i was thinking this morning about how many depictions i have seen of arthurian female characters are quite feminine. we headcanon many of these characters as girl kissers and of course not all queer women are masculine but there's so little masc rep out there...

so i am wondering what female characters in the arthurian legend yall headcanon as butch/masc?

do you write about them? make art/crafts about them? do you have any face headcanons for them?

please share!

Arthurian Mirror/Role Reversal AU, where Morgan is the Once and Future Queen, leader of the Dames of the Round Table, who search for the Holy Clau or Holy Rood.

Meanwhile Arthur becomes the Supernatural Raider/Wild Man called "Arthur la Guivre", who terrorizes Morgan's kingdom but ultimately rescues his sister after the final battle, bringing her over to his Otherworldly realm under a Mountain.

Sebile becomes the Sir Kay of this AU.

out of curiosity, which mythic/pagan origins of the Arthurian cast (and other Welsh or Galfiridian characters) do you take seriously?

Out of the myriad speculations, I think the one I would stick my leg out for is "Guinevere = Findabair". Similarly, "Excalibur = Caladbolg".

In my mind, during the era of Irish migrations into Britain, both Guinevere and Excalibur were "loaned" from Irish Myth (Ulster Cycle), and intermingled with the indigenous Arthur folk stories that existed Pre-Geoffrey of Monmouth that ultimately became too iconic and got spun off into their own unique portrayals, Irish origins forgotten.

Other than that, I also lean a little bit towards "Morgan = Mari-Morgen" theory as parallel to the idea that character Sebile arose from the cultural memories of the Greek Oracles.

Both of these characters are known for having magical powers which could help them win the game by predicting their opponent's moves or by interfering with the game in some other way.

Sebile is a very powerful sorceress whose name may be a reference to the Cumaean Sibyl, suggesting prophetic powers.

Taliesin is a shapeshifting bard with allegedly unparalleled powers and magical knowledge of the past and future.
