Hello, can you make one of what Baldwin would be like as a husband, boyfriend or during married life and as a father?
As a lover:
Baldwin IV already has very low expectations when it comes to love. You might also call it non existent
In case he has a crush on some one Baldwin IV would be quite about it and perhaps give prolonged glances to his crush.
Unless he gets a push or you don't approach him. The king will likely won't approach you as well preferring to stay in solitude not wanting to bring you in his "curse"
In case he gets a push to talk to you or you talk to him. Baldwin IV would be happily chanting with you. Trying anything and everything to prolong the conversation as long as he can, he will try not be obvious about his intention
Baldwin IV would reluctantly let you go once your conversation is over and will go back to how it was, so mainly as his s/o you has to take initiative to talk to him
Once you start getting close Baldwin IV would be very fond of your company. Which certainly won't go unnoticed by others and they will try taking advantage of it.
Baldwin IV would try to make time for you out of his tight schedule. Although leprosy has taken away his sensation he will still adore holding your hand or try trancing his fingers on your skin.
Baldwin IV believes he is unfavoured by God so he will have conflicting emotions about being in relationship on which he will confide in his s/o . Once assured Baldwin IV would be very grateful to finally have some one. Who loves him for who he is, doesn't judge him or use him for power. The king surrounded by ambitious people can be lonely at times
Being thrifty Baldwin IV will give expensive gifts to his s/o but upto limitation. His s/o being demanding will quickly turn him off.
He will certainly gift jewelry, dresses etc but his gifts will mainly be personal. Handwritten love letter with passionate declaration of his love for you. Baldwin IV will certainly cherish his s/o handwritten leters treasuring your declaration of love and keeping it safely
Whenever he feels lonely and you don't happen to be there, Baldwin IV will read your letters gently stroking your handwriting. He will also carry small gifts from you. When he leaves for battle or has to travel outside where you can't accompany him
Baldwin IV is aware that people wish to overthrow him and take away his crown so an ambitious s/o trying to find position in court won't won't be helpful. He might get paranoid that his s/o is using him for power or have others get him paranoid about his s/o
However, that doesn't mean Baldwin IV dislikes intelligent women. In fact he loves them. Baldwin IV would love to depend on his s/o about the matters of Kingdom and be his closest adviser but try not be ambitious about power.
Baldwin IV believing that he was cursed by God might feel guilty in being in relationship and will start having thoughts that his s/s deserves better. So he might try to push himself away or slowly form distance with you
You will have to very patient in relationship and be his biggest emotional support. Despite his attempts Baldwin IV will end up failing miserably. He can't see you upset after all. He thinks he is being selfish asking for your company but he can't help it
Baldwin IV loves hugs and kisses. You will find yourself often cuddling him or have him in your arms as he sadly talks about his duties and how he wishes he could retire and run away with you.
You both will often talk about "intelligent conversation". Baldwin IV absolutely adores learning lots of new things from his s/o.
Baldwin IV would love a s/o who would be dependent on him especially when it comes to physical strength. He loves feeling powerful and dominant one in relationship
Husband:
Baldwin IV would be absolutely be expected to marry someone in west or in Byzantine for aid
In case court agrees for him to marry someone else and Baldwin IV would have given up altogether about marrying a noble lady then he will marry you
As his wife Baldwin IV will feel even more open about showing his vulnerabilities. He is a strong commander defending his army but he will be a soft husband who cuddle you at night describing his insecurities and burden of his kingdom
Amount of declaration of love you will be getting would be limitless. He will constantly remind you of it day and night. Even send you handwritten letters about it
Since, he is married to you. His trust for you will be greater. He no longer worries about someone random women who might leave him. You are now married to him
Baldwin IV might ask you to accompany him to court meeting and even ask your decision regarding the matter. He might even ask you to join him in military campaign
However he mainly prefers you stay and protect the kingdom while he is out for military he will ask you you be regent for the kingdom while he defends it. You will maximum time command the kingdom and even when he is back you will certainly have strong influence on the decision on who gets to stay and who gets what position
Baldwin IV knows people hate you because of how much power you hold as his consort and won't take kindly to anyone talking ill about you. One complain from you will be enough for him to find someone and find an excuse to demote that person. After all an insult to you will be insult to him and Baldwin IV doesn't take well to disrespect
Baldwin IV would now openly gift you from whatever he gets from spoils of war
Both of you will often have books you both share with both of your initials with it
Baldwin IV loves hearing stories be it historical, literature etc. After war when he comes back he will be delighted to find his s/o waiting for him outside. Baldwin IV will go on fondly talking about his military expenditure
He will like talking about historical events or have his s/o talk about historical events or anything else informative and interesting
