| - | '''Gawain''' is [[King Arthur]]'s nephew and a [[Knights of the Round Table|Knight]] of the [[Round Table (Camelot)|Round Table]] who appears very early in the [[Arthurian legend]]'s development. Gawain is often portrayed as a formidable but [[brash]] warrior, fiercely loyal to his king and family. He is a friend to young knights, a defender of the poor, and a consummate [[ladies' man]]. In some works, his strength waxes and wanes with the sun; in the most common form of this motif, his might triples by noon, but fades as the sun sets. His knowledge of herbs makes him a great healer, and he is credited with at least three children: Florence, Lovell, and [[Gingalain]], the last of which is also called [[Libeaus Desconus]] or [[Le Bel Inconnu]], the Fair Unknown. | + | |
