             Perhaps the Gods were laughing at him. Every time Atreus left the safety of his so called home something bad befell him. Be it the destruction of the Silver Hand, to the sacking of Lordaeron he simply was born with tragedy in his blood.

But his king had asked something of him—something precious—and Atreus would have never forgiven himself had he refused Varian's request to watch over the recovering Anduin during Garrosh's trial. Even now with the shackles around his wrists from his Forsaken captors Atreus had only the regret that the small party of soldiers he was travelling with lay slaughtered while he still lived. It always seemed to be his path—to be the one that lived on when his people died around him.

He should've waited to travel back with bulk of the Alliance Forces and not take the word that a ceasefire would last even after the trial's conclusion but Atreus had missed Stormwind and did not like being so far out—so exposed—and thus had bowed out as soon as his duties were fulfilled. Being attacked on the road had not been something Atreus had been anticipating. He would not make that mistake again, should he get out of this...

“Are ye really going to deny an old man his walking stick? I should be flattered yer so afraid of the likes of me.” he grumbled to one of his captors, one he did not recognize other than the fact they were Forsaken. “ I'm sure you're going to drag me even if I fall over but certainly it would go a lot smoother if ye just let me walk with some support.”

You know, it might have just worked had Atreus not laid eyes upon one Sylvanas Windrunner ahead on the road and his captors suddenly snapped to attention, cane and the sword hidden within it pulled away just before he could grab it.

I’m familiar with most lore up to Shadowlands, I’ve yet to play through the expansion but I’ve read up on it.

— BIO

Born in Lordaeron Atreus had mostly a quiet childhood, though he was not the favourite of his parents children he made do, and when the Knights of the Silver Hand were reformed Atreus now a man joined their ranks to train to be a Paladin. He had not been present when Arthas returned to destroy the Order (something he regrets to this day) and spent a lot of his time trying to help people escape the plague and the fighting, using his abilities to see refugees safely on ships to get to Stormwind and Khaz Modan after his homeland was destroyed.

On his own, stranded from other members of his Order Atreus thought it best to board the last boat to Stormwind, thinking perhaps he may be able to do some good there, there must always be Paladins in the world to help fight against the evil that had been awoken.

He injured his leg helping people escape from Lordaeron, getting trapped under the rubble and chose to heal those around him instead of himself and by the time he was dug out the damage was done and it couldn't be healed correctly.

He served in the army for Stormwind, working hard and proud until he’d been promoted to be a general to lead and train those around him.

He now resides in Stormwind, training both Paladins and those who serve in the Stormwind Army.
