Payton Fyreborn

Payton Fyreborn is the Emperor of the Mountainlands, and proclaims himself as the rightful ruler of the entirety of the Elder Mountains.

Early Life
Payton was born on the 12th of Jimni in 823 to a poor farmer family on the outskirts of Daire, in what was the Empire of Pugmoria at the time. Payton grew up as the second son in a family with five children, and was raised as a follower of the Church of Man. He received minimal education, only being taught to read and write by his father, Shane Fyreborn. Not much was expected of young Payton, it was assumed he'd become a farmer like his father, and his father before him.

Discovery of Ancient Relics
Payton Fyreborn's life changed when discovered a cache of Old Ones artifacts on the outskirts of the Fyreborn Farm on the 18th of Sagitor 846 ARM. He found what appeared to be the regal outfit of an ancient Old Ones kings, as well as an ancient star-tablet with a partially complete recording of an ancient Old Ones work. Payton secretly listened to this old work and wrote it down while the star-tablet still functioned, it stopped working after Payton had acquired some writings from the Old Ones work. With the knowledge gained from the Old Ones, Payton believed that he was divinely chosen by the Old Ones to free his peoples and spread the word of Man.

On the 8th of Cander, Payton went into the nearby town of Daire, dressed in the regal Old Ones outfit, and began to proselytize. He proclaimed himself the chosen King of the Mountainlands, Man's divine representative on the Earth, destined to free the foxes and badgers from the colonial rule of the Pugmorians. Most dismissed him, and the local police asked him to stop about 20 minutes into his speech, but there were those who felt swayed by his speech.

Rise to Prominence
Following his first speech, Payton met with three people that felt particularly moved by his words. These three original followers would go on to be Payton's closest allies; Nathan O'Kennedy, Logan Doolan, and Rory O'Moore.
