Bjorn Stromvyr

Bjorn Stromvyr is a decorated soldier and a veteran Paladin of the Silver Hand who has served the Alliance military for more than twenty five years. He is a veteran of nearly every conflict since the third war, and presently serves as Commander of his niece's local troop levy, known as the Myrewood Brigade. The youngest child of Jarl Baldr Stromvyr, Bjorn was born in the Arathi Highlands, on the family estate just East of Stromgarde City.

Forced to leave his family lands after years of fighting valiantly to defend them against the Horde and the Witherbark Trolls, Bjorn now resides in Stormwind with his elder sister, the Dowager Countess of Myrewood. Although his wife was slain by members of the Horde during the March on the Highlands, the couple had one son and the boy has just begun a career in the military in the hope of attaining Stormwind Citizenship.

Appearance
Tall, athletic and powerfully-built, this man seems as formidable as some men decades his junior. His posture and easy confidence would indicate that he was no stranger to combat. His closely-cropped hair is more salt than pepper, and his strong jaw is often covered in a week or more of beard growth. He might be considered handsome in a more rugged sense.

His armor is simple, Alliance standard-issue and while clearly well-maintained, bears the signs of heavy use. A silver badge is pinned to his tabard, signifying his service as Commander of Myrewood's local troop levy. On ceremonial occasions, a number of medals are proudly displayed on his uniform, making it evident that he was a career soldier and a decorated officer in the Alliance military.
