, or to your heirs; count, a thousand byzanci to the chain of Accon, to receive annually the customary boundaries of the chain, and to possess a certain cottage, called Jescu, situated in the mountains of Accon, with all its appurtenances, by right of inheritance, except that Alemanding the same Jesse and half of his appurtenances as a dowry, but all after his the teaching shall return to your heirs.

Now I have given you the following omaia in exchange for Maron, which I had previously given to you with all its appurtenances or cottages, on the condition that for all these you shall do the same service to me as my heirs and your heirs, which you were obliged to do for Maron before, with the exception of the assizes, which are in the tower of Maroni.

I grant you a certain house near the New Castle, which you bought from Johanne Bogalet, the scribe of El Bisautia, to whom the house itself was previously owned. I give and grant to you and to your heirs John Drugemannus of Castello Novi with all his estates, things and possessions which he inherited from me.

21t therefore the page of this donation or grant of mine, granted to you and to your heirs, is to be sealed in perpetuity, and I commanded that the undissolved charter be protected by the witnesses undersigned with my seal. His witnesses are Guido Joppes and the count of Ascalon: Aimericus constable: Balduious do Vholin: Balianus his brother: Caufridus Tortus; Cotsvinus Boccus William de Molombocca. Given to Accon by the hand of Cuillelm, archbishop and king's chancellor of Zurensis, the 13th kal.

April"

- Baldwin IV (confirmed by @trobairitzdedia)

(thank you!)

this escaped the vault im sorry

Kingdom of Heaven but Baldwin is just wearing this the entire time:

Your favorite KoH character besides Baldwin? 😁

Short answer, Sybilla, long answer, Sybilla and/or Guy.

I know Guy is a bad.. guy, HOWEVER i absolutely love how they played so much into how *evil* he could be and made him look so comically villianous which managed to make me laugh with how well they played it up, they gave him one of the only french accents in the film and made him talk all smug-like in contrast to more of the normal acting characters, (besides Balian, who is a complete stereotype while also having the personality equivalent of flour).

Sybilla, shes pretty and a somewhat complex female character and one of the only women characters we see who pull the plot forward, while she is widely inaccurate in terms of sleeping with balian and going against Guy and them having this weird conflict which is far from the historical reality, i absolutely love her outfits and i could fix her indefinitely
