Background
Malveron Bladesong was born and raised within the verdant green forests of the Hinterlands, at the Quel'danil Lodge. His parents were common folk; his mother an alchemist and his father a traveling merchant. Malveron spent most of his time in the forests between Aerie Peak and the lodge, where he frequently visited with the Wildhammer Dwarves.

Malveron was a reckless young elf, often getting himself into trouble. He had lost both both parents to forest trolls by the time he was a teenager and often felt more at home alone in the forests than living among people.

As a young adult, Malveron had matured and tempered his fiery spirit enough to join the Farstriders, specifically the School of the Dragonhawk. This Farstrider Lodge was hidden away in a castle within the mountains of the Hinterlands - they specialized in fighting beasts and dispelling curses, master fighters of the occult and witchcraft. Ranger-Lord Eribon Dragonstrider realized the elf's potential and through rigorous and unrelenting training formed Malveron into a disciplined and honorable elf.

Over the years, he learned how to be an excellent tracker, swordsmen, alchemist and occult scholar. He spent many years living in the Hinterlands, slaying forest trolls and any other monsters who strayed too close for comfort.

When the Second War began and the armies of the Horde and Alliance marched through the Hinterlands, Malveron joined with vigor and spirit - excited to begin a new adventure. He fought with his dwarven and elven comrades all the way until the end of the Siege of Silvermoon. At the end of the war he was promoted to Ranger-Captain for valorous acts of bravery during the Siege of Silvermoon.

Years past and eventually the horrors of the Third War would creep its way into the world by the death knight Arthas Menethil. Malveron was currently stationed in Felwood, assisting with the defense of the world tree, Nordrassil. He heard the call to defend Silvermoon but his human commander refused to allow him to return to defend High-Home; Malveron deserted his post and returned anyway, receiving a dishonorable discharge from the Alliance. Malveron returned to the silver city, steadfast on defending it and its people - the consequences be damned

But it was too late.

The city burned. The people, cursed into a terrible fate of undeath. Malveron watched as his people died in front of him, only to have to raise a sword to slay their lifeless bodies in their undeath state. The war scarred him. Malveron was wracked with the horrors of what he saw. His nightmares haunted his sleep, he needed to leave.

Malveron spent the last few years after the Third War traveling Azeroth, at first in a depressed and drunken stupor but after making new friends his purpose was renewed. He traveled everywhere seeking out contracts, bounties, and any quests that needed the eyes and steel of a veteran ranger-knight.

Current Whereabouts
Ranger-Lord Malveron Bladesong leads the School of the Dragonhawk after rediscovering the ancient highborne origins for the Farstrider Lodge. After years of searching, Malveron along with his companions discovered the location of the Starfall Barrow Den, the original dwelling of the Highborne "Thero'anir" or "Dragonblooded" members from the time of the War of the Ancients.

The School is now a neutral organization, holding a friendly presence among the Alliance and a neutral to unfriendly stance with members of the Horde. The School strides to be inclusive and look past the old hatreds of Azeroth. Instead, its members focus on protecting Azeroth from monsters - whether they be beast, demon, or man.
