Kayley's father, Sir Lionel, is one of the knights of the Round Table. Kayley wants to be a knight like her father. At Camelot, one of the knights, Ruber - wanting to become king of Camelot instead of King Arthur - attempts to kill Arthur, but Lionel intervenes and is killed. Ruber flees Camelot in exile after being rebounded by Excalibur. At Lionel's funeral, Arthur said she and her mother would be welcomed in Camelot.
