Marco Avila

Marco Avila is a Men of Letters legacy dedicated to keeping Yokoth bound.

Background
Marco's great-grandfather Diego Avila was a member of the Men of Letters who fought in World War I. His experiences in World War I drove Diego insane, which Marco describes as "Jim Jones style" to the point that all he could see was blood and violence.

In 1925, Diego performed a a summoning spell that led to the release of a goddess named Yokoth who slaughtered Diego and some of his comrades. After Yokoth was bound, the survivors managed to close the rift Diego opened and bind Yokoth before she could succeed.

In the aftermath, the Men of Letters disavowed the entire incident, banned all the survivors and sealed the chapter house. Unable to kill Yokoth, the survivors and their descendants, led by Diego's family, worked to keep Yokoth sealed up. This continued onto Marco and his sister who continued to monitor the bunker where Yokoth was trapped.
