Dar’Khan Drathir.
Arguably a death knight, like the NPC in Acherus.
“Arguably” my foot he casts Warlocks spells.
He’s a necromancer, and he was raised by Arthas himself, with Frostmourne.

Poured a new scented candle by hand as a gift for a friend’s birthday tomorrow. This one succeeded a lot better than my previous one! I got the wick centered thanks to the advice given by @Levey from my last pour!

Highly depends, but generally they are their own type of undead.
Would an abomination made from only elven parts be considered a darkfallen though?
He’s not, and I have Sunwell trilogy around here somewhere too.

We all are, Obahar. We all are…
Dar’Khan Drathir, he isn’t a death knight. He’s more of a caster. There’s Lyandra Sunstrider and Lorash Sunbeam.
Yeah, not a death knight.
Edit: He is probably some kind of voidmancer, thinking about it. The void elves were studying his research, after all.

Yes, one hundred percent.
(I’m shading Blizzard for retconning the term.)
Still means he’s kinda the same category as Sylvanas, raised by the man himself. Or the San’layn.
I have feeling elves get special treatment in undeath and don’t just come back alive out of the blue. That might just be headcanon due to lacking example.
EDIT: Sort-of like at the Battle of Darkshore. Don’t think we have ANY other elf coming back alive and “sane” than the specifically raised dark rangers, do we?
Is sanity a criteria for being darkfallen?
Well there’s always the cursed ghosts of Aszuna or the risen dead of Black Rook Hold (not insane, just manipulated by a Dreadlord) if those Scourge-based examples are lacking.
So? Arthas raised a lot of people.
Lorash and Lyandra didn’t get any special treatment. Dar’Khan didn’t either beyond him having been raised by Arthas himself, who as stated raised a lot of people.
Because the story of these night elven dark rangers is Sentinels being raised.
I don’t think shambling corpses and skeletons of the death scar can be called “darkfallen”. There’s no reference there.
I was talking about Lord Bartholomew from Light’s Hope Chapel. I guess that makes TWO undead paladins! (Zeliek doesn’t even have lore, does he?)
Sir Zeliek’s lore is being sad.

You are right in so far that we don’t know if all of them are elven undead, but any undead elf is a Darkfallen. It’s a name for any and all undead elves.
Leonid Bartholomew was a paladin in life, but in undeath he is a warrior.

Ah! That makes so much more sense! I was genuinely always confused as to why he was a forsaken paladin! x)
I mean, you’re not wrong…
