WoW Roleplaying

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.

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

Hi everyone.

I just started playing WoW again a few days ago. (I haven't playing in years so I feel pretty much like a total noob again, heh.) Anyhow, I'm looking for a good RP guild or just a good server to RP on since RPing is 2/3 of the fun for me in playing an MMO. I'm open to pretty much any side or class since I am just getting restarted.

I have a character on Kirin Tor at the moment just to get back into the swing of things.

Anyhow, I thought I would join the community and inquire about finding some fun RP on here since lj is my main online social... er... thing.

From: The Consortium Ltd., Outland Branch office, Stormspire, The Netherstorm

To: All employees and independent subcontractors of the Consortium on Outland

As it is the first day of the month, the gem payments for all fleshing subcontractors located in Outland have been organized and are available from paymaster Gezhe at Aeris Landing in Nagrand, north of the Oshu'gun digsite. We would like to remind you to pick up your gems as soon as possible, as any unclaimed pay will be declared forfeit and void at the end of the month.

We expect another quarter of strong growth based on our investments into Ogre obsidian and biodome technology, and as a result, all exalted and revered subcontractors will receive their usual bonuses in recognition for their continued support of the Consortium. Thank you for all your hard work, and we look forward to another profitable month.

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…now is the time to choose who will represent you and your people. In the upcoming weeks 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.

These meetings are open delegations 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.[/i]
------------------------------------

Date: To be announced. Nominations for Diplomats are currently open. Details for nominations are listed below.

Time: Evening pm hours most likely around 9pm

Where: ZG noninstance version, at the Snake boss ruins. Warlock summons will be available. We would like to host this event in Thrall’s chambers – however quest to the high traffic of the area and questing in that area we feel there would be too many distractions. A scribe will be in attendance of the meeting who will take the meeting and its notes back to Thrall himself.

Attire: Formal

Server: Steamwheedle (us)

Who?: Any and all Horde regardless of guild or race.

Faction: Strictly, and pure Horde. Alliance and enemies of the Horde found in attendance fact 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).

Diplomats: The ideal diplomat should be the embodiment of their Race. There will be two diplomats per Horde race – elected from popular nomination and vote. There will be a primary Diplomat who will take the floor, and a secondary supporting Diplomat who will assist the Primary Diplomat stand in the stead of the Primary Diplomat if the Primary is absent.

Diplomat duties: To collect the top 5 concerns of your people, and present them before a council of your peers. Diplomats are to collect a wide range of concerns and problems from as many of their peers as possible to allow as my characters a chance to voice their concerns, and ideas. There are many means to conduct such a survey – such as in person communication, or even the mail system. Members of the Horde are encouraged to find and address their Diplomat with their top 5 concerns and ideas for the Horde.

At the council, each Diplomat will be given a respectable time to address the concerns of their race before an audience of their peers. Afterwards, the audience may engage with the Diplomat who holds the floor to speak in regards to the matters addressed.
Horde members attending: Those members of the Horde attending are welcome to sit and listen and even engage with the diplomats. After a Diplomat has held the floor – the diplomat will then open the floor to five members of the horde (selected by dice rolling for top 5 if there are more then 5 players wanting to speak). Those members of the Horde may freely engage in debate, counter, or even provide and suggest solutions to the problems. There will be a time limit, so players will be asked to not afk and post in a time effective manner so other characters may take their turn.

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 nonexistant 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.)

Diplomats Nominated (nominations open – please submit your nominations):
Blood Elf -
Orc -
Tauren -
Troll -
Undead –

How to nominate a diplomat: IC….ballots have been sent out and arriving in the mail for members of the Horde, to elect a voice for themselves from among their peers. Characters may submit their nominations via mailsystem. OOC – post in the forums your characters mailed in nominations, or submit an in game mail/whisper to Banshih, or Mathadris. Nominations end June 30th, diplomats announced July1st.

Keep in mind – those nominated are being elected into a political position. This is not a case of who is the most popular – but someone who is the best suited for the job. Characters with Ic criminal histories, and concepts that would never make sense for such a role (known criminals, known enemies of the Horde, etc would not be an ideal diplomat). What would your character want to represent for their race?

