Liverpool Avalon

The Liverpool Avalon (Also known as the L.A) is an Avalon located in the warehouse district of Liverpool, structured on the outside to look like a mundane, if very large, storage warehouse. To allow sunlight in, but prevent an aerial view into the Avalon, the celiing has a one-way transparency, appearing as a typical roof from the outside.The main entrance to the Avalon is watched by Django Henja, while Alec Hyde guards the hallways separating the entrance and the town inside from any unwanted visitors.

People from around the world come to live and meet in this Avalon, with places of origin including Wales, Ireland, Czech Republic, and America. The town itself has been around since the middle ages, even before it became necessary for mythical creatures to go into hiding. Unlike most other Avalons, which typically consist of small meeting places or shops, the Liverpool Avalon is actually the largest Avalon in the world, resembling a small town capable of providing housing for a few hundred residents. This is accomplished through the very efficient use of most available space. Houses are narrow and multileveled, and due to the large number of winged residents, ground level entrances that might take up space are not always present. The main species in the liverpool avalon are Gryphons, nemean lions, Fauns, and Satyrs.
