| − | '''Highlord Extractum Zeliek''' is the current Paladin-General of Stormwind. He is a veteran of all three major wars to date on Azeroth and is either 65 or 66 years of age, originally a member of the House of Nobles of [[Lordaeron]] before it's demise and take over. His continued activity in service of the Alliance has been marked in several major conflicts in [[Outland]] and [[Northrend]], being a veteran of both the Wrath Gate and [[Ulduar]] to name but a couple. He's usually found in the [[Cathedral of Light]] outwith military activity and Alliance representation. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Before the year of the King== |
||
| − | |||
| − | (Following the unofficial timeline) Born in the year -33, Extractum lived a good life, the son of a promising nobleman of [[Lordaeron]] with his brother. Slatwart followers of the [[light]], his family were wealthy land ownerswho were always charitable and compassionate to thier serfs and those living on thier lands and villages. When Extractum was 20, his father dies in the year -13, he inherited the property and title of his father and he felt at the time that he did not deserve such a title or territories and felt he was unable to be a noble effectively. Despite this, he pressed on and followed his Father's motto of ''"Eternal Vigilance."'' He soon became embroiled in the political affairs of the Kingdom of Lordaeron as one of the representatives in the governing system. He became knwown to be both leveled headed and intelligent beyond his years, and by the year -8, he had become both beloved by his poeples and close to the [[House of Menethil]], entailing a close freindship with King Terenas II and an almost uncle like staus with the young [[Prince Arthas]]. These were to be the only years of peace Extractum would ever see. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==The First War== |
||
| − | |||
| − | In the year 0 (Year of the King), The [[Horde]] of [[Draenor]], led by [[Gul'dan]], came forth from the [[Dark Portal]] and mounted an assault on the [[City of Stormwind]]. Far to the North at this time, he only heard rumour and tail of the barabaric orcs slaughtering innocent people. Such tails chilled Extractum to the bone. It wasn't until after the succesful defence of the city of Stormwind that it was eventually destroyed by the Orcish Horde. The reality of the impending disaster struck Extractum as he opened up the gates of his lands to [[Human]] refugees coming from the Kingdom of Stormwind to the South, it was then that the penny dropped. He took up arms as a warrior taking a small militia of men from his lands to help the refugees flooding from the South. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Extractum was present in his balcony in the Lordaeronian throne room when the Lion of Azeroth, [[Anduin Lothar]] came in the year 5. He heard his speech which called for the armies of the Human Kingdoms to come together as one race and to fend off this threat of alien attack from the Dark Portal. He instantly strode to King Terenas side and gave him a short explanation as to why this was an important venture for his Kingdom. Trusting his 38 year old friend's advice as a fortification of his own initial optimism, Menethil nodded his head and Lordaeron became the base for the [[Alliance of Lordaeron]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==The Second war== |
||
| − | |||
| − | The years of the Second War, were the longest of Extractum's life. He became a [[Paladin]] at the end of the First War, joining the [[Knights of the Silver Hand]], under the direct command of [[Uther the Lightbringer]] at the age of 39. He fought in countless battles, pushing the Orcish Horde back meter by meter until Warchief [[Blackhand]] was in the continent of Azeroth once again. Eventually, after gaining prestige for valour, courage and mercy in both the [[Alliance of Lordaeron]] and the Silver Hand, the war was wan, but not at the cost of his hero, [[Anduin Lothar]] who was slain at the base of Blackrock Mountain by Warcheif Blackhand. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==After the Second War== |
||
| − | |||
| − | After having victory over the Horde in the Second War, Extractum settled back into the role of a nobleman, maintaining loyalty to both his Holy order and the monarchy of Lordaeron. Because of his strict addherance to the principles of the Light, his compassion led his thinking. He protestied vigorously against the encampent of the Orcs across Lordaeron, claiming that Humanity was becoming just as ruthless as the Horde once was. |
||
| − | |||
| − | He witnessed the rise of the [[New Horde]]. He would never admit it, but he was pleased when he saw Thrall become a strong and wise leader, confrming his thinking that Orcs weren't all evil, mindless creatures. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==The Third War== |
||
| − | |||
