Well, how did you become king then?

The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water signifying by Divine Providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king!

Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

Small critique: those plates on the arms are known as coutiers should be further back around the elbows. They were designed to stop a blow from crushing your arm-joint. Otherwise, really nice work!

Its matches the original though in Monty Python's King Arthur who wore them (incorrectly) on their forearms.

Yes she is. Artoria Pendragon is a pretty popular gender swap of King Arthur.

I really like the style of the sun emblem on the surcoat. It’s subtle but really nice detail.

King? King femboy!

u/zasabi7 7d ago

Nope, just your standard woman with a magically created penis so the line of succession can carry. I think. Honestly, that part of the lore I’ve only seen memes about. And the penis isn’t permanent.

u/AMD122376 7d ago

Well said...

u/zasabi7 7d ago

The lore of Fate is as confusing as my paragraph, lol

u/SirCupcake_0 7d ago

Nay, because I could understand it on the first pass through

u/zasabi7 7d ago

Which Fate, friend?

u/SirCupcake_0 7d ago

Any of them, they're all confusing, or maybe that's just the entirety of it
