 **Coat of Arms**

Roth'elon Frostlance is a Spellblade, and acquired the title of baron after being gifted the Barony of Frostlance from Dalekstra Locksey. Formerly a Corporal of the Silver Vanguard, he now serves within the Kingdom of Gilneas. He has a keen interest in arcane research as well as gnomish engineering, the latter of which he keeps firmly to himself. Though he is long-lived, he looks to merely be in his early thirties. His long integration with the Kingdom of Stormwind has caused his outward demeanor to become fairly human - carefree and friendly, with little need to reveal more of himself than he must.

## Personality & Beliefs

Roth'elon's outward beliefs are fluid - he is not above putting on a mask of indifference or even agreement to any topic, despite his true feelings. Being both long lived and of intellectual mind, his beliefs have changed and grown for so long that most of his opinions have dulled to indifference. Still, there are some that have only reinforced with time - his insistence that words are only meant to deceive, especially when not lined up with actions, is one of them (but despite this negative connotation, he understands that deception is sometimes appropriate and even necessary - even when someone is using it against him). His belief that a peaceful world is both a noble goal and unobtainable, while sounding pointless together, is a simple guideline for how nations should proceed forward. He also believes that truth can be subjective or even unnecessary - if people believe a lie but it brings them prosperity, and there is no detriment, why should the lie be cast out? These beliefs are often in stark contrast to human culture, which values truth, individuality, and honesty.

Despite this, he is almost always honorable - but not for the reasons most choose to be. Similar his beliefs to striving for a peaceful world, a world where everyone acts honorably is simply a better one that should be constantly striven for, regardless of attainability - and that starts from within, regardless of personal benefit.

## Description

Roth'elon is larger and taller than most elves, which he has always been since birth. Icy white hair, blue eyes, and pale skin show his affinity to frost. His features are elegant, his jaw wide. Runic scars cover his torso, a remnant of old magics and experiments from centuries ago, which are often neither seen nor spoken of. If pressed, he simply would not find them interesting enough to explain.

## Biography

Roth'elon was born decades before the First War. His large size and good acumen sense, as well as family tradition, put him on strict rails for Spellbreaker training - and his young group's master was tough on them, leading them to spend several more decades on combat training than was standard. After decades of standard combat training and patrols, he and the rest of his company began their mage training, which shut them into an almost isolated state of constant study. Two decades later, as a Spellbreaker initiate, he participated in dozens more combat patrols. At this time, he had two brothers from different companies on the same path, with his sisters taking up various other paths.

He was not much involved during the First War, being called to a standing post in Dalaran, and the time was spent dealing with the boring day-to-day activities of dealing with refugees, politics, and logistical crisis that come with a major war and emerging threat. He continued to become more used to human culture, and the casual mask he wore that eventually became his outward personality developed during this time. Being around such a short-lived race was a much different perspective, and he learned to simply enjoy time while he had it.

During the Second War, however, he was much more involved. Since this war also touched on Quel'danas specifically, he was involved in direct combat several times - through a combination of gallant actions and the deaths of key officers, he received a battlefield commission of Lieutenant during this time, which he later requested be reversed once the war was over. This was rejected, but he was never promoted further, and remained as embedded with the rank-and-file as he could. He learned of the deaths of both his brothers during this war several weeks after they occurred, and by mail. The guilt this placed on him led him to hate being in a (relatively) comfortable position of leadership, and he often slept in the same tent as his enlisted men.

During the Third War, he fought with the garrison of Silvermoon when it fell, and ensured both his mother and his sisters were able to escape when it happened. A large portion of his own company was also able to survive this event, which earned him the whispers of cowardice for prioritizing their safety. Nonetheless, it did not matter - the Spellbreakers were no more. And with the destruction of the Sunwell, he would now age as others do.

After this, he avoided military service. He took some time helping the Alliance as a whole from the civilian side - eventually falling on the role of caravan guard, which suited him well for years. While being further embedded in humanity, he grew to miss his comrades - and eventually joined the Silver Vanguard. He joined their Infantry company and immediately placed himself in the rank-and-file, feeling at home again.

Several Vanguard campaigns later, he eventually rose to the rank of Corporal, and began to branch out back into magical studies. He firmly kept himself amongst the infantry, and volunteered for watch patrols whenever he is able - a remnant of that lingering guilt he longs to pay for.

## Relationships
