  Arthur Pendragon
Arthur reasoned that all battles are won on the astral before they are won on the physical, and if one has an astral defence, then one is one step ahead of those who think of attacking physically.
Arthur, in complete control, orders the Elemental to absorb the raw Moon-Ka from Caliburn and condense it in to an opal that was already placed within the bottom left segment of the circle.
Arthur sends the Elemental back to it's own plane, and picks up the opal, tentatively; it feels very cold, but it is the most beautiful gem he has ever seen; it even compares to the beauty of Gwenevere.

  King Arthur - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arthur, who is described as his kinsman, agrees to the request and fulfils the demands of Olwen's giant father Ysbaddaden, which includes his hunt for the great boar Twrch Trwyth described at length by the author.

 The Arthur Project - Arthur Pendragon
King Arthur, son of Uther Pendragon, was famously introduced to the world by the Welsh cleric Geoffrey of Monmouth in the work Historia Regnum Britanniae (History of the Kings of Britain; Thorpe 1966) written around 1135.
The great king Arthur stood as the centrepiece of Geoffrey's Historia, and much of the work is devoted to his life and kingship in the fifth century in the wake of the departure of the Roman legions in 410 and the treachery of the Saxon mercenaries lead by Hengist and Horsa.
Arthur returned to Britain to meet the armies of Medrod at Camlan and a great battle was fought in which Arthur was mortally wounded, and close to death, Arthur is taken to the Isle of Avalon under the care of the enchantress Morgan and her sisterhood of nine.

 King Arthur
Arthur is the name that inspired people to think of the Age of Chivalry, where the tall, impregnable castle overlooked the field of combats, a clash between two opposing armies or tournaments between jousting knights, or where we romanticised armoured knight embarked on a perilous journey to prove his prowess and worth.
Arthur was the son of Uther Pendragon and Igraine.
The cause of the death of Arthur, was the adultery of Lancelot and Guinevere, the disappearance of the Grail from Britain and the betrayal and treason of Mordred, his son by his half-sister Morgawse.

 The Gargoyles Fans Website :: Episode Review: Pendragon
Arthur begs her to return his sword to him, but she does not have it.
She tells Arthur that he must prove himself worthy of the sword and the leadership of the world, then summons a water elemental from the lake.
After Arthur broke his old sword (Malory does not say whether it was the Sword in the Stone or a lesser weapon) while fighting King Pellinore, Merlin brought him to the Lady of the Lake, who gave him Excalibur via the famous hand rising up from her lake garbed in a sleeve of white samite.

 Earth-Young Arthur (Iron Man story, Earth-8912 @ 2903)

 King Arthur
Others place Arthur in a more mythical setting; he is portrayed as battling various mythical beings such as witches, giants, and even the monstrous wild boar Troit in an epic hunt across Wales, and as journeying to the Otherworld of Annwn to steal a magical cauldron.
Arthur's story continued to flourish in the 16th century under the Tudors (who were Welsh and liked to think of themselves as Arthur's heirs), although very little lasting literature about him was produced (the closest being Edmund Spenser's Faerie Queene, and Arthur himself plays only a minor role in it).
Arthur was almost entirely forgotten in the 18th century, which preferred to draw its inspiration from the classical world and considered the medieval period merely a long dark age between the glories of Greece and Rome and the modern age.

 CJ Stone - The trials of king arthur pendragon
Arthur is a key to exploring the nature of Britain on many levels; mythical, political, historical, magical, moral and physical.
Well, yes it is. Unless you happen to be writing a book with Arthur Pendragon that is. Being the co-author of a book about ‘90s protest culture with someone claiming to be the reincarnation of a dark ages battle chieftain has been anything but quiet.

 RPGnet : Review of King Arthur Pendragon (5th edition)
Defending a village from attack might be a hoary old roleplaying standard, but in Pendragon it suddenly becomes a chance for players to demonstrate their “Valorous”, “Just” and “Merciful” Traits and to demonstrate their “Love” of their family or their “Loyalty” to their liege.
Pendragon is a 226 page hardbound book with a largely monochrome interior, one pull-out full colour map of Britain and a series of famous shields also presented in colour.
Religion in Pendragon is a filter through which characters view the world not a handy excuse to commit atrocities.

 Amazon.co.uk: Arthur (Pendragon Cycle): Books   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Arthur is the third book of The Pendragon Cycle: a magnificent epic set against the baackcloth of Roman Britain and the legends of Arthur and lost Atlantis.
Not surprisingly, the spotlight in this novel is Arthur, as Lawhead chronicles his progression from a fatherless and unknown teenager, to the Duke of Britain, to the High King of Britain, and finally to the Emperor of the West.
Lawhead identifies Arthur's kingdom with the cause of Christ, and portrays his battles against the barbarians as a conflict between Arthur and the True God and "the barbarians and their loathly idols." (p.265) His battles are God's battles, and battles for God's kingdom.

 Suite No. 1: Arthur Pendragon   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Mordred, the son born of this union, was raised by Morgan with the single aim of wreaking vengeance on Arthur for her father's death.
It is the combination of her passionate enmity, and the love-affair between Arthur's wife Guinevere and his closest friend and favourite knight Sir Lancelot, that brought about the eventual split in the company of knights assembled by Arthur at the Round Table in his palace at Camelot.
However, superimposed on the wedding is the Slaughter of the Innocents, as a result of Arthur's decision that all babies should be slaughtered--he is aware that Morgan has born a child as a result of their incestuous union, and aware too that the child will be a threat to the kingdom in the future.
