Avalon

Avalon does not remember much of her childhood - the memories of freedom were wiped away by the pain of becoming a Spellbreaker. Whatever flashes of memory she does have are tainted, like a black veil pulled over her eyes in the name of loyalty.

Avalon grew up in poverty, spending most of her time roaming the streets of Eskarya, seeing all too often the might of the Empire when someone was accused of magic without license. When Avalon began noticing the smell of magic, she was scouted by members of the Conclave of Arcanum and taken in to train as a Spellbreaker herself. What followed was the erasure of these memories, using an almost systematic method which coloured all Mages an atrocity.

Avalon would commit many of these atrocities herself, following orders without question. She would spend most of her career within the walls of Eskarya, as having grown up there, she knew the place well.

It would not be until she was ordered to arrest those that were resisting conscription that Avalon would break out of her trance-like state of being, and Avalon discovered a group of women, able-bodied but terrified, hiding in abandoned buildings and ready to fight for their chance of escape. Avalon would finally see the veil lifted, and would instead offer to help them escape, escorting them to Tosima herself.
