Some Members of the Avalon Clan

Avalon Clan is a gargoyle clan that resides on the mystic island of Avalon.

History

The Avalon Clan has its beginnings with the original Wyvern Clan. After the Magus agreed cast upon Goliath the same spell of sleep that he had cast upon the surviving members of the Wyvern Clan, he and Princess Katharine vowed to care for the eggs of the clan. Katharine, along with the Magus, and Tom, now nicknamed "Guardian of the Eggs," set off for her Uncle, King Kenneth's castle. They arrived there in 995 but were promptly driven off by a coup staged by Lord Constantine. The Magus took them to Avalon, where (due to the differences in the passage of time) "The Eggs" hatched in 1058 and grew up in peace and isolation. Many of the hatchlings were named after angels. ("Awakening" Part Two, "Avalon" Part One)

In late 1995, the Enhanced Archmage attacked the clan, injuring many members and threatening to destroy them all. Tom brought Goliath, Elisa and Bronx to the island to help the Clan defeat the Archmage and his allies, the Weird Sisters, as well as his enslaved "troops" Macbeth and Demona. With the help of King Arthur, the Clan was able to win the battle and peace on the island was restored. At this time, Angela, the Clan's second-in-command, left with Goliath, Elisa and Bronx to join them in Manhattan. ("Avalon" Part Two, "Avalon" Part Three) Gabriel, the leader of the Clan, chose his mate Ophelia to be the new second.

Six months later, though about a week had passed on Avalon, Oberon and Titania returned to reclaim the island. Oberon gave the Clan the choice to either leave or be destroyed, but with Titania's aid the Clan not only was given a third option, to defeat Oberon in a hunt, but were also given the clue to defeat Oberon. In the end, though they could have killed Oberon, Tom chose not to and because of this generosity Oberon allowed the Clan to remain and the island, and furthermore they became his Honor Guard, immune from his magic. ("Ill Met By Moonlight")

The Clan will again be tested in battle upon the return of Queen Mab. It is unclear when this event will occur and even whether the Clan will survive, but the Clan will at least exist in some form in 2198.

The Clan will become one of the ten founding members of the Gargoyle Nation, and it's leader and eggs will be among those kidnapped when the Space-Spawn attack at Queen Florence Island in 2198. It seems likely that Gabriel will be this leader, as less than a decade will pass on Avalon between 1996 and 2198.

Characteristics

The members of the Avalon Clan are of the same "Scottish stock" as the original Wyvern Clan and the Manhattan Clan. Out of the original 36 eggs the composition is:

  • 17 male gargoyles
  • 16 female gargoyles (including Angela)
  • 1 male gargoyle beast
  • 2 female gargoyle beasts

As of 1996, two of the beasts probably have already parented one egg. This egg should hatch in 2038.
