The one that says Lord Waycrest?
What makes you think so?

Worgens are immune to the undead thing

Actually that's Lord Waycrest

[CasualFilth]

No way will they kill Genn. He's like the 2nd or 3rd Alliance character with the most fanboys...

Looking on my iPhone so none of the pictures have labels.

It's Lord Waycrest, like the others have said and he's the big dude in Drustvar. Except he's kinda... not. Anymore. Anyway, he's probably the Drustvar Dungeon Boss.

Apparently everyone in trench coat is genn greymane.

Nathanos is Greymane.

At the very least we can say that a Forsaken raid on the royal Gilnean fashion burreau took place during their attack on Gilneas.

Trenchcoat is a cool thing tho

Except for that part where there's undead Worgen in the form of Death Knights.

Worgen are immune to the Forsaken's Val'kyr. So are all non-Human races.

And I am needed here to keep the balance.

Actually it was the fur covered arm that made me think it might have been.

If I remember correctly only the Lich King could raise worgen death knights.

It's never specified, afaik. The Lich King did not raise every Death Knight personally; Razuvious was the one picking through the corpses with a handful of necromancers in Acherus. Even were it the case that all worgen Death Knights were raised by the Lich King personally, that only implies that they are more resistant to, not immune to, undeath.

Worgen are resistant to the Plague of Undeath as they are all normal and magical diseases, but their corpses can still be raised into undeath and their wills bent by Necromancers of suitable skill (of which the Lich King would certainly qualify). Being slain by one of the Scourge or anything else afflicted by the Plague of Undeath isn't going to spread to the Worgen - their natural resistance trumps that kind of passive conversion. But acted on directly they're still as vulnerable as any other race when it comes to undeath, and insofar as we know there is no mortal race in the Warcraft universe that is patently immune to the state of undeath itself.

Well, he's still big and most likely still in Drustvar. Wether he still qualifies as a dude i don't know.

Do you happen to have the source for worgen immunity to the Plague of Undeath? It wouldn't hurt to have the next time someone says worgen can't be risen into undeath.

It's during the Silverpine quest, the citizens on Fenris Isle actual want to become Worgen to escape the Forsaken curse.

Also Blizzard explicitly stated that the reason Worgen can become DK is BECAUSE of Arthas/Lich King being so powerful in Necromancy.

Why are humans who drink the blood of worgen unable to be raised as Forsaken?

Not only are the Val'kyr less powerful than the Lich King when it comes to raising the undead, but the worgen curse also makes raising them into undeath far more difficult than it is for normal humans. The worgen curse has roots in both the Emerald Dream (through the wolf Ancient, Goldrinn) and the holy power of the goddess Elune. In addition, those worgen who imbibe the waters of Tal'doren—through the ritual they undergo to maintain balance between the worgen curse and their humanity—have a further resistance to the corruption of undeath.

This was asked and answered in a dev q&a.
