The Fisher King (French: Roi Pêcheur; Welsh: Brenin Pysgotwir; Cornish: Pyscador Myghtern; Breton: Roue ar Peskataer) is a figure in Arthurian legend, the last in a long line of British kings tasked with guarding the Holy Grail. The Fisher King is both the protector and physical embodiment of his lands, but a wound renders him impotent and his kingdom barren.
