The above are among the most important characters in the Arthurian legend.

Arthur's birth father, King Uther Pendragon gave him away to Merlin at birth due to the troubled times faced during the birth of Arthur. Merlin is a wise magician who advised that Arthur be raised in a secret place to hide his identity, and later was Arthur's advisor. Kay is the foster brother to the young Arthur, and the son of Sir Ector who was Arthur's guardian and adoptive father. Kay was known to be a bully while growing up but in later years when Arthur ascended the throne, became one of his trusted knights and steward as he proved loyalty to Arthur.
