Race of character/NPC: Lich (OOCly rolled as an Orc)
Class of Character/NPC: Necromancer/Lich (I would prefer this to be OOCly rolled as a Death Knight for the purposes of spell usage. I don’t expect that any of the model problems that come with the class will carry over, nor will any armor show on the model at all. If this is not permissible, then Mage is perfectly fine OOCly.)
Name of character/NPC: Grel’ka
Exact modelID requested: 30893 (Shrunk down to about .25, as the model is very large.)
Duration that character will be used: Temporary (for the duration of Hyjal and Twilight stuff, with the potential to survive past that)
Purpose for the character/NPC: This character was dreamed up as a way to explore Orcish society and history from a new perspective; namely, that of the Orcs who followed the ways of Ner’zhul to the bitter end and somehow remained alive, in some form or another, to tell the tale. As well, I was interested in exploring the mindset of an Orc who had lived through all phases of the original development of the Old Horde, and passed off into the Scourge’s developmental cycle, as well.
That aside, I want to use this character for any and all Twilight RP to happen throughout our exploration of Cataclysm and its metaplot.
Location the character/NPC will reside: Grel’ka, as a Twilight, will participate in any and all Twilight events, until her inevitable demise some time in the distant future. As such, she will float back and forth between all sorts of Twilight locations as needed.
Level requested (Must be a normal level; 1-85): 85
Any special equipment needed: A staff. Specifically, Malevolence. http://www.wowhead.com/item=65139

’’’Skills and Abilities’’’
Grel’ka is a very powerful Necromancer, first and foremost. Her powers with undead command are very strong, and she is often capable of commanding vast forces of simple undead. This has come from honing her talents for control over many years, combined with the fact that Lichdom has greatly expanded her powers. Her capabilities with other Necromancy spells are strong as well, and she has learned how to rot the flesh from the bones of her foes, and can even kill a foe with a powerful jolt of magic--though this sort of magic is extremely draining to her. However, this extent of power has come at the cost of almost all of her ability with standard Arcana; she has focused so heavily that there is very little left for her to perform within other schools of Arcane.
'''Age:''' 73 (51 at death)
'''Sex:''' Female
'''Hair:''’ No hair; Grel’ka is a skinless skeleton.
'''Eyes:''' Blue orbs sitting in bone-white sockets.
'''Scale/Height:''' .25
==Appearance==
'''Usual Garments/Armor:''' Grel’ka dresses almost exclusively in blues and purples, wearing a set of robes that are surprisingly well-maintained considering that she herself is not. She tends to take pride in her appearance, and will dress up as much as possible to show herself off. This is done almost ironically, as there really is nothing for her to show off. Besides her robes, she often carries a staff with her. Parts of it are made from Saronite. Crowning the top of it is a ram skull, with blue jewels mounted in the eye sockets.
It is worth noting that, if one ever saw it, her right leg is completely gone, from the hip down. It was sawn off in a painful accident, years ago.
==Personality==
Grel’ka is a rather self-centered woman; such happens to the persona after living for any length of time in a state of functional immortality. She often parades herself as if there were nothing better in this world than she. However, this is not to say that she is unwilling to put forth the effort to assist those around her; on the contrary, she feels as though, as a creature of power, it is her duty to display and use her power for power’s sake. More recently, she has come to care very little about the consequences of her actions. Indeed, she often considers these consequences to be foretold by the Old Gods, and therefore cares very little about their impact on others.
Grel’ka has spent much of her undead life working toward the goals of the Old Gods, whether she knew it or not. As such, for the past few years--the time she came into the full sway of the Old Gods--she has worked tirelessly to bring about their vision for the world. She has dedicated her life to assisting the Twilight’s Hammer cult in whatever ways possible to achieve their end-goals.
Through the years, Grel’ka grew into a very domineering person. She has become extremely aggressive as a person, no longer caring to deal with any individual’s complaints. She has become something of a twisted motherly figure, raising her figurative children--the cultists who rank beneath her--into good little men and women, prepared to die for the Cult. That is not to say that, while she is motherly, she cares about the cultists she works with; quite the opposite, as she would willingly throw them aside for her own selfish reasons, or the will of the Old Gods.
