Maurin

1. Maurin
   Marran, Mauron

   A kinsman of Arthur who was serving as a soldier of Baldulph, the Saxon.

   Apparently deciding that blood was thicker than water, Mauron betrayed his commander and warned Arthur of Baldulph’s plan to ambush him. Arthur was able to send Cador to slaughter Baldulph’s forces.

   Arthur later appointed him the Earl of Worcester or Winchester.

3. Maurin of the Nimble Shanks

   A knight taken prisoner by Lancelot during the tournament at Dyoflê in Ulrich’s Lanzelet. Ulrich attests to his uncommon speed.

   Lancelot did not particularly want to take prisoners, but decided to take Maurin to let everyone know that he could have taken more if he had wished.
