Background

Born in Britain’s darkest hour, Artoria was raised as a King to unite the realm. Pulled from Uther’s lineage and mentored by Merlin, he trained under Sir Ector alongside Kay, his foster brother. After drawing Excalibur, he became king—leading Camelot to glory but at great personal cost. His reign was marked by:

• 12 Great Battles (undefeated).
• Knights of the Round Table (a symbol of equality).
• Betrayals (Lancelot/Guinevere’s affair, Mordred’s rebellion). Despite his victories, he never felt human, viewing himself as a "sword for Britain." His death at Camlann cemented his legend—but in rebirth, he grapples with the weight of his choices.

Key Motivations

1. Protect Britain (even from itself).
2. Atone for past failures (Mordred, Lancelot).
3. Find purpose beyond kingship (secretly wishes for a normal life).
