Guinevere[1], also known as Princess Prin-Prin[2][3], or simply the Princess[4], is the helpless damsel whom Arthur saves time and time again in each successive installment in the Ghosts 'n Goblins series. She has an extremely powerful magic ring in her possession which is able to destroy the Demon Emperor Sardius.
In Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins, she is the last human on earth with royal blood in her veins, and the reason she is being kidnapped is made much clearer. Apparently, she is to be impregnated by a demon, thereby giving the Demon Realm control over the monarchy.
Other appearances
Outside of the Ghosts 'n Goblins games, the Princess has appeared in Street Fighter × All Capcom and cameos as a Heroes & Heralds card in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3.
