I actually like Lord of the North better than Warrior of Ice.

Thanks, glad you like the name Lord of the North, Ravinsild.

pigknight, aren't Blood knight and Dark Knight sort of redundant names? Dark Knight makes me think of the new Batman movie.... how much damage do the ghouls and flesh golem deal when they attack.

Dark Knight: It's a copy of the FF dark knight.
Blood Knight: I'll change it.
Lord of the North: Sure why not.
Summon damage: The hit entry in the power.

Arthas would approve...will the epic destiny have anything to do with the frozen throne?
lots of inspiration, lots of epic. you should buy and play the game just for that cut scene.

I think there could be an epic destiny for the Death knight, based off the Frozen throne, Doomsought. It could be Scion of the Lich King. Though, you know what happens in the end, right?

(This is Ravinsild) Unfortunately, as I thought he would, my DM fought me tooth and nail over being a Death Knight saying there is no way a Death Knight could be good or neutral, only evil.

As such, he proposed a stupid compromise, which actually turned into a full blown idea - instead of blood, death and ice, have it be an elemental knight that is Earth, Fire and Ice. It started off as just renaming things and changing a small bit of flavor, but as we developed them they came into a full blown class of thier own. I'm going to borrow your Death Knight for a little bit, but hopefully when I'm done our two works of art will be very distinguishable. Thanks for the inspiration!

1st) Death Knights are spellswords with necromancy and follow the Raven Queen for the most part. In my campain setting Death Knights are mostly (lawful) good Angsty McAngstersons.
2nd) Why is necromancy evil? Clerics do it all the time (Cure X Wounds, Raise Dead).

saying there is no way a Death Knight could be good or neutral, only evil.


take a look at some alliance quest text. WoW characters aren't evil. Yet they can play DKs ergo, that's a lame excuse.


That being said pigknight's version is still a work in process, which is a plenty good reason for a DM to say no.

Following his line of thought Death can't be neutral, because if death is neutral and you can make pacts with it, then you can just ask death or the Raven Queen to kill Orcus instead of fight him, or worse yet Orcus could make a deal with death to kill all good things, and by it choosing sides it would either have to become good or evil.

Even if it didn't choose sides simply having a character use such powers like death, blood and cold means that it harnessess things generally viewed as punishment - death is a punishment for going against God in the beginning - if you believe the bible as he does, thus as a punishment, death is bad, because death is not natural, we brought death to ourselves by defying God, therefore if you were to harness death and necromancy, as no necromancer he says, is good you'd have to be evil. The spark of "life" in the undead is generally from the negative plane (old D&D) and Orcus (who is the prince of evil) is ruler of the undead, and as such, anyone who harnessess death is in league with Orcus.

He makes things too complicated and can't just accept it as a good class...
