Many are the records

that tell of the dungeon delving adventures of Arthur, the Knights of His Round Table, and various other party members. Some would say way too many records. Some are of unquestionable authority, penned in Arthur's own hand and encased between sheets of amber in the walls of the Holy Sanctuary he had constructed in honor of St. Antioch The Shrapnelled. Others are of more questionable authenticity, being illuminated in four ink colors on tractor-feed paper. Some appear reasonably authentic (or not obviously faked) but have conflicting details. Others seem to record stories of different sources as having taken place with Arthur as the central character (instead of, for example, Beowulf, Sun Tzu, Conan, Abbot and Costello or Alton Brown).

The job of a chronicler of the subterranean adventures of Arthur, King Of The Britons, is a difficult one indeed. For example, there seems to be more than one episode wherein the adventurers first met a female warrior. Separating fact, fiction and fantasy, identifying which history birthed which legend that grew into what myth, patching together existing anecdotes, stolen histories, and bard's epics into a coherent tale of treasure seeking is an almost insurmountable effort for the historian.

Lucky for me, I am not a historian.

As a translator, I present this collection of tales concerning the central theme of King Arthur searching Dungeons for Treasure. No guarantees or assurances are provided for the accuracy, authenticity, or authority of any episode, no assertion is made for their proper chronological order, no attempt is made to fully suss out any anachronism or other logical disorder to the tale. I am considering an index to identify the source materials, such as which ones are from the Sanctuary, or from the Druid Hills Road find, the M1 Motorway Traveler's Rest archive, or were mailed into the TSR Headquarters. This would depend on how the stories themselves are received. Then again, if I wanted MORE work, I'd be a chronicler.....


Presenting, Arthur's Round Table Adventures from the various collected works known as "Arthur needs to raise funds for an Election Year."



It is usual for gamers to have a solid core of almost-every-time characters that the quest revolves around, with guests and friends dropping by to lend a hand or kill an evening while the significant other is attending adult education for a GED, or getting certified as a moel.

The core of this campaign centers around King Arthur, and his closest knights:
Sir Lancelot The Brave,
Sir Robin The-Not-Quite-As-Brave-As-Sir-Lancelot,
Sir Galahad The Pure,
the wise Sir Bedevere ,
and
Arthur's Pack Mule: Patsy (NPC)
