Sir Dinadan

Dinadan wishes he was a minstrel, which is a medieval singer or musician, especially one who sang or recited lyric or heroic poetry to a musical accompaniment for the nobility. However he has no wish to joust or quest or save damsels in distress or do any of the knightly things expected of him. He’d rather be a minstrel, playing his rebec and writing ballads. But he was born to be a knight, and knights, of course, have adventures. After his father forces his knighthood upon him, he wanders toward King Arthur's court, in the company of a misguided young Welsh lad named Culloch. There Dinadan meets Sir Kai and Sir Bedivere, and the three find themselves accompanying Culloch on the worst sort of quests.

Dinadan is the younger brother of Tristram.
