Demon Hunter
Tharion follows the traditional garb of the demon hunter caste, which usually consists of light protection to allow for better movement and agility against the typically slower foes of the Burning Legion. He can most commonly be seen wearing twin demon skulls upon his shoulders, strapped to his body with a myriad of belts and buckles. Around his waist hangs a long kilt, which allows him less protection, but an ease of motion that restricting armor cannot always match. Finally, Tharion's face is almost always covered with a mask of some sort.

Armored
When Tharion needs to be better protected, he dons a dark set of black dragonscale armor augmented with heavy, blood red mail gauntlets and boots. In this uniform, Tharion can almost always be seen displaying the colors of the school he founded, the Netherbane.

History
Before the Sundering, Tharion Draghei Mordaveh lived with his family around the base of Mount Hyjal. Tharion himself was a scholar, dedicating himself to books and the pursuit of knowledge. His brother, Azhaan Thelriz Mordaveh, followed the more martial path. During the upheaval caused by the opening of the Well of Eternity and the invasion of the Burning Legion, Tharion found himself running from the monstrous demons that poured forth. During one particular encounter, he ran away and left both his father and brother to fight a particularly nasty felguard on their own. Azhaan never forgave him for this. Shortly thereafter, Tharion left his home in self-exiled, shamed by how own actions and fears. After a few years wandering the Ashenvale forest, he met a young kaldorei woman named Elaia Shaillan. By this time Tharion had voluntarily dropped his middle name and family name, only going by "Tharion." Elaia, taking a measure of pity on the wandering vagabond, brought Tharion to a small encampment. It was at the encampment that Tharion first met Eraelan Netherbane, a demon hunter and a teacher of that path. Elaia was one of his students. Tharion, still weighed by the guilt of leaving his father and brother to fight the fel creatures alone, chose to learn the path of the demon hunter, and Eraelan agreed to teach him. The encampment became Tharion's home, and as he advanced in his skills and his outlook, Eraelan gifted him with the name "Greyseer" to indicate Tharion's unique view of the balance between good and evil. When the third war fell upon Kalimdor, Tharion left the camp to fight the invading Burning Legion. He fought well enough, but realized that his skills were not as sharp as they needed to be. This was the first time since the Sundering that he had faced so many demons of such power, and he discovered that years of practicing against other kaldorei and woodland beasts did not compare to fighting the real thing. Thus he returned to the camp, only to find it destroyed and Eraelan missing. Tharion then chose to wander the world, looking for ways to advance his training himself. Believing his mentor dead, Tharion had no one to guide him to the completion of his path. It was then that he first took his steps into the full world of Azeroth.

Alignment:
True Neutral, swaying around depending on the mood or climate of the events around him.

Personality:

 * Believes in a pseudo-philosophy he calls "The Grey." It is the belief that "good" and "evil" are but labels applied to things that are not necessarily either.  It is the knowledge that every person and entity should be judged on his or her actions and motivations, rather than on some arbitrary label given by someone who does not know any better.
 * Has a heavy belief in the ideal of "honor." Tharion lives by it and forms his own opinions regarding those around him based upon his own flavor of it.
 * Almost always covers his face, although it is unknown why. Those who have seen Tharion unmasked know that his face is neither disfigured nor scarred.
