![]() The serialized nature of Babylon 5 means it is eminently spoilable. Pitched as "a five year story, a novel for television," Babylon 5 featured a serialized story before it was common for primetime television to do so. Alwyn is noted for having a particular fondness for gold dragons.Babylon 5 is a sci-fi space opera that ran from 1994 to 1999.After faking his demise, Alwyn departed the planet aboard his ship. Gideon then used the Excalibur's main gun to "kill" Alwyn, destroying the mine and forcing Earthforce to start a new mine away from the villages. Gideon convinced Captain Daniels that Alwyn could use the mine as a focus to blow the Medusa out of the sky. Alwyn comandeered the mine, scared away the workers, and pretended to prepare a terrible spell. Hearing that, he realized that he had stayed too long and that the colonists had started to become dependent on him.Īlwyn, Galen, and Gideon created a plan to trick Earthforce and help the colonists without violence. He told the villagers to release the hostages, but they declared that they didn't need to be reasonable as long as they had Alwyn on their side. When the desperate villagers took hostages and Captain Daniels of the EAS Medusa sent marines to seize the villagers, Alwyn stopped them using enhanced holo-demons. He tried to convince both the colonists and Gideon to avoid violence and to try to get Earthforce to move the mine via peaceful means, but warned Gideon that if Earthforce brought guns and bombs, he would stop holding back and would kill the attackers. He invited them into his home, and showed them how badly the mine was hurting the colonists. Alwyn found them on the planet and prevented suspicious villagers from assaulting them, pretending that they were working for him. When Galen and Captain Gideon came to Regula IV to investigate the problems affecting the mine, Galen heard that the dragon seen by the miners was golden with red eyes, and knew that Alwyn must be involved. The mining was actually forcing many colonists out of their homes, destroying their water supply, making them ill, and even threatening their lives. Although he injured nobody, deliberately holding back his power, Earthforce labeled him a "terrorist". ![]() When they began to strip-mine the planet, Alwyn tried to make them move the mine away from the villages, using pranks and non-violent displays of technomancy, such as replacing engines with goo and conjuring holographic dragons. ![]() In 2267, after the Drakh plague infected Earth, Earthforce discovered a mineral on Regula IV that could be used to help combat the virus. The colonists came to greatly admire him. Acting as the settlement's local wiseman, he dispensed advice on practically everything and tried to help people with their problems. He believed that the techno-mages had a responsibility to stay and help other people, and that leaving during the Shadow War was "rank cowardice".Īlwyn traveled to Regula IV where he settled along with human colonists. He didn't leave with the others of his Order when they departed known space in 2259. Alwyn often disagreed with Galen's mentor Elric, though he considered him to be a good man. He was fond of Galen and had known his father. ![]()
