Personality

Korius is a kind person, willing to help every person he finds in need. He will dedicate 120% of his abilities to help that person. Korius is very lawful; he does everything that he is commanded to do, and does it without questioning the order, unless the order will break any of the Paladin's libram laws he wrote himself.

If Korius said he would do something, he'll commit 100% to it; that is why he promises all the time, stating that he will accomplish the task given to him and if he will not, he won't until until he can. If he did come back without completing the task, he would feel very humiliated.

History

Korius was born a bastard. Living with his mom, Vesper, he had a tough life. While his mom was hard at work at building Stormwind he was out with the kids, when she wasn't she was homeschooling him, teaching him about the history of the world and about her kingdom.

When Korius reached the age of six, his mother expected to get payment from Stormwind for her hard work building the city, they didn't want to pay his mom and they had a rough life for the first three years but after that she decided she had to send him to the abbey for his safety. He cried when he first left her grip, wishing to go with her, but he couldn't; she promised him she would come back for him, and the only thing he could do was agree.

Korius had a rough time at the abbey, not getting along with the people in there. He would run away to cry alone under a tree behind the abbey. The people in the abbey tried to help him, but nothing much helped because he wanted to be with his mother. A year after he went to the abbey he had finally agreed to have hope that his mother would come back to see him, and that hope was key to him using the Light.

Korius started to help in the abbey, doing all kinds of chores like cleaning the leaves around the abbey, or helping cleaning the main hall. He tried to not cause any trouble like he did a few months ago when he ran away and caused everyone to worry.

Two years later he was finally able to start learning about the Light. The priests in the abbey were more than glad to help him learn the ways of the Light, but the Light wasn’t the only thing he was looking for. He wanted to become a knight, a paladin with bright armor, and help keep the law; that nothing like what happened to his mother would happen ever again.

Korius started to learn the virtues of the Light. Although the progress was slow, it was very good, because he had faith with himself; with the fact the he would see his mother again, someday, and that she would be well where ever she was living. That faith gave him the motivation to learn the Light.

More years passed, and Korius was eighteen. He started learning how to wield a shield and sword. He had already learnt the ways of the Light, but he was still an amateur, knowing only the basics. He had to learn alongside with his sword training, which was hard at first, but he started to get the swing of it. After two more years with the sword he started learning how to wear mail armor and how to use the shield.

At twenty one, knowing most of the Light's ways and little of the swords, he was finally able to attain squirehood, but no one was able to take him because they did not want a poor boy from the abbey, except for one man, Doyle Lynch.

Doyle took Korius to become his squire and teach him how to wield a sword and teach him more in the ways of the Light and knighthood. He would have a far way to go, but someday he would become a fine knight, and find his mother.

While fighting the forsaken at Southshore all seemed lost when the Black Dragon came from the depths to bring chaos to the world, Korius and other soldiers were sent to scout enemy information and a refugee camp for the survivors of Southshore's demise.

While scouting he heard a howling noise, he separated from his group to find his father being attacked by several worgen, he rode to help him and during the fight he got bit in his shoulder and his father got mixed with Worgen blood, making the two cursed, or so Korius thought.

The two were taken into Gilneas, where they were treated against the curse's harsh side-effects, alas it was then discovered that since Korius is a paladin the curse did not effect him. The two were sent from there to Darnassus, to learn more of what his father became,. The two have later returned to the shattered Stormwind, to continue with their lives, each on their own path, though more united as a family as he needs to help his father with the curse.
