Soran Zarithium

Soran Zarithium was the last head of the Zarithium family, a prominent grain farming lineage in the city of Andorhal. In his early life, he was groomed to be the next head of the family, but he openly embraced it. Soran was arranged to marry the youngest daughter of the Tulimen family, Mabel Tulimen. The Tulimens were responsible for the export of the Zarithium's, as well as most of the other large farms' grain distribution.

Mabel and Soran first had a daughter, Jane Cinder Zarithium, which they were ultimately displeased with. Soran wanted a son, and Mabel had no say in the matter. When Jane was two, Syllon was born. Syllon was supposed to be Soran's prodigy, but Syllon had other plans for his life. Soran beat the child, but could not form him in his own image. When Syllon and Jane were still quite young, Jane was taken by Orcs. She was never found, and soon after, Syllon left for the Silver Hand.

After the departure of his son, Soran had no heir. It was a few years before the Third War began, with Andorhal being one of the first settlements to be attacked. Soran and Mabel Zarithium were lucky enough to survive the first battle, but ultimately perished in the ensuing campaign through Lordaeron by Arthas. Mabel was turned into a ghost while Soran was slain outright and his corpse left to rot.