But then again..what is politics without a few scandals?

Hola all. I`m soory for my bad English, because I`m from Russia. I`m playing WOW for 1 year. Not on official EU server, but on private Ukraine. My character is Gnome Warlock. I`ve been playing him for half-year. I love RP and I`m writing Diary. My character`s /Tsar/ Diary. If you understand Russian - read it, it`s very funny.
Some questions:
-How many RP realms in the EU WoW?
-Are there any Russian communities?

Sorry for my English ^^

See you there!

Behind the cut is a rp story I created. Its a short quick story no longer then 2 pages in length. If your a fan of tragic love, this might be just the thing for you. This story is a plot hook for an ongoing rp plot for my own character, the forsaken female in this story.

"What value was the tabard he bore if it had never won him his prize? "

(( For some fun, im poking others to make a minicity of their rp server / community! These are novel little online sim city generationors that are completely free, and novel and fun to play around with!

Steamweedle US http://steamweedle.myminicity.com/ - Check it out!

Is anyone else willing to start up a minicity for their rp server? ))

Greetings folks!

It's been awhile since I popped onto LJ so wanted to give it another go, so thought I'd check out some communities out there devoted to WOW and/or RP.

I wanted to extend an invite, as well, to anyone interested in joining a small, yet growing RP guild.

Kindred in Spirit is an Alliance side RP guild located on the Sisters of Elune server.

More info can be found at our site:

kindredinspirit.guildportal.com

Looking forward to meeting some of you there!

The Spring Fish Fling!
Along the Forbidden Sea, lies a sleepy little Dwarven farm…host to a tender peaceful Dwarven couple. Who once a year, are assaulted, knocked witless, and made to play host to…The Spring Fish Fling! Fishers of the Horde, professional and amateur alike are encouraged to come out and share their passion for fishing! The Spring Fish Fling is an entire evening event of fishing, violence, feasting, and of course more fishing!

This is a great chance to show off Hordies to socialize their crawdad pets, flaunt their fishing attire, and have a bite to eat all in the presence of good company! As Nate puts it, “Fishing is a great excuse to drink.”

--------- MINI EVENTS -----------
*Fishing Pole Dueling – No weapons, no spell casting, just you and your fishing pole to the end! Nat Pagle's Fish Terminator will be honored in these duels – so bring it if you have it! Who says fishing is for sissies?

* Fish Fry – Chefs of the Horde are encouraged to come forward, and share with the masses their finest fishy culinary concoctions! All through out the evening, hearths and fireplaces will be ablaze – playing host to casual attendees and chefs alike!

* The Crowning of the King and Queen – One male, and one female attendee will be selected as the best dressed for the evening and will be crowned! The judging is based on their fashion sense towards their fishing attire – nonfishing based attire does not qualify. Features such as gear from the Booty Bay fishing contest, and fishing enchantment do factor into the considerations as to who will be crowned.

* Prizes – To be announced!! We are hoping to have the prize pool offered for this on par to last years ‘Dance of the Dead’! For those who have asked, ‘Dance of the Dead’ will again be hosted this year! There will be countless free giveaways at this event..such as the +100 to fishing lures, +5 to fishing poles, and +fishing enchants!

----- DETAILS ---------
Date: Sunday, April 20th 2008 (The same day as the Booty Bay Fishing Contest)
Time: 8pm server time / eastern standard time.
Faction: Horde (Steamweedle US server)
Ammount of Fishing Skill required: You can have very low fishing skill to fish in the area that this even is at. We beleive a player with a 0 fishing rating, with the use of the free +100 lures can the free glove enchant can even fish in this area! So, bring a spare set of gloves, and come work on your fishing!

Location: Contact Banshih, Traumateam, or Mooth for further details! Whispers, say, and ingame mail are all valid means of contacting them! There will be a limited amount of Warlock summons for this event – obvious lvl 1 alts will not be accepted without prior clearance and confirmation of the main identity of the player.

OOC: This is a Horde based rp event, but there’s no reason why the occasional PEACEFUL Alliance just might stumble into this, and cast their line into the waters as well! This is NOT a pvp event, please do not attend flagged. This event is intended as a fun way to level your fishing skill, socialize, and meet new players! This is an rp event, so IC interactions are required.

