Samuel "Reggad" Alberic

"Never Forget."- House Alberic Samuel 'Reggad' Alberic is the oldest son of Taylor Alberic and Laura Ross-Alberic from the Arathi Highlands and the current Chairman of the Western Grizzly Hills of the Grizzly Hills and formerly of The Ironcloak Union. Formerly being the Regent-Lord of the Hills as a whole. After the signing of the Treaty of Grizzlemaw, he was placed as the Chairman after the split.

= Description =

He stands at approximately 6' 3" and weighs approximately 220 lbs. He has raven black (Naturally Ginger) hair that reaches almost his shoulders. His face is lined with multiple scars and the most prominent ones being the long faint scar from his right ear lobe across his jawline to his chin. The second being the claw marks reaching from the top left side of his forehead raking all away across his face to the lower right side. Two of the marks cross the scar on his jawline, and third and the most obvious from afar, would be the missing left eye that he constantly hides under an eyepatch. When uncovered the empty eye socket is a charred and scarred crater that would cause those with weak stomachs to look away rather quickly.

While the man appears to be in his Thirties or even early Forties, no one will ever be able to tell due to the mass amounts of head trauma he has received over the years that has limited him to only knowing in what order the events took in his life, not entirely how long each part lasted.

In recent months he has taken to wearing more assassin like leather armor that allows him to move with nearly no restraint what so ever. When dressed in this gear he will carry an array of poisons in green vials on his belt normally hidden by his cloak and two very pointy and sharp daggers. However when he does not feel like an area is unsafe or he has not even the slightest chance of getting into a fight he can be seen wearing a set of worn blue leather armor with a cutlass. Though those with trained eyes will be able to see that instead of a chest-piece with this set, he wears a leather jacket instead.

= History Abridged =

Early Life
Samuel was born to Taylor Alberic, a Trader from the Kingdom of Stromgarde and Laura Ross-Alberic a Jewelcrafter from Stormwind City in the Arathi Highlands. He lived a rather normal life in his early childhood from birth to the age of eight, helping his father with his trading ship and occasionally travelling with his mother to Stormwind and Redridge Mountains to visit his younger cousin, Tristan Alexander Ross. He would live this life style for that time period with very little exposure to studies and literature as he was much more interested in sailing and trade. This was around the point in time where his younger brother, Selther, and sister, Xevia. Were taken elsewhere to live with other relatives, leaving Samuel alone with his parents.

On a not so fateful day while they were out at sea, young Samuel and his parents were ambushed by Bloodsail ships while making their way down towards Booty Bay to drop off some of his mothers jewels for payment. His parents were killed by the Admiral and he was given the scar from his right earlobe to his chin before being chained up and made a deckhand to try and break him into becoming a Sailor after despite his age, having shown he had quite the knack for sailing.Mentally, an eight year old was easily broken, however they saw him as useless due to the fact that he was almost completely illiterate, so he was taught Common and a slight bit of Zandali due to the areas they were going to be working in.

This started the next chapter of his life.

Life as a Buccaneer
As Samuel worked as a deckhand and gained more knowledge from another member of the Buccaneers that he formed a semi-friendly relationship with, this knowledge involved the Trolls of the Vale, their religion and gods, Loaism and the Loa, which compared to the Holy Light, which he had limited knowledge of at the time, was much more intriguing to him. He would slowly make his way up through the ranks on the ship and among the Buccaneers as a whole. Eventually he would be made Captain of the Red Wing, a freshly build Ship-of-the-Line, when he was Sixteen. He would raise the flag of the Bloodsail proudly as he would raise chaos around the southern parts of the Eastern Kingdoms and parts of Kalimdor.

While in a disguise and scouting out a port that the Buccaneers intended to raid for resources and the obvious booty, he met a beautiful and cheery Priestess of the Church! Hope Livlin was walking around giving the occasional blessing to those that wished around the port. Samuel being eighteen at the time would instantly be entranced by the Priestess and instead of continuing his scouting mission, began spending most of his time with her becoming her friend and then attempting (a rather bad attempt) to flirt with her, which oddly worked! It wasn't long before the Buccaneers started to harass the Priestess without knowing of the relationship between the two and Samuel would get very angry, eventually thinking that his place was not among the Buccaneers anymore and it was in this small port with Hope. The 'good' in Samuel would start to arise more and more as he realized that the Buccaneer life -was- not entirely what he had been made to think it was nor how he thought it was, leading to him separating from the Buccaneers and taking the Red Wing and it's crew with him to live peacefully in the Port, this infuriated the Buccaneers he had worked with and caused them to attack the Port. The Red Wing was able to hold it's own against the buccaneers, sinking their ships and causing them to swim to shore but they wanted his head and they wanted blood. They would run into the town and slaughter those around them, the crew and Samuel, along with the guards of the port, would fight the Buccaneers back and Samuel with the help of the guard captured a Bloodsail Admiral and two captains, eventually having them hanged. Samuel and Hope would marry and started a happy life together.

