  • KAKT: hero map

    Table or map of the heroes in King Arthur: Knight's Tale game.

    These are the heroes available in King Arthur: Knight’s Tale, arranged by morality. The letters preceding the hero’s name are:

    • a- arcanist
    • c- champion
    • d- defender
    • m- marksman
    • s- sage
    • v- vanguard

    Heroes in red or blue font are mutually exclusive, i.e. you cannot have Merlin and Morgawse at the same time.

    Building a team with similar moralities helps improved loyalty scores, which affect gameplay. See the top left of the character sheet for details.
