Peppino Lazan

Peppino Lazan is a feles who was head of a Garfist Mafia in the city of Felesia. He also baked food, primarily lasagna as a traditional Garfist treat. He later decided to escape Rathnir due to the world being hit with Iristor.

Early life 0 - 18 (212 TE - 230 TE)
Peppino Lazan was born in 212 TE in the city of Felesia. He was to inherit a Garfist Mafia from his father, Salada Lazan. He was baptized around a year after birth in the Felesian Garfist Church, he soon made a useful addition to Felesia due to his ability to make lasagna, which is a primarily Garfist dish.

Salada Lazanwas (Peppino's Father) well known around Felesia, particularly in the Northwall region. Salada met many influential people in Felesia including Morfetico Humblewood, an experienced architect who was also a borough leader.

In 230 TE Salada Lazan (Peppino's Father) was shot and killed in a mafia fight in the slums of Northwall. Peppino dragged his corpse to the bakery he bought recently. He cried over his father's corpse and his world was shattered. A few hours later he buried his father in the cemetery next to Garf's temple, upon his father's death he inherited the mafia.

Young Adulthood 18 - 35 (230 TE - 247 TE)
After the death of his father Peppino started baking goods for Felesia and occasionally selling them at the market, during this time he met many people. The most notable person he met were Luke Greencoat, the mayor of Felesia.

He attended church regularly and he watched the beautiful city build up and grow. He was amazed with all the progress the town was achieving. He was happy and cheerful, he was baking which he loved and he had forged many bonds. This was his prime.

Unfortunately in 240 TE war erupted between Libertalia'o Valondor and Tortuga. Peppino was disturbed by this news and when he heard that the Valondoris had lost the Battle of Rosa, he knew it was over for Valondori rule over Felesia. After the conflict Felesia came under the rule of Tortuga.

After the Valondori rebellion the unholyzification of Garfist State of Greenstem occured. This was sanctioned by the Tortugan government due to the arbiter Frederick Greencoat being involved in the rebellion. Frederick Greencoat chose to pass on Garfield's Will to his grandson Greencoat. Felesia quickly became a center of Garfism, so they brought many documents and artifacts of Garfism to Felesia. There was not room for this so Morfetico Humblewood built a grand library to hold all of these artifacts and scriptures. Morfetico also built a cathedral to hold Garfield's Tail.

Middle Ages 36 - 64 (248 TE - 276 TE)
A passage from Peppino's diary written in 264 TE reads: "Last night I was visited by an entity, I presumed it was Garfield. He came to me whilst I was sleeping with a vision of the future it was bloody and terrible, Garfield said onto me, 'Child, the future will be wrought with strife and violence along with something terrible, though I cannot tell you. All I have to say is, keep your faith in me and you will be okay.' When I awoke from this vision I was startled and realized this world won't last forever. I should start coming to term with this."

In 271 TE, Captain Humblewood obtained the leadership of Greenstem through the city's former leader. Peppino was glad that the city was back under Garfist hands because it was the holy city. Unfortunately, by the time he acquired leadership the city became a ghost town and he did not have the resources to repopulate the city.

The Future (277 TE - 319 TE)
In 287 TE a cargo of I.H. (Induztria O Humblewood) cannons went missing on it's way to Apple Harbor, in a under-the-table deal with Captain Humblewood it was given to the Lazan family mafia.

In 292 TE Spades Maitonoki of Valondor announced the merging of Felesia, Neora, and Akratia city. The purpose of this was to reunite Garfism in one whole form. Peppino, upon hearing this news was overjoyed that diplomacy and peace was used to revive Garfism, not violence. Even though there was war, strangely no battles were fought and a event would later would shake Rathnir to it's core.

In 299 TE, at the World's Fair's event it was announced by StoneyStoner that in about 21 years that the entity Iristor would hit the world of Eldham as well as Rathnir, Peppino was sad but determined to find a way to continue his life, it was also announced that a new world would be formed and would be the safe haven for people escaping Iristor's wrath. Another thing happened though, the crazed entity declared war on the entire world of Rathnir being on Eldham's side. This lead to the war of the comet. This lead to massive chaos and crumbling of entire nations. Peppino knew that this was what Garfield was talking about in his vision so long ago.

In 306 TE the coronation of the Akratian Emperor, Ayedren Arkos happened. Captain Humblewood ventured there representing Garfists, this helped ease tensions between Garfists and Akratians. Anyway some of Peppino's lasagnas were served at the coronation to the emperor. Upon knowing of this news Peppino was happy that some of his traditional Garfist dishs was being served to an emperor.

In 319 TE one of his friends, Luke Greencoat, tragically died. Peppino was devastated as he was one of his closet friends in Felesia. He baked a lasagna in his honor and prayed to Garfield that his soul made it safely to Eternal Sunday.

The End of the World (320 TE)
In 320 TE Captain Humblewood passed on his knowledge via the All Knowing Skull to his successor Morn Humblewod Okrin, upon being buried Peppino made Captain Humblewood one last lasagna and laid it near his grave. After this he traveled with Morn and Morpheus (Captain Humblewood's other son) to Greenstem to finish preperations for the air ship they were usign to escape Rathnir. The crew of the airship made one last goodbye to the people who were staying behind to rest with Garfield and other people who were embracing the destruction of the world. Just as they were lifting off Peppino said to himself, "I'm not done just yet." in Semhudi knowing he still had business to finish.

Beginning of the journey
Soon after setting off from Rathnir, the airship crew set a destination to the coordinates where Abexilas was. The location happened to be under in Tae Śoa Holen (The Lands Between in semhudi), this land was barren with endless seas, empty fields and wastelands. Through much of the trip they stopped to supply themselves, often hunting whatever wild life was around.
