King Pellinore of Listinoise is a minor character in Arthurian legend. An older man, father of Sir Aglovale of the Round Table, at times he is a kind, bumbling fool, but at other times he is cunning, cruel, and intelligent. He is also variously depicted as a supporter or an enemy of Arthur and his knights.
Perhaps the most memorable portrayal of him comes from T.H. White's The Once and Future King, where, as one of Arthur's knights, he searches for the Questing Beast and pines for the love of the King of Flanders' daughter.