Vigilante and Mercenary Work
Samuel and Hope would start a life with his crew sailing around the Eastern Kingdoms acting as Vigilantes and Mercenaries-for-Hire to defend shipments of weapons, food, etc. Hope would serve as a wandering Priestess, giving blessings to every port they stopped at. They would make quite a fair amount of coin from this and this would also involve an encounter with his long thought dead Cousin, Tristan, where Samuel and his crew were acting as Mercenaries for a not so friendly group and the Red Wing was nearly sunk by Tristan's own ship. This scared Samuel as not many people had come near to sinking his ship before, starting to move the gears in his head that he had to be a it more safe.

It was not long until things started to go downhill for the Vigilantes as their work would diminish and they were once again hunted by the Buccaneers as well as Samuel's head wanted for a fair sum of gold by the Alliance due to his time with the Buccaneers and the crimes he committed then, his Vigilante work that was -mostly- good and positive had not reached their ears yet. This was added with the horrendous death of Hope, who he had eloped with not too long prior.The Priestess having been obliterated by a cannon shot as Samuel was forced to watch while on a contract. Which slowly threw the man into madness. Causing him to send the Red Wing and it's crew to his Cousin and then handing himself into the Stormwind Guard to be trialed for his crimes.

Jail Time
Reggad was trialed approximately three months after he handed himself in. He was trialed mostly for the heist of Alliance goods, as well as the murder of multiple innocent people. Though when his 'good' vigilante work and the fact that he separated from the Buccaneers to aid people were brought up his sentence was -slightly- shortened. In the end he was sentenced to eight years in the Stockades after everything was said and done.

Reformation
As Reggad spent time in the Stockades he didn't entirely do what you would expect an ex-Buccaneer to do. He didn't start fights, he didn't try to stab a man, for a whole three years he did what he could to learn from whatever scraps of books or text he found and simply sat in his cell unless it was time to eat, even then most of the time his food was brought to him. He would only make extra time to do slight work-outs to maintain a semi-healthy body shape, despite the lack of proteins and nutrients he was getting. This would eventually have the Guards see to him being in the Stockades as useless, a waste of space. So when he was moved they had only one place where he could really go, the Cathedral of Light, where he would help out around the Cathedral with the Brothers and Sisters, not really the Bishops or any of the High parts of the Cathedral, but he helped out around there and learned about the faith of the Holy Light, at the time the only religion he really knew was Loaism so the knowledge on the Three Virtues and the past of the Holy Light intrigued the knowledge craving man greatly.

After helping out in the Cathedral for about a year and a half, Samuel moved on to use what he was born to do to spend the rest of his sentence. He would join the Grand Alliance Navy, working alongside his Cousin and putting his knowledge of the seas to use.

Departure
After serving his sentence, Samuel would depart from the city of Stormwind and start what would later become the basis for his trading company, the Alberic Trading Company. Operating the company alone with the Red Wing and his crew after regaining them from his cousin without a single issue. Where he was during this time or what he was doing other than forming a mass amount of connections around the world was unknown.

Return and work in Duskwood
Samuel would return to the city of Stormwind after nearly three years and would be much richer than he was before and a tad bit more leaning towards his old chaotic and Buccaneer like ways. However he never really stirred up any trouble as he didn't want to be thrown into the Stockades again. He would eventually find a flier to a organization that operated out of Raven Hill, the ghost town of Duskwood. He would sign on with this organization and soon would start to meet some interesting people that would help him and start to be a major role in his life afterwards, Abigail Caine, his long lost brother, Selther Alberic (Going by the name Jason De'Mon or simple 'Nobody' at the time), and his later to be wife, Pac. While working here he was able to learn how to truly act like a Leader and to follow through with his House's saying, "Never Forget."

It was only a few months into his time with the Organization that he would ask Pac to marry him, they lived happily together until one day she would have an affair with another man, causing him to ask for a divorce. The group was dwindling at this point and Samuel would leave the organization to continue elsewhere, spending a small stint with a group of the former members of the group before leaving that as well as he believed he could be of more use elsewhere.

Affliction
While he was married to Pac, his wife would be taken hostage, while she was being held she flew into a rage, killing her abductors and turning feral and running off into Duskwood, Samuel would track her down and attempt to calm her down, using every trick in the book he knew to do so, however to no avail. She would attempt to kill or at least maim him in her rage but only managed to bite him. Initially shrugging it off he didn't expect much of it and simply bandaged it up.

As time went on however the bite would start to infect and worse, he started to gather symptoms of those befalling the Worgen curse, he went to any who would try and help him but they could not, after a few weeks passed he would be sitting at a campfire when he would have his first of many transformations and he would enter a feral rage and run througout the woods of Duskwood until he was subdued and treated by Pac, who had been returned to her normal state of mind by their comrades. It was soon after however that they would divorce.

