Cocteau the Thrice Blessed

Prince Cocteau is the ruler of the Isle of the Beast, and is a noble and fair man. Nearly one hundred years ago, he (in his words) rankled one too many an evil hag and was transformed through the work of magic into a ferocious beast, a perverse parody of his original form. The spell could only be broken by the true of love of a maiden.

In KQ6, Alexander finds Cocteau (a.k.a. Beast) a love named Beauty and they live happily ever after (or so it seems...) It is known, however, that Beast will make at the very least a cameo appearance with his wife in KQ9.
