Beginnings
Elestan Shar'adore (Thalassian: "Blessed with Knowledge") was born to an ancient noble family that dates it's founding back to the time of the Kal'dorei Empire before the Sundering. By the time of his birth, this branch of the supposedly storied family had fallen into a meager shadow of it's former reputation. His father, a low-ranking magister of significant ambition, attempted to regain some of that lost glory, and used what fortunes they still possessed in unsuccessful efforts to reinvigorate his house's social standing, all the while grooming his son to inherit his house titles and positions within the Magisters.
In spite of his steady progress in training in the arcane, the son was not the father, and as he began to feel stifled under his father's attempts to control his life, Elestan sought escape. Before his 300th year, he joined the Thalassian Army, leveraging what arcane skills he had to be granted a position among it's ranks. This act of rebellion would strain his relationship with his father from then on.
The Knight-Champion has gone through much recently. Old demons had come back to haunt him in the wake of the Dragon Isles' unveiling, possessing his hand and compelling it to commit injuries toward himself and others. Seeking healing, he eventually found it when he traveled to the realm of Khaz Algar alongside the Alliance-Horde Expedition. There, in the light-filled caverns of Hallowfall, he and others fought against a resurgent foe, The Apophan, the instigator of his arm's corruption, and excised the source of his body.
Now, fully healed, he now seeks to take on further responsibilities within the Hand. Taking up the call of the Selection, he's accepted the burden of claiming the Rune of the House of Salvation, and now looks out to see who among the Hand cand embody and fulfill the Promise of the stories House.
