RP Hooks

  • Librarian: Theris worked as an assistant librarian in Stormwind's royal library before he died.
  • Knight of the Ebon Blade: He's dead.
  • Watcher of Raven Hill: The Lysander family abandoned Raven Hill when it was destroyed, but property is property. After his death, Theris returned to his ancestral family home to protect the Duskwood region.

Appearance

Five feet, nine inches. Black hair, straight and rather short, a little bit longer in the front than in the back, parted down the center. In death, very pale, but he might stand a chance at passing as one of the living if not for his eyes, which glow blue.

Personality

Disciplined ◆ Supportive ◆ Introspective ◆ Weak

From his father, Theris inherited intelligence, discipline, willpower… but not an ounce of the ruthlessness for which Kieran Lysander is so renowned for. From his mother, Renna, Theris inherited patience, kindness, an appreciation for beautiful things, a great love of books, and, unfortunately, her heart condition. That became abruptly less relevant after his death, and has enabled him to be far more physically active than he ever was in life.

Theris is a soft-spoken and serious young man with a very dry sense of humor. He is quiet, polite, and has a tendency to fade into the background if there are others in the room. When possible, he prefers not to be noticed.

History

BIRTHDAY: OCTOBER 26th, YEAR -5 ADP

Even before Theris was born, there were high expectations of him. Second son of tactician Kieran Lysander, a man considered to have one of the greatest strategic minds in history, Theris - from the moment he was born - was expected to follow in his father's and brother's footsteps one day.

Theris never joined the military, unlike his elder brother, Kyris. Instead, he spent as much time as he could with his mother, one of Stormwind's royal librarians.

He died in the Plaguelands, mere days before the Battle of Light's Hope, and was brought back as a Death Knight.

Rather than travel to Northrend with the rest of the Ebon Blade, Theris took up a post in Duskwood, south of Darkshire, where he fought the worgen and undead in the area.

When the new worgen came from Gilneas, Theris moved to Raven Hill instead, where he now coordinates with the Gilneans working on trapping and curing the feral worgen.

Relationships

Ally
Theris' little sister. He remembers her.
Roper
One of his sister's friends from work. Theris knew him as 'Tibault' in life, but has realized that he never truly knew the man at all. He owes Roper for his continued existence.
Syarra
Another death knight who helped save him. Theris feels that he owes her a debt.
