Tribune of the Horde

Tribune of the Horde


The treaty remains scattered and forgotten, and war has returned to our lands. The forests of Ashenvale, the foothills of Hillsbrad, the mountains of Alterac, even in other worlds… war has come to the Alliance and the Horde. Although we have made many great strides in taming and defeating the dangers of the Outlands, and much of Old Azeroth..many threats still linger in the shadows…

   Who chooses our fate? How do the people voice their concern and desires? Who decide what matters most to the people and how to appease such matters? It has been many months since a benevolent council has held sway over the politics of the Horde. In the upcoming week a gathering will be hosted where the races of the Horde shall gather and through elected Diplomats they may voice their concerns and bring them before the War Chief.

 The Tribune is an open exchange where the races may each have a reprehensive to speak on their behalf before a council of peers. These gatherings are where free thought, discussion, and verbal exchanged concerning our shared fates maybe shared. This event is open to ALL of the Horde.


-------------------


Date: July 27th


Time: 10pm est / server time


Server: Steamwheedle (US)


Diplomats: Mathadris (Blood Elf), Rikora (Orc), Mooth (Tauren), Tazdangor (Troll), Ryutan (Undead)


Nominations for Diplomats: Ended June 31st


Where: Inside of ZG. Warlock summons will be available, as well as summoning stone summons. Due to heavy traffic, and easy casual access by greifers the Tribune will not be hosted in a Major city. To accommodate the location, a Scribe will be in attendance to collect notes and send back the events of this gathering to the War Chief. There is no level requirement to attend at this location.


Presentation Order:  The order in which the Diplomats will speak and conduct their presentation is based on their races membership within the Horde. Out of respect the eldest races shall speak first, and then be preceded by the newer members. The order stands as Orcs first, Trolls, Tauren, Undead, and Blood Elves last.


Who may attend: Characters do NOT have to be a Diplomat to attend this event, it is open to ALL of the Horde. More so, after a Diplomats presentation the attending audience is welcome to ask questions, and otherwise engage with the Diplomat who had presented. This event is a forum for exchange and ideas about the state and future of the Horde. Furthermore player who are not Diplomats are encouraged to talk to your Diplomats and let them know of any concerns you would like your Diplomat to address on behalf of your race.


Attire: Formal


Faction: Strictly, and pure Horde. Alliance and enemies of the Horde found in attendance face IC backlash – if you bring an Alliance character into this event it will be treated as a spy IC and face very harsh / violent reactions. In choosing to bring your Alliance toon to the event, you agree to and understand that your character is in physical danger if discovered. Further more, Alliance spies agree to rp the consequence of their own actions if they attend this event (permadeath will not be used on Alliance if any are discovered).


OOC verses IC: This is an IC rp event. The concerns and views addressed are to be oriented in game and not be ooc concerns or problems. Perhaps at a late date we should host an ooc event – however this event is oriented towards the political, military, and social nature of the IC Horde. Keep your rp strictly ic, and your ooc strictly ooc.



Lore: This event is lore based and oriented. Until the content exists in game please do not make use of it (i.e. Wrath is not yet out and the lore in the upcoming expansion may change at any time. For example – characters may talk about the Scourge threat – but details and information about Death Knight player characters would be limited to nonexistent as the content as the expansion is not yet official or yet published in game. At any point in time Blizzard could change or alter the unpublished lore.)


Questions?: Contact Banshih, or Mathadris ooc. For IC questions and concerns speak with your races Diplomat.

Nope. There is a version of ZG that exists in Azeroth that is NOT in the instance..you can walk into it as a lvl 1 in STV

They wouldn't be very effective spies...seeing as how they didn't even bother to learn the language first and couldn't understand a word that was said. ;)

There's a lot of Alliance rpers who reroll horde races..such as BEs so they can RP both factions.

How would you know they were alliance then...?

I actually thought of that when reading it, but it said "alliance character" so I figured you meant actual alliance toons, not alliance pretending to be horde. :)

According to the RPG games, the RTS games, and most lore, all intelligent races are able to speak or understand Common to some degree. I know for a fact that Forsaken used to be able to speak Common in WoW but is now replaced with Gutterspeak. Also, Common letters appear on quite a few items and objects. It would be a different story if the Diplomats were to speak in their native languages such as Orcish or Thalassian but then that would defeat the point of having a Horde gathering!

Lore-wise, yes. I've also always thought it was kinda silly that UD couldn't speak to the Alliance...like dying made them forget their language or something. But game mechanics don't work that way, they wouldn't be able to understand it. :)