Baldwin IV would love to fight in your name and honour. He will often carry your favour with him. Your favour be it handkerchief or small personal item gives it immense strength. He will fight for his god, kingdom and you
You will often take care of his health. Many times personally participating as well. Baldwin IV will look at you with absolute adoration as you apply medicine and help him get better believing that God is finally showing him favour by winning war for him and by giving you to him. You will often find Baldwin IV often giving you an intense state while you take care of his wounds
Father (contains slight NSFW):
Baldwin IV really wanted a family with you
His nephew being sickly. He knew he might not survive for long after his death
With your patience and encouragement also with his health drastically improving he will believe in plans of God and have sex with you
His favourite position will be missionary and doggy style
He either gives orgasm denial or overstimulation since he loves you begging him. He loves when his s/o is absolutely submissive in bed moaning and begging him
In fact he loves your moan . Purposely stimulating you to moan and scream his name despite your embarrassment
He will never hurt you of course and will often be gentle but with your permission and can go super rough. You will end up wondering if this is the same man
Once you are pregnant Baldwin IV will over the moon. He will try to come off reserve but will easily give himself away
As a father he will be strict and expect obedience from his children
With his son he will more strict about his education since he will heir to the kingdom. With his daughter, although she will be educated he won't be as strict with her as he won't have much expectation. After all her main job is to marry and secure alliance.
He will absolutely gush about his children in private and public. Any children from you will be absolutely loved by him. He will strive to provide best for the children.
He won't take well if his kids or their mother are being ridiculed for being related to leper. As as result he ends up feeling guilty about starting his family and will end up confiding his s/o about it. He might also try to purposely marginalize the nobleman who dared to upset his family. You might end up intervening, Baldwin IV values your opinion a lot. So he will stop
He absolutely trust you about you taking care about everything including education about his children so he often doesn't intervene unless his s/o asks for it. You mainly need to ask what you need regarding children and he will provide without a second thought. Perhaps one or two questions but that's it
Baldwin IV would often take the main part of scolding the kids especially if they disrespect you or him
Overall he will try to be strict parent

Baldwin IV, the... Gamer King?
Something I've found interesting - and rather surprising, tbh - is the increasing number of games and game concepts in which Baldwin IV features, and not simply as inspiration for the characters' designs, but as himself.
Here's how many places I've found him and the accompanying artwork of him (all very obviously inspired by - you guessed it - Kingdom of Heaven)
==================
First, the actual games...
1) Evony: The King's Return
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This article from One Chilled Gamer gives the details on his statistics.
2) Blood of Steel
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You can find the details in this news announcement on the game's Steam hub.
3) European War 7: Medieval
Tumblr media
It's a little harder to find information on this one, but there's a discussion thread here on him.
==================
Baldwin also makes an appearance in the mods for several games, including...
Sid Meier's Civilization V
Tumblr media
This mod adds the Kingdom of Jerusalem as a civilization to the game, with Baldwin IV as its leader. There's info on him on this wiki page, including his war and peace themes ("The Holy Land" and "Siege of Kerak" from Crusader Kings 2, respectively.)
Sid Meier's Civilization VI
Tumblr media
This mod also adds the Kingdom of Jerusalem into the next game of the series, again with Baldwin IV as its leader.
Crusader Kings III
Tumblr media
This mod overhauls CK3 to allow the player to assume the role of any leader present in Kingdom of Heaven (as well as their contemporaries around Europe and Asia), including Baldwin IV - although you won't get to play as him for very long before his death.
==================
Finally, I've found some concept-style art of Baldwin floating around out there, too, although I'm not certain they are for an actual game or simply intended for a potential game if they happen to grab a developer's interest.
This one is by ShawnFox on Artstation:
Tumblr media
And this one is by XuanHan Chen, also on Artstation:
Tumblr media
==================
This is all I've personally been able to find so far, but there's probably more out there I've missed. If anyone has run across any other game-related art of Baldwin IV, please share!

Baldwin iv x fem!reader
-= imagine helping the leper king fall asleep =-
warning: leprosy ig
ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈
Baldwin IV, King of Jerusalem, retired to his chambers, utterly exhausted. The weight of ruling his kingdom was heavy on his shoulders, and his leprosy draining his energy away, leaving him pained and sore. His eyes were heavy, and he could feel his body weakening each passing moment.
As he entered the room, his queen, Y/N, rose from the bed to greet him, and helped ease him down onto the bed. She could see the exhaustion etched into his face, and without a word lifted of his mask. Gazing at him with an adoring stare she gently caressed his mottled face,careful not to draw out further pain.
