Full name: Halayn Dawnstrider
Gender and Sexuality: Male / Bisexual
Ethnicity/species: Sinâdorei
Guilty pleasures: Hal is not guilty about any pleasures, except maybe when he seduces straight older comrades. oopsÂ
What they would be famous for: That hair. Have you seen it?
What they have/would get arrested for: Â Hal has no record. I mean if your family was rich and your offenses minor you wouldnât either. He is most likely to be arrested for holy shocking the shit out of someone being rude to nice people.
OC you ship them with: Â Vaudious (@vaudious) among some others
OC most likely to murder them:  Eliehn Anorârhyn at his brother Alderienâs (@anorrhyn) orders. It hasnât happened yet, but that would be the scenario.Â
Favorite book genre: Romance of course.
Least favorite book cliche: Dead parents. Too close.
Talents and/or powers: Healing, defensive combat, impeccable style, can actually be your knight in shining armor.
Why someone might love them: His loyalty, how easily he reciprocates love and affection, his unfaltering will to live and to live well, his desire to protect and to serve, and that the heart he wears on his sleeve is genuinely good.
Why someone might hate them: Heâs selfish in many ways, heâs privileged, spoiled, he can be extremely lazy, heâs flippant, heâs irreverent, heâs hard to keep entertained, heâs easy to envy, he can have a short temper, heâs ten kinds of high maintenance, if he doesnât like you he makes it very clear.
How they change: In times of peace and in safe places, Hal is the picture of a privileged lord, living like he doesnât have a care in the world. In times of war and on the battlefield heâs focused, and every bit the weapon that a Blood Knight should be. Hal has the tact to know when and where to be serious, and he doesnât play around with anybodyâs life.Â
Why you love them: Heâs fun to play, heâs a good character, and heâs the kind of knight Iâve always wanted to read about in a story.Â
Two head canons you have for your character that youâve never told anyone:Â
1. I once considered writing Hal more like Percival or Galahad, and to have him be celibate. If in an AU where King Anasterian and Prince Kaelâthas lived, and if Hal became a royal guard like he always wanted, he would love only them and no one else.
2. Hal has a special attraction to pedagogues. It doesnât matter what the subject or trade is, heâs happy to be their pupil.
Two things your character regrets:
1. Wasting away in Draenor only to sit back with the rest of the Vanguard and watch Grom walk free??? The fuck was that shit...
2. Not putting a sword through any of the Quelâdorei that turned on the Sinâdorei in the Purge of Dalaran. If he ever sees any of them, and knows they took part, he will kill them.
Two phobias/fears your character has:
1. Being unable to save those he loves.
2. Spiders, especially the big ones.
