The Harbingers of Light is a strange, elitist and very religious splinter fraction of the much larger Church of Light. The Harbingers of Light believe in actively opposing what they define as "evil", i.e. seeking out wrongdoers and ideally make them repent their sins.
The "average" cultist of the Harbingers of Light is one twisted fellow, if he is to be judged from what he believes in. Nevertheless, the Harbingers of Light count at least 20.000 members spread all over the United States, though they are more numerous in the "Bible Belt".
The cultist usually attend special masses held for them in churches dressed all in white, to symbolize their purity, that they are the white future of Mankind, and that it is easy to get hold of white bedsheets and cut holes in the middle of them. They are all big on silver or golden crusifixes, preferrably large ones, and usually carry them around all the time.
The Harbingers of Light are essential Christian in outlook, but have a race theory closely following that of the White Aryan Front. Summarizing, if you're not white and believe in the Trinity, there's no other place for you to go except to Hell. Not a very cheering world-view, now is it?
However, they are not directly violent per se, and usually refrain from escalating their efforts from the level of cat-calling and bad soliloquis. There is (at least) one exception to this policy to satisfy the more militant of the Harbingers of Light, namely what is called the "Avatar of Light". This more militant branch of the Harbingers of Light is not known to the public, and this is the way they prefer it.
The Avatar of Light is a champion, or The Champion, of the Harbingers of Light. It is unknown if there is more than one avatar at any given time, as no more than one have been seen at any given time. It is also unknown if there are several avatars, who take turns wearing the Avatar armor. If so, it would explain the extreme endurance and fortitude exhibited by the Avatar of Light.
The Avatar of Light is characteristic in his white plate armor, usually surrounded by a soft glow probably emanating from the armor. The Avatar of Light is decked out in Medieval battle equipment - a large, white kite shield with a cross in gold marked on it, and a longsword with a golden crossguard and grip, decorated with gold along the centre of the blade (again imitating a cross). The tunic of the Avatar is also decorated by this omnipresent cross, as is the helmet. The helmet completely obscures and protects the head and face of the Avatar, and golden lenses set into the eyeholes of the armor probably acts as vision enhancers. The covered eyeholes are situated in the horizontal stripe of the cross enameled or painted on the white helmet of the Avatar. In addition to this, there is a large, ornate, silver crusifix slung around the neck of the Avatar, hanging down on his chestplate.
The Avatar of Light have an annoying or virtuous (depending on religious beliefs) tendency to spout quotations and proclamations during combat.
Examples: "I will cast you down, Spawn of the Devil!" "The Holy Blade will slay your impure spirit!" "Suffer in the face of God's Wrath, infidel!"
