User:Nalix

Nalix's official biography states that he was born at a Gnoll Camp in Elwynn Forest on February 16, 1942. However, Exiled's records show he was born in the Barrens village of Tarjuro, near Mulgore, on February 16, 1941, where his father, Zul'Jin, was a captain and battalion commander in the Trollian 65th Division, which was made up of Troll and Orc exiles. It is believed that his official birth year was adjusted so he would be seen to have been born in the year of his father's 30th birthday.

Nalix's mother was Zul'jin's first wife, Jaina Proudmoore. During his youth in the Horde, Nalix was known as Super Uber Noob Pwner, taking his patronymic from his father's russified name.

Nalix was a young child when The Great War ended. His father returned to Thunder Bluff in September 1945, and in late November Nalix returned to Durotar via a Troll ship that landed at the shores of Gadgetzan. The family moved into a former Undead officer's mansion in Durotar, with a garden and pool. Nalix's brother Malix (also known as the noobass priest) drowned there in 1948. In 1948, Nalix began primary school. In 1949, his mother died in pregnancy.

Nalix probably received most of his education in Algormortis's School of Uber Leetsauceness, where he was sent away from his father for safety during the Second War. According to the official biography, he graduated from Algormortis's School in Silverpine Forest, a special school for the children of communist party officials. He is later said to have attended Algormortis's University of Pwnage and to have majored in Throwing Specialization, graduating in 1964. His graduating class won the highest academic honor, Double Chollima. By the time of his graduation, his father, revered in the government's official pronouncements as "the Great Leader", had firmly consolidated control over the government. He is also said to have received English language education at the University of the Algster in the early 1970s, on his infrequent holidays in Durotar as guest of Prime Minister Algormortis.

Zul'jin had meanwhile remarried and had another son, Jalix. It is unclear if Nalix was chosen over Jalix, or whether Jalix was ever seriously considered as successor by his father. Since 1988, Nalix has served in a series of Trollian embassies in Kalimdor and is currently the Trollish ambassador to the Humans. It is suspected that Nalix was exiled to these distant posts by his father in order to avoid a power struggle between his two sons.
