Legend of Lichemeister

Dieter von Drakenhof was born in rich and wealthy family of Gilneas nobility long before the First War. Drakenhof family controled most of the Gilneas peninsula, they were always second to the royal Greymane dynasty. Relations between two houses were always unpleasant. Both Drakenhofs and Greymanes disputed over the control of Kingdom. But as Greymanes were rightful rulers of Gilneas, Drakenhofs were left to plot against them on their own.
That was until Dieter was born.

Raised by his father as sworn enemy of Greymanes, he started showing his unimaginable cruelty in younger years, executing the servants, killing his own sister to prevent marriage between two houses and the upcoming alliance. When his father was trialed and sentenced to death for mutiny against the king, Dieter sworn the revenge, for many years known as "Butcher of Gilneas" he spread terror in the entire kingdom. Having his own peronal army of coldblood murders, he raided and pillaged the towns and villages, leaving nothing but death and mutilated corpses. He also started to practice witchcraft and worship pagan gods. His madness came to an end when he was betrayed by his own soldiers and handed to the Greymanes, where he was tortured for days by inquisitors of the Holy Light church and finally executed, buried in forgotten place...but it was not the end for him.

Many years later he has risen from his grave by Kel'Thuzad to become the champion of Lich King, he took a new name,
the Lichemeister to honour the dark lord and served him for many years aboard the Acherus, until he felt used by him only as a mere tool, feeling ignored by the Lich King he joined Highlord Mograine in his rebellion, now a new member of the Horde, he seeks a revenge against the people who tortured and killed him, the people of Holy Light.



OOC information
Class: Deathknight
Name: Lichemeister

I am old Defias Brotherhood Rper, been here since the creation of the realm, but on the Alliance side. I always wanted to Roleplay undead character even in time where Old Lordaeron guild had existed but unfortunately by that time playing both factions on PvP realm was impossible, I tried hard on other realms but honestly none of them has as good RP as Defias has. On Alliance side I am member of Dwarven Rifle Squad, and I hope that won't be a problem, because I would really like to join the Cult and have a great time RP as undead, that I've always wanted to have.

I disapprove of this application, the background story places the character's family in too great of a position within Gilneas, up to the point of controlling most of the Gilnean peninsula. Also, the attempt at marriage is forcing a lore-character's hand (as I presume any such marriage would need Genn's approval), and the hand of his son, Liam Greymane. There is no official lore about such an engagement ever having happened, and it should not be made.

It should also be noted that Gilneas, lorewise, has a strong and professional army, thus making the whole looting and pillaging on such a scale quite hard.
Also, Acherus isn't that old.

Therefore, I'll state once again, that I disapprove of this application, an act that should put you on hold until someone else either approves or disapproves of you.
You can also opt to retcon your lore and apply with the retconned lore.

To correct my IC application, maybe I made several lore mistake, Gilneas lore isnt that well known, at least now, not before Cataclysm, lets say that my character comes from less influencial familly and he was just a criminal who had a band of thugs under his command.

Leading bangs of thugs, he raided merchant caravans and pillaged the and villages, leaving nothing but death and mutilated corpses. He also started to practice witchcraft and worship pagan gods.

I hope that version is better, pardon for my previous mistakes, I have indeed, put myself in too high position. In this one, I come from one of many noble families.
Not as influencial as Greymanes but plotting against the King, then I become leader of a band of rebels, finally cought and executed...I hope that nothing is wrong with lore here...

Much, much better.

I interpret the raising as by agents of Kel'thuzad though, anyway, I figure you'll pass for an interview now.
