Sir Lancelot du Lac ~ (CoGM)

Lancelot du Lac - The White Knight
He is a tall young man of about 6 ft 3 in, with a very trim athletic build.
His hair is blonde, like spun gold and his eyes are intense blue-grey, like a storm over a lake.

He can speak and read the Sidhe language as well as "English" (for a lack of a better language). He is excellent at math, strong, quick and more durable than his frame would suggest.

He wears an unusual Plate Mail Armor in that is easy to move around in and very durable and seems to remain shinning.  His wears a tabard of white trimmed with blue and a matching cape that depicts a white rose floating on a lake.

He is armed with a Long Sword, Short Sword and a pair of daggers.  he also has a weapons box that contains another long Sword named "Andamacil" and a dagger named "Sicil", few have seen these wonderfully crafted weapons and few still who faced them and survived.

He is the Practitioner of the Sidhe martial form of the Hyar-Macil Lindë Style of fighting.  This translates as the Cleaving Sword Song Style.  This form of combat uses a combination of Strength, Speed, Dexterity and Precision to overcome an opponent's defenses.  A Hyar-Macil Lindë master is constantly moving, but has the precision to continue to hit the same spot over and over weakening it until it breaks or cleaves in two.

Background:
Lancelot was a foundling, adopted by a Blacksmith (Ewane) and a Healer (Ailbhe) who lived on the shores of Lake Avalon. Lancelot was found a few weeks after he was born, when his natural parents were killed near Lake Avalon.  Ewane and Ailbhe were on their way home to give birth to their own child, but babe came early.  Despite their best efforts, the child died a few days later.  It was after this sad and grievous event that Ewane found the baby Lancelot and took him to his wife.  They felt this was a sign and adopted him as their own.  As Lancelot grew, his father trained in the Hyar-Macil Lindë, and smithing and his mother in the arts of healing.  "Know how to defend the Just and punish the wicked" his father would say.  And his mother "Healing ones allies and enemies alike, is a path to peace".  Lancelot excelled at Hyar-Macil Lindë and become a competent Healer and Herbalist. It was on his 14th, birthday that his father gifted him with Andamacil and Sicil (Long Sword and Dagger in his parents native language) as a sign that he had mastered the Hyar-Macil Lindë.  Ewane told Lancelot that Andamacil and Sicil would always protect him and should only be used when the cause is just to and true to your heart.  So he also gave Lancelot a carved sword box to carry the sword, dagger, sheaths and belts.

It was not until his 16th birthday that Lancelot learn the truth of his Parents and that they were really Elves from Avalon.  And this he learned from a note left by his mother.  She explained that they were called back to Avalon unexpectedly and that Ewane would tell him more about his legacy when they returned.  In his father's forge he found a present in the form of a Suit of Armor, tabard and cape, the armor was carefully crafted that it would also be able to grow as he did (i.e. it was adjustable, in a way few other armors were).  The note with the armor from his parents that read simply "Son, you are a man now, go out into the world find a cause that sings to you. We love you and are proud of you."

Lancelot made sure his parents house and forge were taken care of, then selects a pair of swords and daggers from his father's forge, purchased a white stallion, named him Blanca, and set off to seek adventure..
