He'd wearing a black silk hood covering his head entirely leaving only some of the eyes area shown. On his back hanging a cloak which lacks the lower part, it looks like it was ripped or clawed off. Each of his hands have a black claw attached to the wrist, his palm and fingers are always hidden within the claw tied nicely with black leather straps. Over the chest would be a Forsaken tabard very taken care of looking brand new, it would go under the black belt as it's lower part hangs over his crotch and butt areas.

Personality

Alignment: True Neutral

His personality is dark, cold and heartless, barely showing anything besides anger, annoyance and disgust for others. While he is such a dark Forsaken always serious and not a fan of jokes he still got his own outbursts when he throws in a joke or two which usually are extremely unfunny to the most people. However he seems to not push away the happy and enthusiastic companions most of the time lingering around them but without showing much interest. Still he doesn't hide the dislike for dramatic and depressive individuals.

History

Sorum was born by a thief withing a thief group known as The Dark Nectar. His father was never known as the mother was one of the easy women to bed, it might've been a noble or perhaps a beggar, she was unsure. Sorum was her only child oddly enough she didn't manage to get pregnant by then.

The Dark Nectar had it's base in one of the underground lairs in Lordaeron somewhere close to where Deathknell is currently while the training base was hidden in the Mountains that are surrounding Deathknell. The organization itself was rather big and well known within the thievery guilds, it's members were most of the time relatives resulting in a rather tight organization rarely having any traitors.

Sorum's mother was horrible at giving names due to the lack of education. That for when he was born she named him Sorum and nothing else, not knowing her own family name, quite a dumb woman indeed but having the looks to compensate. Guild's trainers accepted to train the child at a rather young age. He was about ten when he got his first dagger and his first hand crossbow. Sorum shown great grace and quite some talent in the ways he was taught over the years becoming a rather skilled rogue of the guild, he was taught the basic reading and writing as no one thought these would be needed anyway. He was taught to be loyal and respectful getting good at that quite quickly.

Sorum finally reached eighteen years old, now a rather fine man usually wearing a bandana over his forehead having his hair tied in a pony tail always having at least one dagger at his waist. He was quite charming and quite nice looking probably his mother's genes. Two more years of thievery passed rather quickly without many events. He started to drink quite a lot, always accepting a free drink no matter from who it came while still having quite enough money from his share.

Arthas returned from Northrend. Sorum decided to pay a visit to the castle itself having a friend there ready to spend the day with this friend talking in the gardens but their day was ruined as Arthas took over Lordaeron's throne. Chaos developing in the castle men fighting and dying everywhere. A brick falls off one of the walls and right on Sorum's head knocking him unconscious making him miss the whole thing. However opening his eyes after a while just to find an Undead army around himself and the mind no longer his, now serving the new king, marching along within the army his body no longer having a beating heart.

But after a while he rose against this new king breaking free from his command witnessing horrible memories, crimes that he committed. Something he could never imagine, now confused and scared hearing Sylvanas' call following without any question in the fight against Arthas afterwards joining Sylvanas and the others in Undercity. He was very respectful and truly valued the protection that the new queen offered. Forever thankful he did his best to please the new leader and help his new race.

When the Cult of the Forgotten Shadow was established he quickly joined finally finding something to believe in. Illius noticed Sorum's skills and decided to take him along with the others under his wing teaching them all. Sorum skills polishing and he started to develop a deep hate for The Holy Light and it's users for what happened, this influencing to go deeper in the belief of The Cult becoming one of The Dark Knights fighting against the ones that stood under the Light. His missions were mostly against The Scarlet Crusade, the group he hated the most.

He became a rather skilled Lightslayer developing a rather strong defense against Light based attacks. He grew very disciplined and very respectful towards his own kind, mostly the higher ranked in order to protect himself from unwanted actions doing missions for The Cult rather often being an active and somewhat known member. However going under the nickname Mister S as noone knows his real name but as long he does his job well no one should mind.

Skills and Abilities

Sorum's devotion to The Forgotten Shadow grants him a passive layer of defense against The Light making him reasonably resistant to Holy Light based attacks.

During the years in service he had the time between missions to study a few hours per day learning about the other races within Azeroth he tried to learn as much as possible in order to use that in his advantage.

Sorum spent months learning the teachings of The Forgotten Shadow and studying the beliefs of Light users now having a rather wide range of knowledge about Paladins and Priests learning their way of fighting and finding ways to counter them efficiently.
