About This Quiz

One of the most famous legends, it was considered an honor to sit around the table as one of King Arthur's knights. If you were given the honor, which knight would you be?

While King Arthur is a big name in British history, many people don't know where the lines of history and legend blur. While many people know of the legend of the sword in the stone, it is said that King Arthur pulled his sword, Excalibur, from the rock.

Another facet to King Arthur's story is the legend of his knights. It was said that he created this table so that all his knights would see themselves as equals and refrain from fighting among his ranks. While the validity is still up for grabs, there are a few legendary knights who have been mentioned time and time again. Which one are you?

Are you like the great leader and fighter, Lancelot? While you're loyal in battle, you might not be loyal in personal matters. After all, Lancelot did sleep with King Arthur's wife!

Rather, are you like Sir Kay? As King Arthur's step-brother, he wasn't always the nicest, but he definitely stepped up and proved his family ties as a knight.

Do you think you're Lancelot or Kay? Maybe you're Percival or Tristan? There's only one way to find out! Take this quiz and we'll tell you which of King Arthur's knights you are!
