==Biography==
 
As a child, Med'an was handed over by Garona — for his safety from herself — to the undead sorcerer [[Meryl Felstorm]], who served as his guardian until his young adulthood. Prophesied to be the "savior of [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]]," an undead mage named [[Stasia Fallshadow]] tracked him down and launched a failed attempt to abduct the young [[Racial terminology#Half-breed|half-breed]]. Although Stasia died in her attempts to capture the boy, her employer — the [[Twilight's Hammer clan]], still under the command of ogre [[Cho'gall]] — was eager to capture the boy in order to sacrifice him to resurrect their master, the [[Old God]] [[C'Thun]].
 
 
Upon meeting [[Aegwynn]], Meryl noted a striking resemblance between the former Guardian and the boy, becoming certain that Medivh is the boy's father. Aegwynn herself was startled, immediately being reminded of her son when she saw Med'an's face for the first time. She also noted that like Medivh, Med'an was a "beacon of power."
 
 
Because of Med'an's mixed ancestry, he possessed power in both the [[mage|arcane arts]] and [[shaman|shamanism]]. He has also expressed interest in acquiring knowledge in [[light|holy magic]], and began tutelage under his uncle, the draenei vindicator [[Maraad]].<ref name=gathering>''[[The Gathering]]''</ref> The reborn [[New Council of Tirisfal|Council of Tirisfal]] saw this combination of magical talents as an asset, which made Med'an an excellent contestant for the vacant spot of Guardian. Furthermore, his mixed heritage guaranteed that the boy would not be assumed biased in the everlasting strife between [[Horde]] and [[Alliance]].
 
 
As the New Council was formed, Med'an was summoned to [[Karazhan]] by an avatar of Medivh. The avatar helped him harness the arcane powers inherited from his father, and noted that it was his birthright to do with them as he pleases; a choice Medivh never had when he was passed the same power from his mother. Encouraged by his father to take up the duties of the Guardian of Tirisfal, Med'an assumed this post and committed the council to defeating Cho'gall.<ref name=hardchoices/>
 
 
In [[Ahn'Qiraj]], Garona recovered the [[Base of Atiesh]] from the corpse of C'Thun, and Med'an used it to restore the [[Atiesh, Greatstaff of the Guardian|legendary staff]]. With the powers bestowed upon him by the New Council, and the sacrifice of his grandmother, Med'an was able to defeat Cho'gall by collapsing the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj on top of him.<ref name=armageddon>''[[Armageddon (comic)|Armageddon]]''</ref.
 
 
Along with [[Valeera Sanguinar]], Aegwynn, and Garona, Med'an is also amongst the select few who knows of Meryl's demonic possession by the dreadlord [[Kathra'Natir]].
