There are non-Avon avatars out there - my favourite so far is the Blake avatar in C S Friedman's Coldfire trilogy
I actually like Vryce quite a bit better than Blake; he grows and changes, and you also get a better sense of what motivates him. The Vryce-Tarrant relationship is wonderful as well; just what Blake-Avon could have been if there had been more time taken to explore it.
Is there any confirmation that these are deliberate avatars, or even that Friedman is familiar with B7? I did a quick spin through her web site once, but didn't find anything there to suggest it.
