Krystion Shadowthorne

How can you not trust that smile?

Appearance
Krystion is tall and handsome, with strong features. His clothes are immaculate, his eyes intense and expressive. Perhaps he looks a little too put-together, never a hair out of place. But his confidence is unwavering and his charm irrepressible, and when he gets talking about a subject on which he feels passionately, he lights with an inner fire that can be seen for miles.

History
Born to common poor apothecaries, Krystion's natural talent in magic won him scholarships to academies of the arcane to which he might not otherwise have had access. His studies were uneven; often refusing to do tasks he viewed as mundane drudgery, the moment a challenge or new idea caught his attention he would throw himself into it with a fiery passion. Eventually his studies took him to Dalaran, where he came of age just as the Scourge attack came upon Silvermoon, at which time Krystion returned home to volunteer in the military. He was active through the Northrend campain, and came home a decorated veteran, at which point he attempted to retire to his personal studies and endeavors -- only to be called back into service to bolster the magisters' numbers in the Sunreaver Onslaught.
