Squire Daryn Braxos of the Duchy of the Iron Mountains
Biography
Squire Daryn Braxos, also known as the Squirrel King, started playing Amtgard on 20 June 2015. His first day, he wore nothing but a bed sheet closed with twine.
His passion for crafting resulted in virtually ceaseless questioning of the Iron Mountains Masters which attracted the attention of Grand Duke Sir Grix. Grix offered to make Daryn a squire and facilitated the creation of his first suit of rudimentary leather armor. Upon the chest of the armor rests a tooled crest of a squirrel holding a key in front of a compass rows.
"I was making my first bit of garb [a light blue wool sluff coat] and I knew I wanted to embroider something on the back. I like squirrels, so that was a given, but I wanted it to hold something. I had a cast iron key sitting on my table and, so, I thought, 'Hey, that'll work'."
The coincidental heraldry has since yielded a persona backstory. Read the section below for the current lore.
Daryn also likes to play bard and frequently sings the incorrect lyrics to most songs.
