Avalon is a game of hidden loyalties, with players divided secretly between loyal servants of King Arthur and the evil minions of Mordred. Merlin supports the side of good, using his powerful magic to divine who amongst your number are evil, but there is dark power opposing you as well. And if Merlin were discovered and killed, surely all hope would be lost. So take care with who you trust, and choose your teams carefully, or the world could very well fall into darkness.