| − | With his affiliation with both Lordaeron and the Silver Hand, he was very very disturbed and concerned by the spread of the [[Plague of Undeath]] across his homelands. When he seen Andorhal had fallen due to corrupted grain supplies, he knew the situaton was going to go from bad to unfixablly terrible. Andorhal was the centre of both grain production and transportation, it fell first, but it had had enough grain deliveries from the city for surrounding cities like Brill and Stratholme to deduce diasterous results. The latter being both closest and largest in vicinity, he rushed with the Knights of the Silver Hand to Stratholme, where Arthas was already in command. He watched and was horrified as Arthas ordered he and his order to purge the city of unliving and alive inside. When [[Uther the Lightbringer]] refused Arthas such blatant slaughter, he disbanded the Knights of the Silver Hand. Extractum, now a high ranking commander of his Holy order, turned and with his superior Uther, rode away from the city, leaving the blood on Arthas' hands. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Arthas' command couldn't break the spirit of the Knights and Extractum reported the Prince's odd and worryingly violent behaviour to King Terenas. The matter was dusted over, the King reluctant to believe the jabberings of the 58 year old Veteran. However, Extractum new that this would not be forgotten so easilly. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Sure enough, months later when the Prince returned triumphant from Northrend with his two trusted lietuenants Marwynn and Falric the crowds threw petals down upon him, hailing his return. Extractum stood amongst the crowds that towered over Arthas' in a hooded cloak, although he loved the man before him like a son he couldn't deny a change had occured in him. He saw he no longer wielded [[Light's Vengeance]] the Holy warhammer gifted to Arthas by [[Archbishop Alonsus Faol]], in it's place he held a glowing blue weapon from which Extractum could sesne evil. Hours later, it became apparent that by some "accident" Extractum's friend, King Terenas Menethil II had died, but deep down he knew that it was down to Arthas' newly found malevolence. |
||
| − | |||
| − | During this war, another sorrow befell Extractum, with the death of his younger brother during a Silver Hand scouting party at the hands of the newly rising scourge. This caused Extractum to mourn for 3 months continuously before he could console himself with the fact his brother's spirit was with the Light. |
||
| − | |||
| − | After the Kingdom fell from plague, the loss of it's ruler and the splintering of the Alliance before all that, Lordaeron was brought to it's knees. Many had died and many stayed in the now darkened lands. Extractum travelled South, assuming a position in Stormwind given to him by the House of Wrynn. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Before Renewed Conflict== |
||
| − | |||
| − | Extractum desperatly held onto the now severly diminished groups and clumps of Paladins that once made up the Knights of the Silver Hand. He tryed desperately to hold them all together, with some degree of success. Notable Paladin such as Duthorian Rall, Grayson Shadowbreaker and many dwarven Paladin in [[Ironforge]] gave thier continued support to the Order. For a while however, he focused on his duties to the new Kingdom to which he belonged. He became a great teacher in the [[Cathedral of Light]] and spent a lot of his time in the [[Royal Library]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | After the last of Lordaeron's defunct landowning barons had died away, King varian Wrynn proclaimed Extractum the ''""Steward of Lordaeron.""'' Another title Extractum felt he could not fulfill was given to him, but he was not going to turn away such an honour, as he felt realistically that there was no one left with as much patriotism as he who could revitalise the people of his broken continent. Along with this honour, he was given the rank of Knight-Champion and the new title of Highlord. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==World of Warcraft== |
||
| − | |||
| − | Since such times, Extractum has participated in the majority of Alliance military action. He has lead many battalions into battle and has become known for his part in battles such as the Assault on Blackwing Lair and the battle of Zul'Gurub in Stranglethorn Vale. His most prominent victory was when he assisted the Argent Dawn in the Eastern Plaguelands both entering the floating necropolis of [[Naxxramas]] and commanind the Alliance forces that took part in the attack. It was also within the necropolis that he was reintroduced to his brother, Sir Zeliek, who had been risen as one of the Four Horseman by Kel'thuzad. Extractum was elated with joy to see his brother was okay, although now unliving and serving the Scourge, it was not willingly, he had retained his sanity through sheer strength of will and faith. Extractum had never been more proud to be a Zeliek than when he saw his brother continue to manipulate Holy magics even in undeath. He proceeded to send his borhter's spirit on to the Light for good, this time being able to say his final goodbye like he never could during the Plague of Undeath. He was also the man who landed the final blow upon [[Kel'thuzad]], claiming victory in the name of the Light and the Allaince. |
||
| − | |||
| − | For his skill in battle and strategy, and no doubt his vast wealth of experience, at the age of 63 we was proclaimed a Champion of the Alliance and the Paladin-General of Stormwind, making him the principle commander of Paladin forces in Stormwind (and unoffically the entire Alliance due to even prominent dwarf Paladins from Ironforge taking orders from him through respect.) |
||
| − | |||
