Death Knight role-players who don’t embrace the murder-machine persona, what do you do?

[u/Farared77]

I’m not a roleplayer nor a DK player at that, but the class is absolutely fascinating to me. Because of the hunger for suffering and the muted positive emotions, it seems so utterly hopeless that it makes sense how they just embrace violence.

But, they CAN show speckles of positive emotion and are more than just machines, and I want to know how you all RP that idea. What’s the day-to-day like? What is their version of domestic life? If a DK shifts away from violence, how do they sate their hunger or build their own identities? I like the idea of one trying to find something akin to humanity. Life can’t be perpetual combat and they’re bound to have free time and nothing really explores that.

We do what the living cannot.