Stints with the Shadowtalon Company and Legion of Arathor
While trying to find that certain place for his use, Samuel would try out multiple groups, most prominently would be a few weeks spent with the Shadowtalon Company at the request of long time friend Sarareith Daggerfall and almost a month spent as a Soldier for the Legion of Arathor. He would eventually leave the Legion at the request of the very person who asked him to join the prior Company, hearing about a certain.. movement.

Kingdom of the Hills
That movement was called the Grizzly Hills Unification Movement led by Geranelm Syla. At the request of Sarareith, Samuel signed on as a Trader and would become one of the first people to set up shop within the freshly revived Kingdom of the Hills and eventually made a Nobleman. After aiding in the recruitment for a solid month with Sarareith, both were made members of the Regent-Lord's Regency Council, Sarareith as one of his hands and Samuel as the Councilor of the Economy, the entire Economy of the Hills was now his playground and he loved it. He instantly started setting up trading companies, lumber companies and other things within the hills to aid in what they could offer to trade to their allies. He started to warm up to quite a few members of the Hills, Caileach Greywisp, Uthgurd Arvgald, Ocharwill van Grant and Gerard Aylmer who would become some of his closest friends and greatest allies later on. He would sadly miss the taking of Venture Bay and Silverbrook, however he had an active role in the reclaiming of Solstice, protection of Westfall Encampment and the Assault on Bloodmoon Isle. He would gain respect from his peers through these actions and would eventually become Governor of Silverbrook, when the idea of Governors were scrapped he would simply be the Lord of Silverbrook.

After some of the Hills members splintered off to form a group in Wintergarde Keep, the Hills would soon start to fall into 'darker' times as many members started to doubt the future for them, while Samuel was as cheery as ever, this didn't change the fact that change was needed to even have a chance to not disband. Geranelm took action and would announce that he would be making a member of the Regency Council a Regent-Lord of the Grizzly Hills, beside himself as the second leader of the Hills. As Tristan was MIA and Caileach having left, Reggad was left as to most eyes the only option for this promotion and they were right! Geranelm would make Reggad his Co-Leader and first ever man to be a Co-Leader of the Hills. They would bring the Hills back to prominence for almost a month before the remnants of the scourge from Zul'drak and the dark tunnels of the Hills would attack and completely decimate that Hills, leaving them without a home and without a purpose.

The Ironcloak Vanguard
Thankfully after the Hills were destroyed Samuel was able to come into contact with his old friend Abigail, who was working as a Captain for the Ironcloak Vanguard, without a place to take those that remained from the Hills he and Geranelm would meet with the Vanguard's Commander Falcko Arturia to have the Hillsman stay within Durnholde, to which the Commander is Duchess of, until they could retake the Hills or at least find a new home for them, to which the Commander agreed, starting a relationship between the Hillsman and the Ironcloak's that would start off a bit rocky with the different personalities but eventually everyone started getting along and things were running smoothly.

Legacy of the Iron Hills
The relationship between the Ironcloaks an the Hillsman would grow only closer as the Hills were retaken. Reggad and Geranelm both returned to their Regent-Lord ranks and the Ironcloaks would merge together with the Kingdom of the Hills to form the Legacy of the Iron Hills, Falcko would join them as the Third Regent, making the new order being ran under a Triumvirate. There were struggles with creating an Iron Council, their new version of the Ironcloaks' old council of the same name and the Hills' Regency Council, eventually they settled on Tristan Ross as the Fleet Admiral, Sellatix as the Ranger-Lord, Caricias Telrenn as the Lieutenant-Commander, and finally Chalilia Erickson and Bluie Rena Firegiz as the Co-Leaders of the Mancers. Tristan would eventually go MIA and to Reggad's dismay be demoted and the Navy disbanded.

Over time the Ironcloaks and Hillsman would start to completely meld into one solid community, not without it's ups and downs, the death of Korven Might and the disappearance of Gerard Aylmer hit Reggad hard, making it hard for him to focus. This was finalized with the departure of Geranelm Syla, leaving the Iron Hills and going off on his own sort of adventure to find himself. This was followed up by Falcko Arturia stepping down as Regent-Lady, thus leaving Reggad as the sole leader of the Grizzly Hills, this caused him to instantly start freaking out and having panic attacks as he now had to focus on leading a country as well as dealing with things he never had to deal with before, alliances, the military, etc. He slowly started to find out his own way of working with these new found sections he had to work with and would start to panic less and relax once more.

Return of the Fleet-Admiral and the Silver-Tongued
It was not long until Gerard Aylmer returned and Samuel promoted his long-time ally to a Captain rank within the Ranger division and that his Cousin, Tristan, returned to the Eastern Kingdoms and society. This started to aid the already recovering Regent-Lord into getting back into place. This was soon aided by the return of his long-time business partner Bardulf Poachpaw, who agreed to aid the Iron Hills financially with Poachpaw Trading Co. the company that had once partnered with the Alberic Trading Co. in the Kingdom of the Hills to create a super-power, thus creating the Iron Hills a trading mega-power with the combination of Poachpaw Trading Co., Alberic Trading Co., the Heolster Trading Co., and the returning Zundrbar Trading Co. This would fill Reggad with new spirit, along with creating ties to multiple organizations, things were going well for him and the Iron Hills as a whole.

