Other: Munix's axe is called Silvercleaver. It is a custom-made weapon with a connection to it's owner forged through enchantment and magic. The axe is effectively enchanted to work as a boomerang, giving Munix a long-range weapon, albeit he has yet to learn how to hurl it accurately.

Personality

Alignment: Lawful Good

Cheerful, easygoing, noble, loyal and calm are the best ways to describe Munix. He is usually gentle and tries to help anyone, regardless of race, as the three tenets command.

Following the tenets to heart, Munix shows little to no racism, although he is still a dwarf, and may occasionally throw about the dwarven joke. This tends to happen often when he drinks.

In battle, Munix fights with the knowledge of a warrior and the experience of a century. Quick to adapt to hit-and-run or flanking tactics, he isn't afraid to employ any means necessary to destroy an adversary he views as evil. Against an honorable enemy, however, he fights fair, being both unable to call the Light and unwilling.

History

Born in peaceful times, Munix was the son of two priests, and such, was shipped off to the nearest monastery at a tender age. Raised by the coalition of priests that raised all the adopted children of his church and took care of them all equally.

The first years of Munix' life were relatively peaceful and fun. The man learned how to master the Light and how to use it to tend and look after the wounded, as well as shielding them from harm. Banishing evil, however, was what appealed to him the most. The ability to destroy and exorcise demons was to him the true road to peace - After all, if the problem ceased to exist, so would it's consequences.

After studying those arts for sixty years – as he learned about the Light from the time he could walk – the First War arrived. When priests were requested to aid the war effort, he immediately applied as a healer, sitting on the back, away from the battle. When they lost, he fell back with the other humans, and managed to survive. Uther Lightbringer then formed the Knights of the Silver Hand, Munix was sure to follow. However, he did not stick around for long. It wasn't long after learning how to be a basic paladin – through the use of auras, like the original members of the silver hand – but to Munix, the formation of the Silver Hand simply proved the Light's limitless potential. What if one could use it to transcend further?

Munix fought as a paladin with the Knight of the Silver Hand, but left as soon as the Second War ended, to study the Light's mysteries. He remained to his church ever since, studying and learning how to transcend the basic training of a paladin.

Years passed and Munix became a weapon of justice. When he left his training, the Lich King's armies were upon Northrend, and he put his new skills to test. He accepted no promotion and chose to fight no greater battle – Helping the wounded with his basic first aid and herbalism skills as well as fighting the undead too close to camp sufficed.

But the war ended, and Munix returned to the Eastern Kingdoms, where the threat of the scourge remains. Vowing to destroy their menace once and for all, the dwarf took up arms to find those willing and worthy to battle at his side.

Skills and Abilities

- The light Munix calls upon is silver, not golden.

- While unable to use the light besides a very basic and weak healing spell. He cannot resurrect others, and he can't ever heal himself in any way.

- Due to his affinity to the Light, Munix boasts a high resistance to poison and diseases. However, due to this, he's also immune to healing and mana potions, making them useless to him.

- In exchange for his abilities as a paladin, Munix instead uses his Light to empower himself. When active, Munix's body is empowered with the Light, boasting his physical strength as well as his natural healing, and the effect of healing spells on him.

- As an addition, his attacks are considered of "holy" property, and so is his armor and body.

- However, keeping this mode active is much of a strain. Not only becoming unable to use any other paladin skill, Munix becomes effectively unable to cast even his most basic heal spell on this mode, and he cannot activate it against someone who isn't "Evil". Being bound by the tenets, Munix becomes temporarily (this can range from days to weeks) unable to activate this mode in case he breaks one, even if unknowingly. If he witnesses fel and does not, at the very least, voice complaint against it, he also becomes unable to activate this mode until the person is dealt with accordingly.
