Avarius Dawnstorm

====Physical Traits====
“Not because I am greedy, obviously.”
The death knight emanates an icy-cold chill that pierces the air about him. Tall, powerfully built and remarkably well preserved, his pinched, bloodless skin and colourless hair are the only immediately obvious signs of his undeath. His ageless face is chiselled, symmetrical and surprisingly mark-free; his sculpted cheekbones and regal, almost-aquiline nose barely show signs of previous trauma.
His throat bears a long, poorly healed scar that runs in a downward slash from left to right across the entirety of his anterior neck. This is rarely seen, for he has a tendency to wear platemail that covers it.
If he is ever seen unarmoured, large pale blue runes - freezing cold to the touch - are carved across his upper chest and across his shoulder blades. One also encircles each of his upper arms and thighs. Various scars of battle are scattered across his torso, and a few across his limbs.
His typically reverberating voice carries a harsh quality, though his tone is generally detached. His drawling, almost lazy way of speaking sets him apart from all but the most sardonic of death knights, even if he is not.

====Observations====
Unlike the rest of his peers who mostly developed into brooding stereotypes, or the rare few who managed to recover or remember their personalities in life, Avarius belonged to the group of Knights who retained their stoicism created by their undeath. He looked back on his deeds in the echelons of the Scourge with logical acceptance: the past had, after all, already taken place, and there was therefore little use in punishing himself for it.
At most times, he is expressionless. At others, he is either perplexed, or carries an expression of detached curiosity. His interest in things around him - including the ways of the living - could be described as clinical. He had also been described to be almost robotic in his demeanour, and has an almost-annoying habit of matter-of-factly stating the obvious in any given situation, whether or not it is socially appropriate to do so.
