The Arthurian knights, who sat with King Arthur around the round table, became the focal point of fellowship between knights. Some of them are famous as heroes and champions of just cause.The round table was mentioned by the French poet Wace, in about 1155. The round table had 25 people sitting at the round table. Tristan and Lancelot where the two who had the most power. There is a big Round Table hanging on the wall of Winchester Castle, which names 25 shields. Notable amongst the seats around the table was the 'Siege Perilous,' placed there by Merlin as an aspiration for those who would be the most pure of knights. Arthur's father, Uther Pendragon, responsible for the actual construction of the table, after hearing Merlin 's tales of St. Joseph of Arimathea and the Grail Table. On the Round Table there was a cross in the middle of it. Around the table there where sign seats and on there chair they had there symbol on so they don’t forget where they sit.

<span style="color: #d5d534; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">media type="youtube" key="Tt6iFJhTzoI" height="344" width="425"Tristan was one of King Arthur’s strongest and bravest knights at the Round Table; Lancelot is his other Strongest and most bravest knight. Tristan had many battle against other people here are some of them, Tristan vs. Morholt the Tristan and Morholt battle was very violent and at the end of the battle Tristan hits Morholt in the head with his sword and a chunk of his sword got stuck in Morholt’s head and Tristan won that battle, another battle is between King Mark vs. Tristan it was a very long battle King Mark got defeated by him and the reason why was that Tristan slayed the dragon and took his wife Isolde. Tristan had to make a love potion to make Isolde love him still was because she saw the sword in Morholt’s head and that made her not love him.

<span style="color: #d1d147; display: block; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 140%; text-align: center;">Tristan’s Myth <span style="color: #040495; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; msotabcount: 1;"> <span style="color: #040495; font-family: Impact,Charcoal,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">After long battle, Tristan defeats Morholt. But because Morholt's weapons were poisoned, Tristan's wounds do not get better. He travels to Ireland, seeking a cure for the poison. He conceals his identity through the name Tantris and makes a slow recovery under Isolde's care. He then returns to Cornwall -- speaking the praises of the beautiful Isolde who nursed him back to health. King Mark desires to have Isolde brought to him to be his wife based on the blooming account that Tristan gives of her. Meanwhile, Anguish is plagued by a dragon. He offers Isolde's hand in marriage to the knight who can slay the dragon. Tristan travels to Ireland to slay the dragon and win Isolde's hand for King Mark. He does indeed slay the dragon, but is overcome by the poisonous fumes. King Anguish's steward then produces the head, claiming that he has defeated the dragon. Isolde knows this cannot be true and despises the steward, so she goes out in search of the true dragon slayer. She finds Tristan and must nurse him back to health again. It is during this time that Isolde notices that a piece of Tristan's sword is missing. he has a piece of the sword that killed Morholt -- her uncle -- which was removed from his battered head. She fits the piece from Morholt's head into the missing section of Tristan's sword and deduces that Tristan is Morholt's murderer. Though she is angry that he killed her uncle, she must allow him to live to refute the steward's claim to her hand. Tristan does mend, and claims Isolde's hand for Mark. Isolde is still angry with Tristan for the death of Morholt, but she still has to travel with him to Cornwall. During the voyage she asks her maid, Brangwain, to make a potion that will poison Tristan. Brangwain also deduces that Isolde wishes to drink the potion as well in order to end this coming marriage with Mark. In addition to this, Brangwain is in love with Tristan and does not wish to see him dead. She therefore makes a love potion rather than a death potion. The couple, Tristan and Isolde, drinks the potion and are forever in passionate love. The couple consummates this love on the boat that night. Once in Cornwall, Isolde must go through the wedding and then needs to disguise her loss of virginity. She persuades Brangwain to sleep with Mark -- thereby sacrificing her virginity. This marks the first of several deceptions that the lovers use to deceive Mark. But Mark's court is full of traitorous and envious courtiers. They try again and again to capture Isolde and Tristan is compromising situations. Eventually they succeed and the lovers are condemned to death. Tristan manages to escape. He rescues Isolde from a group of lepers which she was given to as punishment. She then swears a false oath in a trial by ordeal, but is banished with Tristan. The two flee to the forest where they live in exile. Life in the forest is very difficult and eventually the two decide to split. Isolde returns to Mark's court and Tristan flees in exile. During his wanderings he comes to Brittiany's court of King Howell. Tristan does him many great services, thereby winning his daughter's hand. He agrees to marry her because her name is also Isolde, Isolde of the White Hands. He does not, however, consummate the marriage because his love for the true Isolde is so strong. Tristan aids his brother-in-law, Kaherdin, in a battle and is poisoned -- again! He sends for the true Isolde to heal him, knowing that only she has to power to do so. But when the ship comes into view, Tristan is too ill to leave his bed and asks Isolde of the White Hands to tell him the color of the sails. Knowing that white sails mean Isolde of Ireland, her rival, is aboard and seeing those white sails, Isolde of the White Hands reports that the sails are black, signifying that Isolde is not on the ship. Tristan dies of despair. When Isolde of Ireland comes into the room and finds her beloved dead, she too dies of grief. The two are buried side by side. From Tristan's grave a vine grows and from Isolde's a rose. The two plants intertwine and grow together as a living symbol of their passionate love.

Percival is the grail knight. His father was King Pellinore or another worthy knight. His sister is the bearer of the Holy Grail, she is sometimes named Dindrane. After his father died his mother took him to the Welsh Forest where he was raised until he was 15 years old. He traveled to see King Arthur and when he got there King Arthur invited him to the Round Table and to be a knight. <span style="color: #f7b573; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace; font-size: 130%;">Sir Percivals Myth <span style="color: #ffb100; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace; font-size: 120%;">The Fisher King, or the Wounded King , figures in Arthurian legend as the latest in a line charged with keeping the Holy Grail. Versions of his story vary widely, but he is always wounded in the legs or groin, and incapable of moving on his own. When he is injured, his kingdom suffers as he does, his impotence affecting the fertility of the land and reducing it to a barren Wasteland. Little is left for him to do but fish in the river near his castle Carbonic. Knights travel from many lands to heal the Fisher King, but only the chosen can accomplish the feat. This is Percival in the earlier stories; in the later versions, he is joined by Galahad and Bors. <span style="color: #ffb100; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace; font-size: 120%;">Confusingly, many works have two wounded Grail Kings who live in the same castle, a father and son (or grandfather and grandson). The more seriously wounded father stays in the castle, sustained by the Grail alone, while the more active son can meet with guests and go fishing. For clarity, the father will be called the Wounded King, the son the Fisher King where both appear in the remainder of this article.
