Links and other Notes

All ages are given based on the starting age (21) of the PCs in 485.


Why do we distrust the knights of Silchester?

King Constantin, King of Logres, was a mighty warlord, and the Saxons who now invade our shores feared him. Your grandfather fought for King Constantin. his bodyguard, Breton knights from neighbouring Silchester, betrayed and slew their rightful liege. That was two generations ago, and the knights of Silchester have proven themselves to by loyal and fierce warriors. Still, doubts remain.

King Constantin was followed by his sons King Constans, and Aurelius Ambrosius, the first Pendragon, and then by his youngest son, Uther, who is now King of Logres.
