History:
Born to the Grey family, Aldean was schooled in the arts of combat. He trained alongside his cousins and peers hoping to one day lead the charge against the Orcish Hordes. He became fascinated with the art of two handed weapons, the finesse and challenge of it. He strived to become a great warrior and carried a large hammer he'd call, "Might." His father Causis taught him the secrets of the art and sparred with him every day. "When your time comes Aldean, you'll plow over the orcs and become a legend." He looks to his hammer and nods, "Justice upon them." When Aldean finally came of age, he joined the Alliance army and marched against the orcs in Hillsbrad. Under his uncle Teldrion's command, he and an army of men, dwarves and elves clashed against the Horde. The battle was gruesome and Aldean relished every swing. He and the hammer, "Mighty" carved their way through the orc ranks. Orcs began to move aside and attack Aldean's comrades, but before the warrior could react, he hears large footsteps impact the ground behind him. Chains dangled and a large figure took the field, the orc introduced himself by swinging towards Aldean with his crude hammer. Aldean dodged and swung back at his attacker. The duel lasted for minutes but Aldean was hit in the side by the massive weapon and collapsed. The orc stood over Aldean and laughed, "No human can master this skill. Your kind is too weak!" The orc then raised his own hammer overhead and prepared to deal the final blow. Just then, from the battle, a man jumped in front of the orc and engaged the barbarian. "Father!" screamed Aldean. Causis skillfully kept the orc back with his warhammer, he swung forcing the orc to dodge and block. "You meddlesome pup!" The orc threw his chains toward the warrior's feet and Causis fell, dropping his weapon. The chains wrapped around Causis's legs and the orc began to drag him over. Aldean picks up his father's warhammer and charges the orc. The creature drags Causis in and stabs him in the chest, "Nooo!!" Aldean jumps between them and crushes the orc's head with a violent swing. The beast falls over dead, bloodied knife still in hand. Aldean rushes to his father and kneels at his side, "My son." Causis smiles as blood flows from his lips, "Justice upon them." Causis's eyes close and he dies in front of Aldean. Aldean stands and grasps his hammer, "Might" and his father's, one in each hand. Aldean slaughtered the orcs and became well known among the Alliance; he and his weapons, "Might" and, "Justice." Aldean and his remaining family made there way to Stormwind after the Scourge invasion and Aldean currently serves as a warrior of the Alliance.
