Thraxton the Braggart was a Northern General and count in the Detinan Civil War. Thraxton was a mage who had a tremendous amount of power but an equally tremendous tendency for his plans to backfire on his Army of Franklin as opposed to the rival army of General Guildenstern. While fighting against the Southrons in earlier battles at Pottstown Pier and Reillyburgh, Thraxton's career misfired. His one true crowning moment of glory came at the Battle of the River of Death when he used a spell to confuse General Guildenstern and routed his army, halted by Doubting George on Merkle's Hill. Thraxton being Thraxton, he soured every claim to this victory in the course of the subsequent battles around Sentry Peak and Proselytizer's Rise and was thus sacked from command of the Army of Franklin.
