Appearance

Usual Garments/Armor: Daliah seems happy enough to wear anything, as long as it's clean. As such her clothing is usually changed between a few worn, slightly ragged looking outfits, leather or cloth, patched and frayed most of the time. On occasion, she can be seen in her former Armour of the Ebon Blade, though never for any extended period of time.

Other: Daliah is unusually tall, as if someone stretched out the average sized blood elf, with a long neck and slightly gangling arms. Yet her height does nothing to make her look intimidating, as her frame looks quite slender, and only faint signs of muscle lie on her arms, from wielding a blade. What makes her appear intimidating, is the way she rarely seems to blink, and often has a crooked smile playing on her lips, as if she isn't quite all there.

Personality

Daliah is, in many respect's, quite insane, as a result of saronite poisoning, having lacked the shelter of undeath to protect her from its mind poisoning effects since leaving, and the fall of, the lich king, combined with seeing some rather horrific sights, that seem to have entirely desensitized her to pity, and to violence. She is quite child-minded in her approach to the world, viewing people and creatures as playthings rather than living beings.

When push comes to shove, however, she is quite the coward, as such she is often trying to find someone to hide behind as a shield, always looking for the bigger bully to ally with.

She is sociopathic, and sadistic, though her reasoning only seems to be that she has difficulty discerning between right and wrong, so instead, she simply acts based on what is most appealing to her at any given moment. She often acts like she has a romantic, or overly friendly connection to everybody, despite the fact that in almost every case, she doesn't.

History

Daliah lead a sheltered life in her youth, being an only child with overprotective parents, she became quite reserved, and quite naive to the dangers of the world. As a priestess, she signed up to serve as a medic in the third war, though in the scourge invasion of Silvermoon, she, among a group of others, pledged their allegiance to the scourge in cowardice, rather than facing death and reanimation.

After 7 year's of training within the ranks of the scourge, giving her will freely to the lich king among the other's forced into his servitude, she was given the "honor" of becoming a death knight, being trained to fight alongside the reanimated death knights for the battle of light's hope chapel. Of course, in the end she discovered that she was simply being used, as with the other death knights in the battle of light's hope chapel, as such she, among the survivors of the battle, broke free of the lich king's controll, and feigning innocence, claiming to have been under the mind control of the lich king, she joined with the Ebon Blade to take down the lich king.

Though, karma seemed to be taking effect. While the truly undead death knights were immune to the mind poisoning effects of saronite, she was not,as such she did not have a resistance to the mind-affecting effects of wearing saronite Armour, and wielding a saronite weapon, and slowly, she began to lose her mind, her sanity fracturing through a combination of guilt for betraying her people to save her own life, and the effects of saronite poisoning.

She felt her sanity was at it's breaking point, she was already beginning to hear voices in her mind, and in desperation, she fled the Ebon Blade, going into hiding for a year, before, outcast from her own people from her tainted blue glowing eyes, and also from the Ebon Blade as a deserter, she began a new life, eking out a living in the more depraved corners of the world, trying to reclaim her former sanity.
