Lore

“I saw you being born. I helped you come into this world, and I helped you leave it... and now, by my hand, you are reborn.”

— Thoughts of Arthas Menethil

Invincible was the steed of  Arthas Menethil, both in life and death. He was the skeletal horse that Arthas rode throughout Warcraft III, though his name was first introduced in Wrath of the Lich King, and his backstory in the novel Arthas: Rise of the Lich King.

Invincible was born to the mare Brightmane on the Balnir Farmstead in Tirisfal Glades, in the winter of the year Stormwind fell. At Jorum Balnir's invitation, Prince Arthas—then nine years old—assisted in the foal's birth. The moment he met the foal's eyes, Arthas felt a bond between them and knew that the horse would become his mount and inseparable friend. Although he wasn't a warhorse, as those were a separate breed, he would bear Arthas in ceremony and daily life. The Balnir family, who bred horses used by the royal family, gave the horse to Arthas two years later. Arthas considered naming the horse "Snowfall" or "Starlight" because of his white coat, but in the informal tradition of Lordaeronian knights and nobles naming their steeds after a quality (Uther's was "Steadfast", King Terenas' "Courageous"), he named the colt "Invincible".

After murdering his father, Arthas—now a death knight—ran directly from Capital City to Invincible's grave at the Balnir Farmstead. With the power of  Frostmourne, Arthas resurrected the horse as his undead steed. He decided that Invincible's death seven years earlier had not been a mistake on his part, but rather an essential part of his destiny. He believed that the now undead horse was proof that he had never been wrong about anything in his life—if the stallion had been alive, he would've feared the death knight, but now the two could be reunited. Although he hadn't been bred to be a warhorse, Invincible's resurrection made him immune to hunger, pain, and exhaustion, making him the perfect steed for Arthas. Now fully living up to his name, he could move with unnatural swiftness as well as become a spectre and disappear, to be resummoned by Arthas at any time.
