Baron Danforth Octavio was the ruler of Harmondale in the early 800s AS, which at the time was controlled by Erathia. He was the representative of King Aaron Gryphonheart IV in the region, tasked with keeping order and raising taxes for the king. Due to his exhausting tax collection methods, the people of Harmondale rose up against their ruler in 817 AS, and the Baron was torn to pieces in the street. They then elevated Ty Vespin, mayor of the town, to King of Harmondale.
