Camelot RP Homepage

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. More information is available on the RP History Page.
