"...You've been following in my footsteps all along!"
So here it comes.
I've been holding it back, waiting to unleash the crazy that is my excitement for the World of Warcraft expansion: Wrath of the Lich King. To further add to the crazy, I'm extremely excited about the new Death Knight Hero class. I'm not excited about just playing a Death Knight, but more about the lore and myth behind the character.
As a long time Warcraft fan, I have always held Arthas as my favorite of the characters - partly the reason my first character was a paladin - because he was such an interesting character. His interaction with the other characters of the story always left him in a love/hate position for me. I could never decide if he was good and just misguided, or truely was an evil person. I always questioned if he had *spoiler* become one with the Lich King because of the greed for power, or to make sure that kind of power could be somewhat contained. Yes, I do know about Frostmourne and blah, blah, blah; but I always enjoyed trying to rationalize the motives behind his actions.
As such, I've always wanted to be a Death Knight because I felt it could give me a real sense of the type of power and mentality behind Arthas and what he dealt with as Frostmourne gained more and more control over him. I won't lie, they also look awesome to play in general and I looking forward to being able to understand the "runeblade mechanics" that, from what I understand, power the majority of their abilities. As with everyone else, I can only wait in anticipation for the expansion to get an official release date; then, obsess until that date finally comes when I can enjoy the bounty of the new content.
