"'If this war is to be my last, I will make sure I go out fighting. I am on the frontlines of Azeroth, making sure I fight for those who cannot. For I am the Lady of the Hellstriders.' "

Ranger-Lieutenant Sabariel Greenwood (Born of House Dawnbreaker) is not an average demon hunter, instead of being like the Illidari, she chooses to not perform their rituals to fight the ever growing numbers of demons, instead, standing clear of any fel magics, she uses her sharpshooter abilities and keen senses which have been honed over many years.

History
The eldest daughter born of Lord Serbanal and Lady Elizia Dawnbreaker was named Sabariel Elizabeth Dawnbreaker.

As she grew older, she started to show signs of not wanting to be like her parents, in the noble game. Her brother, Arthanal, quickly became a notable arcanist amongst Silvermoon. Where as her younger sister, Auril, and best friend Miliel Sunblade, a middle classed girl who aspired to be a royal guard, would follow her on adventures around the Eversong Woods, often getting in trouble by her mother when they come home covered in leaves and dirt from their expeditions.

As she became of age she decided that she would become a Farstrider. With her Marksmanship with her bow and the ever support of Auril, who also became a Farstrider, the two Dawnbreaker girls rose through the ranks quickly. Any mission those girls took was done as quickly as possible and as well as possible. Of course other Farstriders were able to mimic those traits, being the elite of course.

Second War
Soon after the two girls became Lieutenant Rangers, the second war broke out. With the clashing of Grand Alliance and the Orcish Horde, the two girls, as well as a few other Farstriders, were deployed into the battle, using guerrilla tactics, the sisters were able to cause heavy casualties on the Horde side until the two were eventually pulled back to Quel'Thalas.

Zar Tiros Modas
As more demons fell to Sabariel, the more infamous amongst them she became. As demons fell to her black arrows, they called her as such. Zar Tiros Modas, meaning The Black Arrow in demonic, was the name they bestowed upon her. As she became a larger threat, a Dreadlord took up the task to bring her death. However, Sabariel realising that she may be being plotted against, counter-acted the plot the Dreadlord attempted to trap her in, and was able to successfully plot against him. After her trap had been sprung, a quiver of fourty eight arrows and one decapitation later, the Dreadlord was killed. It is unknown whether he really died, or went back to the Twisting Nether.

Third War
When the Undead Scourge ripped through Silvermoon, the Dawnbreaker girls were able to stay alive. Their family not so much. With Lord and Lady Dawnbreaker falling during the invasion and Arthanal needing to feed on magic once again. Focused on keeping her younger sister alive, the two fled the city, with the permission of the new Ranger-General. As they were about to leave the city they caught a glance at what had become of Arthanal, twisted by fel, his eyes blazed green, which were once blue. Upon seeing their people twisted by the magics which they craved, their resolve to defeat those that would destroy them would now be greater. And so they split up and went their separate ways; Auril to hunt dangerous creatures, and Sabariel to hunt demons.

Battle Between Dawnbreaker's
On a crossing of the Thandol Span, the only known bridge between the the Northern Eastern Kingdoms and the South, Sabariel saw Arthanal crossing the other way, at this time his once blue eyes had turned a fierce green and his once dark blonde hair had begun turning grey. After a few words of hate were expressed across the two of them, a duel broke out. Which Sabariel managed to win barely, making Arthanal take a black arrow to the shoulder, and causing him to fall of the bridge. Sabariel later checked for his body, but none was found. She assumed that he was dead and his body lay on the bottom of the ocean. After this, Sabariel began using the name 'Greenwood'.

The Highguard
After hunting a number of demons, Sabariel began to realise that there were beginning to be more of them. Worried that something may be coming, Sabariel turned to her long time friend, Miliel Sunblade, to see if she had a place where she would be welcome, and sure enough she had just the place. After speaking with Ranger-Lady Aeriyth Dawnsorrow, Sabariel was reinstated her rank of Farstrider Lieutenant, and has shared her arrow-head plans with their engineers.

