Camelot: Roleplaying in the Court of King Arthur (Roleplaying Game)
Knights and Wizards!
They were the best knights in the world. They were advised by the most powerful wizard of all . . . Merlin himself! And their leader was King Arthur, bearer of Excalibur.
The story of Camelot is the story of chivalry itself. All the knightly traditions of fantasy . . . monster-slaying, maiden-rescuing, jousts, adventures in disguise . . . came from the tales of King Arthur, as told by a thousand years of bards. Now Camelot comes alive for the roleplayer.
A story of love, war, loyalty and betrayal that begins with the failure of Lancelot's rebellion and the ruin of Arthur's marriage. Sensing disunity, the Saxons declare war. However, Arthur is victorious at Mount Badon, but the promises he made come back to haunt him after years of peace and glory.
Essentially this is a modern political thriller, told in flat American diction. Narrated by Derfel, an ordinary, likable man who rises through the ranks to become Arthur's friend and advisor in peace and war, the story doesn't follow the traditional patterns. Mordred is Uther's infant grandson, the legitimate king; Arthur is one of Mordred's guardians, sworn to hold the kingdom against the Saxon warlords until Mordred comes of age. Warfare is incessant. Arthur's dream of peace and unity seems unattainable.
