class unholy death knight
traejan lightrend
Proud, narcississtic, and motivated by greed. He considers himself a man of science and industry who lets very little stand in the way of progress and results, no matter how cruel the method.

While he died defending his homeland against Arthas' invasion, he was grateful for his resurrection into undeath and considers it a gift. As a result he willingly chose to serve the Lich King.

Traejan made the bulk of his considerable wealth contracting his services out to the Horde, having supported both Garrosh Hellscream and Sylvanas Windrunner in their war campaigns and gotten monstrously rich as a result.

His patience would eventually pay off when the Ebon Blade turned to the Lich King for support during Legion. Although he serves as the Deathlord of Acherus and technically never needs to fight, he does so quite willingly and enjoys opportunities to test out his newest weapons.

skills + abilities
undead physiologyDeath Knights are an advanced, high-functioning form of undead. He has many of the benefits of a living person without the associated weaknesses. For example, he can survive injuries that would kill a living person (with their need for things like organs and such). He requires very little sleep and tires more slowly. There are some downsides, such as Holy magic burning as much as it heals, so it is not a recommended form of healing but more natural magics are more effective and gentle. The best method of healing is with more necromancy.
enhanced resistances He does not suffer from exposure to extremely low temperatures and has a much higher tolerance to warm temperatures (but not fire!). He is immune to most, if not all diseases (found on Azeroth). The exception is the Blight developed by the Forsaken.
advanced combat skills Highly trained and experienced in hand-to-hand / unarmed combat, one-handed weapons (swords, daggers, maces), and two-handed weapons (swords, maces, axes).
unholy specialisation Unholy death knights are masters of necromancy and pestilence. In addition to his existing combat abilities, he is able to manipulate several forms of magic-based pathogens as well as specialised undead constructs of his own making.
rune weapons Death Knights derive much of their power from their unique rune weapons. A weapon must be taken to a special "runeforge" for the process to actually work, but once a weapon has been given runes it becomes something of a living weapon. The weapon is bound to the Knight who forged it, influencing the death knight by way of the Endless Hunger — a compulsion and desire to cause suffering, pain, and death. Those who try to deny the Endless Hunger have been known to go mad from it or lose control until they are able to satisfy the weapon's need.
runic bonds Traejan has runes all over his body that appear like the result of ritual scarification. These glow with the same light as his eyes and the runes on his weapons, suggesting their magical significance. When the appropriate runes are applied to the bodies of his undead constructs in the same places, he becomes linked to them. Their senses become an extension of his senses and it becomes disorienting when he is cut off from them.
insect swarm Related to his Unholy specialisation, he maintains a mutually beneficial arrangement with a swarm of plague insects. They form a defence as well as an offensive tactic that he doesn't need to actively control and in exchange, he provides them with plenty of sustenance, necromantic energy, and a place to live. They're the main reason why he wasn't able to replace his left arm with a closely matching organic arm...
engineering skills Azerothian technology is primarily composed of large machinery and vehicles rather than the sort of thing we associate with consumer electronics, so he knows his way around hardware and tools and he's got a very good mind for figuring things out, especially if he can take them apart and put them back together. There is also a definite magical aspect to a lot of technology so he is familiar with blending the two together.
arcane knowledge While undeath cut off his abilities to manipulate arcane magic as he used to, he still retains all of his experience and years of careful study. As a Spellbreaker he was particularly specialised in dealing with complex spell weaves and unravelling them.
polyglot He has always had a particular knack for picking up different languages (and having many years to study them has helped). He speaks his native language of Thalassian fluently, of course. After that, he knows Common and Orcish although his accent would be quite pronounced in both. It is generally accepted that there was a language among the Scourge that sounds terrible to the ear. He can also read Gnomish and Goblin and can understand and speak quite a bit of the Nerubian language (which also sounds horrible as a bug language).
medical / anatomical knowledge While definitely not a trained medic, he does know his way around the body quite well. He would be quite capable of things like suturing wounds or setting broken bones, but as he's only ever put undead bodies back together one can assume it wouldn't be as soothing a process as being cared for by a proper healer.
survival skills He was trained as a soldier and has plenty of experience in the wilderness. He is capable of hunting, tracking, and building fires among other useful skills. He would be able to identify edible plant life and such, assuming he is in his own world.
music He can read music and play several instruments (violin, piano, harpsichord).
