Lance Valonforth

Early Childhood 8ADP - 20ADP
Lance Valonforth was first born to Gale and Derek Valonforth in Lordaeron two years after the Second War ended. His upbringing was stressful and tedious compared to his siblings Galliard and Lily, who got more free time to themselves but at the cost of their parents' attention. In turn, making them envious of Lance. The Shadow of the Second War loomed over Lordaeron and the Valonforth family was especially effected. The interment camps were a costly operation and the Valonforth family oversaw two of them. Camp Valon, and Westholde. The Kingdom was also dealing with the reconstruction of the First and Second War, to which the Valonforth family had some hand in to an extent.

In 13 ADP at the age of five Lance was put to extreme tasks of learning. His father wanted to start at a young age to start sculpting Lance into the ideal leader for the House. Derek believing if he presented a superior heir than that of Lucas Valonforth's eldest, his parents would select him to rule the house and not Lucas. This mantra his father set upon him rooted into Lance. He became more egotistic and righteous for this cause, seeing it as a birthright. This superiority complex further separated him from not only his siblings but his cousins and peers. While his siblings did come around to support him in the end, his cousins and him hold slight animosity.

Fall of Lordaeron 20ADP
During the Scourge of Lordaeron, the Valonforth family was heavily effected. At the main household many family members saw their end. Including Lance and Galliard's father, mother, and little sister, Lily. The two brother escaped however with the remaining family. Being the two survivors of their family sect, the two grew closer in their new lives in Stormwind.

Life in Stormwind 20ADP - Current
Lance and Galliard finished his adolescence in Stormwind with the remaining family. Falric Valonforth took in the orphaned children of Derek and Sarah. Treating them as his own, the two brothers grew close with their Uncle.

Falric was more passive towards Lance about his duties not wanting to seem forceful like his father. Lance however took this as Falric thinking Lance isn't suitable for leadership, causing him to leave his home with Falric and causing a rift with his brother, Galliard.

The Greshams, his mother's family, sought out Lance in Stormwind, originally having fled to the Scarlet Crusade's holding for sanctuary during the Fall of Lordaeron. The Gresham family tipped Falric into Lucas' whereabouts and happenings causing him to disengage from the scene. Richard Gresham made an dwelling offer to Lance. Having nowhere better to go Lance gladly took it up. The Gresham family would reignite Lance's desire to lead the Valonforth family. Richard and Reynaldo Gresham saw Gale's marriage to Lance as a power move for their family, and still trying to push their house name to greater influence to this day.

Lance now assumes he is unopposed for the Lord title of House Valonforth. (WIP)
