The Legend of Camelot is so Anglo-Saxon that to have a POC in any of the main chars would really seem out of place. (Just my opinion) Except for Lancelot? Right? Lancelot is, since they already cast that role. And I could see Merlin being something other than Anglo-Saxon, being that he is a wizard, and generally of unknown origin. Maybe for that matter, I could see Morgan Le Fey as non-Anglican.

Maybe have Morgan Le Fey be more Slavic or Old World Hispanic. While Merlin could maybe be more Far Eastern or Indian.

But Arthur and Gwen, at least, should be Anglo. The Knights of the Round Table could be of mixed heritage. In fact, if you take the legend and twist it so that the Knights of the Roung Table are reputed to be the greatest knights in the world that were gathered by Arthur, it would even make sense.
