Appearance

He adorns a robe of blue when in public, generally keeping the appearance of a Mage. Even so, Itarius sports a myriad of disguises ranging from a peasant to a traveling merchant and will employ the use of said disguises if he deems it appropriate. However, when left to his own or to those he trusts he shows his true colors, that being red.

Other : If he's been away on prolonged visits elsewhere, he typically returns with pale looking skin.

Personality

Itarius will attempt to put up facade after facade of personalities in order to lull those around him into a false sense of trust. He will always work to silently supplant those around him that he deems a threat, and almost never ceases to manipulate. This trait of his is only suspended when he feels it would be counter intuitive to his plans to do so. He does, however, know that rewarding his sympathizers in any reasonable way is important, and will do so when he deems fit. At heart, Itaruis is a rather cold-hearted individual. Deeming himself above moral law frees him of most restraints that displease him. He will stop at nothing to establish his agenda. He secretly abhors the Church and according to his opinions views it as an "unnecessary and harmful social institution that inhibits the growth of Humanity". Though he will only confess this to a like-minded, trustworthy individual.

History

Itarius Brennan was born to an upper-middle class family living in the semi rich section of neighborhoods of the first Stormwind Keep. Though the budget was barely within the family's ability to afford, his father insisted they live in the most socially advantageous dwelling they could get.

This led to meager meals on the table, as most of the money was going to the mortgage. The upbringing was an odd one for young Itarius, adding to the already peculiarity of his nature. Childhood is not a fond memory of Itarius'. Even so, financial stability eventually followed. Even so, the peace that Itarius' father and mother had was hardly cordial. Over time the relationship between the two became so divisive that when Itarius was of twenty years old his mother murdered his father in cold blood.

Though the event was tragic, Itarius felt nothing towards his parents except bitterness and resentment. Taking his inheritance money as the sole child of his parents, Itarius traveled North in a matter of months to Dalaran, and applied to the Violet Citadel. Though he was initially accepted, Itarius never successfully graduated, as the Second War interrupted his schooling and his inheritance money had run out by the time the war had ended.

Itarius stayed in Dalaran for some time, attempting to raise appropriate funds as well as continue on in lesser schools of Arcane in the city. It was during his pursuits as an independent scholar that he became exposed to Fel Magic, and became entranced by it from the moment he first experienced it. Learning from his superiors, who of course taught Itarius in the shadowy side of Dalaran, Itarius eventually became quite adept at Fel Magic. He was made a Warlock just before he left Dalaran for the newly reconstructed Stormwind City.

Arriving in Stormwind, Itarius made himself known to the fledgling Stormwind Magus Sanctum, and helped establish a meager amount of books and the like that he had accumulated while at Dalaran. This was all in the spirit of self-interest and hopes in gaining respect and prestige with his fellows Magi. He has had no bad standing with the King, and stays to himself most of the time, keeping a low profile.

Since then, Itarius has honed his skills as a Warlock, and seeks to increase his spheres of influence and powers. Though it remains to be seen what his larger goals may be.

It wouldn't be surprising if he is involved in something rather... sinister...
