Biography
Kel'Thuzad was a human male who lived on Azeroth where he grew to adulthood by the time of the Second War. In time, he sat on the ruling Council of Six of the Kirin Tor that ruled the magical human kingdom of Dalaran.
He then returned to Lordaeron in disguise with his base of operations being the floating dread citadel of Naxxramas. In the span of 3 years, he used his fortune to gather a secretive brotherhood of like-minded men and women. This led to the formation of the Cult of the Damned that consisted of acolytes who were offered eternal life in exchange for service to Ner'zhul. With this force, Kel'Thuzad looked to pervert the faith in the Holy Light and instead offered an alternative in worship of the Lich King.
Under the Lich King's instructions, he personally oversaw the spread of the undead plague starting from the small town of Brill. His activities were discovered by Prince Arthas and Jaine Proudmoore thus forcing Kel'Thuzad to flee to Andorhal. Pursued to the settlement, he told Prince Arthas that the mastermind behind the plague was the demon Mal'Ganis that resided in Stratholme. In anger, Arthas hunted down and killed the necromancer though Kel'Thuzad warned that his death would mean little in the end.
