Korven the Prime

Korven the Prime is a mantid located at Klaxxi'vess. He is the first Paragon of the Klaxxi and the one who mastered the art of using amber to preserve the Mantid's greatest warriors. This mastery also extends to his fighting style, which uses magic based around amber to harm others and protect himself from death.
==Biography==
Korven the Prime was the first of the Klaxxi to become a paragon, having first suggested the idea, and invented the preservation chamber that utilizes kypari amber to enable the preservation process. Not only that, but he was also known for his prowess on the battlefield; such was his skill that it was said that he could cheat death itself. He was thus bestowed with the title of "Prime".
As the creator of the process, Korven knew that the sustaining properties of the amber, while it would last for generations, is in fact finite, and the preserved subject runs the risk of death if not released from stasis before the power of the amber is depleted. However, he also felt that the potential gain, namely protecting their species, outweighed the risks.
During the development of the chamber, Korven carefully documented his work, which apparently was kept for posterity. The later paragon Kaz'tik the Manipulator used the extensive notes to create his own modified version to preserve Kovok, his kunchong.
Before he was chosen to become the first paragon, Korven was given the honor of planting Kypari Zar. He apparently has a certain fondness for this tree, and after being revived he takes steps to ease its suffering once he discovers that it is dying.
When freed, he offers the Painkillers augmentation, a buff that brings you to full health upon being hit with a fatal attack.
Some time later after he was awakened by the :Wakener, he joined Garrosh, who obtained the heart of Y'Shaarj, in the Underhold.
