Who is this historical character?

 

Years after the confinement of Azhi Dahaka by Fereydun, the evil Deevs who were the commanders in the army of darkness led by Azhi Dahaka rose again in different parts of the ancient lands of Khunirath and rebelled against the humans who were celebrating the victory of the army of light. Each Deev formed a colony of its own and continued on bringing suffering to the human race. Hitasp, the Golden Crown, who possessed numerous deadly magical skills, was among these Deevs and was seeking to build up its empire in the rocky lands of Faranbagh. Siavoshgard, the legendary village that had been the home of many Pahlavans was raided by Hitasp and his followers and in the battle, Garshasp’s brother, Oroxia, was killed while defending his ancestral home. Garshasp starts out pursuing revenge for his brother’s blood by a journey towards the Hitasp's stronghold only to find out that something much more important has been taken in the raid of Siavoshgard and Garshasp’s bravery is to play a big role in the destiny of the world...

As I mentioned here: http://www.allempires.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27850&PID=627986 and some other threads, ancient lands of Khunirath (Avestan Hvaniratha) is probably the same Vanir land in the Norse mythology. Fereydun is certainly the main character in the land of Hvaniratha, like Frey in the land of Vanir: http://vanir.org/ and the mountainous land of Faranbagh could be in fact "Fereydun-bergh (mountainous land of Fereydun), which is similar to Freyberg (Frey Mountain), Siavoshgard (Land of Siavosh) could be also the same Asgard (Land of the Aesir). ...
