These are saints that were known to the British Celts around the
time of Arthur. There were more saints known at that time, but I am not
sure how many were revered by the people of the British Isles. I have not
given many of these saints skills or spells, simply because I do not have
access to any Lives of these saints, so I don't know what miracles they
performed. Also, many saints were credited with miracles after they died,
especially if they were martyrs. If anyone can tell
me of their miracles, I would appreciate it and would credit those
who have helped.
