Physical Features: Tallius is slim and fit, his frame well-toned and meticulously maintained. Though not commonly left within view, the entirety of his torso, arms, and legs are covered in a complex network of demonic and arcane sigils. Only his hands, feet, neck, and face have been left clean from the markings that chain his demon within. A simple cloth bandage is wrapped around where his eyes used to be, thick enough not to allow the fel glow that now fills their sockets from seeping through. A pair of ram-like horns curl from his forehead to wrap around his ears, but his features at least seem otherwise unmarred by his transformation. His wavy, chocolate colored hair is kept relatively short for practicality's sake.

History:Tallius was adopted almost as soon as he was born by his aunt and uncle, his mother not desiring a child without what she deemed 'desired' traits. As such he was raised as the Flamecrest's son, a highbourne unlike his birth mother. The young sin'dorei received schooling almost as soon as he could talk, and excelled in nearly everything that was set before him. He showed a special aptitude for magic and took lessons from his father until he was able to attend formal schooling.

Once he was old enough, he was set to the academy for training as a blood mage, where he excelled in the utilization of pyromancy, telemancy, and semi-permanent warding. His downfall was originally triggered by pure boredom and youthful impatience, until he gradually slipped towards the darker spectrum of the blood mage repertoire. After the fall of Silvermoon to the Scourge, he left the school entirely, opting instead for individual research into fel based magic. His studies eventually grounded themselves, and halted entirely when his parents began to talk to him about his origins.

Though he was able to briefly reconnect with blood relations, any relationships proved difficult to truly forge and temper due to side effects from his previous research. To remedy the issue he sought aid in Outland, and eventually joined the illidari prior to their fall. Forced to consume the beating heart of his own succubus, Tallius found himself forced to combat the urges and thoughts she projected with markedly more protective tattoos than most of his fellows. After participating in the few illidari victories prior to to the sacking of the Black Temple, the demon hunter was sealed away with the rest of his kind by the Wardens.

His re-emergence from the Vault left him with little desire to reconnect with what little living family remained, throwing himself instead into the important work of the illidari. Military records note recent service in the assault on the Nighthold, on the Broken Shore, and on the final assault on Argus.
