“ Arrghh! You severely try my patience! I will remove you yet! ”

— The Snake, after a failed attack

Duc Beauregard (more commonly known as "The Snake") is an antagonist in the Stronghold series, and one of the AI opponents in Stronghold Crusader.

The Snake is a greedy and mischievous character, who uses diplomacy and mischief to deceive his adversaries into favorable agreements for himself. As much as he loves gold, he prefers to employ the least demanding armies to exert his control, which makes him vulnerable to a prepared enemy.
