Percival

Sir **Percival** is the son of King Pellinore of the Isles, the younger brother of Sir Aglovale, older brother of Sir Lamorak, adoptive older brother of Sir Tor, all of them who've been members of the Knights of the Round for quite some time before he finally overcome the curse surrounding him and vowed to forever in service of King Arthur Pendragon of Camelot, Logres and the Britons. Due to his unrivaled innocence and kindness among the sons of King Pellinore, it had been prophesied that he'll be one of those who'll find the Holy Grail, a collision to that of the prophecy surrounding Sir Galahad. Due to the unrivaled jealousy of Morgan le Fay, she and other mages condemned him to be cursed: that everyday, he'll be a good knight by day and be the embodiment of evil by night. With his attitude out of control, King Pellinore allowed him to leave and venture on his own. Despite the curse, Percival vowed to never hurt women and children. Later, it was revealed that he was originally cursed for allowing women and children be condemned during his first fight as a knight when he can do something about it.

He breaks the curse later on himself with the help of Eira Prowell who've ventured through his soul that he can control that evil side of his if he wanted to. It appears that the only way for the curse to be lifted is for a woman to understand the true depth of his soul, and Eira managed to reach that of his. He then become one of the Knights of the Round afterwards, and along with Galahad and a selected few, they are sent by Arthur to find the Holy Grail. He had been spared from death compared to the countless other members of the Knights of the Round that perished during the Battle of Camlann, as well as their king. Due to that, he and the surviving ones had ventured to keep the promise of ensuring that the legend of their king will live on throughout time before they scattered away and fulfill Arthur's wish to have his nephew, Constantin II, become the next king.
