"I'm Baldwin IV of Jerusalem (Latin: Balduinus, French: Baudouin) (1161–1185) I'm known as the Leper King, I was the king of Jerusalem, from 1178 until my death in 1185. I was admired by my contemporaries and later historians for my willpower and dedication to the Latin Kingdom in the face of debilitating leprosy. Choosing competent advisers, I ruled a thriving crusader state and succeeded in protecting it from the Muslim ruler Saladin."