She set to work cleaning his wounds. Baldwin let out a deep sigh of relief as she gently tended to his abused and broken body, applying salves and herbs. He felt a warmth spread through his chest as he was treated with an affection he never believed he deserved.As a leper he should left in the dregs of the world with the rest of the poor and pitiful outcasts of the world, should he not? But no, in this court he was loved. He was doted soon and cherished by the girl he got to call his queen.
As she worked, Baldwin felt his eyes closing, and before he knew it, he had drifted off to sleep against her soft chest. Feeling it rising a falling gently beneath him with each breath. He savoured this rare moment of peaceful life with her.He felt her hand stroking his hair, and he knew that he was safe and loved. It had been so long since he had truly slept.
Just as he finally drifted into a deep sleep, a guard burst into the room. Y/N could see the urgency in his eyes, but more importantly she knew that Baldwin had not slept in days. Whatever this was could wait .She gently shushed the guard and motioned for him to leave the room without waking her sleeping king.
The guard hesitated for a moment, but Y/N was firm, directing a piercing glare at him. She would not let anyone disturb Baldwin's much needed rest. The guard nodded in understanding and silently slipped out of the room, leaving Baldwin in peaceful slumber.
He would never show his hardships during the day- remaining stoic and strong, however here in her arms he was vulnerable and acquiescent as a lamb.
As the first light of dawn began to filter through the window, Baldwin began to stir. He opened his eyes and looked up at Y/N, a small smile playing at the corners of his mouth. She gazed down at him with her hazy eyes , only showing pure adoration.
"Thank you, my love," he said, his horse voice barely above a whisper.
Y/N smiled down at him, her heart aching. "Of course my king”.

I had this silly idea since Unicorns are also a symbol of nobility (they are my favorite creatures)
Why not give one to Baldwin?

Hello, I love how you write and the most beautiful narrative way. Could you do one of balwin taking care of his pregnant wife?
"Careful" Baldwin IV warned as he helped me get out of bed. My feet had swollen due to pregnancy. I felt embarassed by my own body. Baldwin IV noticing my discomfort kissed my forehead and said "Don't worry, you are beautiful". I couldn't help but doubt his words. "Does he even understand not only I have physical changes but emotional one as well". Ever since Baldwin IV learnt about my pregnancy he has treated me like piece of glass. He refused me to do any physical labour, even going as far as refusing me to leave bed. We had a huge fight about it. Baldwin IV kept on insisting that it's our first child. He was finally blessed by God to be father and Kingdom too will have heir. There was no way he is risking this opportunity. After lots of fight and request from my part Baldwin IV finally agreed however he insisted that I shift to his room and stay with him all time. In case I wish to leave the bed, I need to inform him so that he could escort me.
Baldwin IV carefully guided me to bathroom. As soon as we step in he closed the door and started striping me. I was staring myself in front of giant mirror. I was ashamed when I looked at my body again. I could see strech marks in my torso. My body had become fuller than before. I was in such a deep thought that I missed looked of adoration from my husband. It wasn't until he started started caressing my stomach that I finally noticed. Once I noticed and started staring back at him he smiled and kissed both of my cheeks. "You have made me happiest man alive" "Mon amour, never doubt my love for you" . "Come it's time to give you a bath". Baldwin IV ensured that I sat down for bath safely. He soon began filling my bath tub with warm water. Knowing how much I prefer it. I was still sad about everything. Could it be because of pregnancy? I couldn't help but feel anxious about future. Thoughts like "Will I be good mother?". "Will my husband still love me after my breast has become saggy and my hips and stomach covered in strech marks?"
"Mon amour, look at me" my husband called me in his commanding voice. Once I noticed him. Baldwin IV started stripping. I became shy and attempted to look elsewhere
"No, see it all before you look elsewhere" this time he was gentler while speaking to me. Hesitantly I looked back at him. I saw scars and disfigurement of his body. He soon took his pants off and now I couldn't help but lust after his body. Baldwin IV slowly walked where I was standing and said "See this is how I feel when I look at you" Baldwin IV laughed and said "No matter what, at least you will be better than leper". I was hurt knowing how insecure my husband is when it comes to his own body. Even though he is comfortable now he refuses to show his face preferring to hide it behind the veil instead
"Now you know how I feel" he replied and I grew quite. Baldwin IV went inside the bath tub with me and carefully hugged me from behind making me sit on his lap, squishing my boobs with his arms saying "Your pregnancy has made me want to have sex with you more"
" You look so beautiful while pregnant with my child but unfortunately we can't do that". "It hurts to see you looking at your self with disgust and being anxious about yourself". I couldn't help but cry a bit at his response. Baldwin IV wiped my tears and kissed my cheeks and pecked my lips. Once I was okay he took a mug filled with warm water and poured it over my head. I moaned in bliss and Baldwin IV started kissing my neck. He also washed my hair gently massaging my scalp and washed my body thoroughly with soap. Once we were done he helped me get dressed and took me to bed.
