Matafleur



Name: Matafleur Dannan-Clayworth

Rank: Captain

Occupation: Officer of the Northwind Free Company

Physical Traits
At 5ft 3", Matafleur is of diminutive size. She is short, to put it bluntly. She has bright, flame red hair which she has now recently cut, so it is just skimming her jawline. She has no outstanding features aside from her hair. She is strong despite her size, her muscles holding a wiry, sinewy vigour that has surprised many a foe. She is skilled in the use of her blade and shield, and is equally at adept in hand to hand combat.

Race and Class
Human Warrior

Family
Matafleur has no family aside from her little Sister, Diorra Dannan, whom she is very protective of.

Her Father, Mother and baby Brother were murdered in an arson attack on their homefarm while Matafleur was away and in training.

She recently married her long-term partner Ceadric Clayworth.

Background
Not much is known of the years after the tragedy that befell Matafleur and her sister. Rumour has it she spent many of them looking for, and finally taking revenge upon, those who committed the crime. She has kept these years, and the actions she took a close secret and will never speak of it. Answering the call to bear arms in the fight at Mount Hyjal against the Burning Legion, she enlisted as a Footman and barely survived. Seeing the stalwart defense and proud bearing of Jaina Proudmoore and her troops, and feeling a part of something greater, gave Matafleur the determination to seek out Lady Proudmoore and her guard in Theramore. When she arrived there she recognised the Major and enlisted as a Marine. Her rise through the ranks had been swift, but is only a testament to the hard work she invested to Theramore and to Lady Proudmoore. She resigned her commission recently, deciding to go and offer support for her new husband's endeavors in the Northwind Free Company, joining as an Officer.

Family Background
Her parents owned a farmstead in Elwynn forest, until their murder. Nothing remains of it now. It seems as if Matafleur comes from a long line of farmers and workers of the land. Her departure into a more energetic career was not approved of by her family. This has given her the impetus to prove them wrong, even now when they are dead, perhaps more so.

Her sister is relatively unknown. She is missing for long periods at a time. It is thought she is a mercenary of some sort.

Criminal Record
Clean.

Current Status
Cpt. Dannan is currently stationed in Westbrook Garrison along with the rest of her Company..
