[QUOTE="Atilary, post: 1774187, member: 773"] Some other things to think about. Look at some other literature from the times, Orfeo as translated by Tolkien, as well as his translant of Sir Gawain. Check this site out[URL=http://www.lib.rochester.edu/camelot/cphome.stm?CFID=3511323&CFTOKEN=11700157]site[/URL] in one of my classes we've recently been looking at the Robynn Hood texts there. I wouldn't forget the rather large amount of "fairy" elements in the stories, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight for example, of the Faerie king in Orfeo. There is much more going on here than just knights and kings, but also fey creatures such as goblins and orcs (easily done) and elves and such... they are fey creatures but not in the traditional D&D sense. I would also go either two ways with the campaign and with the conversion in general, either the heroic "we are young and invincible" feel, or the "all men die feel," which would work better perhaps in a campaign world were Author was aging and the glory days of chivalry seem to be passing. I feel that like a late 3rd age or 4th age ME campaign this would probably be the most appropriate for me. In this type of campaign you could make artifacts and monsters rare, and with all the old round table knights old or dead, the characters could be those that rise up to defend camelot. [/QUOTE]