The Baroness of Northfold and the Monthly Bonfire
Not long after he would start to socialize a bit more within the city, in one of the bars he would meet a young Baroness by the name of Myriany Greystorm, after speaking a bit they would start to become quite good friends. After about two weeks of this he would start to court the Baroness, not long after he would have a child left in his lodge, a note saying that it was his from a past relationship and that the mother had died giving birth, her last words were to have the child brought to him. This was where his terrible relationship history bit him in the rear as he was not able to tell who the mother was, nor if it was even his child, however from the appearance of the baby, emerald eyes, ginger hair, it was near impossible to say she was not his own. He soon found out that the Baroness was close friends to the Highlord of the Alterac Silver Hand, someone he had just recently spoken to about relations, it was quite the eventful few weeks for him at this point.

Soon it was time for the monthly bonfire within the Grizzly Hills, a large bonfire held monthly by the Regent to bring all of the allied organizations and kingdoms with the Hills together with a night of laughter and enjoyment, here he would speak with people such as Highlord Zaria R. Blackmoore and his old friend, Knight-Lieutenant Sarareith Daggerfall, as well as host a tournament of strength, the winner becoming a Knight within the Kingdom of the Iron Hills,and a Hearthstone Tournament hosted by Prospector Orghue MacMillan, won by none other than Orghue MacMillan! Having beaten people such as Ranger-Lady Zamaris Greyfox, Commander Falcko Arturia, and Sergeant Kinma Bloodpaw, the Tournament of strength would be won by the Highlord herself, the knighting taking place within Grizzlemaw, the fallen world tree, and with the completion of the knighting the bonfire would end. Those who wished to leave returned home and those that were unable to from being smashed or simply wished to continue the party would be given rooms and beds within Silverbrook for the night.

Tournament of Ages
When the Tournament of Ages came around it was quite a high point for Reggad, as he had not been able to participate in the one the year prior, he would go to the first day with the majority of the Iron Hills, he would watch the opening Ceremonies as well as play Orghue MacMillan in a Hearthstone match in the crowded stands. He didn't entirely do much but converse and watch the Tournaments, particularly the Jousting Tournament where his fellow Hillsman Altarick Green was participating and made it rather far until being eliminated by eventual Gold winner, Teolon of the Nightfall Watch. In order to lift Altarick's spirit the two of them would go to the Build-a-Bom booth, Altarick making a 'bom for himself, while Reggad would make one for Myriany and then another for his daughter.

When it came the Friday of the Tournament Week he would finally enter a tournament, he initially had quite horrendous luck as his initial partners for the Three versus Three tournament, Vaelrathor and Vale, would no-show, leaving him to have to find quick replacements in Tyler Steele and Caricias Telrenn, before Steele himself would have to leave, before he found his final team composition in Caricias and the Ranger-Lady of the Iron Hills, Zamaris Greyfox. They would be pushed past the initial round, and would go straight to the second round where they would face the team of Aurion Dawntreader, Zalgrand Onyxthorn, and a paladin from the Silver Hand Chapter, after a long battle, which involved in the defeat of Aurion, and Caricias rather early on, the Ranger-Lady and Regent-Lord were eventually bested by Commander Onyxthorn and the Paladin. He would bandage himself up and then make his way towards the Ball to end the night, meeting up with Myriany there and having their first dance together.

The Return of Varkennen Heolster:
The Month of September marked the return of a very odd ally and friend of Reggad, Varkennen Heolster, the now undead Heolster had been exiled, and banished from the Hills but came to Reggad with an offer. He offered his knowledge, his trading company, money, and a small-army to the Regent-Lord in return for access back into the Hills he had served in life, and wished to serve again in undeath. Initially against the idea, as Heolster had done much to very much be kept in exile, however eventually his good nature and the offer itself got to him and he would allow the man back into the Hills as a member of the Research Division and to his rank of Corporal. This would soon prove to be quite a good decisions as the small-army and company would aid the Hills greatly, however it had in turn hurt Reggad's reputation with Councilor Chalilia Erickson, who had quite negative feelings towards Heolster and was a supporter of his exile in the first place.

Campaign into the Twilight Highlands
(( This section is currently a W.I.P and will be updated as story is given. )) The return of Varkennen Heolster would cause quite a bit of movement within the Hills, as soon there were two more returns of former-high ranking Kingdom of the (Grizzly) Hills members, the former General of the Hills Korven Might (Now Blight as a Death Knight), and former Ranger-Lord Sellatix Dawnslayer, they returned from their hiatuses with a plan for Reggad, after the fall of Fort Might to Vrykul, Korven wished to start a campaign to the Twilight Highlands, intending to build a Fort there in the name of the Iron Hills, his campaign was supported by Corporal Varkennen Heolster, the Former Ranger-lord, Bardulf Poachpaw, and Councilman Ri L'Hiir, the latter two wishing to create a trading post, and brewery respectively in the Highlands near the Fort. Reggad would agree after a week of deciding. In order to carry out this campaign, the former-General and Ranger-Lord were both made Lieutenants within the Ironcloak Vanguard.

