Lord Mayall
Lord Preston Lawrence Mayall of simply Lord Mayall is a minor Marokan nobleman of the rank of earl of the Mayall family. A member of the merchant's guild. An successful businessman and industrialist. Owner of Jeft and Mayall trading Co., that deals in dry goods, import and export. He was the son of the original Jeft and Mayall trading company as a co owner and as his father took over the whole business after the other co-owner Henri Jeft was imprisoned and executed for the involvement of their company in the Thorin Expedition Scandal, the elder Lord Mayall took over the entire company and eventually, Preston inherited all the Mayall estate including the business.
Being the sole heir, Preston was frivolous and would have lost all their assets due to his exuberant spending and bad management if not for the intervention of his trusted butler in the behest of his mother. He did not take the meddling of his mother and in a fit of childish rage, Preston ran away and disappeared for a while. It was known that his did still possessed quite a some of money and was rumored to have started underground trading and was in no time, entangled in the complex and treacherous black market scene.
Of course the lady Mayall, his mother was always keeping an eye on her son, and last she heard was that Lord Preston was beginning to be associated with the shady Larnic based company ran by the despicable Gnomes. She tried to have Preston brought back in secret before a scandal arose but this drove Lord Preston Mayall deeper undergruond and the Lady Mayall lest contact with him for a year and a half.
Until one morning a letter was sent to Lady Mayall that Lord Preston will be coming back home to resume his role as the Mayall business Chairman. Lord Mayall recounted to his mother that he grew tired of the treacherous dealings of the black market and wished to be in a legitimate business and promised that he's turn in a new leaf, which his mother readily believed and was extremely happy.
Many notices the sudden changes in Preston's behavior, as he was not less seen in the seedy parts of town and had handled the company with such adeptness that made it grew rapidly in the realm of Marokan commerce. He seemingly abstained from drinking alcohol and excessive eating. However he did not seemed to lose weight even evidently less food intake.
The once sedentary and slow, obese Lord was now a lively and active but still corpulent men. He also seemed to be more charming with the ladies but are now not ever seen or known to have laid with one since his return, he does bring business partners to the brothels and advocated their patronage and most of the time, would gladly sponsor their carnal adventures.
His reasons were that he's "cleansing" his person and would not be able to partake in the pleasures of the flesh for a while. Some of his friends and partners speculated that he may have somehow abused his self so much in over indulgence that he developed impotence. but the truth was still unknown. His chance was a mystery but to the delight of his mother till her death.
Since Lord Mayall was the only offspring, he further inherited his mother's estate which was a more substantial fortune. In the public eye he was seen as somewhat of a clown with infinite sense of humor and a sharp wit. Exceedingly cunning and greedy. Some of his were eventually accepted as the norm as time goes by and had been pegged as just eccentric.
He previously had a low gravely voice, he loved to shout at people and hurl insults every opportunity he gets, now he's jovial and his voice was a melodious baritone, his speech pattern more poetic and sometimes cryptic. His business acumen was also elevated and somehow managed to learn practices only the elite of merchants know, trade secrets. Others speculate that perhaps, his tirade with the underground was beneficial to him after all, and most were amazed that he's the few that was able to escape the mire of the underground syndicate alive.
However, the truth about Lord Mayall's success was dark and terrible, and his mother was fortunate that she did not live to know the truth behind her son, Lord Preston Lawrence Mayall. This façade of virtue and success, belies the extent of his depraved reach. While he held a position of power within the guild and had a sworn duty to uphold the values and morals of a fair merchant, as well as the governing laws of trade within the dominion, Lord Mayall was also harboring a sinister and clandestine role.
Unbeknownst to the public eye, Lord Mayall assumed the role of the head and founder of the insidious Gnomish Enterprise. This shadowy organization specialized in the sinister realms of death, engaging in the illegal and morally reprehensible research and development of weaponry. Their malevolent trade extended to the production and distribution of devastating products, designed with the explicit intent of arming nefarious individuals and groups.
The dissonance between Lord Mayall's public persona and his concealed activities was staggering. As he mingled with high society, charming and charismatic, his true influence seeped into the darkest recesses of the realm. The duality of his character extended beyond his eccentric behavior, delving into the depths of corruption and malfeasance.
His position within the Gnomish Enterprise afforded him unparalleled power, enabling him to manipulate the flow of illicit goods and deadly innovations with calculated precision. His mastery of the intricate dance between light and darkness became the cornerstone of his success, fueling the expansion of his legitimate enterprises while secretly cultivating the tendrils of his nefarious empire.
Behind closed doors, Lord Mayall orchestrated a macabre symphony of commerce, greed, and exploitation. The values he purported to uphold in the daylight were rendered meaningless in the face of his insatiable hunger for power and influence. His mother, shielded from this horrific truth, was spared the heart-wrenching revelation of the abyss into which her beloved son had descended.
In the annals of history, the name Lord Preston Lawrence Mayall is etched with a chilling reminder of the depths to which a man's soul can plummet, hidden beneath the veneer of charm and respectability. His legacy serves as a cautionary tale, a stark reminder that even the most celebrated figures can harbor the darkest of secrets, capable of weaving a tapestry of deception and malevolence that forever stains the fabric of time.
