Biography
Her mother being a priestess of the light had given birth to Malranda in Lorderon shortly before the first war, where Lord Lightbourne, a knight at the time, had gone to battle. He returned successfully and some years later took up the cause of the Silver Hand during the second war only to meet an unfortunate demise at the hands of the Children of Deathwing (no one knows which killed him). One of the remaining knights returned only carrying his flame scarred sword and shield, and a message for Malranda. "Always trust in the Light." It was then that Malranda decided that the way of the cloth was not her path, and chose to train under the Order of the Silver Hand. While training she heard rumors of a plague sweeping through the countryside, and that the Silver Hand was being disbanded. Being only 17 she decided to follow the Scarlet Crusade to wipe out the Scourge. Until she had heard that Lorderon too had been destroyed. Being forbidden to leave the Crusade she left thier ranks to find news of her mothers survival, only to find her corpse among the many that littered the streets in her former home. She vowed vengence, first to the Black Dragonflight for her fathers death, then to the Scourge, and the Legion who sent the Scourge to begin with. She traveled the countryside for 4 years, learning from any that would teach her, with her fathers shield by her side she would complete her vow.

It was during an adventure to enter the Earthen Tombs of Uldaman that she met Varashiel, who after the last stone being had fallen invited her to the Dragons Elites. Seeing that perhaps friendship might help her complete her vow, she accepted.

Rank
Having only joined the elites recently she has been given the rank of Dragon Salt Vaenderos has made it a point to respect her decision to complete her vow above all else, and thus prefers to not try to woo her (generally being slapped with the flat of a sword has that effect).
