Name: Nzorah the (Ravager? Plague? can't decide on what this should be. Any ideas?)
Age: "Died" over 3,000 years ago
Race: Undead
Class: Necro Warrior
Religion: Serves whatever creature summons him. But mainly serves Lolth.
Appearance: All skin and body is decayed and rotten. Most of his face is bone. His body has many different parts sewn together, the parts are of dead warriors, mages, and other things, including animals. His eyes glow a pale white. He has no hair. Seeing how his body is sewn together body parts, his build is slightly bulky, but strong and very tall. In his chest there is an exposed, glowing, purple orb that holds his soul and replaces his heart.
Background History: Nzorah was a holy crusader of an unknown leader. But he was corrupted by Lolth and became one of her dark crusaders. He was captured by a Necromancer scientist, who experimented on his body. He died in the process, and what was left of his body was dumped on an altar of Lolth.
Dark priests found him and recognized him, they tried to revive him, but his body could not survive after the experiments. Lolth soon created the orb holds his soul, and gave it to the priests to revive Nzorah.
After rebuilding his body they place the orb that held his soul on the body and the two joined. Nzorah was once again alive, or as alive as he could be.
After hours of screaming in pain, he devoted himself to the gods for bringing him back. Which allowed him to hunt the Necromancer that killed him.
Items: He wears old beaten up armor. The armor has many dents, but is thick enough protect his body.
Weaponry: Jagged sword, able to poison others. It is a very painful poison that weakens the afflicted.
The blade was given these effects after killing a genetically altered spider, that was considered an abomination, the blade was covered in it's blood/venom, giving it the effects.
Skills or Powers: Able to regenerate and put his body back together his rotted body, to a certain point. After practicing necromancy, he can reanimate the dead.
Physical Weakness: Light magic and holy objects/land. And he will begin to crumble if his magic orb is removed.

Sounds to me, like you're trying to re-create Arthas here.
May I ask, what kind of a god would give armour to a rotten corpse?
You'd think some of you would realize this by now, that we always ask to specify the powers and origins of magical items (even though we're quite against magical artifacts in the first place).
"Dark/Necromancer arts" doesn't exactly specify what exactly can he use. List these powers and their desciptions, please.

Arthas? The Lich King from WoW?
I was really thinking about a Flesh Atronach.
And about the armor. He used to be a dark crusader for Lolth, for a long time, so I figured he had gathered a few special items. But I edited that out anyway, because you have a good point.
By magical items, do you mean the orb that holds his soul and allows him to "live"?

Chandranath Faolan Arthas? The Lich King from WoW? I was really thinking about a Flesh Atronach. And about the armor.

By magical items, do you mean the orb that holds his soul and allows him to "live"? Pretty much identical storyline to Arthas I'm afraid, but the corrupted good guy turned into undead lich/warlord idea is much more common than just in WoW, and lots of people come up with it. There's nothing wrong with the concept, you should just be aware that it is a classic storyline which is reused a lot, and people may make assumptions about where you are drawing the character from. By magical items we generally mean every single magical item - where did they come from? The orb you've obviously explained, what still concerns me is the sword that would allow him to turn any character, whether NPC or player, into one of a horde of undead unless they get magical treatment. This seems just a touch overpowered.
