The Round Table Troupe
The Round Table Troupe
They only have access to their abilities when in costume and often talk in bad old English. They all process stage combat training and are at least ok actors. With the exception of Arthur’s sword any weapons the Troupe uses are props. Their costumes have a mild enchantment on them to protect them so that they can cause more trouble for Excalibur.
King Arthur
Real Name: Arthur Hunt
PB: Jonathan Rhys Meyers
History: Arthur always dreamed of making it big as an actor. He started a small acting troupe in London to help him accomplish that goal. The troupe has done a couple of productions but has not made any breaks yet.
Arthur and the rest of his troupe were working on a production about King Arthur with Arthur playing the leading role of course then the Leprechaun saw them and decided to have some fun. They convince him and the others they need to be King Arthur and his Knights to save England unlike that no good Excalibur team.
Abilities: Arthur is the most talented at acting of the whole troupe and easily gets lost in a role. Arthur was given a dull sword by the Leprechauns he was made to think is Excalibur. Arthur has made all sorts of claims as to what the sword can do but has never actually demonstrated any of these powers. The only powers the sword has shown is indestructibility, glowing at cinematically appropriate time, and if stuck in anything only he can pull it out. He is also not terrible at using the sword either that someone with actual skill with a sword should be able to beat him.
Sir Lancelot
PB: Paul Walker
Real Name: Luke Campbell
History: The self professed ladies man of the troupe, Luke is a massive flirt though his favorite person to flirt with is Julia even though he knows she’s with Arthur. Luke is good friends with James and loves to tease his brother about his fear of women. Luke likes the being a knight thing mainly so he can use it to pick up women and rescue damsels in distress who will be ever so greatful.
Abilities: Luke can literally be a knight in shining armor making and part of himself shine with almost blinding light. If in a fight he fights to win.
Sir Galahad
Real Name: Andrew Campbell
PB: Chad Michael Murray
History: Andrew is Luke young brother. Luke got him into the troupe and he has done pretty well for himself with them and has gotten more than a few fans for his looks. However he is very shy around women he thinks are pretty and has trouble saying anything around them let alone making eye contact. He enjoys being a part of the group and getting to be a knight with everyone else.
Abilities: Andrew has a minor healing touch which he uses to heal anyone that may have gotten hurt during their escapades. He is not fond of fighting and avoids it if possible unless it’s a part of their act.
Sir Gawain
Real Name: James Baker
PB: James Purefoy
History: James is the troupe big man. He’s not the brightest in the group but he’s not stupid. He’s in the troupe more to have fun rather than to be famous and as sure does seem to have the most fun out of all of them. James is loyal to Arthur, is good friends with Luke, wants to help Andrew get over his fear of women, and does not really like Julia. He really likes the thought of going out and helping people like they get to do by being King Arthur and his Knights.
Abilities: James can lift roughly 1 ton thanks to the powers of the Leprechauns gave him which is roughly twice what he can lift out of costume. He is fairly honorable and does try to act like a true knight should.
Guinevere
Real Name: Julia Wood
PB: Natalie Dormer
History: Julia is with the troupe to get famous. She is not a great actress and tends to over act a lot. However she knows this and has tied herself to Arthur as his girlfriend in the hopes that hopes that he while bring her up with him when he becomes famous like she is gambling that he will. While she is Arthur’s girlfriend Julia really has feelings for Luke and likes to flirt back with him.
With she does not buy the whole being Arthur and his knights thing she does like the thought of being queen and likes playing to that role.
Abilities: Julia has the ability to draw people’s attention to her and the stuff going on around her making it easier for the troupe to get an audience. However it will only work on a crowd or group not just one person. Julia is not much of a fighter and prefers the damsel in distress role or seducer but if she has to fight she fights very dirty.
