History

Avodore was born to two tinkerer parents. Although his parents were loving, they usually left Avodore to himself. They made him many mechanical toys and animals to entertain him with, which brought Avodore to play around with engineering at a young age. When he became of age, Avodore started doing repair work around Gnomeregan. Helping fix up their city trained Avodore to both think and plan ahead, following cause and effect along with probabilities. Following up his work with engineering, Avodore spent his free time alone in his own home, where he studied all things he could.

Over the years Avodore learned what he could, though not even a gnomish mind can hold all the information in the world. Avodore created his first invention, the P.R.R or Personal Recording Robot. It was helpful as it can store information for later use though the amount of storage is very limited to only a few bits of information at a time. Avodore used his invention to help him study and store information he would learn on a day to day basis.

Avodore wished to see more than the walls of Gnomeregan at the age of 106 and he started to grow restless, there was a world out there. Avodore joined the dwarven and gnomish efforts in aiding the humans retake their lands during the second war, though Avodore himself never saw combat in the fields. Through association, Avodore came into contact with the Kirin Tor, who also aided the conflict of the second war through Dalaran.

With the human lands reclaimed, Avodore left for Dalaran. It was there he joined the Kirin Tor in search of furthering his own knowledge on the arcane. Upon his arrival, Avodore knew nothing of the dangers that were to come later down the line. For 14 years he spent his time locked away in the libraries, keeping his mind and face shoved in the books. Having yet to see combat in its most true and brutal form, the sudden invasion of their home of Dalaran left Avodore and many other magi scattering from their city. Returning to Gnomeregan to find his other home has been invaded by troggs left Avodore with an empty heart but not an empty mind. He stayed to help relocate his kin and work to retake their home but there was little he could do.

Months passed and Avodore heard word of the return to Dalaran, one he joined. There he met up with many other magi who he helped rid their city of the left over scourge and stayed under the dome to help rebuild their city, preserving the knowledge and structure. The next 7 years flew by as he was busy restoring Dalaran to its former glory, after which it was relocated to Northrend, by what means Avodore is afraid he'll never know. It was there that he stayed until the cataclysm, fearing the end might be closer than he thought, Avodore took it upon himself to help establish a knowledgeable foothold for future generations of all races. What he doesn't know, he plans to learn and what he knows, he plans to share.