When the day came for the Iron Hills to move into the Twilight Highlands it was a very bad time as many were off on other missions and unable to charge, however this would not stop Lieutenant Korven Blight and Corporal Heolster to from continuing with their plans, after they moved from the Lieutenant's temporary base in the Hinterlands, they made their way up towards the northern end of the Highlands. There they would fight remnants of the Dragonmaw and some Cultists to claim their stake within the Highlands, thus starting the construction of Valhallon, named after the Vrykul version of a good afterlife (Heaven), a town that would have the Lieutenant as it's Mayor and serve as the outpost of the The Ironcloak Union in the Highlands.

In celebration of the creation of Valhallon, there was a movie night within 'Tavern L'hiir' named after Councilman Ri L'Hiir, different films played off of projectors created by the Lieutenant and Corporal, some reached rather odd standards and it ended in the destruction of some of the projectors, as well as a very intoxicated Regent-Lord.

Danger in Skorn!
While he had been checking the borders between the Grizzly Hills and Howling Fjord Reggad would find something quite odd. As he looked further into the thicket of the Fjord he would see a group of Forsaken rather close, this alarmed him and he would call for those available from the Ironcloak Vanguard to come and deal with the issue with him, not being able to take them on solo. As a small force would arrive they would have a quick discussion with either going in quietly and jumping the group from the shadows, or attacking them head on. Due to the majority of the people not being the most stealthiest of people, the group would charge head on into the fray. They would drive the forsaken back quickly, however the direction they went alarmed Reggad, they headed straight towards Skorn, the Vrykul Town that was still under Union control and was the home of his close friend, Ambassador Sabreel Ezra.

After recovering for a few days the Regent-Lord would take a small group of former Kingdom of the Hills members and Commander Falcko Arturia to check on the small town, due to their knowledge of the town from their last encounter with it, no people not aware with it were taken. As they would arrive they would find that the town had been plagued and that the Vrykul were dying, they would fight through a group of Dreadguards and Plaguespreaders to start heading towards the top of the town where the Hall was. After dodging barrels of plague while climbing the Hill the group of Gerard Aylmer, Varkennen Heolster, Falcko Arturia, Korven Might (Blight), Sellatix Dawnslayer and Reggad would arrive at the top to witness the Ambassador killing a Dreadguard. The Ambassador was ragged as if he had been constantly fighting for days, after dodging more plaguebarrels being launched at them, the Union members would be attacked by an Abomination. The Abomination would nearly defeat all of them until they would make a turn around with the aid of Korven's Golems and the Abomination would fall, however the Town Hall had also fallen. Leaving Skorn in ruins.

After a clean up with the aid of Heolster, the reconstruction of the Town began a week after. To be made from lumber from the Grizzly Hills and granite from Alterac, given to them by the Alterac Silver Hand weeks prior.

Break Up with the Baroness
Soon history would repeat itself and Reggad would have another relationship fall, danger towards himself and his close ones would cause him to start to separate himself from those he cared for, not wishing for them to be hurt or killed, this involved him making the drastic decision of separating from Baroness Myriany Greystorm. While both did not wish for it to happen, Reggad seemed set it was what was best for both of them. He will state that he does not have any bad memories with the Baroness and has no ill words about her. He still trusts her to the point that he will leave his infant daughter Hope with the Baroness when he can not take care of her.

Durnholde Crisis and the Treaty of Grizzlemaw
While things were peaceful for the time being. It wasn't long until things got busy again. It was soon made apparent that the Coalition of the Valryan Dominion and the Alliance of Arathor, as well as a collection of allies. Intended for the Union to be pushed from Durnholde and the Grizzly Hills for the lands to be split between them. After being asked to attend a War Table consisting of new and old faces for defenses in-case of an attack, the then Regent would attend a Peace Summit within the walls of Alterac Keep between the Union and the Coalition.

While things appeared to be going according to plan. A miscommunication lead to the Union's allies to spring into action believing there to be an attack. This lead to a mass amount of chaos and the Summit to be closed without a consensus. This lead to a slight cold-war like environment to commence between Durnholde and the Arathorians. However after just over a week a Peace Treaty was signed by Durnholde and the Arathorians. That same day the Treaty of Grizzlemaw was signed by the Coalition of Allies, Lord-Margrave of Durnholde Caricias Telrenn, Marshal Falcko Arturia, and the Regent-Lord. Which lead to the Hills to being divided directly down the middle of Grizzlemaw between the Union and Coalition. Grizzlemaw and Venture Bay becoming Neutral grounds. Thus ending his Regency as Sole Ruler of the Hills.

Chairman Alberic?
After the division of the Hills. Reggad decided it was time to take on a new title for the Western Grizzly Hills. Becoming the Chairman of the Western Grizzly Hills, to which he became the head of it's government. He was never entirely one to use a Lord-esque title, which was a happy change for the man.

