Personality

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

Passive and a little warming when in a public place and confronted, or confronting. Out in the elements he's more viscious, but still keeps cautiousness above that. He's has a very nasty view towards liars, and is vindictive when betrayed. It should also be known that he is manipulatable if the reasoning and causation sounds right to him.


History

Born in Lordaeron around the time after the First War. He had a stagnant childhood, mostly tending to his father's farm and livestock. It wasn't until the scourge invasion when things started to get interesting. He was 17 and was also a very good runner. he was able play hide and go seek against he ravenous undead until he could find a band of lordaeron refugees. He was still able to survive the following year, and when he turned 18 he resided in Hearthglen. considering what had happened to his homeland, and the fact that he had stayed, he later joined the Scarlet Crusade.

Rodderick was an archer for the Crusade. He learned how to use a bow and a crossbow, first the other, then the first one. He ended up liking the bow better though. He learned how to make flaming arrows, but rarely does so anymore. During his time in the plaguelands though, Rodderick had to make tough choices in the crusade. They were very zelous and absolute. He had to kill off "undead sympathizers" and people who were thought to be plagued. He helped hold off in Heartglen and have it remain a bastion of holy light. Unfortunately he did not see the corruption in the Crusade, and also like many of them led to the drastic measure of alienating anyone not apart of the crusade. He was later sent to Northrend, going to help establish New Hearthglen in Dragonblight.

In New Hearthglen he helped establish the city and later stoo on the walls to shoot at the evils below. He heard the news of the Argent Crusade, Horde and Alliance in Northrend and the whole campaign, he became anxious about it all. The Crusade by this time had had many leaders fall, and if the horde was here that obviously meant the Forsaken were. In a panic he left Hearthglen in the night, getting out hastily and running as fast as he could. He had his armor packed and the bow on his back. He played himself out as an adventurer and went west. In a fearful journey, he didn't find any help until finding the Tuskarr village in Dragonblight. He told them he was an adventurer. It wasn't a lie, he no longer considered himself a scarlet, he couldn't take anymore setbacks, anymore corruption, any more wrongful executions. He quickly painted his scarlet armor and donned it. After trading with the tuskarr he went east and spent a few years in the Grizzley hills. He avoided any contact with people except for the tuskarr whenever he ventured back to Dragonblight. He head about the Lich King's fall from the tuskarr, he knew it was over now.

Presently, he was told that the world has gone through a rough and terrible terraforming by Deathwing. Another thing he heard was the new war in the plaguelands, that's what really interested him. He came back to the Eastern Kingdoms very recently, after spending many years in Northrend.
