Biography
Brothar Argywnn was born in the great High Elven city, Silvermoon by parents who he never knew. He was delivered to a guard by an old man who found him in the Eversong Woods outside the city. Eventually, it was decided that the old man, Hoshoron Argywnn, would raise the child as his own.

When Brothar turned seven years old, him and his adoptive father moved to the outer village of Tranquillien where Hoshoron would continue to practice his warlock arts. Brothar, still not knowing that Hoshoron was not his real father attempted to manipulate the dark arts like his father, but failed. Hoshoron encouraged Brothar to try other arts, curious to see what the boy's heritage would lead him into.

Brothar as a boy, wanted only power, as most young children do. He did not understand holy magic and thought it a symbol of weakness. He continued to attempt arcane magics, shadow magics, and frequently practiced swordsmanship, trying to find his path in life.

At age twelve, the third war finally began burning its way to Quel'Thalas and Arthas' armies of the undead stormed through Tranquillien. Once again, Brothar and his father were forced to retreat back to Silvermoon city. After the Sunwell was destroyed, Brothar noticed a great change in his father and his people.

His father gave up warlock magics, claiming that it pained him more to deal with the addiction. Because Brothar had not found his calling, his withdrawal from the addiction was minor, but he watched in horror as his father grew weak and decrepit. A year after the events of the Third War, when Brothar was thirteen years old, Hoshoron told Brothar how they came to be together and that he was not kin to the boy.

Brothar at first acted with anger and rage that Hoshoron would lie to him for so long, but eventually came to accept the idea and once again adressed Hoshoron as his father.

When Brothar turned seventeen, his father was killed. Hoshorn was told that he had been killed by a party of the scourge that had sieged Tranquillien in Brothar's absense.

In a rage, Brothar stormed in to the Dead Scar and went on a killing rampage, killing countless undead. He used his swordsmanship to bring the scourge to their knees and eventually discovered that he could manipulate holy energies to assist him in the killings. He found his calling as a paladin and discovered that holy energies in reality were not as weak as he used to believe.

He charged through the entire Dead Scar and killed every undead he could find, but at the end of the night he discovered that they had returned. The dark energies of the scar continued to attract the left-overs of the scourge. In deep frustration, Brothar returned to Silvermoon to learn more about his new class and studied relentlessly, hoping to one day cure the Dead Scar.

After many months of studies and trial and error, Brothar left Quel'thalas for the first time in his life, hoping to either find a cure for the dead scar elsewhere, or find and destroy the source, the Lich King.

Brothar currently resides in Grizzly Hills in Northrend, where he awaits the moment that he can finally make his stand against the Lich King. His father is buried in the graveyard outside of Tranquillien and Brothar returns to the grave to pay his respects every seven to fourteen days.
