CEI
Cai

Later to re-emerge under the guise of Sir Kay in the Arthurian legends.

Cei was among the party assembled by Culhwch in his quest to locate the maiden Olwen, a story told in the Mabinogion story of Culhwch and Olwen.

Each of the party was chosen for a particular skill or attribute. Cei's talents were his ability to stay for nine days and nights without breathing or sleeping and to change his height at will. In addition, his body temperature was so high that he never got wet, and during the cold his companions could kindle a fire from him.

The other members of the party were Bedwyr (Bedivere), Cynddylig the Guide, Gwrhyr the Interpreter, Gwalchmai fab Gwyar and Menw Fab Teirgwaedd.
