OOC: Why is it when I attempt to write NSFW I freeze?
um.. cause you’re a death knight? isn’t that what you do?
Oi! He’s not a death knight, he’s an undead paladin. There’s a difference, Rexxar.
This is ridiculously pedantic, but in-game lore actually state that he’s a death knight:
Commander Eligor Dawnbringer says: The most powerful Death Knights within Naxxramas are the four horsemen. They represent the pinnacle of Kel’Thuzad’s guard. The first, Thane Korth’azz, holds the power of flame.
Commander Eligor Dawnbringer says: The next, Lady Blaumeux, calls forth the power of shadows, drawing the souls of the living into the voracious embrace.
Commander Eligor Dawnbringer says: Sir Zeliek, a paladin in life, so strong in his faith, that even in undeath, the power of the light still heeds his call, smiting his foes in battle.
Commander Eligor Dawnbringer says: The final death knight, Lord Mograine, was the finest warrior that the death knights had ever seen. However, after the events in Azeroth, he vanished without a trace. It is yet to be seen who Kel’Thuzad has appointed in his place.
