Lancelot - A gargoyle of the Manhattan Clan.

History

Lancelot will hatch in the Manhattan Clan's rookery in 2058. Though the clan may or may not be aware of it, he is in fact the youngest of Broadway and Angela’s three children, and brother to Artus and Gwenyvere. Little else is known of Lancelot.

Characteristics

Almost nothing is known about what Lancelot will look like, though Greg Weisman has hinted that he may resemble Goliath to some degree.

Real World Background

Lancelot is named after Sir Lancelot du Lac, King Arthur’s best knight and - unfortunately - the lover of Queen Guinevere; it was their love affair that helped destroy Arthur’s kingdom. (According to Greg Weisman, Lancelot and Guinevere’s affair did indeed exist in the Gargoyles Universe). His name, together with that of Artus and Gwynevere, is a sign of Broadway and Angela’s strong interest in the Arthurian legend.
