Nathan Waffel-Paine (born Nathan Shepherd in 1455) was a long-lived Natopian and Elwynnese statesman, who was Emperor of Natopia until 1557, Duke of Elwynn (c.1552-1555), and Prince of Elwynn (1586-1589). While in Elwynn, Nathan adopted the surname Dariolin (he was briefly known as Sigurd of Ettlingar Freyu during the Froyalan days). While in Athlon, and while fulfilling his duties as Pentheros of the Bovic Church, he used the name Theodores Athanatos. In Stormark he adopted the name Sighard Gafolgyld. He was the son of Ædwynne Shepherd (1420-1500) and Jaynae Shepherd (née Lindenstream) (1425-1505)
Nathan was married to William for a brief time before William's death. William was from Cerulea. They adopted no children.
The family of Nathan is very hard to discern. As he lived a very long time most of it has been buried under the weight of history. When Nathan came to rule Athlon during Athlon's very first years he took on the Greek patronymic naming convention, "Theodores Piotesanthropou Dozes" which alludes to the name of his father: "Piotesanthropou" which in early Natopian was written as AEdwynne. His mother, Jaynae was mentioned briefly in the very early records. They would have had his old family name, Shepherd, and not the dynastic name he chose for himself (Waffel-Paine, which itself has no bearing on the family's origin). He had no siblings, hence his ruling name epithet "Nathan the Only."
His entire family is ethnically Mehl, except for Mona the Traveler, who is of unknown origin, but obviously passed on some longevity genes to Nathan. Before Nett Opaegh, there were no written records among the ethnic Mehl so we see a very sudden modernization take place over only a few generations. Beyond these immediate family members whose birth and death dates could have been written down from verbal records, any other ancestors are lost to pre-history.
Married to William Strauss from 1548 to 1559 when it was annulled by the Pentheros. Nathan was then married to Elijah from 1588 until Elijah's death in 1598. He did not remarry.
He has two children: Naian Moonoak (sired with Guinevere Moonoak) and Nathaniel Ayreon-Kalirion (adopted with Elijah Ayreon).
Nathan served as the 21th and 30th ruler of Elwynn, first as a duke and second as Prince of sovereign Elwynn.
Nathan died on the floor of the Elwynnese Senate in 1589, taking a bullet intended to assassinate his husband, Elijah. Nathan was, however, resurrected as a being made of pure butter. His second life was haunted by the fact that he was now a divine entity. This caused his reign to tend towards instability, and eventually decay and insanity. He melted in 1607, aged 152, finally allowed to die permanently.
