- “This set was supposed to take place in the Arcadia downtown museum, but it did not seem fitting for a secret Janus Order base. So I just took the floor from the museum and built most of the Janus Order from that.”
- ―Facundo Rabaudi, Modeler[src]
The Janus Order was an organization of Changelings that served Gunmar as his loyalists and spies to free him and his Gumm-Gumm Army from the Darklands.
History
The Janus Order was formed by Changelings and organized separate bases around the Earth. Their decisions were usually guided by an ancient evil witch named Morgana, who would usually speak to them through an old turntable.
The first and only known headquarters of the Order was located underneath Arcadia Oaks, five stories beneath an abandoned travel agency called Omni-Reach Travels, whose entrance opens to say "Where two faces meet" on the office phone.
After Gunmar (along with Dictatious) escape the Darklands, the Order finds them and brings them into their base to care for them. However, ever since Gunmar's return to the surface world, Morgana has ceased complete contact with the Order.
The Order was finally eliminated and its members were murdered by Gunmar after he no longer saw any utility on them, having decided to create his army in Heartstone Trollmarket.
