Pendragon was one of six proposed spin-offs for Gargoyles, for which the episode Pendragon was a back-door pilot.

In the series, King Arthur and Sir Griff embark on their quest for Merlin, visiting such places as Tintagel, Stonehenge, and even the South Pole. Along the way, they gain for a companion the Lady Blanchefleur, Sir Percival's estranged wife. Arthur and his companions would have engaged in a number of clashes with the Illuminati and particularly Duval (no doubt connected to Duval's true identity as Sir Percival, an erstwhile associate of Arthur's and knight of the Round Table). They would also have encountered the Stone of Destiny again, in an episode reflecting its real-life return to Scotland in 1996.

Arthur and his companions would eventually have found Merlin in his Crystal Cave, and somehow released him. Afterwards, they would embark upon a fresh quest, for the Holy Grail. At some point, presumably, the issue would have arisen about Arthur's having been awakened early, well ahead of schedule for "Britain's greatest hour of need" that was supposed to be the occasion for his return from Avalon, and also the issue of what his ultimate goal in the modern world would have been. (Further evidence now reveals that Arthur will ultimately found his new headquarters in Antarctica, as New Camelot).
