Death Knight
When the Lich King’s control of his death knights was broken, his former champions sought revenge for the horrors committed under his command. After their vengeance was won, the death knights found themselves without a cause and without a home. One by one they trickled into the land of the living in search of a new purpose.
Death Knights engage their foes up-close, supplementing swings of their weapons with dark magic that renders enemies vulnerable or damages them with unholy power. They drag foes into one-on-one conflicts, compelling them to focus their attacks away from weaker companions. To prevent their enemies from fleeing their grasp, death knights must remain mindful of the power they call forth from runes, and pace their attacks appropriately.
Meet Aartheus, Draenei Death Knight, Lvl 60 - Feathermoon RP Realm. He is haunted by his beginnings and spends sleepless nights fraught with night terrors that have him wandering the pathways of darkness in search of something. Something to ease the empty hollow he feels deep to his core. Something to ease the guilt of what was that follows him everywhere.
He is fearsome because of his past and his battle prowess is a force to be reckoned with. He is in search of something to ease his anguish. He does have a heart but most don’t wait around long enough to see that. People flee when he approaches and so he spends most of his time alone.
He fiercely protects those he feels are being unfairly attacked. He is on a quest to make amends and prove he is worthy of someday being a valued member of society. You want him on your side for sure.
Children seem to see beyond his intimidating exterior and you might find him tucked away in a corner of Stormwind, surrounded by a group of street orphans, enthralling them with tales of faraway adventures. He always carries sweet gumdrops in his pockets for the little ones. He finds comfort in being around the children who call him a friend.
If you meet Aertheus on your travels do not fear him unless of course you are up to no good.
