Lord Garlan Varganous

Overview
Garlan was born the bastard of a proud lord and a low born whore. Unaware of his heritage, the boy worked hard in his birthplace of Stormwind City, taking jobs where he could to support himself and his mother. Though he knew he didn't fit in very well when he was younger, he soon grew to accept this as he grew.

When the boy turned 16, his mother died of an illness. The boy turned young man soon learned of his father, Lord Clend Varganous, and left his home of Stormwind to live with him.

While his father was welcoming at first and even allowed the boy to take after him further by giving him his blood and turning him, it soon grew aparent that he did not think much of the arrogant teenager. Even as time went on and Garlan stayed with Clend and his wife, he knew he still did not belong, for a bastard can never hope to be more than any trueborn Clend would father.

Garlan eventually left home once again to squire under one of his cousins, another lord. He grew rather attatched to said lord's younger brother, Sir Daemond Redwood. The two often went drinking together and Daemond even helped with Garlan's training.

He was called home not long after turning 17 to take over as lord of House Varganous. He was not pleased with this, as it had never been his dream. His father proclaimed him a trueborn, though, and after he died, Garlan took over.

Early Life
Garlan began his life in Stormwind City with his low born, whore mother. For the first 10 years of his life, he was generally well kept and doted on by his mother and her 'friends'. He lead a happy life up till then, although he was never popular with other children in the slums of Old Town. The young boy was very often bullied and pushed around, although he had inherited a broad frame from his father. The boy was not prone to violence, though, and regularly allowed himself to be abused and tormented. It never got to him and he strived to be better than those boys who's only joy in life was to hurt others.