"Where are is all the food which I asked to be brought here" he shouted he angry. "Mon amour, please wait for a moment" he left the room angry. Soon bunch of maids came apologetic with food. I could here my husband mumbling angrily. He soon placed the food on the table and said "Now leave us come back after 30 minutes". Once they are gone Baldwin IV attempted to feed me with his hand. "We talked about this" I said in in anger. Baldwin IV replied back "I can't help it" "Fine feed yourself if you want"
"No, actually never mind". Baldwin IV gave me are you serious look before continuing once we were done. He said "The maids will come back again to take care of you in my absence " "Make sure to-"
"Yes, I remember don't go far away and no physical labour" "Now leave"
"Not before my good luck kiss" he leaned and kissed me before leaving for work. Once I was left alone the maids came it with jeweller. "My, lady" he bowed before continuing "His majesty the king has insisted to choose whatever you like and he will pay" I couldn't help but smile at his pampering . I felt immense joy to have such a caring husband and felt ridiculous to doubt his feelings towards me

Hey! Since you're taking requests, could you write something with a Baldwin IV x reader in which the reader is his mistress (or wife, it depends on you) and she's pregnant with his baby. I want some cute and heart warming moments 🥺
Hi. Thanks for the idea♡ hope you like it
[King baldwin iv x pregnant reader]
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
here you were,
massaging gently the top of your round and pregnant belly.
● Baldwin was the happiest man alive when he found out that you were pregnant. But this was the start of what you had never seen of him before. Overprotection.
● If you wanted to get your shoes, he'd bend over and place them on your feet, to avoid you flexing too much. He'd always get behind you as you walked down the stairs, would literally do anything to make your pregnancy easier.
● Even though his overprotection could be a bit vexing at times, it had more benefits than anything. Your feet were sore? He'd bring some soothing oils. ordering the maids to massage it on your feet. that your treatment was more important than his . You woke up craving something? He'd wake the entire castle and didn't let anyone rest until he got you what you craved.
You stared at the mirror, almost naked. Swollen feet, A wider back. Stretch marks in every place you reached to see. Dark spots in certain areas, face puffed and breast that was bigger.
The sheets were wrapped around your body, tightly. Your legs made you curl in in the corner nearby the bed. Your own corner of shame.
what if he was like his father?? leaving you after what he gets?
What did he see in you? he thought of course. he knew wasn't the most handsome man alive because of what leprosy did to his face and body but What had possessed him into putting a baby in you? faith in god? last hope for Jerusalem? or he loved you? Surely there were far better and prettier suitors or princess. Suitors that would look the opposite of you in their pregnancy.
with clothes that barely fit you.the king had given you some of his cloaks to be more comfortable.
"Just look at what you're doing. You're carrying my child. our heir. You think I would've picked someone else for this? you're an angle from god who gave this holy land the last hope. you gave me a miracle when my physicians told me i won't be able to have a child."
His masked face went to your neck, to smell your scent
"You think I don't appreciate your body going through such changes to keep my child inside?" He kissed your cheek.
His gloved fingers took your chin and pulled it to make you see yourself in the mirror.
"There you go. Wanna know what I see?"
"I see my queen. Going through a natural process of change."
His hands roamed your hips.
Fingers wiped the fresh tears from your face again.
"You know how much I want you? You're gorgeous.
a tear ran down your cheek and he held you close, hands caressing gently, he then kneeled to kiss your belly and then kisses your head.
"You gave me hope to have a family. to feel alive again And that's something no other woman in this world, but you, have achieved. I have crowned you as the one and only Queen of Jerusalem. I will never break my promise And I would choose you all over again to do so. Do you understand?"
"I love you..." You'd mumble as you curled into his chest, his hand caressing your hair.
"And I love you too my dearest."

Full-length portraits of the historical general Baldwin IV from Evony's General Hall. Both skins are animated in-game - in his "normal" version, he unsheathes his sword part-way before sheathing it again, and in the "Divine Guardian" variant, the chess piece and the glowing Jerusalem heraldry float up and down.
I don't have him yet, but I want him and the Divine Guardian skin so bad, lol. (I'm also a mite bit envious of this artist's illustration skills...)
