[-''Note: The game includes and changes some aspects from the various versions of Arthurian Legend. Fort the original version of these characters, see [[Characters/ArthurianLegend here]].''-]

* TheUnfettered: Mordred is ''really'' into killing Arthur. It's his entire priority and lifes' purpose and he's got no issue threatening or staring Sorceresses, Shamans, Sidhe Lords, or even the Physical God who raised him from the dead to accomplish that goal.

* DualWielding: Like all Vanguards, he dual wields a pair of longswords.

A roaming adventurer. In Britannia, sir Yvain was known for getting into the most bizarre adventures, which nowadays he'll happily re-tell.

* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: He actually ends up [[DivineDate marrying the ''Lady of the Lake'']] in his most famous tale, whereas here they don't interact with each other at all.

* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Both she and Mordred are rather averse to working together, engaging in plenty of SnarkToSnarkCombat. She even starts out with a debuff on loyalty.

* LadyOfWar: She wears a bronze-golden BlingOfWar and wields an elegant curved sword, both befitting a queen.

* ThePaladin: Galahad, is largely regarded as the quintessential paladin.

* KnightInSourArmor: Despite fighting for the innocent, his dialogue is rather cynical and his voice actor gives him a rather weary voice[[note]]This may be reference on how he was DrivenToMadness after being cheated on by Gawain and finding out about Guinevere and Lancelot ''on the same day''.[[/note]]
* StoneWall: He's a defender, but even among them he is the most focused on pure defense.

* KnightInSourArmor: Despite fighting for the innocent, his dialogue is rather cynical and his voice actor gives him a rather weary voice.

* FriendlyZombie: He was slain by the Knight of Midnight and turned into a lost. He retained his personality and is still a loyal knight.

* LikeFatherLikeSon: She's a champion like his father. In life, his father was an honorable, dutiful knight like him.

* KnightInSourArmor: Despite fighting for the innocent, his dialogue is rather cynical.

* FriendlyZombie: He was slain by the knight of Midnight and turned into a lost. He retained his personality and is still a loyal knight.

* MightyGlacier: As a Champion, Kay is slow, heavily armored, and hits like a truck.

Arthur wife, slain by Mordred's own hand in Britannia, joined the Lady of the Lake as her champion in Avalon.

* HalfHumanHybrid: She has some Sidhe heritage, something that she had to hide in Britannia.

* HundredPercentAdorationRating: Mordred notes in an event she's universally loved in Camelot. She's got the "Beloved" trait, making her hostel stays cost 50% as much.
* ActionGirl: Made into one upon awakening in Avalon.

* FateWorseThanDeath: When she was captured by the Romans, they whipped her in front of her daughters, then ''raped and killed her daughters before her very eyes'', before putting her under a spell that'd keep her alive and awake and aware of her daughters rising as undead banshees in her tomb. She endured this for centuries.

* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: When she's freed she goes off hunting for those who sealed her away. Their being dead for century isn't even enough to stop her.

* VocalDissonance: Possesses a jovial, youthful, voice despite being a hulking monstrosity. Likely a result of the fragment of Arthur's soul he has channelling Arthur from when he was younger.

The god-like Enchantress of Avalon. Patron of Arthur, and now of Mordred. She is one of the few remaining members of Tuatha Dé Danann, the old gods of the old faith. She is Avalon's mistress. She is the one who tried to save Arthur from death, and who raised Mordred to stop him.

The protagonist of this Tale. Mordred served on Arthur's round table until he turned against him, leading Arthur's enemies against the forces of Camelot. In the end Arthur and Mordred killed on another in a final duel. Now Mordred has been brought back by the Lady of the Lake, to finish off Arthur once and for all.

* SwordOfPlotAdvancement: [[spoiler:Eventually he gains Excalibur to slay the Fisher King. It has no gameplay effect other than replacing the model of the sword he wield with a shinier one.]]

* ShockAndAwe: Mordred as a single target lightning spell available at Tier 2, and a chain lightning spell at tier 3, which he's seen using in the intro.

-->'''Mordred:''' Well then. I have some experience in destroying both.

* BadassBoast: He's prone tot his.

'''Mordred:''' Well then. I have some experience in destroying both.

Sir Leodegrance was an honored knight, once raising a talented, beautiful daughter in a castle. That changed the day Arthur raided the tower, and took his daughter, winning her love and making her his queen, Guinevere. In Avalon Sir Leodegrance roams the land, protecting the common people from various evil.

Sir Tewelyn's youngest son. Balin is a brash, aggressive knight who siezed his father's keep rather than let his brother have it as tradition dictates.

* DeathSeeker: Having had to put down the monsters his wife and children became under the Fisher King's curse, and learning his son dabbled in human sacrifice, that his wife offered herself as sacrifice to said son, utterly breaks him, and he joins the round table hopping to die, fully admitting he has nothing left to live for.

Ages ago, Balor and his horde attempted to conquer Avalon, but were thoroughly defeated and banished to another dimension. His brutish personality caused all to believe that he would return by brute force, but he managed to use deception instead. Over time and across dimensions, he slowly poisoned the soul of Avalon, 'assisted' Sir Mordred with 'killing' Arthur, and when the time came, used his unwitting puppet as an eldritch sacrifice to open a portal to his prison.

* TheCorruptor: He's part of the reason King Arthur became an irredeemable asshole. The poison Mordred acquired from Balor to kill King Arthur? That was actually a mutagen which turned Arthur into an insane, undead monster.