November: Navy! Round 2! New Love? And Injuries!
Upon the second return of his Cousin, Tristan Alexander Ross, to the Ironcloak Union, and hopefully to stay. Reggad would start to return to his role as a Captain of the Navy! Helping to lead an Expedition to Kalimdor with his Cousin, Reggad would start to realize how much he had missed and almost longed and yearned to return to a boat. Especially after recent events where his nerves had been high and his normal sense of improvisation was not as useful as normal, the Expedition had been a few days where he had been able to shed those worries and those nerves and relax. Upon finding a dig site with the Ironcloaks, the Restless Spirits of the ruins were not entirely happy with them being there, thus cutting their time there short. This would have brought a thrill into Reggad's life that had not been there in some time. Happy to have lead a successful Expedition since the disappearance of Orghue MacMillan, the Chairman would return to Northrend with the Ironcloaks in tow to let the Research Division and the mages of the Union to investigate their finds!

The Successful Expedition was one of the three major things to happen to the Chairman in the month of November. After the cutting of the courtship with Myriany Hollow, the Chairman had left himself isolated. Only speaking to a few people outside of when he was needed at a meeting or council of sorts. This was until the return of his Cousin and the Chairman speaking with an old.. friend? Acquaintance? The relationship between Quel'dorei Paladin, Amare Suncrest had always been an interesting one. Starting when the two met in Tyr's Hand at a Scarlet Salvation Masquerade, where the Chairman had accused Amare of purposely placing saronite into the hilts of daggers given to the guests, they got off to a rocky start. However it wasn't until they saw each other again at the Cathedral of the Holy Light when the two would start to have a slight form of friendship. Upon apologizing for what he had accused the Paladin of prior, the two began to realize they were not all too different after all. They would start to see each other more often when they were both free and a true friendship began to form. It however wasn't until the start of November when Reggad began to believe he had fallen for Amare. Upon telling Amare about his feelings, he would learn that she felt the same way. After finishing some business and making sure that his feelings were true, not wanting another situation like past relationships. The two would begin courting, and have been happy together since. Only time will tell if this will be another failed relationship for Reggad or he has finally found one to stay.

The last week of November however, has been a combination of ups and downs. Establishing an Alliance between The Eastern Offensive and The Ironcloak Union on the 29th was one of the Ups, however days prior and that very same day, the Chairman would fall under multiple injuries. A few days prior he had led a Mission with Councilor Ri L'hirr in order to trace out a Vrykul Necromancer within the Western Hills, while they would be unsuccessful in capturing or killing the Vrykul, they had been able to put the spirits in the ruins they hid out in to rest. Coming out of the mission almost unscathed, the Chairman would have the misfortune of having an explosion go off in the room beside him and large rock chunks falling and pelting him in the head (Thanks Ri.). This would be the first head injury he would have sustained in a long time and indeed gave him a minor concussion despite healing (while rather half-assed) by Ricktore Schroder. This would leave the Chairman bedridden until the 28th. On the 29th after his meeting with Lord-Commander Nathul Furlbrow and Lord Arranax DeVin. He would attend a 'training session' in Gorgrond held by Captain Racy Health-Cobble of the The Ironcloak Union. While initially only being there as a spectator, upon comments by his Cousin and Private Rithule Ragefang to aid with at least his firearm despite his wounds to help in taking down a set of ogres, the Chairman would start out rather easily attacking with shots from his horse. It was not until they ran into a camp of Ogres that the Chairman would be tossed around like a rag doll and have boulders the size of him tossed at him and once again would receive multiple injuries, especially to his cranium that would be tended to more carefully by Serenity Illusia. After being sent back to his home within Amberpine Lodge by his Hearthstone and being left to be tended to by Amberpine staff, the Chairman would be left unconscious.

After he would awaken it wasn't long until he would be on a long road to recovery. Spending the majority of his time within Amberpine, he was uncertain of his ability to recover at a quick pace. However after repeated visits of doctors and healers of the like, the Chairman would make his way back to full health in no time.

Disbandment of the Union and after:
After the disappearance of Marshal Falcko Arturia and the disbandment of the Ironcloak Union, Reggad was without a home and left with the Hills to be controlled. While this didn't necessarily change how he lived entirely as all trade routes remained the same to his lands. It put the man in a setting where for once he wasn't surrounded by people he knew in the city and let alone had a job outside of Chairman.

This led the man to seeking out an old friend while he wished to piece his future together. He would find Commander Teolon within the Royal Library of Stormwind Keep. Telling the Commander of what had befallen the Union, he set forth his wish to aid the The Eastern Offensive with his knowledge and skills as he would think. Hoping to be able to aid as best he could and figure out if the 103rd was his new home or if he was to be placed elsewhere. He would be signed on as a Recruit and began a new life.

