Manastill

==Name==
Sesil Manastill
==Physical Traits==
In life Sesil was a tall, thin man with a long pointed face. He had dark, empty eyes and long greasy hair along with a curly moustache. He would often give a sickly grin which would reach up to his eyes.
In death Sesil was very much the same except that his head (which had been decapitated) had been sewn back on. His jaw was also broken, making his trademark grin lobsided.

==Background==
Sesil was born and raised in the small town of Darrowshire with his two parents and younger brother Jocil. He lived a normal childhood showing none of the treacherous and deceitful traits he gained as an adult. Like most mages he showed his skills at a young age, his ability of conjuring the arcane was pronounced even without training. His abilities were soon noticed by the local magi and at the age of sixteen he was sent to Dalaran for further training.
Sesil's abilites grew quickly in Dalaran, mainly due to the training from his master Erik Spelltweek. Under Spelltweek, Sesil acted as an apprentice along with an older Nelson DeBreton . The two students become great friends yet Sesil always held a secret ambition to be seen as the better student in Spelltweek's eyes. Yet both of the apprentices strengths lay in different areas of the arcane. Nelson was most gifted in the enchantment school where as Manastill was in illusion. When Nelson was honoured with the title of professor in enchantment, Sesil always held a silent grudge against his former classmate. This grudge would esculate when Sesil discovered Nelson was courting one of his own students, Gloria Whitaker. Never knowing love himself, years of jealousy errupted inside Sesil and he lashed out against his friend. They both duelled and resulting in fatally wounding Gloria, from that moment on the two mages friendship would forever be broken.
When Sesil finished his studies and was recognised as a mage, he began working for the Kirin Tor as a geologist, studying various rocks and natural materials.
It was during the Third War that saw several influences change Manastill. The first was hearing the news about his home of Darrowshire being destroyed. Manastill was swallowed by grief and listened to no one who offered him hope that his family may have survived. This grief and past old jealousy was the key to Yogg Saron's influence upon him. With the discovered continent of Northrend, samples were delivered to Dalaran for study. Among these samples were pieces of rock and metal including saronite. Sesil studied the metal for weeks, locking himself in his lab as the whispers of the Dark God slowly drove him insane. When Manastill finally emerged from his lab he had become cold and calculating, the once gifted mage was now a servant to the Dark God. Feigning the excuse to pay his respects to his family Manastill took his apprentice, Francus Pestle, to Darrowshire. His first step as Yogg Sarons servant was to sever any ties with his past, and silently in the ruins of his old home Manastill denounced his old self and proclaimed himself The Souldealer.
When the Scourge attacked Dalaran, Manastill kept up appearances and defended the city. When Dalaran was destroyed, Sesil calculated a plan so that would allow him to travel to Northrend. Claiming that his studies of the rock samples had found him a metal that could withstand any damage, he proposed an expedition to collect ore that would help with the reconstruction of Dalaran. However the request was not fully authorised, an expedition of such importance required signatures from three archmagi. Sesil became desperate, only having two signatures he forged the third, quickly gathered the required resources and made sail to Northrend before the Kirin Tor would notice.
With Pestle and several scientists and miners, Sesil travelled to the Storm Peaks. While the excavators searched for the ore, Sesil finally opened himself to the Dark Gods full influence, absorbing his will and knowledge and surrendered his soul in return for power. However Pestle and the miners managed to gather saronite ore and through it Yogg Saron attempted to corrupt more souls. The process resulted in the excavators becoming suspicious, paticulary Pestle. Pestle challenged Manastill and the pair duelled. Sesil defeated his apprentice easily by throwing a fireball through his chest, Manastill then proceeded in killing each member of the expedition.
The Kirin Tor soon learnt of the illegal excavation and ordered the arrest of Manastill and Pestle. Feeling that nobody knew Sesil's skills better, DeBreton offered to track him down. Nelson quickly tracked Manastill and demanded that he should surrender but Manastill refused. The pair duelled each other in the snowy wastes of Northrend, Nelson eventually overcame his former friend and brought him back to Dalaran to stand trial. Sesil was found guilty of misconduct but not of murder as the court believed Sesil's story that the excavation was killed by Scourge and not him. As a result Manastill was banished from Dalaran and not executed.
Manastill soon returned to Northrend where he furthered his knowledge of the dark arts including necromancy. He was able to resurrect Pestle and force him to surrender his soul to the Dark God. Using his illusion techniques, Manastill gave the impression that Pestle was still alive. Using his new puppet, Sesil sent Pestle to gather what information he could from the remnants of the Silver Hand about a supposed weapon forged by the Kirin Tor. Sesil however needed information from Dalaran itself and coincidently the person he least likely thought would be asking for help contacted him. Nelson DeBreton.
DeBreton needed Sesil's help in saving his friend Avlee from possesion of a spirit from the Old Gods. Knowing that he could manipulate Nelson into aiding him, Sesil formulated a plan that would ensure he would find the Kirin Tor weapon, a staff that designed to control anything, even Scourge. However Nelson's friends within the Sanctum Eternal helped the professor finally hunt down Manastill to Darrowshire where he was decapitated within his old home.
Knowing that Sesil was a powerful Necromancer, Nelson had to seperate his soul from his body incase he was ever ressurected. Nelson stored Sesil's soul within a ring and acted as his keeper while Ungrod, a death knight of the Sanctum, acted as the guardian of Sesil's body. Sesil however had gathered knowledge from Yogg Saron and was able to force his will upon others, even within his ring prison. Twisted into insanity by his death, Sesil sought to cause Nelson as much pain as possible, he did this by almost fully corrupting Nelson's best friend, Kalandris . Eventually however it was Kalandris herself who managed to destroy Sesil's soul, almost dooming herself to oblivion. But the seeds of corruption could not be fully removed, Kalandris had grown to care for Sesil and almost missed him, so she stole his corpse from Ungrod. Taking his body to Trisfal Glades, Kalandris performed the ritual to bring Sesil back to undeath.
