[Ironfist ver 1.2] Last Stand - Who is Lord Varuun? A Knight? A Necromancer? A mix of both?

In the Ironfist editor, Lord Varuun is represented by a Knight sprite on the map.
He has a Necromancer portrait, and no special secondary skills.

During the game, Lord Varuun is also represented by a Knight sprite on the map.
During combat, he has a Knight sprite and his name is "Lord Varuun the Knight".

But he has the primary skills of a Necromancer, Attack 1, Defense 0, Spell Power 2, Knowledge 2, and the secondary skills of a Necromancer, Wisdom Basic and Necromancy Basic.

It does not seem to have changes for this in the map script.
Has this been changed elsewhere?

Edit:

I have made some tests.
The choosen portrait for the hero determines what the hero gets for the primary and secondary skills, and also for the troops.

If you choose a Warlock portrait, the hero gets all skills and troops of a Warlock, it doesn't matter which hero sprite is selected for the hero on the map.

Yes, when I was helping out with the fheroes2 mod, there had to be a special fix so that heroes could have a portrait from a different hero type but still have the properties of the proper hero type, and not the portrait's associated hero type.

Can this be considered as a bug?
The mapmaker who does not know this may scratch his head more than once.

As a side effect, it also displays "Multiple" for the Class of the hero, where the player chooses a scenario, and therefore, this is not really the case.

Can the fheroes2 code, in a general way, be used with Ironfist?

No. They're totally separate codebases, working totally differently.
