Characters

Nineteen colonists woke up above Avalon. These are the ones who matter most, plus a few locals who were there first. Pick a face to read their story.

Mace

The hero · age 20

Mace is of course the main character in the game. On Earth he was a soldier and therefore knows how to fight. He doesn't have much experience though, especially not against alien creatures. Everybody in the village likes Mace, for he is a nice young man with courage. During the first alien attack, it was mostly thanks to him that the village managed to hold the aliens at bay.

Fleur

Villager · age 17

Fleur is a beautiful girl who has been in love with Mace from the very beginning, only she is too shy to tell him. She was one of the first to encounter alien creatures, while she was exploring the forest. During that encounter she had to flee very quickly, and she lost her necklace in the woods.

Lee

Expedition leader · age 32

Lee is the charismatic leader of the expedition to Avalon. He is a very brave man, but unfortunately for him also very over-confident. After the monsters attacked the human village, he thought he could solve the problem himself, and he went to talk to the aliens about peace. This had no effect, except that he was captured and is now being held captive in the Dark Castle.

Tracer

Acting village leader · age 45

Tracer was a very rich man back on Earth, and he literally bought his way onto the ship that would bring the last of humanity to safety. Though he was a strange addition to the crew, he was always very helpful. Until they arrived on Avalon. Since then he has acted strangely, and he talked Lee into going to the aliens, which proved fatal for him. Tracer took control of the village after Lee was gone.

Rednael

Farmer · age 35

Rednael was a farmer, and his knowledge of farming was very useful to the villagers on Avalon. His specialty is chicken farming: the chickens that walk around the village are his. During the first alien attack on the human village, Rednael went missing, and he is believed to have been killed by the aliens.

John

Village elder · age 51

John is the eldest member of the village. He helped defend the village during the first alien attack, but has no actual combat skills. On Earth he was a rocket scientist, and he helped build the spaceship that brought them to Avalon. He is very willing to help with everything, and he's very smart to boot.

Frank

Villager · age 33

Frank is not a very important character in the game, but he has some very strange habits. He's not very brave, and was a computer scientist back on Earth. He is married to Saskia. Because all the computers were lost during the alien attack in which the spaceship was destroyed, he fills his time playing games like golf and tennis. He has great plans and wants to build all kinds of recreation facilities on Avalon.

Saskia

Villager · age 30

Saskia is married to Frank, and is expecting his baby. She also smokes a lot, which is a very bad habit for a pregnant woman. Because of her pregnancy, she wants Mace to succeed more than anyone else in the village.

Willy

Inventor · age 16

Willy and Wally are twins, and very smart. They invented the fuel enhancement that made it possible to build a spaceship that could reach as far as Avalon. Although they know a lot about physics and maths, they are absolute nerds and often say stupid things.

Wally

Inventor · age 16

Wally and Willy are twins, and very smart. They invented the fuel enhancement that made it possible to build a spaceship that could reach as far as Avalon. Although they know a lot about physics and maths, they are absolute nerds and often say stupid things.

Caddman

Former commando · age 37

Caddman was a commando back on Earth. His real name is Nekerps et tiu Gitsal, and he was born in Mongolia. He was the first to discover that Avalon was not as safe as they all wanted it to be, and he started to take precautions. The other villagers just thought he was mad, and when he suddenly disappeared after the alien attack, they thought he had left them to die. Mace doesn't believe that story, but it is a fact that Caddman left at the critical moment and is still nowhere to be seen.

Kreznjerk

Leader of the Syuglooc · age unknown

Kreznjerk is the leader of a small tribe of aliens, the Syuglooc, who would not join the Dark Force alliance against the humans. His kind is very peaceful and advanced, but weak. Kreznjerk thinks the coming of the humans is their only chance of survival, and he has observed the humans from the moment they arrived on Avalon.

Sram

Alien inventor · age unknown

Sram is one of the brightest aliens, and always busy creating new machines. One of his latest creations is a translator that can translate all kinds of languages into others (he called it a “Babel Fish”, but he was not sure why), and he is very eager to sell it. Unfortunately for him, most aliens are not very interested in his goods.

Caw

Alien collector · age unknown

Caw is an alien with a lot of gold to spend. He also has some very strange hobbies for an alien. One of those peculiar hobbies is buying everything that ‘ticks’, such as watches and clocks, objects that are very rare on Avalon.

The chickens

Livestock · age unimportant

The chickens were brought from Earth, and they provide eggs and meat to the little village. Though they do not want to die, now and then a chicken gets slaughtered. Of course all chickens think this is very cruel, but because they also get to walk around the village freely and are fed every day, they tolerate this human behaviour. All they ever say is: “Tok” or “Tok tok!”

A few minor characters are left out, such as the shopkeepers Mark, Alfa, Neorej and Knarf.
