And without further ado, the winner of the Archipelago Original Character Contest is:

TheFiveWits' Raphael Albus! An interesting history, a well balanced personality,and a good character in his own right while still fitting into the mythos and world of the Archipelago.

Congrats TheFiveWits, and thank you to everyone who entered! It was fascinating and exciting to see so many great characters inspired by the world of the Archipelago, and I hope they all go on to have interesting stories of their own.
