Tim The EnchanterTim the Enchanter is a fictional character from Monty Python's 1974 movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail, played by John Cleese. His name derives from the following dialogue between him and King Arthur: - Arthur: What manner man are you that you can summon up fire without flint or tinder?
- Tim: I... am an enchanter.
- Arthur: By what name are you known?
- Tim: There are some who call me... 'Tim'?
Tim's appearance in Monty Python and the Holy Grail Tim is met by King Arthur and his knights in scene 20, where he stands on a mountain conjuring fireballs; when they ask him about the holy grail, he leads them to the Cave of Caerbannog. His warnings about the cave's guardian, the Rabbit of Caerbannog, are ignored, though, leading to the death of Gawain, Ector and Bors before the rabbit is killed with the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch. Tim culture Despite only having a minor appearance in the movie, Tim became somewhat of a cult character among Monty Python fans; his legacy lives on in the card Prodigal Sorcerer, which was nicknamed "Tim" after him, as well as the spin-off nicknames "Tim on a stick" (for Rod of Ruin) and "Tim on a ship" (for Pirate Ship).
