Darkenheart

== Description== The figure before you, is a still, pale white Forsaken. Upon closer examination you will notice his facial features which are two small gashes inlaid with a steel spike, one under each glowing eye, two steel bolts in his chin, and four upon his forhead in a "v" curviture.

If you get even closer you will notice that like other Forsaken, He has stopped breathing, and is still, other than the occasional shifts in stance.

This Forsaken before you will also be clad in leather gear, some strapped down, and four plates over his shoulders. Going down his back will be a dark cloak, covering most of his lower body if you viewed him from behind.

His hair is Black, and long flowing for some Forsaken. When close enough you will see it somewhat thick, as though it had been wet, or washed recently. Perhaps it was raining where this Forsaken was at recently? Perhaps he dunked into the water, weary of the rumors of how his kind smells from the other races. You would have to ask him. Most of the time it will be Tirisfal or Gilnean Rain, as this one is in those areas much of his time.

His elbow and knee bones are exposed, with the surrounding calves and thighs, forearms and biceps and triceps are grotesquely sewn over and over around the bones.. probably to keep things from.. Falling out.

His fingers and toes have no skin, and are filed down to deadly sharp points, as well as having sharpened knuckles. If you get close to him, and watch him talk, you will also see that he has very sharp and clean teeth, though they appear natural, and not self made.

You will see him donning a satchel and two long, curved daggers hanging from his belt. Even from a distance you will see the ghastly green glow about his blades.

If you are close enough to see any of these things, you can assume that despite his stance and figure, he has noticed you, and be be searching you as well. If he is not looking directly at you, you may take heart knowing that he may still be.. targetting you.

Also, if by chance you happen to catch him near a cockroach or Abomination, he will seem happier.

History
He was born in Tarren Mill, 14 years before the First War. When the First War happened, he had no idea of its existence,

until word spread to Tarren Mill from King Terenas Menethil II. Word of war and orcs had spurned Alessedor, in to training, and finding his own path of combat and lifestyle.

Six years later, when the Second War had begun, High Elves of the Silver Moon had begun scouting south,and a small group was captured by an orcish raiding party north of Tarren Mill. A rescue party of lordaeron military arrived, and recruited Alessedor into the rescue team. They traveled north, and during the skirmish with the orc guards, Alessedor played a key role in taking out a turret tower full of archers.

Later, as they were departing, Alessedor was asked to become a footman and rogue scout recruit in the Lordaeron Army.

He excitedly accepted, and followed on to campaigns in Tol Barad, and circling back up north to Alterac, and was in the retributive battle of Alterac City. Although that was the end of his campaign, because instead of going south to Blackrock and the Dark Portal, His calling was to the North, to punish the Alterac traitors.

Alessedor did not return to Tarren Mill when the war was over; instead, he traveled to Lordaeron to continue his training in the military.

over the course of 13 more years Alessedor remained in Lordaeron and in it's military and came to gain respect from his fellow soldiers.

Soon the calling for a Third War had begun, and this time Alessedor was ready to serve his country yet again.

Alessedor was put under Captain Falric's command, who was Arthas' right hand man.

When Arthas returned with the newfound Frostmourne, he raised his armies as undead.

Alessedor followed Falric and Marwyn with Arthas on the return to Lordaeron, and followed Arthas' orders to kill everyone. He felt no pity, or remorse. He simply followed Champion Arthas' orders. Alessedor further accompanied Arthas to Quel'Thalas, and aided in the tearing down of the gates, and razing the scar to the Sunwell.

Arthas and his company commuted back to Lordaeron, where Arthas was to establish a foothold of Lordaeron and make the city his staging point, but the Lich King had called Arthas to return to Northrend.

Alessedor remained, and was stationed in Lordaeron while most of the army returned the north.

As Arthas further moved north, his mental grasp on many undead's minds minds had withered and unshackled.

Sylvanas was released first, but kept it a secret. Alessedor, along with many other undead later, also regained freedom. Sylvanas staged a coup on Arthas later, but failed in his assassination. Alessedor was among the many undead who joined The Dark Lady in her newfound Forsaken.

Alessedor had no trouble coping with the reality of his undeath, and found use in servitude of the Dark Lady. He joined the deathstalkers and served Varimathras for seven years. On one fateful assignment, in the Eastern Plaguelands, Alessedor, who was now going by his last name, Bladeheart, was sent to lead a small party to Stratholme to assassinate the Death Knight Baron Rivendare. Bladeheart, after many hours of stealthing his way through the buildings and scaling buildings and traversing the building tops, succeeded in reaching the slaughterhouse, which was Baron Rivendare's base of operations, but was slain in single combat with the Death Knight. Rivendare did not dispose of Bladeheart's body however, Rivendare wanted Bladeheart to suffer, thinking he was of Scarlet Crusade origin, he sent Bladeheart's body to the newly constructed Acherus and was to be made into a Death Knight.

Bladeheart awoke and was directed to speak with the Lich King Himself, unconfused and fully aware of what had transpired, he did as commanded, without question.

Bladeheart came into contact with his old, yet new commander, the newfound Lich King. Bladeheart was sent to Instructor Razuvious for training. Razuvious asked what he wanted, and Bladeheart told him who he was, and what he was there for. He was then ordered to denounce his name. Razuvious told him nothing about his life before mattered, now he is a blade of the Scourge war machine, and renamed him "Darkenheart" a mockery of his family name..

With that, the now dubbed Darkenheart went on to eradicate the Scarlet people of Tyr's hand with other Knights of the Ebon Blade. Eventually the destruction of the Scarlet Crusaders was finished, and the battle moved to Lights Hope Chapel, and fast. Darkenheart followed his superiors, Mograine, Thassarian, Koltira, and Orbaz Bloodbane, and proceeded to slaughter members of the Argent Crusade, until Mograines power waned, the coward Bloodbane retreated, and Tirion Fordring arrived to confront them all, and the Lich King himself whom had just appeared. The Lich King then revealed his plans that They were all just pawns, and he only wanted to corrupt Fordring. Tirion then went on to temporarily defeat and banish the Lich King, and recruited the Knights of the Ebon Blade into the Horde and Alliance. They then reclaimed Archerus Ebonhold for themselves, and Darkenheart and his new brothers and sisters were dispatched to be ambassadors for the Knights of the Ebon Blade and speak to Thrall. They then joined the horde, and though he was cursed even more with an even harsher existence, Darkenheart returned to the Undercity, to find himself new future.

He was then an adventurer for a full year, going on several exploits in Northrend serving the Forsaken Campaign, and his own traverses of getting back at the Scourge.Now he serves the Forsaken, but no longer with the Deathstalkers, after Varimathras turned traitor.

Now during this Cataclysm, He is alone, seeking out an existence worth existing in.
