[edit] Biography

In 988 PD, Mayhew and his fellow settlers, led by The Reverend Austin Grayson, landed on the planet Grayson, were he became one of the five original steadholders.

Ten years later in 998 PD, after the death of Reverend Grayson, Mayhew and the colony ship captain Hugh Yanakov informed the rest of the settlers that technology and machines were not evil, but the way that they were used on Earth was. He did so because the planet had a high concentration of heavy metals, which made the flora and fauna deadly to humans, and technology was desperately needed. (HH2)

Oliver Mayhew became the first Protector, a new leader of both the church and the colony, and his family ruled over the Protectorate of Grayson for at least the next thousand years. (HH5)
