Aelan Bloodcleave

Aelan is a former High Elf/Blood elf. He faced the Lich King in battle, after leading a group of elven warriors into certain death at Ebon Hold. Aelan was killed, only raised to suffer even more, after sending most of the scourge undead back to their grave at Ebon Hold. Since he is raised straight after his death, then his organs still are functioning, the necromanic energies ain't exactly keeping his body alive, but they are keeping his organs alive, making the blood circulating as it should. Due to the necromanic energy that strengthen his organs, then he is still able to survive for many centuries, if not forever, until he is killed.
==Appearence==
Aelan is rather handsome for an so called undead. He have a athletic body, showing agile abilities despise his big armor, but he also do have bigger muscles than an usual elf. He got a sharp chin and a rather thin head form. His black hair often shines when exposed to the light of the sun, or the moon. His muscles are firm, all over the body, instead of soft. His chest, neck and arms reveals a lot of scars, due to the piercing blows that the scourge have put on him. He looks at people without a smile, sometimes studying them, and his eyes are always half closed, looking like he dont really care about much anylonger. Due to major changes in his body, then his genes also got changed. The necromanic energies within his body, manipulated his genes then that his hair turned from blond to black.
==Personality==
Aelans personality isn't an unusual one. He doesn't seem to care about most things, but acts kind towards people. He is low tempered and his anger and furiosity in battle, aswell as his merciless madness, makes him look like a cruel an uncivilised person. He ain't all cuddly and loving, but he shares the same emotions as any living person, those are just shadowed by his anger. He haven't forgotten the rituals and civilised ways of his people and therefor he still acts like one of them, a little atleast. His hatred for magisters have been lowered, as he doesn't really seem to care, he looks upon them as any other individual, to him they are nothing better, but nothing less either.
==Alignment==
Aelan is what some D&D roleplayers might call, chaotic good. Aelan uses the scourges merciless brutality against them and other enemies, aswell as his thought of fighting fire with fire. Even though he do show a little kindness, then he doesn't really mean it, its just his thought about his once so mighty people, that makes him act in a civilised way. He rather heartless, hard to hurt with simple words. He does aswell enjoy chaos and destruction, and would for all in world, bring it on his way when he gets the chance, no, he wouldn't try split up two lovers, that is just mean, that is not cruel, besides he wouldn't care about them at all. When he is furious, angry and when he is fighting, he shows his destructable and chaotic side.
==Relationship==
Aelan is still believed to be dead, therefor he ain't known by many people and have had no chance to develop a relationship to any person.
==Background==
=== Childhood and youth ===
Aelan lived a peaceful life. Aelan was born into a family of magisters, they were all great wizards and had a political influence on Quel'thalas. The Bloodcleave family were close friends of the human Family the Valen. Aelan did already as a child, befriended the young boy Merenil Valen. Merenil and Aelan spend almost all time together when the humans were visiting Quel'thalas, and since Aelan lacked the same knowledge and the consentration of being a mage, he instead turned to become a elven warrior. Aelan and Merenil forged a strong bond, they almost grew up together, and their skills with weapons improved. Aelans father wasn't happy about the friendship Aelan had with this human, either was he happy about Aelan becoming a warrior, he didn't want any of his family into the lowest part of the population. Aelans father decided to use his political influence, to banish the Valen family, just to keep his son away from Merenil. Aelan fast figured this out, and he walked up to his dad, in a political meeting and did something he never should have done, he disrespected a magister. Aelan told his dad how he took everything from her, how he kept him down just because he had other interests, that he hated the magisters and would curse them all if possible. His dad looked shocked, but furiously down at him, both embarresed by this disrespect but also mixed with sadness, but his anger took over and he clashed Aelan against the wall with his magic. Aelan fell to the ground, sitting there up against the wall, looking up at his dad with a mixed feeling of fear and anger. With his eyes filled with tears he raised up and ran away. As youth Aelan lived at the streets of Silvermoon City, he stole food and money to survive, even begged for it when he got the chance. A day he got into a fight with one of the guards, he pulled out a sword from one of the guards and got to show his skills with a sword. Aelan was pinned down in the end, but spared, as a great elven warrior decided to take him under his wing as his apprentice. Aelan accepted.
=== A warriors spirit ===
Years pass and Aelans skills improve. All the training have started to take shape and he clearly shows it. Aelan have become strong, both with and without a weapon. Though because of Aelans remaining hatred towards the magisters, he often got in trouble, which his master most of the time had influence enough to fix. Aelan was still rebellious, despise his age, he just couldn't take that it was the magisters who were the rightful political leaders, but his master luckily kept him back before he decided to do something stupid. As Aelans skills kept on getting better, his master seemed satisfyed with him. Aelan was given the task to lead an elite group of elven warriors who would aid the humans in their wars aswell as keeping the trolls back. One day Aelan was contacted by his long lost friend, Merenil Valen, who asked him to help him against scourge undead around Duskwood, Aelan accepted and took the elite group with him.
=== Returned to ruins ===
Aelan spend many years in duskwood, fighting the undead there alongside his old friend who have now become a paladin. When Aelan returned to Quel'thalas, only to find Silvermoon City in ruins, he kneeled in his own sadness of the sight, and let out a roar that surely could be heard all over the city. He found a surviving elf who told him what happened. Aelan grabbed his blade, and stabbed it into the heart of the surviver, madness have now came over him. He led his group away from the ruins, in a long search for the death knight Arthas. He met Kael'thas on his way, and spoke a little with him, getting the knowledge of the renaming, and training to absorb fel energy, aswell did his comrades.
=== The cold, the death, embrace of the undead ===
Aelan spend years with his comrades, in his desperate search for Arthas. He fought trolls, undead, and even horde members in his madness. A day Aelan was told that a necropolis were hanging over the Light Chapel in the plaguelands and that the Lich King was there aswell. Aelan did know about the great transform Arthas had turned to, and despise that fact he still led his group into the plagueland. Weeks of fighting against the scourge, and a little amount of his comrades have fallen, he finally reached the Necropolis. Aelan and his group used their dragonhawks to fly up to the necropolis, to fight the scourge and the Lich King. This did show to be a mere suicide mission, with only failures. Aelan did though, before his death, send a lot of the undead back to the graves where they belong, only to get killed by the Lich King. The Lich King, clearly amazed by the strength of this young elf, decided to raise Aelan as one of his champions.
==Involvement==
Aelan position himself as a champion, a hero in former life. He is still proud even though he died at Ebon Hold. He is a loner, watching his beloved, rebuilded city, Silvermoon.

==Personal notes==
*Aelan are often laid back, hiding that he is short tempered, which often can be a problem, when some people decide to tell him stuff they shouldn't.
*Aelan do have emotions and feels pain, love, anger, hate, sorrow, sadness just like any living creature, his nerves and brain aswell as his organs are still intact, so why shouldn't he be able to? Most of these emotions are just overshadowed by his anger.
*A fitting tune for Aelans laid back, short tempered, lonely but heroic personality would be the Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core Soundtrack: The price of freedom which can be found at this link
