Prince Nuada Silverlance, son of King Balor and heir to the throne of Bethmoora.
The character, Prince Nuada Silverlance, portrayed in Hellboy II: The Golden Army by actor Luke Goss triggered various reactions from the audience: some hating him, some loving him, but very few remaining unmoved in one way or the other.
Thousands of fan videos, artwork and fan fictions have been created in his name. Even five years after the release of the film, this following for the character is still going strong.
