I see a lot of sword and sorcery settings or elements. But have any of you created more of an Arthurian type setting?

How would you define an Arthurian setting?

My Blackmoor Campaign has a strong Arthurian feel to it.

I have an Arthurian feel in Northern Verbosh, the Vargo Barony

How would you define an Arthurian setting? Questing knights, mysterious islands and forests. Less Tolkien, Howard and Leiber. I guess a more pseudo historical. |

The way to do it would be to create lots and lots of random encounter tables, because the knights in Arthurian stories NEVER map and always wander about randomly until they encounter what they’re looking for — often for years. Different romances recycle the same types of encounters, too, so you can read almost anything and construct a pretty thorough Arthurian world (I would recommend Nigel Bryant’s edition of Perceval). |

A while back a guy on Dragonsfoot posted some notes for his take on a Dark Ages / Arthurian feel campaign. Lots of names and worth checking out in my opinion. I just checked and the link he gave still works: dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/68895612/%C3%86lla.pdf |
