Syldéon

==Physical Traits==
Dar'Therim has a stern face and he looks like he's been around for a while. He is in good shape, more sinewy than actually buff. His movements are very smooth and calculated and he has very fast reflexes. He has dark green eyes that shine somewhat less than those of most Blood Elves. He rarely laughs, but often smirks.
When he is on assignment, or in unfriendly territory, he wears dark leather armor and a mask over his face to hide his identity. He also makes his voice sound more sly than usual. Not hiding the fact that he is a rogue, his quick eyes dart about his surroundings often. When dressed in his dark leather armor he goes by the codename Swiftblade.
When not on assignment and just taking it easy, he wears more casual clothes to blend in. This is most often the case in Silvermoon City, where he is known as the exceptional jewelcrafter Syldéon Dar'Therim. People who recognize him from his now ruined jewelcrafting shop would probably only know him by his last name "Dar'Therim". He has a tendancy to glance about himself very often, taking mental notes of everything and everyone, especially taking note of guards and other officials. To an observant person, these things might indicate that he is a rogue.
==Background==
A very skilled jewelcrafter and enchanter, Syldéon ran a jewelry shop for over a thousand years and was possibly the best jewelcrafter in Silvermoon City. Some 900 years ago, he fell in love with a high elven priestess of great power. They were married for hundreds of years, but never had any children.His wife died in the Scourge invasion.
Syldéon's home and work were located in what is now the ruined part of Silvermoon City, right on the dead scar. He survived, but only with the clothes on his back. After the change to Blood Elves and learning to deal with the terrible hunger for mana, Syldéon could not find work as a jewelcrafter and only minimal work as an enchanter. The Blood Elves were more concerned with rebuilding than with fancy trinkets. In desperation, he plied his nimble fingers to "other kinds of work". He became a thief, stealing to survive.
After uncovering a plot of espionage and more betrayal by the Alliance, he was given the task to "silence" an Alliance infiltrator. He performed the assassination and discovered that he felt very little for the taking of a life. Later, he disposed of a Night Elf spy and again, felt nothing for her death. After that he started down the path of becoming a professional assassin and has become quite skilled.
==Personality==
For a while, Syldéon did not possess any morality over his actions and only cared about himself. He would help others only if it benefitted him to do so and the same went for being polite.
However, this mentality got him in a lot of trouble and he came to realize that he needed allies. In order to get these allies, he played nice and in so doing, soon found himself connecting with a few individuals. These friendships sparked a sense of care for others that he had not felt in a good many years.
He holds little to no faith in the Light and does not respect authority other than his own. People he perceives as a threat trying to assert authority over him will quickly make an enemy. Anyone else will simply be a nuisance and a target of mockery.
He does not remember random people's names or faces very well, but he does remember every piece of jewelry he has ever crafted. Mention a piece of jewelry that he has made and he knows every detail surrounding that piece.
Syldéon has two personas, or two faces that he shows the world. Dar'Therim the jewelcrafter and Swiftblade the assassin.
===Swiftblade===
"Swiftblade" is Syldéon's true personality, the person that past experiences have made him. He dresses in dark leather armor and always wears a mask over his face to hide his identity. He is a thief, a murderer and without remorse. He embodies all the information given above about Syldéon's personality.
===Dar'Therim===
Syldéon Dar'Therim, most often known only by his last name "Dar'Therim", is Syldéon's public identity. It is also who he used to be, roughly 600 years ago. He wears casual clothes and shows his face freely, as most people would only recognize him as the highly skilled jewelcrafter Dar'Therim. He hides his sinister nature, acting polite and well mannered for the most part, but just beneath the calm surface dwells a killer.
He plays the part of his former self to have some place to hide when "Swiftblade" becomes too wanted by authorities. As well, jewelcrafting is still his first and foremost profession.
==Current Status==
Swiftblade is currently doing freelance work in Northrend.
He spends his downtime as Dar'Therim in Silvermoon City, rebuilding his jewelcrafting business. He is usually polite, if a bit curt at time.
==Criminal Activities==
While Dar'Therim is a well respected jewelcrafter in Silvermoon City, his alter ego Swiftblade is guilty of murder, theft, smuggling and fraud. He is also very fond of threatening people. However, to date he has never been caught. Barely anyone knows that Swiftblade and Dar'Therim are one and the same.
