Ayden am Beldari (ay-den)
Lord Baron Ayden am Beldari
Ayden became Baron of Minsloth only in the last year. His father died of a painful bone malady, and was confined to his bed for more than 3 years. While he was sick, Ayden managed his affairs to the best of his ability. He quickly learned just what he could and couldn't effectively change or control as Baron and applied this knowledge to the benefit of both his own personal standing and wealth AND to the barony as a whole.
Ayden's father Amon was the first Beldari to be made Baron of Minsloth, and he got the title and position because of the failings of Godric am Mollus, the disgraced noble executed in 216 AF. Ayden and his family have been in a blood feud with the Mollus family since then.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Ayden is driven by a desire to make himself and his family as powerful and as influential as possible. Wealth, influence, position and authority are all very real goals in his life. He does value honesty and honor, but he values his successes in life just a little bit more.
Social
Contacts & Relations
Ayden is popular amongst most of his political peers, with the only exceptions being the Duke of Lorancourt and the Baron of Beldoah, whom both seem to dislike him for reasons unknown.
Family Ties
Ayden is married to Mira Maxalli, the younger sister of King Mak II of Lesser Imesse. This gives him ties to power and wealth and great influence, but places him under much scrutiny as well.
Ayden has also made overtures to the Duke of Hekmo to possibly arrange a marriage between his daughter, Adella Beldari and one of the Duke's younger sons. Both Ayden and his wife agree that this is an excellent means by which to build influence and connections with the Royal Court of Northridge. Ayden's brother-in-law and King, Mak II, is not in favor of this, however, as he is most loath to see his neice wed to that family. This has caused much tension between Minsloth and Southridge over the last several months.
