Verbrannt grew up in a small village known as Cleftleaf. The village was known to be the home of many devout worshipers of Wildaven. They were said to be blinded by their faith, and because of that, many people suffered.

Verbrannt was conceived during an affair, which caused the villagers to view him as cursed. He was forced to stay inside of his home, where he spent the majority of his time reading his family's large collection of literature. Upon turning twelve, the village elders threatened to kill his parents if they would not get rid of him. His parents took him on a trip, an as they came to the border that went into Templehelm, his parents pointed out an oddly colored mushroom on the other side of the border. Verbrannt, oblivious of his parents' plan, ran to the mushroom to get a better look. He turned back to his parents, but they were gone.

One of the first people Verbrannt met in Templehelm was Ringwe. Upon meeting her, Ringwe saw that Verbrannt was alone, and claimed him as her little brother. Ringwe had reminded Verbrannt of his older sister Isis, who had died of a poisonous snakebite when they were younger. Because of this, Verbrannt quickly grew attached to Ringwe. Weeks later, Ringwe was drowned by a rot dealer named Ekgnujya, which impacted Verbrannt greatly.

After Ringwe's death, Verbrannt secluded himself to a small peninsula to the west of Ironshard. There, he spread the decay and raised a village that would later be the home of the Afflicted. It took his mind off of his sister's death and eventually led to him meeting new people.

As of now, Verbrannt is living with the rest of the Afflicted on Syzar Isle.