| − | {{Bc-section}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | Following his successes in Azeroth, he was once again called to arms to aid his Argent Dawn allies in the Blasted Lands in the Battle for the Dark Portal. The battle reminded him of beating back Warchief Blackhand at the end of the Second War and with this memory, his fervour grew to ocne again, prove his worth as a Paladin and a commander. Extractum also showed great presence in Shattrath City, as a temporary advisor to the naaru [[A'dal]] in matters in Outland and the eventual tactical meetings concerning the eventual assault upon his fortress and death of Illidan Stormrage, where he was involved in the organisation of Alliance forces. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Upon returning to Stormwind, another enemy defetaed, Extractum thoguth he could lay down his weapon and retire from millitary work but with the undead assault upon the city of Stormwind by the Scourge, memories flooded back of his homelands to the North. He refused to allow the Scourge to consume another home and another generation of Humanity. With this rage pent up Extractum's Light powers became immensly powerful in the defence of the City and at one point, he killed a Frostwyrm with a single exorcism. |
||
| − | |||
| − | He knew that Northrend was his next destination. |
||
| − | |||
| − | {{wotlk-section}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | Upon arriving in the harsh Borean Thundra, Extractum helped defend the initial site and construction of [[Valiance Keep]] with his Holy forces. When this was completed to a respectable degree he ventured forth into the forgotten artic continent to aid the Alliance. After a breif spell in the [[Howling Fjord]] He assisted [[Highlord Bolvar Fordragon]] in preperation fro an attack on the back door of Icecrown Citadel, the new throne of his old monarch, prince Arthas. When the plague machines were activated and the Red Dragon Flight breathed life upon the site extractum was lucky enough to survive because he had been charged by Fordragon to command the Gryphon riders. Tis defeat left a bitter taste in Extractum's mouth... glimpsing the now fully evil Arthas he knew he needed to cleanse his soul. |
||
| − | |||
| − | During his travels in Dragonblight Extractum came across a cavern defended heavilly by the [[Scarlet Onslaught]], upon entering he found an alter with a missing weapon. Extractum found, disgarded in a pile of snow [[Light's Vengeance]], the former weapon of Arthas Menethil. Extractum disgarded his old mace and picked up the sacred Warhammer, blessed by Archbishop Faol himself so many years ago. Extractum vowed to use this weapon in honour of all that was once Lordaeron and what he wished to make it again. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Extractum was already an Argent Champion, having belonged to the organisation for a brief time in it's earliest years, but he now came to the Argent Tournament Grounds as a Champion of Stormwind and an ambassador for the Alliance. During this time, he operated mainly from the airship [[The Skybreaker]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | After he was chosen to be one of the few to attack the Lich King's frozen fortress, he and an elite squad of Alliance soldiers invaded the sanctum of the Lich king and slowly made their way through his ranks of undead. After killing many undead monstrosities, they finally reached the top of the Frozen Throne, upon it, sat Prince Arthas. He was now mostly unrecognisable beneath his [[Plate of the Damned]] and the crown of the Scourge the [[Helm of Domination]], but Extractum knew it was Arthas and that was all he needed to know. The battle was long and hard, but the Alliance attackers prevailed. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Upon his death, the broken Arthas was craideled in the hands of his Father's ghost. Extractum was said to have felt not great happiness but great sorrow. As Arthas lay there dead, he looked just as he had so many years ago as a young child in the gardens of [[Capital City]] in Lordaeron. These events gave Extractum nothing but anguish. He returned to Stormwind and is once again found in the Cathedral or around about [[Stormwind Keep]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Equipment== |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[Light's Vengeance]] has been Extractum's weapon of choice since it's discovery in Norhtrend, it is a sacred warhammer, blessed by Archbishop Alonsus Faol and originally given to Arthas Menethil at the age of 19 upon his inition itnto the Knights of the Silver hand. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Extractum wears a set of Grand Marshal's armour which was blessed by A'dal the naaru, giving it increased strength and granting Extractum a greater degree of Holy magic manipulation. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Notes== |
||
| − | [[Image: Extractum_and_rasputin.JPG|thumb|Extractum oversee's construstion at [[Valiance Keep]] upon Rasputin]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | Extractum means exorcism in Latin. |
||
| − | |||
| − | This is my in game character and I love him. |
||
| − | |||
| − | On his adventures in Northrend he made freinds and formed a close bond with a [[Red-Proto Drake]], which he named ''Rasputin,'' Rasputin is now his pet and mount. |
||
| − | |||
| − | He has lived on 2 seperate servers: Wildhammer (EU) and Azuremyst (EU). The latter is his current realm of occupation. |
