King Arthur
this young man, he died eftsoon
by the light of a hunter’s moon
‘twas not by bolt, nor yet by blade,
but the deathly gripe of the deadly nightshade
Finally finished this piece! Lancelot and Arthur pallin’ around like regular bros. Dog bros. But regular bros.
Character design for a project I’m working on. Morgan le Fay from Arthurian legend.
My edit: sir Gareth & lady Lynette || Le Mort d’Arthur by Thomas Malory
Gareth in Le Mort d’Arthur was the Brother of Gawain, Agravaine, Gaheris and Mordred, and the fourth son of Morgause and Lot of Orkney. When he came to Camelot, both his brothers and his uncle, King Arthur, didn’t recognize him, and sir Kay called Gareth “Beaumains” (Pretty Hand) and send him to the kitchens of Camelot, where Gareth remained for one year. When lady Lynette came to Camelot to ask help for her sister, besieged by the Red Knight, he parted with her and became a valiant and famous knight. Also, Lynette was an enchantress, she could bring back to life a knight that Gareth had beheaded for two times. (I guess that Gareth wasn’t so surprised by that, because he was the son of Morgause and the nephew of Morgana, lol!)
(And yes, he is a ginger, because in my headcanon the children of Morgause are all ginger)

The Author: “Got me some Arthurian paper dolls! And they half-look the way I envision them in my Outlaws of Avalon-verse, too. :DDD Not pictured here = Merlin, Morgan le Fay, and all the additional outfits. (Cuz I’ve only got so much meticulous scissor action in me on a single day.)”
