Dejt

Dejt is troll Death Knight that currently resides in Silvermoon City. Due to his surprisingly massive height and larger than average build (for his race), it doesn't tend to be very hard to spot him in a crowd. Not a whole lot is known about Dejt's early years, at least not publicly. Dejt is mostly known as the founder and Commander of the Covenant of Shadows, also nicknamed the Forbidden Covenant.

Dejt is also known for his sadistic, dominant and overall cruel nature. He despises the Alliance with a passion, as well as anyone he considers worthless and weak. Dejt has even publicly spoken out against the Horde, just after leaving the Warsong Outriders, stating that he thought the Horde was becoming weak and cowardly, arguing that the Horde did not do enough to fight or defend itself against the Alliance.

Another trait of Dejt is that he doesn't speak with a trollish accent like most of his race do.

Appearance

 * Height: 9'1"
 * Weight: Estimated around 390 lbs.
 * Build: Well toned/muscled.
 * Hair: Purple.
 * Eyes: Ice-y blue, just partially visible under the blue glow of his eyes.

Even with a disguise, Dejt isn't hard to find in a crowd. He stands much taller than an average troll, and is slightly more muscled than most males of his race, probably due to his extensive battle experience and his part-Drakkari background. His blue body is covered in dozens of scars, which can be found at just about any spot on his body as well as his face. His facial features could definitely be considered handsome by troll standards, though his features look rather strained and exhausted.

The troll's hair is usually braided (or in dreadlocks) and pulled back into a ponytail that is tied up, although several strands of hair usually fall over one side of his face. Dejt also keeps himself surprisingly clean, and seems to actually care about his appearance, except for when he's out on a mission.

Dejt tends to wear two types of attire when he's out. Most often Dejt can be found in dark colored plate armor, stating that he always likes to be prepared for a fight. Otherwise, Dejt does appear to like dressing up, and his clothing often resembles the type of attire a Blood Elf would wear. One strange piece of attire that Dejt always wears is a pair of plate-covered boots, unlike most of his race whom prefer to be barefoot.

If it wasn't for the blue aura that radiated from his eyes, the trademark of a Death Knight, it'd be extremely difficult - if not impossible - to tell that Dejt was a Death Knight. The troll's body has no signs of decay in the slightest, and Dejt's form is even warm to the touch. While it's uncertain how (at least publicly), Dejt even appears to have a working, beating heart. When inquired, Dejt will usually simply joke about only being half-dead. When serious, Dejt has mentioned someone by name of Esten, though it's unknown who this individual is, or how he could have effected Dejt's body. While his body does appear to work, Dejt claims that it is merely a luxury and he does not need his heart to beat in order to live. Because he is only "half alive", Dejt appears to very rarely need to eat or drink, nor does he appear to sleep often, which could explain why the areas underneath his eyes are often dark.

Alive and Free
Most of Dejt's history appears to be kept under lock and key, except for anything after his arrival in the Horde. However, it is clear that Dejt didn't always have such a dark personality like he does now.

After being freed from the Lich King's grasp, Dejt eventually found his way into Kalimdor. Suffering from amnesia, Dejt wandered aimlessly across the land before being ambushed by a group of members belonging to the Horde. Subdued and bound, Dejt was brought back to Orgrimmar, mistaken as a Death Knight who was still loyal to the Lich King. Originally planned to be executed, Dejt was eventually freed after it was made clear that he was no longer under the influence of the Lich King.

Although free, Dejt was without a home and without gold, his only belongings consisting of the armor and clothing he wore, along with his two handed blade. For a month or two, Dejt slept in the streets and in the wild, trying to find anything that would return his lost memories. Meanwhile, Dejt started to train once more, and soon began to take jobs that allowed him to put his fighting experience to work. The more money he earned, the better gear and equipment Dejt obtained, and occasionally would rent out a room in an inn or the like.

After several months of training and fighting, Dejt got a break one day and caught the eye of one of the high ranking officers of the Horde forces of Warsong Gulch, the Warsong Outriders. While Dejt was first hesitant to join when he was offered a low ranking position within the group, it didn't take long for him to accept.

The Warsong Outriders
Dejt was put to work only a day after he was brought into the Warsong Outriders. Not only did Dejt work to defend Warsong Gulch, he also accepted various jobs from the Horde for the Outriders. With each job he completed, his reputation grew more and more, especially due to the fact that he had yet to fail a job or disappoint anyone.

Dejt took and completed work for the Horde and the Outriders almost daily, enough that it started to become almost hard to find work. It wasn't taking long for Dejt to rise through the grunt ranks of the Warsong Outriders either, considering all the praise he was getting for his skill in battle and his loyalty to the Horde. Months after joining the Warsong Outriders, he was promoted to the rank of an officer within the group.

At first, Dejt did well as an officer, commanding small tasks groups to complete larger scale jobs for the Horde. Dejt also had re-learned how to interact with people. Despite being a Death Knight, Dejt started to become known for his surprisingly kind personality, his skill on the battlefield and as well as his ability to be a successful leader. He continued to lead highly successful campaigns with minimum to no causalities, although the teams he led remained relatively small in size. However, several months after his promotion, things began to change.

Word reached the officers that one of their groups had been ambushed at the Crossroads by a group that was supposedly made up of members of the Alliance. Dejt became furious when his superior officers decided to hold off from sending a team in just yet. When it became clear that he wasn't going to be able to change their minds, Dejt sped off towards the town. Upon arriving, it was clear that most of the damage had already been done. Bodies of both members of the Horde, and some Alliance, lay inside and outside of the Crossroads. Quickly Dejt searched the area, only to find one member of the Outriders left. An older female orc, who had served as Dejt's teacher in the Outriders, was severely wounded and fighting off two humans that had remained behind. Dejt quickly intervened and took care of both of the humans before attempting to help his teacher. Unable to help the orc heal, as she had already been mortally wounded, Dejt was only able to hold the orc and keep her company until she passed away.

Dejt was clearly devastated by the blow and the loss of his teacher, not to mention the handful of others that he knew personally. Not long after the events, Dejt began to noticeably change. He was never the same again.

Remembrance
After the ambush of the Crossroads, Dejt began to change. Several weeks afterwards, Dejt started to become irritated easily, and often acted cold towards others, especially higher ranking officers. His personality almost appeared to becoming darker, becoming worse and worse with every week that past. Dejt especially began to constantly push at the higher ranking officers, demanding that the Outriders should branch out and go on the offensive against the Alliance, due to the fact that the ambush group was made entirely of members of the Alliance. He became furious with each time his requests were denied.
