Judging from her height, the death knight is a mummified remnant of a powerful warrior, though the flesh has mostly come free from her animated bones.  Now, her heavy armor is all that holds her skeletal form together.  Her neck ends in a jagged ruin, but over the shattered fragments of her spine hovers a bleached skull that is wreathed in azure flames.  Fires burn malevolently in the skull's empty sockets.
