Orryn Braitbirn

==Overview==
Duke Orryn Braitbirn was the Duke of Llanoreid from 114 AG until his death in 117 AG. He was the only child and legitimised bastard of Duchess Leisha and as such was seen by many as being unworthy of leading Llanoreid. In 102 AG Orryn's wife, his cousin, Mairéad, died giving birth to their third son, Arddal. In his grief, Orryn treated his son with contempt and abuse. His misplaced resentment only grew with the sudden deaths of his elder sons, Oran and Colm, leaving Arddal as his sole heir. Following that, his mental state began to decline and, as his mother passed and he became duke, his physical health would fail him too - most notably in going blind. After just three years of rule, Orryn suffered a heart attack and passed away at 56 with the young and recently estranged Arddal succeeding him.
