At the same time, they did not hate each other, and both parents had a special spot for their son Bartholomew. As he grew, he learned much about trading, his families main source of business. At his insistence, his Father also began to train him in weapons, hiring the best combat master around. This is how Bartholomew grew up, learning business from his father and weapons from his master, as well as simply being a supporting figure.

By the time the boy was 15, he was apt at both business and battle, although he never actually experienced war. However, when he reached the age of 21, everything went wrong. The Scourge attacked and destroyed Lordaeron. Bartholomew was slain and raised, going onto slay the innocent in under the Lich King's command. Then Sylvanas freed him from the command of Arthas. Bartholomew remembered the atrocities he had commited, taking up an axe and working to carve out a place for the Forsaken.

During the many years, Bartholomew followed the Dark Lady, never working for her directly but always working towards her goals. He was trained by a Dark Ranger who he had fought under. Eventually, his loyalty was recognized and he was dubbed an executioner, his new goal slaying the enemies of the Forsaken. Bartholomew was extremely talented at this, eventually exchanging his old weapon for an axe given to him by the Dark Ranger he served. Bartholomew serves faithfully to this day, hunting down those who might oppose the Dark Lady.
