Dasderos Vasiliev

Dasderos Vasiliev is the Colonel of the Indrustial Brigade, Landlord of Vasiliev Estate, and Co-Director of Barenland Tech.

History
Dasderos lived in a small village in the southern mountains of Alterac, Arbeitsdorf. His father, Redpath Vasiliev, was a Captain in the Bärenlandian Army, and commanded the Blokada Company during the Second War. As a military veteran, he was popular amongst the residents of the village. The Vasilievs hold a history and reputation as a military family and held a firm faith in the light. Thus, he grew up in a very nationalist and religious conservative household, which would mold his views and him as a person. When he enlisted in the Bärenlandian Militia (At the time, the Barenlandian government was overthrown by the Syndicate), he was timid, sickly pale, and scrawny in his youth, normally being harrassed for what people consider "abnormal appearance". He could hardly engage bladed combat, let alone, couldn't even hold a shortsword. Despise this, he'd excerise his blade and body daily. It eventually paid off, and became fairly built. What he lacked in strength, was his cunningess, and his officers very well acknowledge this. He'd exceed his fellow military peers, thanks to his expertise in battle, and rose into the ranks, thus promoted to Lieutenant.

At the time when the Scourge began sweeping into Lordaeron, he was the Lieutenant of the Blokada Company, and served directly under his father. Amidst the buildings of Stratholme  razed, thick air, soldiers trampling on eachother and rubble, and the smog covered sky, he'd saw his father falling victim to the Undead Scourge, seeing him being tackled from all sides to Ghouls, Skeletons, and to the horrendous Abominations. One by one, the Undead would fall, but numbers would soon overcome their forces. Only 30 of the Company survived the attack, and so Dasderos was unwillingly forced to retreat with the remaining of his men to the Scarlet Enclave. Him and his company was then appointed as High Priest Lightstrider's personal militia. Him and his company would be present in Tarren Mill-Southshore, Battle for Andorhal, and the War in Outland.

Then, the traitor prince, The Lich King in his wake, deployed his Champions, to wrought chaos upon the Enclave. The invasion was successful, driving the Scarlets out of one their last holdings. A devastating blow to the Crusade, which didn't seem that they could recover from it. Dasderos then took refuge in Tyr's Hand, and when he finally regained his strength, he left to Northrend to aid the Scarlet Onslaught and the Valiance Expedition's efforts against the Lich King in Northrend. And in the Sundering, fought the remaining corrupt forces of the Crusade. He'd hate fighting against his own brethren, but told himself that it was for to restore the Crusade's former glory and name, and to end their torment that was brought upon them by the Demon.

It was during the discovery of Pandaria, he'd finally return to Alterac. He was then given a new company, and named it after his former one, the Blokada Company and joined the National Capitalist Party. Served for City-State of New Alterac, Talongrab, Winterbreak, and House Lionblood under Rhalitra. After Barenland became independent again, seceding from House Lionblood, and became a vassal of New Alterac once again, he’d return to Kormed’s Scarlet Hand. Dasderos brought riflemen as reinforcements during the skirmish in Gallows corner with the Crushridge and Syndicate. They surrendered, and were all taken in as captives. Dasderos was granted overseer of the construction of the Baron's Blockade. When it was fully built, he became the official commander of the Blockade, and was appointed to the Head of Alterac Deep State.

Dasderos and Rhalitra joined the Silverblade Inquisition for a dinner in the Golden Keg. The day after, Dasderos received a letter from the Inquisition, an invitation to a ball in the Greymane Manor. When the ball concluded, Dasderos became confident in negotiating diplomacy with other powers. He’d allied with the Duchess of Silverfall, and joined her in a diplomatic meeting with the Stromic Covenant. Dasderos, though had other intentions, and attempted to orchestrate an ambush with the help of a few members of the Agramar Union, and the Duchy. The scheme failed, with the Duchy forces aborting, and escaped out of the span, while Rhalitra halted Das with his blade. He felt betrayed and humiliated, and ran off. He was then confronted in Stormwind, Telirius Lionblood threatening to hang him, so Rhalitra gave him a place to escape to, and isolate himself from the people and politics until the tensions die out. He became the landlord of Vasiliev Estate, naming the land after him.

A group of Alteraci called the Loyalists, pledged their allegiance to the Alliance, have multiple holdings in Alterac. Pawns of the House of Nobles, they attempt to eradicate Alterac's sovereignty. Naturally, Dasderos chose to step up against this unchallenged threat, and so Rhalitra granted him Colonel of the Industrial Brigade, leading his armies against them. Dasderos was promoted to the new Co-Director of Barenland Tech as well, succeeding Jonathan Thannister, who had disbanded the City-State. In the moment, Dasderos is currently writing the full history of Alterac, which he titled, the Chronicles of Alterac.

Personality and Beliefs
Dasderos is a member of the National Capitalist Party. Him and the members of the Party advocate industry, property rights, firearm freedoms, and a free market. He is a social and religious conservative, being brought up in a household that holds traditional values highly. Das is very nationalistic of his homeland, Alterac. At times, he can get too overzealous, lacking self control, and is quite impulsive. Das is ever rarely compassionate or attached to anyone, and would easily, with no reluctance, give up a life, or even multiple, determined by the situation, to accomplish his schemes. He is overly narcissistic, feeling intellectually superior to most people he meets, with the exception of one person, Rhalitra Haddinkov, who he looks up to as a god-like figure, as he’d practically worship and praise him. He is stern and unfair to his troops and officers below him. Ironically, the people perceive him as a brilliant and a considerate colonel, who would sacrifice himself for the greater good of Alterac. His would be past-times is bear hunting, tinkering with his gadgets, rocket, or guns, and bladed training.

Appearance
Dasderos is a lean and a sickly pale man. Despise this, the layers of armor he bares gives off a false illusion of him being muscular and built. His eyes are a brown hazel, yet dull and tired, apparent from the dark circles beneath his eyes. His skin has purple spots across his skin, bruised by the piercing cold. The tip of his fingers are almost numbed from the nippy winds. His back is slightly bent, and is normally accompanied with a black cane. Sometimes, his left hand would uncontrollably twitch, and covered it with the palm of his right hand. His arms either are tucked within his military coat, or placed on his back.
