His voice is soft and gentle when at peace, but quickly changes into a commanding presence when the situation warrants it. A soft golden glow has come over his eyes betraying the power of the Holy Light that he has served for so long. He carries himself with the pride of a Knight of the Order of the Silver Hand. To those who do not know him, he looks to be in his mid thirties, with a well kept goatee and flowing blonde hair swept back from his face.

=History= Born in Lordaeron 29 years before the first Orc war, Ewane was born a twin to Jonathan McDougal and Alaina Largand; both members of the Church of Light in Lordaeron. Both he and his twin brother Lachlan were raised in a family full of love and affection. His father a templar of the church sought for his sons to follow in his path and taught them the ways of the Holy Light and the ways of the sword. Ewane opened his heart and mind to the path of the Templar and slowly mastered the teachings from both his warrior father and his healer mother. Lachlan, unable to fully embrace the path of the Light was found to have a magical aptitude and sent to Dalaran for further training. After 10 years of training under his father's watchful eye and stern hand, Ewane was finally granted a position as Templar to the church where he served as a defender as well as healer to those in need. It was a fateful time as the first of many refugee ships from the embattled Kingdom of Stormwind arrived on the shores of Southshore. Ewane and many others were chosen by the church to assist the refugees with their relocation and he was sent to the camps to give whatever assistance was required. It was during this time that Ewane met a man that would change his outlook on life and faith. Ewane was assigned to assist Anduin Lothar; leader of the Stormwind Refugees, and did what he could to assist the man. Lothar told Ewane of the war with the Orcs and the atrocities that occured during that time. He also told Ewane of his intent to beseech the other Kingdoms to the north to assist in the war against the Horde. Ewane followed Lothar and maintained himself as one of the guardsman for the Stormwind Hero.  When the second war erupted with the appearance of Horde ships on the Horizon, Ewane answered the call to arms and readied himself for a bloody war. After the first season of war, he answered the call from the Church in Lordaeron. Uther Lightbringer had founded an order of Holy Knights; The Order of the Silver Hand. These select knights would be chosen from the worthy to become Paladins, Holy Warriors that wielded the Light as easily as they wielded their mighty warhammers. Ewane, having been at Lothar's side during the onset of the Second War was knighted a Paladin. He spent the remaining years of the war at Lothar and Uther's side, battling the Horde wherever they threatened. Eventually the war turned against the Horde as the stalwart soldiers of the Alliance battled long and hard. The final battle at Blackrock Mountain saw Lothar fall at the hands of the Horde Warchief Ogrimm Doomhammer. Uther, lifting the banner of Lothar rallied the forces of the Alliance once again and defeated the Horde.  With the defeat of the Horde, Ewane was recalled to Lordaeron where he was assigned to the protection of Hillsbrad and the outlying lands. He served as a justicar and metted out justice when needed as well as healed those who were ill or wounded. This continued for many years as the Alliance rebuilt themselves from the war and the Orc Prison camps were built. Ewane's capacity as a Justicar and Paladin of the Order earned him the title of Grand Inquisitor and he was once again reassigned to Lordaeron under Uther Lightbringer.