Shattered Memories
A hunting party was formed between Sabariel and a few of her friends, heading towards Felwood with a notice which stated that demonic activity had begun to spike. After attempting to stop their numbers rising, Sabariel and her group decided to clear out a cave. However all memory of the cave, and whatever happened inside remained, was lost somehow. When Sabariel awoke, her armour and weapons were missing... and her boyfriend, Haleaen Nightflare, was missing. The report from the confirmation team was irregular however it confirmed his death.

Preparing the Hellstriders
After a conversation with Ranger-Lady Dawnsorrow, Sabariel has agreed to teach those of the Highguard how to counter-act demons. With the mind to create a division known as the Hellstriders, Sabariel has gotten quite the task to teach the entirety of the Highguard. However, as a private specialist company, working in the background as to not interfere with other commitments, she begins to recruit her friends and those wanting to join the cause. The cause to slay the demons of Azeroth and counter-act any plans they make.

Assault on Dawnbreaker Port
Deciding the her Hellstrider's needed a port to allow for a navy, Sabariel and her friend Jackson surveyed the Barony that was Dawnbreaker Port, the land which by right belonged to Sabariel. Amassing their forces, they swiftly snatched the city and land from the grasp of the garrisoned Scourge. Sabariel was critically wounded during the fight and was evacuated to safety. Upon waking up, she heard the news of her Hellstriders Victory and the death of one of her members, Milla. After forcing her way out of bed, she met up with one of her friends within the Highguard, who proposed to her. She accepted and an impromptu wedding ceremony occurred within the hour.

To Dream a Nightmare
Sabariel had been missing for two weeks before people begun to notice her disappearance. After Lord Firesong tracked her down during the Tournament of Ages, they discovered her location was within Fenris Isle. After a week of planning, Auril Dawnbreaker, led a strike force made up of Highguard and Hellstriders to assault the Keep, where she was taken captive by the Legion. Hoping to turn her into a sleeper agent, the strike force was just able to get to her before they began the brainwashing. Taken back into friendly care, Sabariel would be put straight into the Clinic to heal and get her strength back, suffering from blood loss, starvation, dehydration and so on.

In Defense of the Burning Shadow
Sabariel, assigned her new station of Huntmaster of the Hellguard by Alar'ashisore Dawnsorrow, departed with the Highguard forces towards the Broken Shore, knowing slightly of what happened to her Hellstrider Forces on the Beach of Blood. After fighting their way through the countless lines of the Legion, standing firm in the face of adversity, firing Black Arrows deep into the demons black hearts and skulls. Sabariel fought without tire with the Highguard Forces in an attempt to drive back the Legion.

The Elves would soon be disheartened as many of their champions and friends fell to the Legion. Tirion Fordring, King Varian to name a few. Bearing their teeth at the Legion, the forces continued on fighting until they were pulled back as the Horde forces left the Alliance to die in the field of battle. King Varian sacrificed himself so that others could live.

Sabariel and the other elves woke up aboard an Alliance gunship. Having witnessed all the demons she had slain return, Sab runs to the edge and throws her bow off the side, screaming and sobbing disheartening gibberish. Alenore immediately begins to attempt to calm her down. Soon Sab came to, recalling her bow to her hand and wandering off towards the portal of Dalaran, ready to fight the Legion once more.

On the assault and the rescue of the First Defensive
Once Dalaran had been ported to the Broken Isles, Sabariel's first task would be to track down her sister. Starting in Azsuna, Sabariel found the ship wreck that was the Heart of Dawn, not much could be found within the mangled wreckage, few valuables were onboard to begin with, however, Sab managed to rescue the family photo that had been in the captain's cabin. Next Sabariel moved through Stormheim and Highmountain, however no trace could be found of Auril or the First Defensive. Upon entering the thick forest of Val'sharah, the trail had picked up again, heading towards a dark and twisted part, corrupted by the Nightmare, Sabariel, one of the Highguard knights and a few mercenaries that would fight to save Auril, stormed the dark and twisted forest and rescued Auril, Arthanal and the remaining Hellstriders of the First. Sab would be happy with her sisters return, but took some major convincing to allow Arthanal back.

