Through his mother he belonged to the House of Waffel-Paine and through his father he belongs to the Line of Drak.

Biography
Family Background
Nathan was born to Asara and Kyle in the Palace of Haas House in Anmutstadt. His birth was heralded as the true beginning of a new era for the people who lived on Yellow Island. Through his mother, Nathan had Mehl, Neemian, and Hazel ancestry; through his father he had Draconian ancestry. Therefore he and his younger sister, Clara, represent a true unification of the the major peoples of Flaventia.
Nathan and Clara experienced tragedy at a young age when Adam Ayreon-Kalirion murdered their mother. A succession crisis prevented the young Nathan from inheriting the Natopian throne from his mother, and was instead passed over to Nathan's cousin, Zakyyr Angus-Moonoak, who insisted he would only serve as emperor until Nathan came of age. Kyle, who had been appointed the Guardian of Flaventia, feared for his children's safety, and with assurances from High King Harald of Stormark, sent Nathan and Clara away to live in Stormark, as Asara did when she was young. While in Stormark, Nathan and his sister remained under the spiritual care of the Metrobosarch of Lyrica, Sergius Hergones.
On his 8th birthday, Nathan returned to Natopia and assumed his role as Emperor.
He was kidnapped, along with his regent, Christo Eucalyptos, causing a constitutional crisis that left Nathan's distant cousin, Vidar Ayreon-Kalirion, as the Regent of Natopia for a few years.
Adult life
Ever since childhood, Nathan II and Ayreon IV were close. After several overtures, the Imperial Advisory Council finally accepted their desire to marry one another, which occurred in 1670, giving Nathan the title Imperial Consort of Shireroth. The couple did not stay married for long, as a year later, Ayreon was killed as one of the first victims of what became the Kalirion Fracture.
Heartbroken, Nathan vowed never to remarry or love any one else. He carried on as emperor through many important events in Natopia's history, such as the Uppheaval, which saw the end of all Vanic practices in the Bovic Empire and a realignment of foreign policy from being pro-Storish to becoming anti-Storish.
In 1704, citing bad health, Nathan II abdicated in favour of his eldest child, Nathan III. The remaining years of Nathan's life were characterized by ill health, with Nathan III's last public engagement being the funeral of his son Nathan III. About a year later, Nathan II succumbed to illness and died. He wished for no public funeral, thinking he was now past his abdication a mere private citizen, with his family having a private ceremony.
His remains were interred along with his husband's in the Valley of Mors, being the only Natopian emperor to have been buried there.
Children
Nathan did not have any children with his husband, but had four children created from his own DNA: Nathan III, Vadoma, Leonora, and John, all born in 1671. Two of his children succeeded him as emperor, firstly, upon his abdication, Nathan III until the latter's death in 1716, and thereafter Vadoma.
