Death Knight - Nidhogg's Chosen - Níðhöggrs Valdir (neeth-hogrs val-deer)

Nidhogg's Chosen, fearsome warriors created by the god of darkness, Nidhogg, to serve as his agents of destruction and control in the mortal realm. These formidable beings are not simply undead, but rather imbued with both the essence of darkness and the remnants of their mortal souls, making them uniquely powerful and driven. Origin: Nidhogg, the god of darkness, sought to create an elite force of warriors that would further his influence in the world and strike fear into the hearts of mortals. To create his loyal soldiers, Nidhogg sought out the souls of fallen warriors who had shown exceptional skill, ambition, and ruthlessness in battle. He offered them a second chance at life, but in exchange, they would be bound to his will and become his Chosen.
Creation: The process of creating a Nidhogg's Chosen is done within the realm of darkness, it involves a dark ritual that combines the chosen soul with the essence of darkness, infusing the individual with Nidhogg's power. The ritual also involves the use of a unique, dark mineral called Umbranite, which is found only in the deepest depths of the earth, close to the god's domain. Umbranite is used to forge the armor and weapons of the Nidhogg's Chosen, further enhancing their connection to Nidhogg and their dark abilities.
Appearance: Nidhogg's Chosen appear as heavily armored warriors shrouded in an aura of darkness. Their armor, forged from Umbranite, is a deep, midnight black, adorned with intricate, shadowy runes that glow with a sinister, dark energy. Their eyes emit an eerie, dark glow, hinting at the power that lies within them.
Abilities: Nidhogg's Chosen possess enhanced strength, agility, and resilience, allowing them to engage in combat with an almost supernatural level of skill. They are also adept at wielding dark magic, channeling the essence of Nidhogg to unleash devastating spells and curses upon their enemies. The Chosen are able to command and manipulate shadows, using them to conceal themselves, teleport short distances, or create illusions to disorient their foes.
Weaknesses: Nidhogg's Chosen, despite their immense power, are not without weaknesses. They are particularly vulnerable to divine or light-based magic, which can sear their dark essence and weaken their connection to Nidhogg. Additionally, their dependence on their god's power can be exploited; if they are somehow severed from Nidhogg's influence or if their connection to the god is disrupted, they may lose their abilities and be left vulnerable.
