Knight of Ashes

An enigmatic warrior who’s been wandering the known world challenging any warrior before him to honourable battle. The first report of the Knight’s appearance was March 620 K.C. barely a month after the Lich King’s death, a patrol of Horde soldiers from Agmar’s Hammer encountered a warrior clad in saronite armour wandering the Dragon Wastes. All but one of the patrol members were all quickly slaughtered when they engaged the Knight, the single survivor was believed to have been spared intentionally.

Since then the Knight of Ashes has appeared numerous times in several locations around the globe, including Pandaria. The corpses of his victims are quickly found and he seems to not even bother to try and hide the bodies. A solo survivor is always found, mourning over the bodies of their companions.

Strangely, several merchant caravans have reported contact with the Knight and survived. They claim that he appears suddenly on the road, mounted on a skeletal stead, his icy gaze quickly looks over the men and women of the group, before spurring his mount forward and leaving without a word.
