=History=
Jaimes Mordent is the eldest child of Lord Oberton and Archmage Elena Mordent of Dalaran. Even at an early age, Jaimes showed an affinity to his mother's vocation of magical study. Studious and obedient, the young Jaimes spent a his formative years following Elena around, watching with the big, round eyes of youth.
Against the norms of magical education, Elena herself took Jaimes as a apprentice formally when he reached the age of 13. It is unclear whether the youth had already begun to favor darker arts, but it seems a possibility, given his mother's protection. For 7 years, his private education continued, shrouded from the rest of Dalaran, and even his own family. But before he could prove himself to the Council--or flee to practice his own brand of the arcane--the Scourge came.
In the defense of his home city, Jaimes may have called upon, or been the target of, energies most baleful. Before this time, the young man's hair was as black as his mother's--but afterwards, it had been drained of color to the roots, and his physique and skin were that of one 15 years older.
Coming to Stormwind with his surviving family, Jaimes thought fit to bestow upon himself a mage-name, an older, vanishing tradition among the Archmages. He began calling himself Hygelakus, likely after an elven magister, Hygelak Xilonodel, that frequently visited the city in the times before the 3rd war. The youth stopped short of calling himself an Archmage of Dalaran, however--once he began to truly master the demonic arts, he took another title, that of Arcanist.
Hygelakus favors rich clothing, and carries a sword, the weapon most favored by his house and the one that brought his father, Lord Oberton, to power. He frequently argues at Stormwind that the crown gives too much credence to the words of those on the Paths of the Holy Light, and not enough to those who serve the Grand Alliance with dark magic. He has made a name for himself in Stormwind as an accomplished diplomat, and barrister--fitting, for his specialization in summoning and binding demons and demonic energies.
