Numbers: Unknown, but very few

Description: The Edóvaen are a secretive order of warriors who have sworn to intervene with Earthia's foreseen destiny.

The Arbiters' Order

Origin: The Second Age, during the war against Nemorok
Center(s): Frionia
Enemies: Valeron and Kardaria
Allies: Aderon, Avengers of the Dawn
Membership: Selective
Numbers: Hundreds

Description: The Arbiters' Order is a circle of free-thinking people, who work together to find ways to fight the growing darkness in the world. They include members of all classes, and have even developed their own discipline after fighting darkness for centuries (the "Arbiter" class). The Order's members are wise, and will seek ways to help the world without starting unnecessary battles. This brings them criticism, but is also the reason an Arbiter is generally called to help with negotiations and other peaceful endeavors. The Arbiters are not pacifists, however, and when there's a need, they are extraordinary in battle.
