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.

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

Arthur/Artura Pendragon
At the end of Chapter 1, Lancelot tells 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 tells 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 tells that he/she defeneded 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.
