In Warcraft 3, there was a Revenant named the Guardian who tried to stop Arthas from claiming Frostmourne. There is a resemble between Warcraft 3 Revenant and the Mawsworn especially the casters so I can’t help but wonder if the Guardian has something to do with the Mawsworn.

They are hateful undead creatures who are outside the domain of Ner’zhul’s control. Bonded to base elemental spirits, these phantom creatures live only to rage and use their powers for destruction.[2] They have the ability to cast elemental magics according to their type. Although undead, Revenants have no affiliation with the Scourge as they have some sort of innate immunity to Ner’zhul’s psychic control over undead. They remain neutral in the conflict between the Horde and Alliance.
But retroactively? Probably.
Additionally, I didn’t think they looked alike in my headmovies, but I went to actually look at the images and you may well be right on the money (again, retroactively speaking)
I like where you are going with this, but in my heart of hearts I think that it is most likely just a coincidence. I kinda doubt Blizzard’s story writers even remember that big spooky guardian that Arthas had to fight to gain Frostmourne, and it was most likely overlooked.
Would certainly be a nice touch.
