Afterlife - Ristwor

Description

A failed experiment by Scourge scientists, that went missing from one of their hidden laboratories from somewhere in the vast Plaguelands after a Forsaken raid. The experiment's goal was to create a new breed of geists for the Lich King's armies. These new geists were planned to be special, made from captured individuals instead of collected, sewn-together corpses. The experiment went bad, halted, and eventually stopped. All the specimens were burned, but for some reason, this one was an exception. After the raid, this last remaining piece got under the hands and tools of the Apothecaries at the Undercity, who worked relentlessly for months to repair it. The work finally paid off, when they finished their new masterpiece, and saw what it is capable of. Though Ristwor is rather silent and blind, he can "see" better than others by being aware of life energies. He also became surprisingly good with blades, and is just as agile as normal geists. These ablilties make him an excellent tracker, and was just perfect for the Banshee Queen's operations. So Sylvanas sent him as a fifth member of the Five (hence the name). He mainly relies on orders, but he's not mindless. There are times he's showing some of his long-lost personality.

Experiments with humanoids always go bad.
Not that I have a problem with that.

Sounds like an interesting character. For some reason I always had a weakness for chars with a hidden face. It instantly makes them mysterious or something.
