Orlando Bloom arrives in King Of Avalon with a blockbuster storyline that now is part of the lore of the medieval strategy game. The new hero once was a famed and respected knight, until the Unmelted appeared – evil creatures who have brought frost and terror to Avalon. One day when traveling alone, Orlando was attacked by a horde and, while trying to fight them off, Orlando's right hand was struck by a cursed ice blade. Without hesitation, Orlando cut off his hand but the curse of that wound was more powerful than he thought, turning him into a half-Unmelted state. When Orlando returned home, he discovered his Unmelted traces spurred fear and hatred in people in Avalon so he became an outcast, heading to Dragonsholm City to find out how the Lord of this ancient land might receive a knight marked by the Unmelted.

"We are honored to be welcoming a star with the talent and global reach of Orlando Bloom to the King Of Avalon universe" said Chris Petrovic, Chief Business Officer of FunPlus. "The team has done an amazing job shaping this character and developing a tailored story that King Of Avalon fans will love.
