Lancelot du Lac

Lancelot, a character in the Guinevere book, is Camelot's best knight and one of your love interests. He/She first appeared in Chapter 1.

Appearance
Lancelot's appearance is determined by the player. You state that male Lancelot is tall and well-muscled. Lancelot's body is crisscrossed with a dozen faded scars. In Chapter 9, the main character tells both genders that he/she is tall and well-muscled and that he/she would be too heavy to drag if he/she were to fall on his/her face.

Personality
Lancelot is a very skilled fighter, and can be described as mischievous and bold. Before knowing who you are, he/she is flirty and says that he/she always notices danger and beauty. However, once he/she realizes that you are Arthur/Artura's betrothed, he/she changes his/her demeanor and apologizes for his/her behaviour. As a Knight, Lancelot is respectful, loyal, and dutiful, vowing to keep his/her oaths and serve as your protector.

According to Arthur/Artura, Lancelot has always believed in making his/her own fate. According to Lancelot, he/she fought his/her whole life to shape his/her own destiny and does not believe that anything is truly inescapable until it happens.

If you go to the orchard in Chapter 2 and pick Lancelot at the maypole in Chapter 6, Lancelot says that he/she has always preferred dancing outdoors under the sky.

In Chapter 12 if "I doubt my attackers would summon a ball of light" is selected, Lancelot says that he/she has learned to be wary of magic in any form.

Arthur/Artura Pendragon
At the end of Chapter 1, Lancelot says that he/she swore to protect Arthur/Artura and Camelot. In Chapter 2, Lancelot tells you that Arthur/Artura is like a brother/sister to him/her. When you see the vision of Arthur/Artura and Lancelot fighting outside of a destroyed Camelot however, you wonder what could drive a wedge between them and ruin their friendship.

Your Character
You meet Lancelot for the first time in Chapter 1, while he/she is sparring with another knight. At first he/she tries to flirt with you, but backs off and apologizes once he/she finds out that you are Arthur/Artura's betrothed. After you see the vision of Arthur/Artura and him/her fighting, you decide to get to know him/her to see if there's truth to it. Regardless of your actions towards Lancelot, he/she is attracted to you but does not act on said feelings in front of Arthur/Artura. In Chapters 5 & 9, he/she is newly wounded. In both chapters, you have the opportunity to tend to the respective wounds. Shortly before both times, he/she is hesitant about letting you but accepts the help if respective scene is taken. If you tend to his/her wounds in Chapter 5, that scene is mentioned before the Chapter 9 scene and alluded to in a premium Chapter 7 scene. If you kiss him/her in Chapter 9 and/or in Chapter 10, you think about that kiss in Chapter 11.

Agravaine
If you chose Lancelot to be your champion at the joust, he/she defeats Agravaine at the end of the joust.

Sir Bedivere
If you chose Arthur/Artura to be your champion at the joust, Sir Bedivere defeats Lancelot some time before the end.

Morgana
In a premium Chapter 8 scene, Lancelot says that he/she tried to befriend Morgana when he/she first came to court. At some time, he/she found out that Morgana had been seeking a rare plant and brought it to her hoping to show that he/she had no wish to be her enemy. Morgana seemed to see that action as false charity. In the same scene, he/she says that he/she defended Morgana against rumors in the past, for Arthur's/Artura's sake. Morgana consorting with known detractors makes it hard for Lancelot to trust her. These two characters seem to start to make amends towards the end of Chapter 8.

Yvaine
While in the cellar during the premium party grail scene, Yvaine says that she challenged Lancelot to an arm wrestling match.
