Personality

A good-hearted, boisterous fellow with a certain flare for the dramatics. In his youth he was rash, to-often flinging himself into a skirmish on a whim without the consequences. But his faith in the Light and the recent death of his father have taught him patience and a the value of tactics. He still has a rash temperament, but more of a controlled anger. One thing that hasn't changed scenes he was a youngling, he still has that free spirited will in his heart, along with his deep seated hatred for the forces of evil. He cares not what the color of ones skin or the height of his body nor the shape of ones foot, only that they are good and believe in Right-action.

History

Tristen was but a lad of 19 when we was called to war against the foul orcs who came back through the dark portal to Azeroth. He took up arms as a foot soldier, leaving his home of Stratholme and his father a poor Knight by the name of Olav Whiteblood. He hoped not for fame or riches but to serve under his childhood idol Sir Anduin Lothar. Truth be told all he wanted out of life were two things; to be just, like his loving father and become a Knight, and to serve under Sir Anduin Lothar. He rose slowly in the ranks, seeing many battles before he was given the honor of serving under the command of the famed Paladin, Highlord Alexandros Mograine. Serving under him for the rest of the second war. Tristen's last battle of the war was the assault on Blackrock Spire. Led by the Alliance supreme commander Sir Anduin Lothar the Alliance was able to win the pivotal battle that ensured their victory over the orcish Horde.

Soon after the battle word reached Tristen's ears of Sir Lothars death at the hands of Orgrim Doomhammer. Happiness over their victory quickly became sadness with the news of his idols death, Tristen wept along with the few survivors of Lothars company. After the war was over he returned home.

Four years later living in his own home outside of Stratholme with is father, Tristen received a letter saying that for his involvement in the war he will be given the choice to come to the headquarters Order of the Silver Hand in Strathomle. There he was told that he was to be trained in the ways of the Light and to be among the ranks of the noble Paladins. After his training was complete he was sent to Stormwind to protect the city and its people. There he stayed until he learning of the destruction of Stratholme, and that the Order of the Silver Hand was now split into two factions the Scarlet Crusade and the Argent Dawn. He is getting on in years and now seeks to harden himself so he can make the journey to what is now called the Plaguelands so he may discover what has become of his once beautiful home. The two factions that now separate his great order. But most, to find out how his loving father died?
