Camelot RP Homepage
"Two came together in love and fear, in
Leonesse stronghold; and became One. One world there is, one God,
and one birth... The Druid stars foretold."
Stephen Lawhead Oxford, England
1987
The Legend
Although there is countless written material regarding Arthurian
legend, certainly the most popular English works are by Sir Thomas
Mallory, written around 1450-1460 a.d. and the most prolific works by
Chretien de Troyes of France. For more information on the historical
background and legends of Arthur, go to the Legend
Page. Unfortunately, most of my favorite Arthurian links have vanished from the net lately,
however Arthuriana still survives and holds many wonderful
links, reading lists, and information. If you have
some nice Camelot-related links, please email them to Vicki/Guinevere.
For the purposes of this RP, we will follow the storyline of Morganna
being the mother of Mordred.
The Original Idea for the RP
Many thanks to Cliff Satton (aka Merlin and Sir Lancelot) who began
this RP. His original idea was to bring the Knights of the Round Table to
Glenshadows Tavern, the long ago fantasy tavern from the old WBS chat system. However, since then, things have developed to the point that we now meet
two days per week in a private room. (Usually Monday and Wednesdays 7pm Pacific time)
The Purpose of this Page
The purpose of this page is to keep characters involved in the
Camelot RP up-to-date as to what has occurred and inform others of the
history and progression of the RP. We are not using a prescribed text
as reference at this point, but we recommend all rp'rs have a basic
knowledge of the legend.
If you, or someone you know, would like to participate, e-mail Guinevere or Merlin asap!
The Story Unfolds
Our RP began after Lancelot and Guinevere had left Camelot (following
their illicit affair) .... Lancelot becoming a wanderer and Guinevere
staying with the Holy Sisters. Arthur summoned them both back to
Camelot, their transgressions forgiven and an oath of loyalty declared
to the King.
Over the past two years we have seen the restablishment of Camelot as
a strong fortress, kingdom and home of the Knights of the Round
Table, the marriage of Sir Lancelot to Jadess (Queen of a neighboring
land), the kidnapping and rescue of Guinevere, many marriages, the birth
of Guinvere's son, the death and resurrection of Merlin, the arrival of
many new and interesting characters, and the gradual decay of the
kingdom due to the King's unexplained illness. Currently the Quest is on in
search of the Holy Grail which will save both the King and the land.

Page.
