Dinadan: Good sheet. Feels you've reined in the edge compared to some of your past works. His snarky narration livened up the backstory. I didn't know this crossdressing anecdote around Tristan, definitely ripe for interpretation. Not sure about Disengage A for one specifically never described retreating in legend, though I get you you had it represent his personality and wanted to round out Dinadan's Skills. For his NP, again, never heard a fairy fell for Tristan and gave him some special sword, but the connection works to add some splash to a Servant otherwise lacking much Mystery.

The Fae falling for Tristan is pure invention on my part. I went “so his sword had to have been from the fae” + “fae canonically found Tristan super hot” and invented pure bs.

But his sword being fae was in the original?

Yes, as the name implies.

Your Dinadan is very good! I know him more from the Knight of the Dragon tradition, where he is more of Segurant's right-hand man than Tristan during the search for the Holy Grail, and he always steals the show in the story with his sarcastic and ironic comments.

Although in the book I read in which he accompanies Segurant and Golistan, there is a fragment in the National Library of France dated to the end of the 13th century in which Dinadan is rescued by Segurant after he sleeps with a peasant girl (implicitly against her will)... It's something very out of character!

I really liked your interpretation of the character, I didn't know he had a fairy sword for example.
