Arthur. While he doesn't have any magic, he's earned [[BadassCrew Excalibur]]'s unconditional trust for a reason.

Oddly enough, it's ''Cedric Walsh'' who provides a sarcastic-but-completely-accurate overview of Arthur as this trope:
--> The great Arthur Pendragon, Captain of Excalibur. How we'd all be best off following him. He knows his shite, doesn't blink no matter how fucked up things are, and if we follow his lead, we'll get out of this mess in one piece.
** There's a [[spoiler:bunch of ''actual'' fire-breathing dragons in human guise]] with high security clearance and authority positions in the British army: General Tachnathar, Colonel Locher, Colonel Mandrake, and Major Kilgarrah. They fight for the army in both their [[spoiler:human and dragon forms, with Kilgarrah being shown attacking the unnamed dragon menacing London and successfully driving it away.]]
** Olaf is the [[UsefulNotes/SecretIntelligenceService MI-5]] representative, officially retired but still involved in the military and field work, [[spoiler:to the degree of getting shot at one point]].


Added DiffLines:

* MeaningfulName: While the word ''mandrake'' has a different etymology, [[spoiler:Colonel Mandrake is a ''drake'' (dragon) masquerading as a ''man''. Additionally, both mandrakes and Mandrake are living organisms associated with magic.]]

By the end of the series, there's still no consensus on what they will do: take each other's names, hyphenate, or go with a PortmanteauCoupleName (which would not be ''Pendemrys'', as Arthur thinks that sounds like a disease.)
