Notable Powers
Anaroth's skill in sword and shield-play is remarkable. With each passing experience, he grows more adept in his class and less likely to be defeated in battle. ((Each time Anaroth levels up, he becomes more likely to succeed in battle))

Anaroth's most notable power has to be his attunement to the Holy Light, which is only so potent because of his mother's love for him. When Anaroth focuses, he can release an Aura of Light which increases his skills against the unholy forces of the Scourge, Illidan's Burning Crusade and the Burning Legion. However, this has a drawback. If, for any reason, Anaroth was to intensify it to a certain point, his body would not be able to sustain the power he has reached and even if he manages to overcome his enemy, the damage done to his body would be irreprable and he would die within a matter of seconds, most likely from massive internal bleeding/organ failure. Although, even if Anaroth does not intensify it much, Anaroth becomes weak for a few seconds after is has subsided, making him vulnerable for his skills with a sword and shield will account for nothing if he has not recovered before another attack ((This power is Anaroth's greatest strength as well as his greatest weakness.))

Occupation
Anaroth's occupations are blacksmith, which he picked up from his noble heritage, and miner. Although he has barely enough time for these, he makes an honest living out of them.

He was the former High Commander of the Scarlet Crusade and has offically left the Scarlet Crusade.

Anaroth is also the prophecised Everchosen of the Ashbringer Crusade. His son, the Prophet and Highlord of the Ashbringer Crusade, Shanos, saw in a vision his father lead an army against the forces of the Lich King in Alterac Valley and at the Icecrown Citadel.

Shortly after Anaroth's return, he called all the recruits to Stormwind and declared the Ashbringer Crusade a secret society. They then marched on Alterac Valley, driving back some of the Scrouge who made there way from Northrend, soldifying his status as Everchosen.

Background
'' Anaroth Everstill was born to Rainoth Everstill, a High Elf, and Alwyna Forsword, a Human Noble, one hundred and thirty seven years ago in the Kingdom of Lordaeron. Anaroth's family on his mother's side where wealthy nobles, having been granted their nobility for forging the armour of the Royal Guard of Lordaeron for three generations. The Forsword Nobles served under the Royal Family of Lordaeron as the Royal Blacksmiths and were one of the ruling houses in Stratholme.

When Anaroth was fifty seven, his mother passed away, leaving the patents of nobility in his hands. This caused a lot of controversy because of Anaroth was Half Elf. However, once Anaroth's father, Rainoth, stepped forward, Anaroth was quickly accepted as Lord of the House. Outraged, Rainoth left Stratholme and headed back to Silvermoon, but not before telling Anaroth why he married Allynah. A week later, King Terenas Menethil II took the throne of Lordaeron.

Forty three years later, the First War begins.

Six years later, the Second War begins. Anaroth backs King Menethil to go to war against the Orcish Horde, offering up his House Guard to the army. Anaroth takes his brother, sister and new born son, Shanos to visit Lordaeron shortly before Stratholme is destoryed. His first wife dies in the conflict.

When the Orcish Horde laid siege to Lordaeron, Anaroth took up the Forsword Blade and forged himself a suit of armour made from rare ores found. He also created a mighty shield using a crest of Lordaeron. This would be the first time Anaroth would take up sword and shield in the defence of a land and people. Against his better judgement, he joined the Royal Guard in defending the city. Anaroth and his remaining family members survived the siege and the war and Anaroth donated half his families fortune to the reconstruction of Stratholme, as well as assisting in it's rebuilding.

Thirteen years later, Anaroth begins training with the Church of Light in Stormwind to become a Paladin and leaves his brother, Rainis, as Acting Lord of the House. His sister joins him shortly afterwards. His son, Shanos, and daughter, Threesa, attend school in the city of Lordaeron.

Just over a year later, Arthas performs the Culling of Stratholme. Anaroth becomes a full fledged Paladin and heads for home.

When Anaroth returned to the lands of Lordaeron, he recieved word of what happened. It threw him into turmoil for months, having lost his wife and brother in the Culling. Anaroth sent his two children to Stormwind to protect them from the Scourge.

Half a year later, Arthas returned and slew his father. Anaroth joined Uther the Lightbringer in a bid to stop him. When Uther was slain, Anaroth called for a retreat. The remaining Silver Hand scattered.

Some time later, Anaroth joined the Scarlet Crusade as it's High Commander. Shortly after, however, Anaroth left the Crusade when the news of Alexandros Mograine's death arrived from the mouth of Fairbanks. Anaroth joins the Argent Dawn, along with his son, Shanos. Shanos disappears shortly after.

Anaroth leaves the Argent Dawn to train as a Warrior in Stormwind and reunites with his daughter.

(( World of Warcraft begins ))

Anaroth finishes his training as a Warrior and becomes an adventurer. He travels all over Azeroth in a bid to become strong enough to avenge his family.

A year later, the Dark Portal opens and Anaroth ventures to Outland in hopes that the experiences there help him become stronger. Eight months later, Anaroth returns to Stormwind and, with the help of Archbishop Benedictus, successfully give Shanos, who had become a Death Knight, his soul back allowing him to reject the Lich King. Shortly thereafter, Anaroth is killed near Everlook by a band of Death Knights would woul later become part of the Knights of the Ebon Blade.

A year later, Anaroth is resurrected by his close friend, Belthar, his third wife, Raine, his daughter, Threesa and his son, Shanos with the help of their newly formed guild, The Ashbringer Crusade. Anaroth informs them to keep the guild a secret until a time comes when the world can accept it. ''

Family Background
The Everstill bloodline has seemingly dried up apart from Anaroth, his full-blooded Blood Elf cousin, Sanoth, and his children, Shanos, Threesa and his 3 month old, Nilk.

Character
WARNING: ** Contains Spoilers**

Anaroth is a realistic man with idealistic visions. He never has time for the politics of the world but seeks to unite the races of Azeroth under one banner against the threat of the Burning Legion, Illidan's Burning Crusade and the Scrouge. He is head strong and opposes his superiors at every turn. A notable person Anaroth has opposed is none other than Saiden Dathrohan. When Anaroth found out that Dathrohan had been possessed by the Dreadlord Balnazzar, he attacked him. It nearly cost him his life. If Anaroth's cousin, Mitsuro, had not have come to his aid, Balnazzar would have killed him then and there. Although Anaroth knows the truth about the Grand Crusader, he keeps his tongue as he does not want the members of the Crusade to lose faith in the Light.

Anaroth has fought and bled for the Scarlet Crusade and Azeroth in an effort to defend it from all who wish it harm.

Above all, Anaroth is compassionate, trusting and caring.

Current Status
Since the Alliance and Hordes venture to Northrend, Anaroth has been secretly resurrected. Shanos and Belthar have been spreading the news of his return, saying that is a miracle of the Light.

Following his return, Anaroth was drafted into Highlord Bolvar Fordragon's personal regiment to fight at the Wrathgate in the Dragonblight. Just before the assault, Anaroth was ordered by Highlord Tirion Fordring at the behest of King Varian Wrynn to join the Argent Stand. Shortly after Anaroth reached the Argent Stand, he recieved word that his longtime friend, Bolvar, had died at the hands of the rogue apothecaries at the Wrathgate. Since then, Anaroth has been seething over this news, blaming Fordring for taking him out of the army stationed there and has been working harder than anyone else in hopes of been called up to the Argent Vanguard.

Anaroth's exploits at the stand have awarded him with a place at the Vanguard and they currently await his arrival.
