'''Pestilence''' is a [[Death Knight]] ability that allows the Death Knight to spread his [[Frost Fever]] and [[Blood Plague]] from one target to other nearby targets within 10 yards. The major [[Glyph of Disease]] causes it to refresh the duration of diseases on the primary target before they are spread to the other targets. The minor [[Glyph of Pestilence]] can increase the range of spreading diseases by 5 yards. It costs 1 [[Blood Rune]] to cast.

'''Frost nymphs''' are a race that have apparently evolved from [[dryad]]s,<ref>''[[World of Warcraft: The Magazine Volume 2 Issue 1]]'', pg 92</ref> which they may also be known as,<ref name="The Enigmatic Frost Nymphs"/> and are found in cold regions, such as [[Northrend]].<ref name="The Enigmatic Frost Nymphs">[[Quest:The Enigmatic Frost Nymphs]]</ref>

Frost nymphs are a frosty subrace of dryads. They are very playful and frolic around the frozen woods of Northrend and have snowball fights. They also, like dryads, care deeply about their forest homes and natures splendors and will viciously protect it from any harmful force that arrives into their territories. Frost nymphs are also very friendly to those who help them and their lands and will ask for help from the toughest of travelers. They also retain a strong relation with [[night elves]] like their dryad cousins and have the same body shape of a woodland animal and a night elven woman.
