Secrets of Avalon
Story:
Explore the Great Covenant of Avalon, a gathering of allied representatives on their home planet, as Dere Aislinn; a girl who lost her memory at the same place three years ago. Were your memory loss to be discovered it would be at great strain to your family. Without getting caught, uncover the mystery of your amnesia while navigating between politics and romance. Evade political, social, and sometimes physical dangers to regain what you’ve lost or choose to move beyond your forgotten history. Aid in the exploration of an ancient archaeological site while putting Avalon’s political stability at risk or help maintain the current status quo. While maybe along the way finding life-long friends or unexpected romance…

Personal Description of Fate Maker Games:
I’m Suru (though I also often go by Aura and Ash in online forums), the founder of Fate Maker Games. I love crafting stories and worlds for people to learn about and explore and thought an interesting way in which to do so was through the virtual novel medium. This is Fate Maker Games first project, with many storyboards and notes for future games connected to this world.

Characters:
Dere Aislinn – Our Protagonist. A half-elf whose very existence is frowned upon by members of the elven race. Guide Dere in her choices to survive the Covenant meeting friends to support her or push away allies and make it by herself.
Odryn Aislinn – Our Protagonist’s older half-brother. Unlike Dere, Odryn is a full elf. He is also a capable magic-user and rather clever in his own right. He has his own agendas at the Covenant that doesn’t include constantly babysitting his sister, but often feels he needs to. Powerful and calculating Odryn can come off as cold or even cruel but claims to have the best in mind for his sister.
Christian Van Daken – Crown Prince of Avalon. Christian holds to the ideal that he needs to be a regal Prince and always put forward that image. He is thoughtful and wants the best for his kingdom and citizens. He doesn’t always get along with his younger brother Anton, who could or could not be capable of making him break his Princely demeanor.
Anton Van Daken – Prince of Avalon. Younger brother to Christian. Anton is almost always up to no good. While Christian takes his position and image very seriously Anton doesn’t seem to care. He’s always sneaking off when he should be somewhere. It’s as if he is more comfortable in shadows than light.
Javion Raske – Genius Inventor and often jerk. Javion tends to assume he’s the smartest person in a room, and he’s not often wrong. He finds the whole Covenant to be a waste of his time but still forced to attend by his family. He’d much rather be working on his inventions. While his forced attendance could be the reason for his horrible attitude, it’s probably just his personality.
Casidra Wears – Alien anthropologist. Casidra is in attendance for the joint purpose of excavating nearby runes found on Avalon as well as to build more business relationships with people at the Covenant. She is a friendly, warm person – until you endanger her site.
Lana Soliss (“SOLL-iss”) – Lana is a dancer and not a part of the usual circles for the Covenant – she earned her spot through a scholarship program. She is generally unimpressed with anyone (but the Princes) and wants little to do with much of the covenant (except the Princes). She doesn’t seem to get along with most of the attendees and nor do many appear to like her. Nickname: Soul less – ‘granted’ by Javion.
Thaddeus Harcourt – One of the richest men in Avalon. Thaddeus is the head of a self-made business empire that began small and bloomed into one of the largest groups to trade with other planets. He is well-spoken and friendly.
No Current Photo
Davis Kenway – Captain of one of Avalon’s military ships and considered to be a war hero. He’s friendly and usually relaxed for a military member, but also an infamous womanizer.
No Current Photo
Alyth Edmonds – Granddaughter of a famous general. She takes her position very seriously and has a distaste of Davis’ carefree attitude.
No Current Photo
Bethany Raske – Bethany is an event planner for the Covenant and aids in keeping social interactions a common part of attendance. Javion’s aunt.
No Current Photo
Triskel – Elven teacher. He is a tutor for Christian and Anton. He is also the Covenant teacher for Avalonian History.
No Current Photo
Roison Conghaile – Roison is a summer elf from the Elven homeworld. She has a small history with Odryn and is at the Covenant at her family’s behest.