Appearance
Sabariel stands quite tall for an elf at 6 foot with quite a delicate frame to support her elven beauty. With such a slender and thin body, most would be curious as to how Sabariel was strong enough to slay her prey and often dismiss her as a hoax or a fraud to the name Demon Hunter, however her actual body is never seen, hidden beneath her silver and blue armour is her quite pale skinned body, although not muscular, has hints of being strong with a semi-toned stomach. On her chest, at the bottom of her ribs on her right side, she still has a scar from when she was stabbed with a bolt of ice by her brother. Other than this scar, her body does not hold any other marks.

Often hidden by the hood of her cloak, Sabariel's face is quite beautiful with soft features, her skin, although pale, is soft and always kept clean; with never a droplet of sweat upon her brow. Her lips, which are often in a caring smile or smirk, are soft and naturally red. Sabariel's sand blonde hair is as soft as her smile and as gentle as a breeze, if one were to touch it, her hair would be like fine silk thread, soft as her face and as soft and fresh snow through the Hellstrider Enclave.

"The way her cloak billowed in the wind, her scarf trailing into the breeze with her long blonde hair flowing continuously however not a strand blew out of place in front of her eyes. Those blue eyes, affixed and focused however held a balance between an immense hatred and a discipline able to rival those of the Shado-Pan. On her back she held those two quivers, countless arrows ready to be fired into her enemies at will. Her smile was ever present, calm and pleasant to behold with her pale and soft skin. This is Lady Sabariel Dawnbreaker, a hunter of demons and Farstrider. "

Relationships
Sabariel has made a multitude of friends who she has come to consider close. Others may be minor friends of hers yet she treats them all the same. Having a friendly personality help her gain the friendship of many and her work often interests many a traveler.

Miliel Sunblade
One of Sabariel's oldest friends and still best friend to date, Miliel Sunblade gained her friendship with Sabariel when the Dawnbreakers took her in to help her family out, from then on Miliel and Sabariel have been best friends, even to the extent of Sabariel dragging Miliel to a party at which by the end she was engaged. Even Miliel becoming a Death Knight, did not stop their friendship, and now they serve the Highguard and Ranger-Lady Aeriyth Dawnsorrow.

Lady Auril Dawnbreaker
Sabariel's younger sister, Auril, is the last known other of the Dawnbreaker line, Both Auril and Sabariel became Farstriders as soon as they turned the age. Their relationship has been close yet distant since the fall of Silvermoon, with Sabariel taking up her demon hunting job and Auril becoming a bard and hunter of exotic creatures based in Booty Bay. Their relationship has grown closer now Auril has taken up the mantle of Quartermaster of the Hellstriders now.

Haleaen Nightflare
Sabariel's first love, she met him soon after she joined the Highguard, often finding him depressed in a tavern, drowning his sorrows. Eventually the two began courting and became rather close, which gave Haleaen his strength to look towards the future with her by his side. This all ended when due to an uncertain chain of events, he went missing and was confirmed dead. Several months later, one of his friends came to a devastated Sabariel and gave her a small box with a ring inside, stating he was going to ask her to marry him before he died. She now wears it on a chain around her neck.

Commander Jackson Amadatha
One of Sabariel's more recent friends, Commander Jackson Amadatha, has become rather close to her, originally befriended by him due to Kylontheas Runestrider talking about her day and night to him; beginning to talk to each other more and more they became close friends, eventually asking him to join the Hellstriders, which she led.

Despite spending a lot of time together, Sabariel has stated that she is not romantically interested in Jack, yet Jack has told her his feelings for her. A romantic relationship between to two isn't going to happen due to Sabariel's morals and the fact she doesn't like Jack romantically, nor will she in the future.

