History

Cordalia Darwall was born to a poor family in a time of great struggle, as everyone was preparing for the war they knew would come. Her family struggled to feed themselves, let alone her and her brother, Hazel.

A year after she was born, her mother was trying her hardest to feed Coco and Hazel, but was not having very much luck. Hazel would commonly be sent out to hunt, even though he was only eleven years old. Coco’s father was always spending time away, helping in the construction of the Greymane Wall. Coco would spend her time helping her mother and learning to fend for herself.

At the age of nine, Coco’s mother fell to a horrid sickness. The sickness lasted for five months before she finally died. Their father went into a deep depression, which left Coco and Hazel very much alone. They had to find their own food in less-than-honorable ways, which often meant stealing from merchants in the town square. This lead to Coco, through much trial and error, teaching herself how to move about unseen and unheard. In her and Hazel’s escapades, Coco was often used as a distraction due to her small and unintimidating size. She learned to throw objects very specifically, whether this was for an average prank or for a distraction. Coco and Hazel quickly became known throughout Gilneas as being troublesome ruffians.

When she was fifteen, she was truly left alone when Hazel, who was twenty-five, left Gilneas to fight for Stormwind in the Third War. Her father died of a heavy sickness coinciding with extreme depression. Coco had their entire home to herself, but it quickly fell to disrepair. Coco then spent much of her time hiding around and stealing in Gilneas, sleeping in hidden places where she would not be found.

And then the Civil War happened. Coco spent most of it confused, trying to get about without being killed. She was successful- for the most part. She received a number of injuries from stray fighters she had to escape. She stumbled across a dead man with a rifle. She took the rifle, and used it to dispatch a number of men who either tried to kill her or do some other horrid things. From her previous times, distracting people with precise throws, she quickly learned to place her shots for maximum effect. She survived like this for the length of the war. And then the Worgen came.

It didn’t take long for Coco to be cornered. She was darting through the broken streets when she noticed she was being stalked by a dark, lumbering creature. She tried to lose it, but in her fear she took a wrong turn into a dead-end ally. She could hear the creature approaching her, and she turned around just in time to see his jaws close down upon her. She woke up some time later outside of the Greymane wall. It was close to midnight, and the dark forest that surrounded her was singing a song of the aftermath of war; steel on steel, the roar of roaming Worgen, and the screams of falling men and women. Coco was scared, so she remained silent and stayed where she was.

Her first transformation was a long, painful and angry affair. She lost her mind to the curse, ruthlessly slaughtering man and animal that got near. She was shortly overrun and captured, and given back her sanity by the tests for a cure, and then proceeded to Tal'doren for the Night Elf rituals. She then traveled to Darnassus, but left as early as possible to explore the new world revealed to her- and to escape the horrors she had committed.
