The 12 Pillars

The current leading power in the world. All twelve are descended from the original twelve pillars, who were disciples of the Column Wilhelm Colton.
Each Pillar carries with them one origin gemstone and live in Avalon, Carnelia when they are not on duty, though they are free to travel as they wish.