==History==
Grel’ka was born to a Shadowmoon Clan family, the second of a set fraternal twins. Because he showed much talent as a boy, her older brother, Shar’gam, was dedicated to a life of spiritualism and mysticism from a very early age. As such, Grel’ka was often left to her own devices and, while Shar’gam spent much of his time with the village elder Shaman, she spent most of her days out with her father, who was a hunter. Thus, Grel’ka invested her time into learning to hunt and prepare food just like her father did. Her practice and education culminated in her Om’Riggor at the age of 15, which had her track and kill an alpha male boar.
She chose an axe as her weapon for the job, and followed the beast and his pack for several days. She learned their patterns and, eventually, set up a trap. She wounded the boar, tearing up one of its rear legs. The crippled creature was abandoned by its followers in their panic, and was left to limp along and die. She ran it for the next several hours to tire it out and make it collapse. When it fell, she swooped in for the kill. The rest of the story followed typical lines; she completed her Om’Riggor and became a full member of her Clan.
Her life, from then on, consisted of hunting and preparing the meat of the creatures she hunted. She saw her brother grow, however, and became somewhat bitter as her life went on, wishing that she could have been in his place instead. She had always wanted to be more in-control of her own Clan, and craved the honor of serving the Ancestors. This clouded her sight and filled her with a bitter anger as the years went on. It followed such a similar path until she heard the call to battle from Ner’zhul himself against the Draenei.
She willingly went into the slaughter against the Draenei, believing every word she was told. The events that followed were horrible and despicable, but she never saw that truth until much later. She became one with her anger, and finally felt as though she had found a place. The Ancestors, by this point, had abandoned the Orcs. It never truly occurred to Grel’ka the consequences of what had happened. She never understood, until much later, that the Ancestors had left them alone to suffer in their squalor for their deeds against the Draenei.
After several years, the First War began as the Dark Portal first opened. She went to war with the rest of the Orcs, crossing through the Dark Portal to make war against the Humans. It was after she crossed the border that her fate was sealed, and the Old Gods’ influence that would drive her to her ultimate betrayal began. During her early days on the battlefield, she was separated from her squad in battle. She stumbled through the thick marsh of the lands the Orcs waded through, and fell through a crack in the surface. Her world flashed before her eyes, and she awoke at the bottom.
Her right leg was shattered, and she felt nothing in it. She didn’t know if it was because of too much pain, or something far worse. Her weapons had been scattered, broken, and too far from reach. The chamber she was in pulsed with a foreboding light, and she heard a faint echo coming from the attached corridor. To her, it was almost as if someone was speaking to her. She crawled off down that corridor, hoping to discover something. The further she crawled, the harsher the pulsing seemed to become, and the louder the echo became. With each pulse, her leg began to ache again, until it shot through with a stabbing pain unlike any she had ever felt.
The echo became a clear voice, and filled her head with terror. Thoughts of betrayal by her closest friends, and of her own death at the hands of her very own people. She lashed out, as the pain became too much to bear. Her hand, in the low light of the cave, fell upon the handle of an ancient weapon. She grabbed it and swung wildly at her leg, screaming in pain. She dragged herself along, one leg short, and passed out at the cave entrance. She was found and taken off the battlefield to be treated, and taken back to Draenor to recuperate.
It was too late for her at this point, as the voices of the Old Gods had already breached her mind, and she had accepted them in. Images were painted for her of her only path to salvation: the Warlock Gul’dan, and the Shaman, Ner’zhul. One man led to glory, the other to death. She desperately felt that she should reach for the path to glory, but didn’t know who to follow. On a whim, she finally chose to latch on to Gul’dan, and follow his ways.
When attempts to heal the wound failed, she was bandaged and sent back to the Shadowmoon Valley to wallow in her self-pity at her inability to attain the glory she felt so strongly that she needed. She knew she could not follow the path to her death, and so she chose to join Gul’dan’s school of Necromancy. With no prowess left in battle, she saw that her only path forward was to work with the more esoteric powers in an attempt to establish herself her path to ultimate glory.
