Ladies of Camelot are female members of Camelot nobility. Most inherit their titles as the daughter of knights and lords, but in some instances it is possible to become a lady through marriage.
Among the most prominent Ladies of Camelot is Morgana Pendragon, the ward and secret illegitimate daughter of King Uther Pendragon.
Duties[]
Little is known about the official responsibilities of a Lady of Camelot. As the king's ward, Morgana was expected to attend feasts, tournaments, and other official and state ceremonies. She even presided over the Decennial Tournament when both Uther and Arthur decided to participate (The Dragon's Call, The Sorcerer's Shadow).
Morgana also attended many trials and audiences with the king, and was often included in private discussions with Uther and Arthur about Uther's decisions (The Mark of Nimueh, A Remedy to Cure All Ills, The Beginning of the End, To Kill the King).
In times of crisis, Morgana often helped Gaius with the wounded. However, she generally did so on a volunteer basis and was not officially required to do so (The Curse of Cornelius Sigan, The Tears of Uther Pendragon).
