Brayden never cared much for his distant past, and so he never bothered to look into it much. All that is known is that in his previous life, he was at one point enlisted in the [[Seraphs|Seven Seraphs]]. His [[Seventh Seraph Officer Revolver]] and [[Seventh Seraph CQC-12|CQC-12]] are all that remains of his past in that regard. Some journals suggest he once had a home in [[Freehold]] on [[Mars]], and may have even been born there. He had distant memories of a wife who served in the [[Cassini]]. For unknown reasons, he was present at [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsburgh,_Pennsylvania Pittsburgh] during [[The Collapse]] and eventually perished there. | |||

During the Dark Age, Brayden was revived by the ghost [[Forum:Freya|Freya]] while inside of a helicopter. The two spent the first few years together roaming around Appalachia, surviving against [[Fallen]], wildlife, and other threats. He recalls being brought back to life multiple times in those years, not even remembering how he died. Eventually, outside the ruins of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roanoke,_Virginia Roanoke], Brayden and Freya encountered the leader of the Fallen in Appalachia, a vicious Fallen Kell known as the [[Forum:Kell of Blades|Kell of Blades]].

Biography
Pre-revival
- "The past is in the past, though sometimes, I can't help but wonder who I used to be."
- — Brayden on the topic of his past
Brayden never cared much for his distant past, and so he never bothered to look into it much. All that is known is that in his previous life, he was at one point enlisted in the Seven Seraphs. His Seventh Seraph Officer Revolver and CQC-12 are all that remains of his past in that regard. Some journals suggest he once had a home in Freehold on Mars, and may have even been born there. He had distant memories of a wife who served in the Cassini. For unknown reasons, he was present at Pittsburgh during The Collapse and eventually perished there.
The Dark Age
- "Back then, we didn't have a Last City, Vanguard, or even Iron Lords. We were on our own, with no guidance."
- — Freya reminiscing on old history
During the Dark Age, Brayden was revived by the ghost Freya while inside of a helicopter. The two spent the first few years together roaming around Appalachia, surviving against Fallen, wildlife, and other threats. He recalls being brought back to life multiple times in those years, not even remembering how he died. Eventually, outside the ruins of Roanoke, Brayden and Freya encountered the leader of the Fallen in Appalachia, a vicious Fallen Kell known as the Kell of Blades. Disgusted by the Kell's enslavement of human settlements, Brayden encountered the Kell of Blades, killed him in combat, and drove the Fallen out of the Appalachian Dead Zone. There, he reigned as the benevolent, but repressive Warlord over all human settlements in the ADZ.
A few years into his rule, Brayden's regime came under threat by fellow Warlord Hestia, who was operating out of the ruins of Brimingham. Hestia had been expanding northwards for some time and had finally reached Brayden's domain. Rather than send his forces in mass, the Risen Warlord decided to challenge Hestia to a duel, which she accepted. Though the fight was brutal, and nearly costed Brayden his life, he emerged victorious, managing to overpower his enemy and snap Hestia's neck. He claimed her Greatsword, which he named The Sovereign's Wrath.
