A rather unremarkable looking man with neat brown hair and beard. Average size and build. He has a pair of dark green eyes and a slightly irregular nose. He usually wears his blue robes, but will occasionally vary. Can always be seen with what apears to be a gnomish pocket watch and an old sword, with a small crystal at the hilt, glowing at his side. He walks swiftly, as if in a slight hurry, and often seems distracted, his eyes darting around. |

Spirit
"He is often distracted by his own thoughts, hindering his ability to deal with his surroundings beyond a very general level. When focused and dealing with very familiar subjects that interest him he may show surprisingly effective results and a good memory. Unfortunately, he is rarely focused when frustrated, stressed or in panic, and can act foolishly. He's mostly pacific, but has been known to have violent moments in stressful situations." - Professor Roudfus Fizzlespark
"He's a good guy. A bit boring, I suppose, but loyal. I like that in a man. And hey, he makes Liz happy, so it's all good." - Merwyn Lindor Morghani
"Withamhall? What dim bleeder, and a nosey git to boot!" - Mage Nelson DeBreton
"He'd make a horrible buisnessman." - Lord Montywort Thandrel
"That weirdo who thinks he's a mage." - Nelinde Belgarde
Life
As written by a hypothetical historian
Despite being often overshadowed by his wife's popularity in life, posteriority has revealed Lord Richeron Withamhall as an enigmatic, and potentially equally significant player in the time of the Great Wars. Many accounts of R. Withamhall's life are often considered fake due to their sheer unlikelyhood, however evidence shows that some are acurate.
It is well established that R. Withamhall was born to a family of Northshire farmers in a sealed Ironforge during the Orcish invasions. However, there is no evidence to suggest that their narrow escape from the Orcs' initial invasions was fueled by a prophecy of any sort. It was most likely sheer dumb luck.
When the Orcish wars ended, the family returned to Northshire with their young son (no more would ever survive past birth, leaving R. Withamhall an only child) to rebuild their farm. When R. Withamhall reached the tender age of 12, his father submited him to train as a squire under the tutelage of Sir Percival Lightwell, an aged paladin who had fought in the wars. Contrary to what was usually the case, the young Richeron was accepted by the paladin, along with the sons and daughters of several higher-class citizens. This arrangement survived for seven years, until Sir Lightwell left to fight the Scourge in Lordaeron, leaving R. Withmhall with an incomplete training.
During the later years of R. Withamhall's tutelage, he took a keen interest in the local Abbey's library, and displayed a remarkable ability to assimilate new knowledge on many subjects. During this time an unkown Quel'dorei visited Northshire and created in Withamhall a fascination with the arcane that would last his whole life. When his training was interrupted by the war, R. Withamhall delved even further in to his studies and often traveled to Stormwind to visit the Royal Library. During this time, he amassed considerable theoretical knowledge of the Arcane Arts and learnt a small array of (mostly obscure) languages.
When his father and then his mother died, R. Withamhall moved to Stormwind City and became a librarian at the Royal library. He came to meet several influential minds of the time, including Professor Berdrin Stormspanner and Lady Lashela Alania, before she became the renown Faith of the Dark Embrace. It was during the initial years in Stormwind that research led R. Withamhall to the startling discovery of his noble heritage. There has been some debate about wether his claims were actually legitimate, but as exceptional as these circumstances may seem, there is no evidence to put them in question. Apart from the right to use mostly obsolete titles, a few family heirlooms and a boost in his political career, R.Withamhall gained very little from this discovery. R. Withamhall's participation in Stormwind politics was short, but it placed him in the public eye and earned him a favourable income, with which he bought a comfortable home (some documents hint that he bought it for far less than it was actually worth). He soon met his future wife, then known as Elizabetha Istro, as a more moderate figure within the local branch of the Scarlet Crusade. Their engagement was short (some documents identify her as blind, though other sources confirm that a few months later she had one intact eye. The explanation for this strange mistery is yet to be found.) and Elizabetha Withamhall quickly became pregnant with Annika and Iohannes Withamhall.
When the final efforts to destroy the Lich King began, R. Withamhall joined the University of Dalaran as Headmaster Nelson DeBreton's deputy. This was a difficult time for him, due to his wife's presence in the front, alongside the Argent Crusade.