Marius and Sivictus Salrigious
These two were amongst the first to befriend Sabariel when she arrived in Stormwind after a long time, Marius a traveler who takes interest in long lost relics and magics and Sal, a generally grumpy yet nice enough alchemist. The three became good drinking buddies quickly, often spending a night at the Blue Recluse in Stormwind watch Marius get drunk. Often enthralled by Sabariel's tales of her demon slaying, where in turn Sabariel would listen to Marius' stories of travel to exotic places and his skills at fishing.

Lord Arthanal Dawnbreaker
Although not a friend of Sabariel, she still has a relationship with him due to him being her brother. Often bullying her for her choices of not becoming a noble woman and an arcanist. As he and her got older, they became to respect each other more until he went off with Prince Kael'thas and turned to the Fel; At that point Sabariel lost all respect for him and her and Auril left Silvermoon. Eventually the two came to blows on the Thandol Span, which ultimately ended in Arthanal defeat. Reluctantly, Sabariel has somewhat forgiven her brother.

Aellandeil Sunheart
Sabariel met Aellandeil during the Vermilion Ball, as he asked her to the dance and he wrote a poem within the space of fifteen minutes that was able to turn all the women in the room to blush, he and her soon came closer over the space of two months. After Sabariel was rumoured to be dead within the Highguard, he almost broke into madness until Sabariel awoke on her sister's ship and let those of the Highguard know she was alive. He soon proposed to her and she accepted and the Ranger-Lady Aeriyth Dawnsorrow married them.

Anti-Demon "Black" Arrows
Her arrows are unique in the fact that the barbs of the head spiral down the shaft slightly, as the arrow is loosed, the arrow spins, as the arrowhead hits the armour or shield, it acts like a drill to dig further into the metal than normal tipped arrows. Stronger metals, like saronite, make the arrow break with its force, but leaving a noticeable dint in the armour. The colour of the arrow comes from the wood she uses, using a dark, almost black wood, which is rather stronger than normal wood. Hence the name Black Arrows.

Companions
Sabariel has more than human companions on her hunt, each of the many animals she holds friendship with help her in more ways than one.

Isabella
The companion hawk of Sabariel is Isabella, trained to deliver letters and orders to and from Sabariel where ever she is. The two met while Sabariel was on her early hunts, Isabella initially began to follow Sabariel throughout the Hinterlands. From then on the two became very good companions, going on many travels.

Puddles
While Sabariel went on a weekend 'hunt' - She went on holiday - to Pandaria, she began to be followed by a goat as she went to the Valley of the Four Winds. The goat began to give Sabariel a smile as he started his strange behaviour of running into puddles at times, this granted him his name as such. Puddles. As Sabariel returned to the actual hunt, she bought Puddles with her, training him to be her mount of war. Puddles soon went missing during the Fall of Stromgarde campaign. However he later turned up at Dawnbreaker Port and was cared for by Auril's ten year old son, Liliem.

Quotes
- "The Scourge slaughtered my people, to watch a thing leaves the mind destroyed. Madness took my brother, causing him to feed off Fel energy. Resolve took my sister and she went South do what what she had to. And left me alone and with a need to counter the Legion, the real masterminds behind the destruction. Over the years, I forged myself into a weapon. And now they are the prey and I am the hunter; and if they keep coming, I will keep killing." Sabariel about her past.

- "Arthanal! You have caused me and Auril a feeling worse than death, seeing you, our own brother, turned to madness. I will end this here. Tonight, I'll avenge Mother and Father, as you failed to protect them." Sabariel during her confrontation with Arthanal.

- "They are the prey, and I am the hunter" Sabariel's motto.

- "It is okay, it is life I suppose, and it must continue for those that still linger. The initial shock has passed yet the gap remains" Sabariel when consoled by one of her friends.

- "Run fast demon! For I've a quiver of friends that fly faster than you do!" Sabariel, attempting to scare her prey.

- Sabariel walks up to the female, drawing her pistol and aiming it between her eyes. "I am Lady Sabariel Greenwood, hunter of demons. Do tell me, would you like a cookie?"
