The Prince of Swords is clothed all in blues. His helment & ornate shield are golden as is the clasp on his cape. He looks to be shirtless, but wears long pants & shoes. His steed wears a golden ornate face plate with "horns" coming out from the center. The horns curl back like a goat's. It looks to me like they're charging dowhhill - you can't see the horse's front hooves. He has his sword drawn & raised ready to take on whatever comes his way.
Whoa, Mr. Intensity! The Prince of Swords reminds me of a bird of prey with his meal in his sights. I think he goes out "loaded for bear" because it doesn't occur to him he can accomplish his goals in a more subtle manner. Sometimes diplomacy is a better way to go as opposed to just automatically going in for the kill. I see him as the type to show off his intellect. He doesn't realize it's sometimes best to keep your greatest weapon in reserve for when you really need it - don't tip your hand - take them by surprise.
In more leisurely times, when he's not involved in a battle of the wits, I'll bet his mind is just swimming with all kinds of ideas for the betterment of his family & tribe. He could be a young "mad scientist" & get very caught up in his own head.