Over the years, Grel’ka’s powers with Necromancy grew. She eventually left the school and joined the Shadow Council proper. She and her fellow Necrolytes began to use their powers to support the thinning ranks of the Orc armies, backing them with both extreme Necromantic might, and a burgeoning army of walking corpses to fill in the holes in the ranks. This strategy worked for some time, and eventually the tides of war turned, winning the fight for the Horde.
In the end, the Orcs set up a territorial holding consisting of the southern half of the continent through the Dark Portal. At this time, the Orc Doomhammer threw his coup against the Shadow Council, utterly destroying it and scattering it. He overthrew Blackhand and became the new Warchief. The doom of the Shadow Council and Gul’dan’s subjugation left Grel’ka shocked and without anyone to assist her any longer. She came to wonder if this was her damnation, and hoped that it was not too late for her to seek the proper path. Instead of following in the footsteps of the Shadow Council like some of the other surviving members of the Council, she fled to the safety of her clan, and became a follower of Ner’zhul.
By the end of the Second War--beginning when Doomhammer defeated Blackhand and took over the Horde--the Dark Portal had been destroyed, severing Draenor from Azeroth. Ner’zhul, being prodded by his followers, chose to eventually hunt down several artifacts of great power. When, some time later, he gathered the artifacts, he chose to tear open portals in order to try to find new places for the Orcs to conquer. Grel’ka followed him to the end, and into the portal he spawned. As she entered, everything turned white.
When she came to on the other side of the portal, she found herself in a snow-covered landscape. Such things were unheard-of in her land; snow never fell in the Shadowmoon Valley. She looked down at herself and noticed an unusual grey-ish tinge to her flesh. Her lungs had no need to fill with the frigid air any longer. She felt no hunger, and little pain from the bitter cold, despite not wearing winter clothing. She quickly came to the conclusion that she, herself, was no longer alive.
In this frozen place, the whispers in her head only grew stronger. This time, one of the voices in her head was declaring itself to be the Lich King, while the others still told of her glory at the end of the righteous path. She came to trust that the voices worked in tandem; she followed the instructions of the Lich King carefully, working to spread chaos and undeath across the frozen north. She did this because she felt that doing so would lead her down the path to the righteous glory she had been promised for so many years at this point.
When the first Liches arrived into the service of the Lich King, Grel’ka dedicated herself to the service of one of them, believing it to be the only way to obtain the Lich King’s true attention. In this Lich’s service she worked throughout the War of the Spider, aiding in the eventual destruction of the species. As the corpses of the Nerubians were risen into undeath, she too was raised to a new position within the Scourge hierarchy: she was ascended to Lichdom. The process was extremely painful for the woman, but her undead corpse rotted away at its conclusion, leaving a pile of bones held together by raw Arcane. Her soul was sealed away inside a jeweled pendant, and she hid it very carefully, never to be discovered.
With Northrend conquered and the Nerubian Empire crushed, the Lich King’s influence spread wide and far, turning almost every sentient creature on the wide continent into undead for his army. The Third War began, and the Lich King’s plans were set into motion. Overall, his plans for conquering Lordaeron were successful, but he suffered much throughout the course of it. Namely, Illidan’s assault on Icecrown greatly weakened the Lich King’s influence over some of his forces. During the Forsaken revolt that followed, Grel’ka felt his influence wane. She broke free from his will and felt the full impact of the voices of the Old Gods upon her. As such, she took her phylactery and followed the commands in her head, heading out of Northrend and south.
She went to the old continent of Kalimdor and met up with the Twilight’s Hammer cult in the south of the land. During this time, she worked with the cult to free C’thun from his prison. When this plot inevitably failed, she returned to Northrend to bolster the forces attempting to conquer Ulduar and free Yogg-Saron. Eventually, as the rise of Deathwing began and the Shattering occurred, she rejoiced in the coming demise of the world. She was transferred to Hyjal, working her way around the territory. Her powers were instrumental to the early successes of the Twilights, and there she still remains today. At Hyjal, Grel'ka has earned a position of leadership among the Twilights, performing important deeds in regard to heading the assault against Nordrassil.
