Ladies
The traditional King Arthur cycle is a very narrowly defined masculine story, and King Arthur Pendragon reflects that. It is about warrior noblemen, and everyone else has a secondary role, if any at all. That epic world is the setting, and so it mirrors the literature. The stories are not set to accommodate other social classes. Throughout 500 years of medieval literature a couple of peasants appear, priests mainly in the Grail Quest as interpreters of the miracles.
Noble women are far more prominent than non-knightly men. Queen Guenever is half the story of King Arthur. Princess Elaine of Carbonek is the betrayed yet loyal woman, and Queen Isoud something of a doll, but Morgan le Fay and The Ladies of the Lake are women of power. Many other ladies appear to inspire or bewitch the knights.
The material here is for traditional women, or at least women living in the elite strata of a traditional society. Pendragon allows women knights (King Arthur Pendragon, page 41-43), but this is addressing the ordinary noble ladies of court who restrict themselves to traditional roles.
Finally, this is more for NPC wives than fully fleshed out women. Materials for in-depth treatments for player character women are in the works.

SCENARIO Castle of Bones. Writtten by Matthew M. DeForrest. You want Glory? It lies in Caer Anoth, the Castle of Bones. Matthew has generously shared his scenario with us. This is a great adventure, but the legendary origins --a skeleton army!-- makes it a deadly scenario. How good is it? I nearly put this into GPC but didn't only because it would have practically required a TPK (Total Party Kill--you have been warned!). And whether you play this or not, it's a good read. New Animals Ten animals, nine new, some silly.
