Syntharion Sunfury was a high elf paladin long ago. Born in the time of peace within the world at large; a world not yet truly inhabited with humans or orcs - the largest empire belonging to the trolls, Syntharion spent his youth growing up during the period shortly after the settling of Eversong. In the world at large, he was born about 2000 years after the founding of Quel'thalas - amid the wake of the blood elf and human war with the Amani. His formative years were spent dealing with the territorial disputes with the Amani trolls that ventured from Zul'Gurub. His mentors trained him from an early age to master the power of Belore, and in time and with experience at the hands of the trolls, he became a promising force of retribution. his training culminating in his roll on the front lines of the trolls last ditched efforts to retake Silvermoon from the Quel'Dorei. Following his devotion to his people and his extraordinary martial, he was charged with the protection of the Quel’dorei way of life; made into a royal guard of Silvermoon City, placed in the citadel to watch over and help protect King Anasterian Sunstrider But with the Third War came calamity for the high elves, and the paladin did not escape the cruelty and disaster that befell Silvermoon. Arthas's infamous march on the capital ended in catastrophe for much of the Sunfury family, by blood and by bond; both his mentor and supreme commander Sylvanas Sunstrider and his charge, Anasterian Sunstrider, were killed in the wake of the prince of Lordearon's genocidal campaign of conquest. This had two despairing effects on the elf. First, as a paladin of many years, Syntharion’s faith of so many years had been shaken to its foundation, but watching the destruction of his people and his homeland threw him further into a crisis of faith. He became disparaged, thinking the light had forsaken him and his people; he was not alone in this belief, many of the survivors of Silvermoon’s destruction echoing his thoughts... His despair was short lived. Like so many others, Syntharion fell to the Scourge's conquest. But in being killed with his family, Sunfury was sentenced to a fate worse than death; risen again as a death knight by Arthas, the Lich King himself.
