User:Doc Lithius/Styringer Lithius

= Description = There stands a picturesque model solider of Quel'Thalas. But what about him draws your attention?

Your average sin'dorei stands anywhere between five and six feet in height. Styringer Lithius is quite literally the average of this, standing a full five feet and six inches tall (or 1.7 meters). His hair is white as rice and styled in a sort of spiked, tossed-back kind of styling, almost like the shape of a pine cone. This crown of white sits atop a rounded head, long ears points to the skies as white eyebrows point to either side. Firey green eyes rest below the eyebrows, burning dimly with the energies of years of tainted magicks, the area around the sockets slightly wrinkled, as if aged... The nose rests between, slightly pointed, as creases from either side slope down into the sides of a mouth which most times appears as a scowl... The body of the elf is slightly toned, though still slight gangly in both arms, though the chest and legs appear to have slightly more "meat" upon them, as it were. If you were to happen to see him bare, you would notice a few runes of Thalassian language across his shoulders and a large rune directly in the middle. Even if you know Thalassian, you would notice the words don't seem to mean anything, either seperate or together. Further, his arms and legs would be without runes, though his left forearm would have some minor scars, long since healed from when they were carved.

A picture of the model soldier of Quel'Thalas, this knight stands to serve for his country and bretheren. What draws your attention is entirely up to you...as is the choice of approaching him for whatever reason you may have.

= History = Six years ago, a horrible plague spread through most of the region Lordaeron. This plague killed millions and turned a great deal of that into mindless, shambling undead. Part of this undead horde took it upon themselves to attack the High Elven capital of Silvermoon and taint it's most precious source of power, the Sunwell. Many elves were not present for the seiging of their homeland, though they could feel something had happened. One of these elves was Styringer Lithius. Lithius was part of a friendly envoy to Ironforge at the time of the attack. Even though he was just a simple guard, he felt the corruption of the Sunwell from the great distance, though he was one of the last of the envoy to feel it. The dignitary he and others were guarding hastened to return to their homeland by ship shortly afterwards only to find it in ruins...tainted by the stench of undeath. They were informed that Arthas Menethil of Lordaeron was to blame for this madness, which didn't set well with any of them. This fact combined with the disappearence of their prince Kael'thas Sunstrider made many uneasy...

Life went on for Lithius... Lithius helped in rebuilding Silvermoon mostly to its former glory...  He fed from the magical creatures that had emerged since the battle against the undead hordes...  He fought against the onslaught of rogue undead that plauged the city on a daily basis...  He just simply continued to do his job. Then, one day, something strange had happened. A new legion had been formed. These new crusaders for justice...these "Blood Knights" as they called themselves, were a renegade unit of what appeared to be disgruntled light worshipers. Lead by Lady Liadrin, formerly a priestess, and headed by Knight-Lord Bloodvalor, overseer of Blood Knight training, the two had soon recruited a great deal of the formery Royal Gaurd into their ranks, either willingly, or by order. Styringer Lithius was one of the last to join.

Now, ordered to give himself to the light of the Naaru delivered by Prince Kael'Thas and twisted by Magister Astalor Bloodsworn, Lithius continues to fight for Quel'Thalas and all blood elven-kind. He knows both his new powers of light as well as his loyality to the cause shall be tested as time goes on, but he hopes upon hope that one day, the leaders will realize that things have indeed gone too far... At least as far as he's concerned...
