Line 110:
Leader of the Church of the Holy Light in Stormwind, and one of the foremost religious leaders of the Alliance. A student of the late Archbishop Alonsus Faol himself. As the archbishop, he appears to be a man of action, either fighting evil invaders himself or send adventurers to deal with the undead. {{spoiler|He turns out to be leader of the Twilight Hammer Cult after Cho'Gall's death, and is the Twilight Prophet spoken of by Fandral when he attacked Thrall.}}
-----
* [[Badass Grandpa]]: While not a physical combatant, his strength with Light and Shadow did not fade from age.
* [[Badass Preacher]]: You wouldn't think that the Warcraft equilavent to the Pope would be much of a frontline fighter, but he proves himself when he not only fights the elemental invasion of Stormwind, but also journeys to Wyrmrest in Northrend for the [[Final Battle]] in ''Cataclysm''.
* [[Bald of Awesome]]: Though hidden beneath a hood, and later a hat in ''Cataclysm''.
* {{spoiler|[[Beard of Evil]]: His long beard turns into this after his [[Face Heel Turn]]}}.
* [[Cassandra Truth]]: {{spoiler|Telling Bishop Farthing that Benedictus is a traitor will get you nowhere}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Casting a Shadow]]: He initially utilizes holy spells, but switches purely to shadow after his Twilight Epiphany}}.
* [[Cool Old Guy]]: Benedictus seemed to be an old and decent spiritual leader...
* {{spoiler|[[Deep-Cover Agent]]}}
* [[Despair Event Horizon]]: {{spoiler|Apparently the cause of his [[Face Heel Turn]]}}
* [[Dummied Out]]: He and Grand Magister Rommath were originally supposed to be confronted by their respective racial leaders and accused of treason. {{spoiler|His treason is actually revealed to the reader in ''Thrall: Twilight of the Aspects'' and he is actually unmasked in Patch 4.3.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Evil Old Folks]]: After his [[Face Heel Turn]]}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Fallen Hero]]: Head of the Church of the Holy Light and revered by its worshippers, but turned his back on them by joining the Twilight's Hammer}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Face Heel Turn]]}}: In ''Cataclysm''.
* [[Good Shepherd]]: {{spoiler|Obviously not beneath the facade.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Light Is Not Good]]: Still wields the Light despite his turn to evil}}.
* {{spoiler|[[The Mole]]: Uses his high position to further the Twilight's Hammer's goals}}.
* [[Nice Hat]]: Gains one in ''Cataclysm''.
* {{spoiler|[[One-Winged Angel]]}}: {{spoiler|One can arguably call his phase after his Twilight Epiphany spell as this.}}
* [[Retcon]]: In ''[[Thrall Twilight of the Aspects]]'', his first appearance {{spoiler|as a villain, he was actually the Twilight Father, and the Twilight Prophet was a seperate person.}} In 4.3, he {{spoiler|is referred to as the Twilight Prophet instead, and no mention is made of any Twilight Father.}}
* [[Saintly Church]]: {{spoiler|Benedictus himself is not, though}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Sinister Minister]]: Despite leading a [[Saintly Church]], following his [[Face Heel Turn]] he has no benevolent intentions and even uses his position for the sake of the Twilight's Hammer}}.
* [[Squishy Wizard|Squishy Priest]]
* {{spoiler|[[Villain with Good Publicity]]}}: {{spoiler|He appears to be absolutely worshipped by the people of Stormwind, and could easily deceive the entire populace and have them join the cause of the Old Gods if not for Varian's survival in his short story.}}
