Summary
Arthur Pendragon is the teenaged king of Camelot, who ascended to the throne after drawing a sword that no one else could. Although he is optimistic and happy-go-lucky, he takes his duties as a king very seriously. Merlin is his closest friend and adviser. After Camelot fell to the Demon Clan, Arthur formed an underground resistance and saved many citizens, as well as underwent training from Nanashi.
It is revealed that Arthur is the hero chosen to wield Excalibur, although he has yet to unlock the full potential within him.

Weapons
Holy Sword Excalibur: Arthur is the hero chosen to wield Excalibur by the souls of heroes residing in it. The sword has passed from hero to hero for countless generations, becoming infused with their collective skill and power. When wielding it Arthur gains the various skills learned by all the heroes of the past.
- Dance of Avidya: A technique created by a blind swordsman capable of countering "any and all manner of surprise attacks" as if done automatically.
- Deathpecker: A technique of War King Tartenos which consists of many quick, consecutive lunges. The blows seemingly keep hitting as the target is pushed backward. Arthur was able to push Zeldris many meters back using this technique.
Note: Not to be confused with any other similarly-named characters or the historical figure he is named after.
