Well I didn't play WoW but I can definitely see some references to Warcraft in general here.

From both his looks and his lore I can see many similarities to Demon Hunters. Demon Hunters are guys who made a pact to gain demonic powers. They usually do this because they seek revenge or are noble enough to sacrifice themselves for greater good. Most of the Demon Hunters are Night Elves (purplish skin). Often they cover their eyes with a scarf (because they become blind during the pact). Apart from that scarf they usually don't wear anything else on their upper body. They fight with special melee weapons.

Now look at Varus. A good guy, but seeking revenge he turned to dark powers. Purple skin, wears just a scarf (not on the eyes, but still). Uses a ranged weapon, but that's a small difference.
