Talk:Lucius Von Hellghast

Normally it's said that Paladins are immune to the Plague. Morgan Ladimore (Mor'Ladim) was a different case due to him forsaken the tenents of the Light and at the horror of his own acts killed himself and thus condemned himself to never finding peace. The Scarlet Highlord Mograine (though I'm not quite sure if he was in fact a Paladin) appears to have been turned Undead by the terrible betrayal of his son.

So, perchance this Lucius von Hellghast never truly was a Paladin after his mother's death? Or some other reason?

Technically I think the undead in Darkshire have nothing to do with the Plague at all -- they've been raised by necromancy, either Morbent Fel or the bloke in the shed (I vaguely recall there being other instances of paladins being explicitly raised from the dead, but specifics escape me). I'm moderately sure the Plague never came that far south.

Yes, that's why I classified Morgan Ladimore as an entirely different case, since his terrible crime with killing the graveyard overseers was the cause for his suicide and consequent fall from Paladinhood, which became the reason for his Undeath.

As for Paladins having been raised from the dead as Undead, then I'd speculate that they'd have been a similar case as Morgan Ladimore, meaning that they must've failed as Paladins, being abandoned by the Holy Light, which would enable any necromancer, i.e. the Lich King, of being able to turn them into Undead.

My speculation, therefore, is if it is possible that this is the same with the case of Lucius von Hellghast?

Purely speculation, IMO. Paladins are immune to the Plague, but there's no indication that they're immune to necromancy in general. In fact, there's some indication that they *aren't*, given that various necromancer mobs can still harm them normally.

In regards to all your Hellghast characters, could you do me the favour of adding at the bottom the categories of your characters relating to their ooc faction, ooc race and ooc class, please? If they don't exist as characters in-game please add at the bottom. Thank you. -- Richeron

I'll be sure to add the catagories of my characters at the bottom of them. Sorry for not doing so before as i am a little new to the whole Wiki thing. As for Lucius, when i came up with the whole thing i was thinking that Lucius was a Paladin in his teenage years up to the age of twenty. After that he distaned from training and his holy powers for the rest of his life, possibly causing his connection to the Holy Light to wane and grow weak. Because of this Lucius' Paladin immunity to the Plague waned and grew weak to, which is how the Plague managed to infect him. -- Ezekiel40000

Thank you for clarifying this. And don't worry about being new. Rich had to go through my first profile as well. *grin*
