Summary

Paulson DeMint owns and operates the Pony Express News. In addition to his duties with the newspaper, he also serves as a special consultant to Overseer Vanderville. He is a slim, middle-aged man with blond haired and thick glasses which nearly obscure his dark blue eyes. He both lives as well as operates his newspaper out of the famed Vanderville Compound in Tenny.

Colonial Vinland

During Vinland's Colonial Era, Paulson DeMint served as a courier for Tenny Governor Willis. He was set to become a stablesman for the Governor, but unexpectedly quit his position and left the colony. He reappeared several years later as the Masters' Revolt gripped Tenny and Georgina, and it was then he connected with Lyle Vanderville III and his burgeoning train business. Through his constant travel and tireless efforts, Paulson was able to rally the masters under the leadership of Vanderville, and it is believed his constant work within the two colonies had an influence on the early formation of Man's Order.

The War of Revolutions

During the War of Revolutions, Paulson created the Pony Express News, a newspaper provided free to all passengers of Vanderville's trains. This paper informed the colonists as to the movement of the Blessed and other forces of Deus Ultima, and later was used by the Colonial Vinland Military in their sneak attacks all throughout the region.

United Vinland

With Overseer Vanderville leading Tenny, Paulson DeMint accepted a position as a special consultant to the Overseer, and moved into a private community known as The Vandervlle Compound. It is at the Compound that he was able to build out a print shop in order to create regular new issues of the Pony Express News. Although the Lyanans at the Compound are owned by Overseer Vanderville, Paulson was able to convince the Overseer to grant him ownership of Gentle Ben, a Lyanan who entertains the Compound's residents.
