==Early Life==
===Origins===
John was born to an officer in the Gilnean military and the daughter of a wealthy merchant. His first few years of life were fairly uneventful, and he enjoyed the fairly luxurious life to be expected of a member of Gilneas' emerging middle class. The Second War soon began, though the young John and his mother were shielded from the conflict, staying in their residence in western Gilneas. 
Of course, Gregor Cadwell, John's father, would soon be sent off to protect Gilneas at the Orcish Hordes advanced further north. Gregor's career was successful; he lead his men to several victories, and was reputed with saving the son of an influential nobleman. Having achieved several promotions and rewards for his efforts in the war, Gregor peacefully retired once the orcs were sent back to Draenor and interned. He fought alongside the Alliance and admired them; he was personally opposed to the construction of the Greymane Wall, albeit not enough for him to forsake his King. 
With the accumulation of his salary and a generous payment from the nobleman's father, Gregor purchased some ripe farming land in southwestern Gilneas. While he made frequent use of the musket and cannon during the war, Gregor did not improve of the industrial city folks' lives, and preferred a more pastoral life for his family.
After establishing a plantation acquiring several dozen workers, Gregor moved his family to his estate. John was not the only child for long. Soon, he three younger siblings: two sisters and a brother. Gregor's business proved to be lucrative when combined with the connections of his wife's father, and the family came to be quite wealthy.
===Footsteps===
Wishing for his son to fight for Gilneas as well, John was sent to receive a military education once he was of age.
