Nathaniel Ayreon-Kalirion

Nathaniel Ayreon-Kalirion (1586-1632) was an Emir of Sathrati and qualitate qua the Patriarch of the Line of Ayreon-Kalirion. He was a former Ruler of Elwynn as well as a former Emperor of Natopia. Prince Nathaniel has also served as the Royal Governor of the Princely Precinct of the Elwynnese Union which is known as the Cape Farewell.

Barbary

In the Barbarian Republic it is believed that Nathaniel returned to his homeland after his death in 1632. He is said to live on the Cliff of the Elders as a demigod. Many relics that supposedly belong to Nathaniel can be sold in the markets on the streets of Arvidsudde. For example, several dozen merchants claim to have formaldehyde filled jars with his eyes for sale.

Jingdao

Nathaniel was known as Catodao in Jingdao and the main character of the presumably lost literary work The Epic of Catodao. The work tells the story how Nathaniel was abducted or adopted, it depends on who you ask, from Barbary in Jingdao.

“I have called my boyfriend who is the King of the Natopians and we have decided to adopt you and raise you as a true Natopian son, your mind will be filled with heresy and you will do evil things."

- Epic of Catodao

In 1607, upon becoming Emperor of the Natopians, Nathaniel was granted his personal coat of arms, which he used as emperor as well. He also used this coat of arms as emperor emeritus, undifferentiated as his successors had their own variations of the coat of arms of Natopia as their own. After Nathaniel's final passing in 1632, his eldest son, Adam, inherited the coat of arms. When Adam was executed in 1644, his only child, Kaiser Ayreon IV, inherited it, and used it as his personal coat of arms in Natopia. Upon Ayreon's death in 1671, the coat of arms was passed to Salome, his eldest child.
