The Death Knight Death Knight Gameplay Death Knight Interview Death Knight Lore
World of Warcraft The Death Knight
The fearsome death knight, World of Warcraft's first Hero class, is not your average adventurer seeking to prove his or her worth on Azeroth's fields of battle. No longer servants of the Lich King, they begin their new calling as experienced, formidable adversaries, heavily armed and armored and possessing an arsenal of deadly and forbidden magic learned in the Lich King's thrall.
To create a Death Knight you must have one character on your account that is level 55 or above.
