After the fall of the Triarch, he formed the Ruby Vanguard as a way to ensure that no one would ever be able to wield the power of The Ruby Throne again.
Over the years, the members of the Ruby Vanguard have spread out across Terram, quietly recruiting new members and passing down their mission to their children and grandchildren. They have created hidden groups and networks that are waiting for the day when someone will try to use the Ruby Throne again.
The Vanguard's ultimate goal is to keep the Ruby Throne hidden and out of the wrong hands. They will stop at nothing to prevent anyone from using its power to bring chaos and destruction to the world once again.
