The Fisher King
He is the last of the distinguished family line of guardians of the Holy Grail. But he was wounded.

His impotence affected the fertility of his land, reducing it to a barren wasteland. All he could do was fish in the river near his castle and wait for the elusive “chosen one” who could heal him.
