Beauregard Dawntreader

Balderich of Andorhal (Born Balderich Odolf Dawntreader, 15th of August 2 L.C.) is a knight and apprentice cleric, he is a devout follower of the Holy Light since his youth. Balderich trained under the guidance of his father, uncle, and a bishop, they served as Balderich's spiritual advisor and mentor. Balderich was put through very rigorous and inhumane training so he can be gifted with the gift of Light and advanced martial prowess. He was offered a place in the Order, thus the Knights of the Silver Hand--the young paladin were born. At the Light's Chapel, Balderich became the first Dawntreader to be an official Knight of the Silver Hand. It was a glorious moment for the Dawntreader family.

Dawntreaders are infamous for their zealotry and strict religious commandments. Not only they were known for that, but they were also known to have in possession of powerful ancient artifacts; Plate of Illumination, Masque of Illumination, and Mhaaq, the Ghost of the Past. One of these artifacts' power became so great it drove several Dawntreader men, including Balderich's father, Odolf Dawntreader to madness and unfortunately the bishop had to seal these artifacts away to prevent any further tragedies.

Shortly before the fall of Andorhal, the artifacts were presented to Balderich by the bishop, the same one who sealed these artifacts away because he knew he did not have a choice but to don the mask on the late son of the Dawntreader, believing that Balderich could save Lordaeron from the Scourge. Balderich fought valiantly, slew the rampaging scourge in his path to an extent that he grew desperate and reckless, the burden of thousands of people believing in him to save them from the Scourge. Balderich failed and now he shall spend the rest of his life with guilt. However, he still believes that someday he can save Lordaeron by restoring the kingdom to its former glory.

=[Physical Appearance]=

Balderich is an exemplar of a Paladin gifted with the embrace of the Light and an excellent martial prowess. Balderich physically looked like a man in his early 40's. He has a black pompadour and sporting a friendly mutton chop and blue eyes. His battered skin was marked with deep scars due to his status as a veteran of wars. Although possessing a somewhat heavy built, he was yet able to fight with ease against his foes.

Unlike the other knights of the Silver Hand, he wore the set of Illumination armor.

=[Personality]=

Balderich of Andorhal is one of Silver Hand's most trusted officer and tactician in the Order. Aside from his excellent strategic skills and swordplay, Roark is an intimidating individual who immediately asserts that both his enemies and comrades should be afraid of him, Balderich is widely respected among his peers. He has proven to be capable of being merciful and stubbornly withhold honors in any circumstances.

To his credit, Balderich is both a dangerous zealot and loyal knight in equal measure - being one of the most trusted Officers in the Alliance, he does not blindly follow his superior's orders, without hesitation, he will outright refuse to act if the order does not align with his infamous "The Dawntreader beliefs". Yet, he devoted himself to the task of fighting the Horde and the undead in support of the plan that the Alliance had. His respect and love for the Silver Hand know no bounds.

Balderich is capable of working with his enemies, albeit rather begrudgingly at first. Even though he stated outright that he hated forsaken more than anything, he advanced his capacity to adapt by working with the enemies. Balderich' benevolent side was more prevalent in the cities, in which he was depicted as a caring gentleman who sought to punish evildoers and bring peace to Azeroth, even empathizing with his friend, a member of the New Horde, grievances against the Horde's ideology despite all of the terrible things Horde had done. Even though he had a benevolent side, he has some negativity within him.

=[Armament]=

Mhaaq, the Ghost of the Past
A fairly large, broad, squared head made of adamanite and is held by thick shaft with a grip wrapped in strange, royal blue stag leather.

With just a large, blunt face this weapon is the ideal choice to shatter his enemies' bones with ease.

The mace has a small trimmed crossguard, creating the ideal weight balance to allow for smooth and accurate swings with this hammer. A massive pommel is marked "Mhaaq" which earned a moniker, 'The Ghost of the Past' due to its ghostly appearance.

This weapon is crafted for a Dawntreader Eques. A decent weapon that serves its purpose.

Masque of Illumination
The Masque of Illumination is an ancient artifact that is currently donned by him. The mask is known for its power, helps Balderich understand and wield the light to its fullest extent. The materials and the origin of this mask are unknown, the only information regarding this artifact that it was crafted by paladins and priests.

But donning the Masque of Light comes with a risk!

Plate of Illumination
Plate of Illumination is fairly sized in form and covered with layers of light etchings, yet this imposing armor rests lightly upon the wearer. It was crafted by Paladins and Priests, along with the Masque of Illumination, and given to Balderich to make him nearly invulnerable.

Like the Masque of Illumination, this beautiful, yet haunting armors has the ability to conserve light energy for later usage if the wearer ever needs it!

=[Biography]=

The Impeccable Legacy of the Dawntreaders
A large family and friends surround the Dawntreader parents, they had waited with anticipation to witness the birth of not one, but two Dawntreaders. Vanja had struggled for quite some time, screaming in agony before it had all come to a blissful end with the breaking sound that was Balderich's sister’s first cry. A few moments later, Balderich was born, lifelessly, the Bishop rushed to the child's aid and cradled the lifeless body until bright light shined through the window, shining upon the body before it jolted, the child came back to life, crying. The day was August 15th, -2 L.C. The newborn had been welcomed into the world by his parents and the crowd that watched the childbirth.
