Henry IV took the throne from Richard II, a coup that was the end of a struggle between the two Englishmen. Not surprisingly, there were revlots and rebellions a-plenty, as well as assassination attempts on the new king's life. This atmosphere carried over into the reign of Henry V. The most famous attempt at assassinating the king was to occur in 1415, at Southampton, where Henry V was planning to stop before his trip to France.

Note: This card was never printed. The final version from the design team has been spoiled to players on the Anachronism forums. There's no telling whether or not this card will be printed, and if it were, that it'd have the same text as the spoiled version.
As is, one will notice missing elements, since the card hasn't been finished. There's no artist or flavor text; card names and ability titles are English, rather than Old English.
