Appearance and Personality
- Age: 120
- Height: 5 ft
- Weight: 175 lbs
Athanier is the average height and weight for a Blood Elf. His hair is white and hangs on the shoulders. He sports no facial hair. Unlike most Blood Elves Athanier isn't to bothered about the Sin'dorei joining the Horde. He does not measure respect by one's race, but rather by one's actions. As such he is mostly always polite and cordial to those he meets.
History
Athanier's grand-father was a great sailor and navigator among the Quel'dorei. His skills were invaluable in the exodus from Kalimdor. When the High Elves first entered Quel'Thalas, Athanier's grand-father knew his heart rested with the sea so he settled down and founded Sunsail Anchorage. Fast forward a few thousand years and Athanier is born.
Though always interested in the ways of sailing like his father and grandfather before him, Athanier chose to forsake that path and become a Mage, like his mother. Athanier was taught to become an Arcanist and master his heritage. Besides helping his father build Elven Destroyers, he played no major part in the Second War. His mother left for awhile to help Dalaran and protect Quel'Thalas borders, but she returned safely soon after.
When the Third War came Athanier and his family took shelter upon their personal vessel and set out to sea with as many people as they could carry. They could see the flames from their burning capital from the water. When they came ashore the land was quiet and lifeless. They led the band of Elves until they joined up with Kael'thas. All three of the Sunsails eagerly took on the name of Blood Elf in honor of their fallen kin. However, both Athanier and his father were suspicious of their Prince Kael'Thas. Athanier's mother was not, and she scolded her husband and son. When Kael'Thas left with a promise to return Athanier's mother went with him. Athanier has not heard word from her since.
By the time Athanier finally set out to make a difference in the world Kael'thas had betrayed his people and raided Silvermoon. Athanier was shocked and hurt, but most of all worried where his mother had ended up.
While out aiding the Blood Elves and their new allies the Forsaken, Sunsail Anchorage was over run by Wretched and Athanier's father was forced to flee. Luckily, Athanier's father was able to save their ship and has become a boon to the [[Shattered Sun Offensive[[ naval efforts. Under the somewhat lenient tutelage of Master Ligiea, Athanier is becoming a brilliant Arcanist and a hero among the Horde of Lordaeron.
Billy
Those who meet Athanier are usually a little disgusted at the fact that he carries a skull with him. The skull, named "Billy", is always with Athanier. Athanier will often enter into arguments with the skull, what they are about no none knows. The origins of how and when Athanier "met" Billy are unknown to any but Athanier himself as, whenever confronted with the question the Billy's origins, Athanier will let Billy narrate the tale while he sits back and laughs at certain "hilarious" parts. Many speculate that Athanier has adopted the skull as a substitute for his many lonely years of Mage training and the departure of both his parents for Athanier believes that Billy is an actual person, though his race has never been discerned. However, no one can deny the fact that there is something definitely odd about the skull as strange phenomena happen whenever it is around. It was once revealed by Athanier that Billy had lost an eye to a Ghoul and that he wears a silly eye-patch to which Billy "replies" that he had started the eye-patch trend.
