Personality

Rhogar is usually wary to show his proof of him being a Death Knight, but it is obviously hard to do that, having shackles and glowing blue eyes. He is not ashamed to wear the tabard of the Knights of the Ebon Blade, however. He treats most races with respect, as long as they show him the same respect. He believes in honor and will of course express that he believes in it. He is battle trained due to the training in Acherus, and carries his Runeblade with him everywhere. He is quiet and content when around strangers or people he doesn't trust, but with friends he is happy and loud.

History

When he was a young warrior, him and his brothers were patrolling the tribe, as they usually do. A few hours had drawn on, when Rhogar and his brothers heard a feint pounding. They looked around them, and saw a small raiding group of several feral Trolls. They were warned of this, and readied themselves immediately. Rhogar roared, jumping into battle immediately.

After fighting for a few long, long hours, few of Rhogar's brothers had fallen, as well as most of the Trolls. Rhogar was battling with one of the bigger Trolls, and had sustained several large wounds. He looked around at his fallen brothers, a low snarl ripped through him as he was overcome with rage and adrenaline. He 'wallrunned' up the Troll, grabbing onto the tusks as he wrenched them around, pulling them apart with all his might. When he heard a feint 'crack', he tightened his grip on them, and pushed off the Trolls face with a 'crunch' of the Trolls nose. As he jumped off, he did a twist, pulling the Trolls tusks clean off. He Troll roared in pain and outrage as Rhogar drove both tusks deep into it's rib, and right through the enormous heart. He continued fighting with with his brothers, gasping for breath.

Battling soon wore on Rhogar. He knelt there, drenched in blood and sweat. He looks up, seeing a mass of dead bodies, both his brothers and Trolls. He looked down at his hands, seeing the tusks, blackened with blood. He helped the few brothers that had survived, and began their trek back to the village. After being honored for saving his brothers and village, he was honored with the name 'Blacktusk', for his victory.

A few years after the battle with the Trolls, Rhogar left his tribe, and journeyed throughout Kalimdor, meeting fellow orcs, and learning their cultures. After a year or so of that, he took a sudden interest in Northrend, hearing stories and wild tales about it. He ventured there, wary of the strange people he was meeting.

After several days of traveling across the ocean on a Zeppelin, they arrived in the Howling Fjord. Traveling in a caraven for several hours, Rhogar became very tired. He soon fell asleep, only to be woken by strange voices. "Wake him up." He felt a sharp jab in his side. "W-What?" He saw a strange figure clad in dark plate armor with glowing blue eyes and pale skin. The last thing Rhogar saw was the butt of the mysterious figures sword ramming into his head.

The next thing he knows, his body is controlled by a force unknown. He slaughters innocents, burns villages, yet he can do nothing to stop it.

When he was training as a Death Knight, he would strive to be the best in his ranks, even if he didn't enjoy the work. He despised what the Lich King had done to him, not unlike almost all the other Death Knights, so he joined the Ebon Knights. He is honorable and proud, considering all he has done in the period of time he was mind controlled.

Through all of those agonizing, mind-controlled years of slaughtering, pillaging, and burning villages as a Death Knight, Rhogar held his sanity. After being released and joining the Knight of the Ebon Blade, he traveled to Ratchet in order to find some way to vent his rage and lust to battle.
