Orbaz Bloodbane, nicknamed the "Hand
of Suffering", is a death knight in the service of the Scourge.
History
He was first encountered in Acherus: The
Ebon Hold in the Scarlet Enclave. After N Death Knight Victory at Death's
Breach! He is relocated to the Scarlet Tavern. Upon discovering that there was
a courier coming from Hearthglen (How to Win Friends and Influence Enemies),
Orbaz, Thassarian, and Koltira Deathweaver were sent behind enemy lines to locate
him. He appears to be apathetic to the plight of any comrade who gets
him/herself captured and/or killed and still maintains old hatreds, as was the
case when Koltira was captured and held in the Scarlet Hold. After the Battle
for Light's Hope Chapel in N Death Knight the Light of Dawn, Orbaz flees when
the Scourge is defeated, thus remaining in Scourge service while Darion
Mograine and the others (including the players who took part) are freed from
the Lich King.
At some point, Orbaz killed Dahlia Suntouch
at the Ruby Dragonshrine.
Orbaz was apparently intended to lead a new
order of death knights, the Host of Suffering, based out of Malykriss: The Vile
Hold, a replacement for Acherus being built out of saronite. Seeking to derail
the plans surrounding the new necropolis, the Knights of the Ebon Blade send
out willing allies to disrupt saronite mining operations, destroy
infrastructure, and slay the intended leaders of the new order, ending with
Bloodbane himself in The Fate of Bloodbane.
Notes
Originally, Orbaz Bloodbane could be found
in the Ruby Dragonshrine in Dragonblight, but he was replaced by Duke Vallenhal
sometime during the alpha.
Relatives
It is possible that he is related to Baron
Bloodbane.