The day continued to grow better for Reggad as he would be called by Count Nathul Furlbrow to speak with him within his County in Westfall. Upon meeting with the Count he would be given an offer that really he would have been idiotic to turn down. Being told that a Baron had been killed and that a Barony was left without an Heir, Nathul wished to give it to Reggad, oddly trusting him to be it's new Lord. With the rather simple laws laid out to him and being told generally to do as he wished with the essentially bare New Highlands, Reggad would accept the offer and now awaits the legal papers to come through to officially become the Baron of the New Highlands within the County of Goldcoast!

= Offices =

= Personality =

While at first glance from all of the scars on his face and his former occupations many would believe that Reggad would be cold, heartless and brutal, however once you meet the man this becomes quite the opposite. A kind hearted and friendly man, Reggad does not initially scream that of a Regent-Lord, while many would look down upon the people underneath them, treating them like insects, Reggad believes that every person is important within his Kingdom, everyone has their role and if they aren't respect he highly doubts they will do much, to quote, "A happy worker is a productive worker.". He will willingly take risks if it is for the benefit of his people.

= Religious Views =

While Reggad himself hardly follows any form of religion, many have seen him showing signs of being a follower of the Holy Light, this has been enforced by his increasing presence within the Cathedral District. Early on in life it was hinted by many people that knew him that he was a follower of the Loa, this was later supported with his knowledge of the Loa and other parts of Trollish culture, until the man himself dismissed such rumors.

While he himself leans towards the Holy Light, he does not have a problem with other forms of belief such as Loaism, Shamanism, and those that worship the Titans, this is shown further as he supports the freedom of religion within the The Ironcloak Union and had done so in the Kingdom of the (Grizzly) Hills.

Political Views:
Reggad is an odd sight when it comes to his political views. While being a successful business man with his trading company and his relations to many people with highly capitalistic views, Reggad is very oddly left on the spectrum, believing that it should be the collective that benefits as a whole rather than one person, though he does believe that the people who work should get the majority of their earnings. His personality doesn't seem to change when in political meetings, keeping the friendly and helpful demeanor he does in his everyday life, it's only in meetings of war that you see a change where he becomes less so.

On the topics of race, gender and sexuality. Reggad believes that everyone should be treated equally and given the same opportunity and respect as anyone else no matter what their race, gender or sexuality may be. This is shown heavily if he sees any sign of oppression towards a certain group. This even involves races of the New Horde unless he is given a very good reason as to why they are to be done so in that way, even then the Chairman is sure to be uncomfortable with the very thought.

He does not allow conflicting religions to cloud his vision either, as said in his religious views, he is a supporter of religious equality and has been since his early days as Councilor of the Economy.

= Relationships = (W.I.P) Throughout his life Reggad has gotten rather close to a few people, either considering them near family or having romantic links to them. He has also made quite a few connections to other people who he may consider a friend or an acquaintance. This list consists of those people and his family.

Tristan Alexander Ross:
Throughout his life Reggad and his cousin Tristan have had a very up and down relationship, from the days when they were children where he would make fun of the future Fleet Admiral to the times in their teenaged years and twenties where they would have back and forth battles on the high seas. Now that they both have aged and matured, and both having faced many challenges their relationship has turned to one of brothers rather than rivals and cousins. Reggad trusts Tristan over anyone no matter the situation and Tristan trusts Reggad the very same.

Selther Alberic:
The strained relationship between Reggad and his brother Selther has never been really anything but strained. While Reggad loves him as any brother truly would, he simply can not support his brothers wild antics and some of the things he creates. This goes back to the many times they have gotten into fights and arguments that normally never get them anywhere.

Hope Alberic:
The infant daughter of Reggad is his pride and joy. Really one of the few reasons he continues to fight and act. Hope was born on July 28th 625 K.C. and left within his lodge not too long after. Initially unsure if the child was his, Reggad would eventually grow that certain fatherly bond with her that made him realize there was no doubt she was his own. The only thing that will really get the man angered is any harm or mention of her in negative tones.

Falcko Arturia:
The Commander of the Ironcloak Vanguard and the Regent-Lord have an odd friendship. While their viewpoints on many things are polar opposite they both are still rather close friends. While only having known one another for less than a year, the Commander and Chairman have formed a group together and lead it as Co-Leaders. Thus forming a bond of companionship and friendship. While these bonds have been strained on multiple occasions due to their views on things, they have never truly broken into violent hostility towards one another.

Varkennen Heolster:
When Varkennen was alive there was not much between Varkennen and Reggad other than a relationship of business partners, it was not until his later undeath that the two would start to form a true friendship.. well.. a friendship where every month they switch up who stabs who. Outside of the mans darker taste in magic, Reggad views him as a close ally and friend to the point that Reggad aided the man in finding a new body after his had decay past recovery.

Sellatix Dawnslayer:
Reggad initially viewed the former Ranger-Lord as lazy, annoying and obnoxious.. actually, he still views him as such. However he has realized that this is solely how the Gilnean is and has started to acknowledge that he has skills outside of this. After the fall of the Kingdom of the Hills the Gilnean became one of his closer friends and bigger supporters. When the Legacy of the Iron Hills (Now the Ironcloak Union) was formed he served as the Ranger-Lord as he had in the Kingdom of the Hills, supervised by Reggad this allowed their bond to grow closer. Upon his return as a Lieutenant from his retirement as Ranger-Lord their friendship is as strong as ever.

