With only one exception, every character who appears or is mentioned on The Campaign for Camelot is based on a character from an Arthurian source. From the main characters:

Mordred – Mordred
Kay – Kay
Gavin – Gawain
Nelly – Ragnelle
Vera – Bedivere and Guinevere
Vicky – Gwenhwyfach
Hannah – Hank Morgan (of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court)

Izzy is also based on an Arthurian character, but we’re keeping that one under wraps. If you can guess who it is, we’ll send you a Mordred for School Board pin!

Thank you!!

I want to think Izzy is Galahad! Or maybe Percival? Thank you again for your answer!

Those are both good guesses, but nope! We’ve given a couple of hints on Twitter:

1. Izzy is not genderbent (so his source character is also male).

2. To our knowledge, the character Izzy is based on only appears in one classic Arthurian source (we’re not sure he’s even shown up in any modern adaptations) but he is a major character in that story.

And since you mentioned it in your tags, we’ll throw in a third hint:

3. Izzy’s last name (Hammer) is meaningful.

Wait… There’s that guy… what’s his name… Iddawg? Iddowg? Whatever, that Idd-something Something Prydain guy, the one who fucked everything up when he messed the words in the messages from Arthur and Mordred to each other and then the Battle of Camlann happened and all that jazz. It’s him?

Yes! Izzy is based on Iddawg, from “The Dream of Rhonabwy.” If you send us an address in a private message, we’ll send you your Mordred for School Board pin!

(To anyone disappointed on missing out on the pin: Don’t worry, there’ll be more opportunities to get them.)
