OSR Commentary - FASERIPopedia Camelot Rpg Sourcebook By Johnathan Nolan & Ascendant Rpg Campaign update Report

 Last night I was messing around with FASERIPopedia Camelot & noticed a very interesting comment by the publisher; "Depending on the original source, there were anywhere from 150 to over 1500 (FIFTEEN HUNDRED) Knights of the Round Table. Going back to the original history of south-west Wales and Maurice / Arthur II (the historical real King Arthur) there were close-knit warrior nobles numbering in the dozens so in a weird way even though the Camelot stuff is all myth, it echoes and resonates with the original genuine history. :)" 



There are over a hundred NPC knights of the round table within Camelot. Bare in mind that these are actually going into our Ascendant Rpg campaign. We've got one PC's whose got a deep and abiding Camelot connection. Our Camelot buts up against the Unofficial Marvel Canon's Otherworld location sourcebook material. 


Let's get back to Camelot and the fact that our player Bretta's PC happened to wander into king Arthur's kingdom right in the middle of the inner city of New York City. Camelot's Whirlwind then took the character and she was made a female knight after a series of adventures that our PC's got sucked into. 
Camelot isn't well organized but the amount of material within it could keep a campaign going for years. Lady Elizabeth has run afoul one of the turn coat 'knights of the Round table'. She unknowingly insulted one of the most violent and terrible knights who keeps sending assassins her way. Lady Elizabeth however was able to find a magic sword after an encounter with a lost Roman era undead. 
Elizabeth was made a knight of the round table after defeating a nasty Saxon assassin in King Arthur's court. She's enjoying her status among the court but has had to devide her time between Camelot and the real world. 
Since we use a lot of FASERIP/Marvel Super Heroes in our Ascendant rpg games I use Alexander Marcus's conversion; "Since someone is bound to ask, to convert from Marvel/FASERIP, do the following: MIG should be equal to lesser of STR or END AGI should be equal to AGIL VAL should be equal to FIGHTING RES should be equal to PSYCHE INS should be equal to REASON CHA should be equal to INTUITION Feeble = 1 SP Poor = 2 SP Typical = 3 SP Good = 4 SP Excellent = 5 SP Remarkable = 7 SP Incredible = 9 SP Amazing = 11 SP Monstrous = 13 SP Unearthly = 15 SP Shift X = 16 SP Shift Y = 17 SP Shift Z = 18 SP Class 1000 = 20 SP Class 3000 = 24 SP Class 5000 = 30 SP So Thor (https://classicmarvelforever.com/cms/thor.html) would be something like: MIG 15, AGI 9, VAL 15, RES 11, INS 3, CHA 5, with Physical Invulnerability 5, Cryogenic Corrosive Electrical Ionizing Thermal Toxic Resistance 15, Immortality 20, Weather Control 15, Boomerang Bludgeoning Strike 16*, Hovering Flight 20*, Protective Deflection 15*; with *Powers being subject to a Deprived of Device Vulnerable State."