Zaria R. Blackmoore:
Reggad initially only viewed the Highlord as an ally and they didn't necessarily have that much of a friendship. However like most people he knew he would over time develop a decent friendship with her and as such the connection between the Union and Alterac swelled. As well as the connection between the Highlord and his co-leader Falcko Arturia. Reggad trusts Zaria more than he really should, however he states she has yet to betray said trust.

Korven A. Might (Blight):
One of the reasons Reggad has trust issues, the repeated deaths and revivals of Korven have made him rather afraid of losing people he cares for, however has also hardened him towards the concept of death. Though through research he knows that his friend is on his last chance. He considers Korven near family which is one of the reasons he puts up with his rather insane antics.

Gerard Aylmer:
One of Reggad's best friends. Gerard is like a brother to him through how the Captain has helped Reggad through many things, his time as a Councilor and his rise to becoming a Regent-Lord being main points. The Silver-Tongued Aylmer is also one of the few people that Reggad trusts to care for his child, Hope, when he is not able to.

Teolon:
Having met Commander Teolon during the Commander's time as the Sergeant-Major for Reggad's long time friend Sarareith Daggerfall's The Nightfall Watch, they initially met while Reggad aided in the design for a weapon that Teolon wished to craft (A design that never got used.) within Raven Hill. Afterwards the two would have a loose friendship. Though they are decently close, especially due to Reggad's recent employment in the Eastern Offensive and the late Union's connection to the 103rd.

Caricias Telrenn:
Caricias is a man that Reggad has had many interesting encounters with, one of which involving him stabbing his former Commander while under the effects of a mind control spell, the others involving drinks within the Brawl Pub. All around Reggad believes Caricias to be one of the better friends that he made during his time with the Ironcloak Union and as such continues to keep in close contact with him, hoping the best for Commander Telrenn in his future.

Silas Ambrose:
The quiet and apathetic Medic is known to make not so subtle remarks towards his patients. One of which would be Reggad who seems to see the Doctor at meetings or when he has been shot. Oddly enjoying the Doctors sense of humor, Reggad considers Silas a friend but one that he keeps at a distance for reasons he doesn't speak of. He assumes that Silas does about the same.

Ri L'hiir:
Reggad thoroughly enjoys the company of his former Councilman due to his enjoyable sense of humor and personality. As well as the fact that due to his knowledge of Pyromancy, he is essentially a walking heater. As such Reggad enjoys sitting in bars with Ri and talking with him where he might necessarily not with other people. This also comes from the twos shared horrible history with relationships.

Romantic:
(W.I.P)

Dame Amare Suncrest:
Reggad met Amare while she was apart of the Scarlet Salvation at a Masquerade the latter organization was hosting. While they initially started on bad terms after he accused the Quel'dorei of purposely putting saronite and traces of fel within the daggers presented to the guests. They would reconcile on their second meeting within the Cathedral while she was apart of the Valryan Dominion as it's Highlord. They would start to have a decent friendship and began to meet every so often at the overlook within the Stormwind Docks, a place Reggad travels to in order to smoke. After a time they would establish they both wished to court one another, this lead to a meeting between Reggad and her parents, as well as him introducing her to his daughter Hope. Both of which went surprisingly well considering Reggad had never had to do either things in his life. The two continue to have a stable and caring relationship and only time will tell where things will lead them. Needless to say, one thing involves Reggad having to quit smoking.

Trivia
- Reggad has a habit of placing a toothpick in his mouth when in meetings in order to not light a cigarette and start smoking, this is also evident when he tries to quit but normally fails miserably.

- He is the Third person to take up the title of Regent-Lord of the Grizzly Hills, the first being Geranelm Syla, the second being Sellatix Dawnslayer before it returned to Geranelm Syla.

- Reggad is Dagger spelled backwards.

- His player has gone through so many changes with the character that he himself has gotten confused on Reggad's age and thus has just settled with thirty-one as a middle-ground until someone RPs trying to find it out.(Now found out to be 38!)

- Reggad was originally based off of Blackbeard and Jack Sparrow and was originally intended to be an Antagonistic character until his player realized those were hated and he made him more like a Dave Grohl-esque figure that became the Reggad we have today.

- His visual references outside of his art can vary from Phil 'CM Punk' Brooks and Dave Grohl depending on how he has his hair and how he is letting his face rest. (Brooks for when he has slicked back hair and a serious expression, Grohl for his hair hanging down and relaxed expression.)

- He has a terrible history with relationships.

- Despite having extensive history as a Naval Captain and having aided in many wars in the past. Reggad has a fear of commanding large groups of soldiers on his own. Despite his promotion to Commodore, he still holds this fear and it leaves him from making his own Legion.
