Lord Aiden Fafnir Lord Aiden Fafnir is the leader of this band of mischievous madrigal mongers. Raised within Irish nobility, he also possesses a fondness for mythical creatures since his family was named (and rightly so) for a legendary Welsh dragon. The family can trace their roots back five hundred years to the Dingle province of Ireland and Finnegan Fafnir, who apparently took the dragon thing a little too seriously and managed to incinerate himself and most of his guests at a mid summers eve festival when a fire-eating stunt went bad. Finnegan's only surviving son wrote a song about the sordid event called "Finnegan Sets the Dingle Fires A Blazing." The song survives to this day although the words were changed over the years and the title has been shortened to "Finnegan's Wake." The Fafnir family soon after left Dingle when they realized nothing much grew there, save a few berries. They relocated to Limerick, where their noble duties including writing witty poetry, which the Fafnirs decided to name after the city. Over the generations, the Fafnir Lordship declined into a series of stand-up comedy routines. Thus it was that the serious-minded Aiden left his father Phineas "Fluffernutter" Fafnir as a young adult to reclaim the former glory of the family name. He was subsequently laughed out of Ireland. Adopting the "if you can't beat them, join them" mantra, he decided to form his own group and has since traveled the world looking for so-called talented people with even less self respect than himself. Proud and aristocratic, Lord Fafnir attempts to be the serious and stabilizing force of the group. Success in this effort is sometimes limited as the band is often much more trouble than they are worth. However, his fire-breathing inner dragon can be unleashed when too much fun is made at his expense.
