The Avalon Council
The faction responsible for arbitrating disputes with between the other seven factions. The Law Givers of New Horizon. Avalon represents the central government, which presides over other governments, the other governments are all part of the working process of Avalon.
The Avalon Council doesn't really count itself as a faction. The Avalon Council is an international organization whose stated aims are facilitating cooperation in international law, international security, economic development, social progress, human rights, and the achieving of world peace. It contains multiple subsidiary organizations to carry out its missions. All the 7 factions of New Horizon, Aquilon's Reach, the Port of Narehl, the New Chanian Conclave, the Missive Union, Trapper Town, Warhead Keep, and Xanadu, are members of the Avalon Council.
Avalon Septumvir: Peregrine Smythe.

Titania Mosphin (The Leader of Avalon)
Background Information:
Once the youngest Septumvir in New Horizon, Titania Mosphin quickly became histories youngest Grand Arbiter, and the only one to ever serve two consecutive terms in office. Titania is a woman of unrivaled political and business savvy, one who cannot be taken lightly by anyone.
Titania is a rather tragic figure. She was an excellent Arbiter, who held the title in a time of crisis, a crisis ironically of her own making. Treason was the least of her crimes, made with the best of intentions, yet virtually destroyed the world regardless.

Alabaster
Race: Aesir Wafan Gender: Male
> 2490:
2470 - 2490:
Appearance:
Alabaster is a grizzled looking older male Aesir Wafan in his late thirties. He has medium grade armor and an energy pistol weapon on each hip. He is also fairly solidly built.
Background Information:
Alabaster is the former crèche mate of Kaleb, these two were born and raised in a Aesir and Vanir joint crèche, a very rare thing. They both took different paths, one an outlaw, but Alabaster was ever the prodigal son and worked his way up the law enforcement ranks until he became the High Marshall for the entire Walk of Man.
Before 2490 he was a member of The Voice of the West but then he was kicked "upstairs" for personality conflict reasons. During 2470 he was a member of a Sheriff's Posse for a time.

He was raised in Trapper Town and he is the only remaining member of his family, although he follows them in politics. Extensively audits the other factions to maintain government transparency. Fights for equitable exchange rates of raw materials exported from the Walk of Man. Alabaster has to this day 135 arrests on his account, and 40 kills in the line of law enforcement duty.
Additional Information:
Those who wish to help protecting the land should report to Trapper Town and sign up for a job as deputy of the Allied Regional Militia (ARM). Talk to either Kaleb or Alabaster in Trapper Town for an admission into the ARM, which cost one Geodite. Each member will be given a numbered badge and work to keep them busy and our land clean.
Alabaster is the High Marshal or Trapper Town. High Marshall essentially amounts to Alabaster being the man who takes the reports from all the sheriffs and marshals in the entire Walk of Man, and has to deal with all their problems. He's also the local ARM contact.

Hubart Savant
Background Information:
Hubart is brilliant by any standards one might care to place against him. He's dabbled in all areas of science, but excels in Wafan design as well as weapons and armor engineering, and has often been likened to a Blacksmith. In his youth, he was little more than a stuck up aristocrat of Avalon, but when he was foolish enough to run away from home against his Creators wishes to join the army fighting in the Core Stealer war, he was forced to grow up much earlier than he ordinarily would have needed to.
Now that he's a war veteran, older and more seasoned, Hubart is a wise leader, and lends his technical and military insight to Arbiter Titania, even though he holds no formal office. Much to his chagrin, he finds his own daughter, Dyani, rebelling against him, much as he did his own father. But despite all this, his disposition is so down to earth, most people find him unnerving at times.
As a fighter, Hubart is just about top notch, but no match for Selaya with ner new powers, and certainly no match for an entire army. In battle, Hubart is a fearsome foe who can create virtual reality constructs in real space to hinder his foes, and provide himself with a decisive tactical advantage.
Height: 6'2", Gender: Male, Weapon: Wind Elemental Powers, Gigantic Axe.

Dolly
Background Information:
Dolly, though formally trained by New Chania, had her extensive medical and engineering tuition sponsored by The Council of Avalon, and is a member of their famous Nurses Engineering Corps, specialists in human and Wafan medicine/engineering often sent on missions of mercy all around the Globe, earning them the nickname Horizons Angels.
Dolly is a specialist in Wafan DNA souls, and is well known for her ability to bring Wafan back even after they should have passed so far across the line of recovery there shouldn't be anything left to save. Despite her professional acumen, Dolly is well known as a bit of a flake as far as social interactions. She is also being stalked by a small Ferret like Cyber Elf named Espoir, which is perfectly content to let others see it, but hovers just out of her site and vanishes whenever anyone else points it out to her. This has led her to believe her co-workers have a conspiracy to drive her insane.

Norman
Background Information:
A Wafan that's easy to pass off as 'some stupid fat guy.' Chubby red cheeks, and big nose and little piggy eyes make him look harmless, but belly his cunning intelligence. While Norman is perhaps the single most depressing Wafan to ever live, and often communicates poorly, he is in fact the nerve center of the Council of Avalons small military forces.
Height: 6'0", Gender: Male, Weapon: Remote Drones.
