Uther Pendragon: legendary father of Arthur <http://www.user.globalnet.co.uk/~tomgreen/figures.htm>. He is said to have impersonated Gorlois of Cornwall and impregnated Gorlois's wife, Igraine, with the child that became Arthur. Some traditions have him as brother of Ambrosius and High King of Britain for a time. Geoffrey of Monmouth says he is buried at the Giants' Dance.
