"There's more to being a Titan than headbutting everything in sight, but it sure is fun."

- Brayden-4

Brayden-4 (also known as Lord Brayden, The Executioner, and The Bane of Blades) is an Exo Titan and former Warlord. He once ruled over the Appalachian Dead Zone before joining The Last City. He is the leader of his own Titan Order, the Eternal Brotherhood.

Pre-revival
"The past is in the past, though sometimes, I can't help but wonder who I used to be."

- Brayden-4 on the topic of his past

Brayden-4 never cared much for his distant past, and so he never bothered to look into it much. All that is known is that in his previous life, he was made into an Exo, was rebooted several times before humanisms were uploaded into his frame. He had distant memories of a wife who served in the Cassini. For unknown reasons, he was present at Pittsburgh during The Collapse and eventually perished there.

The Dark Age
"Back then, we didn't have a Last City, Vanguard, or even Iron Lords. We were on our own, with no guidance."

- Freya reminiscing on old history

During the Dark Age, Brayden was revived by the ghost Freya while inside of a helicopter. The two spent the first few years together roaming around Appalachia, surviving against Fallen, wildlife, and other threats. He calls being brought back to life again and again. Eventually, outside the ruins of Roanoke, Brayden and Freya encountered the leader of the Fallen in Appalachia, a vicious Fallen Kell known as the Kell of Blades. Disgusted by the Kell's enslavement of human settlements, Brayden encountered the Kell of Blades, killed him in combat, and drove the Fallen out of the Appalachian Dead Zone. There, he reigned as Warlord over all human settlements in the ADZ.

The Paradox
"So, this 'Black Swordsman' is uniting all our favorite enemies against us, eh?" "Remember when we only needed to worry about Pirates, Scavengers, and the occasional fellow Warlord?" "Heh, those were the days."