SUGGESTED MOD: Are you new to fishing and want to level it with ease? If so, check out the mod called fishing buddy – it has many novel features such as auto lures, click to cast, and fish tracking based on region! This mod is a must for any fisher!

VOLUNTEERING: Want to help and get involved? Contact Banshih to see what you can do - Currently we need two DEPENDABLE warlocks who are willing to perform summons! Also, we need a host for the duel tourney!

The alliance needs to get supplies and payroll through to the outlands. Given the bulk needing to be sent, they will use the portal to move the supplies. It is vital to the morale and needs of the alliance to get these supplies through. Those who have agreed to protect this shipment will meet in Darkshire and begin the long trek to the Portal taking a route through the Swamp of Sorrows.

(March 29th - 9 PM server time - Gathering at 8:30)
(Low levels welcome to come as secretaries, aide de camps in charge of the supplies themselves)
SERVER - SteamWeedle (us)

Horde Side:
Imagine the blow you could give to the alliance not only to their Morale but the lack of supplies. In addition, it will fledge out your own factions' needs. Can you stop this caravan from reaching it's destination?
(Lower levels - brave the bands of alliance.. or remove the mortally wounded and tend to their needs)

This event is also an rp event as rumor of the caravan spreads through the horde.. use it to generate conversation. Alliance.. will the horde find out.. can we get the caravan through??

(((Guild masters.. if you have calendars.. can you please post this event.. let us make this a huge server event. Contact Leahalani with any questions. ))))

Hail, Horde-lings!

Back in February, I posted an announcement about a new RP guild I was starting on Feathermoon. Pride of the Ancestors has officially launched and we now stand at 25 members. Every member is dedicated to RP although we have varying degrees of skill.

Our guild site is up and running and can be found at http://ancestorspride.proboards47.com and all of our information is available to read even if you're not a member of the site.

It's time to see if we can make a difference on this RP server. Time to take the server back from the non-RP "losers" that have seemingly taken over. Did you know that some great (albeit elven) RP takes place in Silvermoon? Did you know people actually think that we'll NEVER get RP to happen in Orgrimmar? Preposterous! Check us out, see what we're all about and message Jox or one of our officers for an IC interview and see if this is some place you'd like to call home.

Warlocks are not admitted at this time. Recruiting for Be's is also closed at this time. All other Horde races are welcome to join. However, your demon-baby, vampire, dragon-half, lycan, power hungry, cat-person need not apply. : )

I have been interested in finding a roleplay guild on Moon Guard but haven't had much luck. Is anyone a part of a good, fun, mature (over 18) heavy roleplay guild either on Moon Guard or another roleplay server which is looking for members?

Or, would anyone be interested in starting one up?

There are sheets of parchment attached to random outdoor walls in all of the Alliance and Horde's major cities. No one saw them being posted, save for a few with farfetched claims that a shadowy monster left them behind in the night. They glow slightly at the edges with a yellowish-green aura and city officials note that they are completely unable to remove them from the walls. The sheets are printed with the same message in three languages regardless of location; two are crudely written in Common letters and Orcish runes, but are legible. The third is expertly scribed in Thalassian.

It reads:
"Do you seek a place to take your significant other this time of year, or are otherwise alone, in need of an oppertunity to meet someone nice? The Ball of Amore awaits your arrival, at the moonwell near the Stormrage Barrow Dens in Moonglade. Members of Ordo Draconis should be on hand to serve drinks to those on the Horde, and members of the Right Hand of Elune may be doing the same for members of the Alliance. Feel free to bring your own refreshment. Formal attire is strongly encouraged. Sufferers of the recent plague outbreak are advised to keep a distance from the moonwell if they must attend. The ball begins on the fifteenth of February, at eighth bell. --Laciel Duskraven"

Something is undeniably suspicious. But for most who read the invitations, it does sound like a good time...

(( Yup, it's the cross-faction Valentine's thingy I mentioned in a past post. This is my first attempt at hosting a get-together in WoW, so it is fairly simple in concept; just come to the Stormrage Barrow Dens moonwell at 8pm on Friday, Feb. 15 and engage in some RP. There should be staff on both factions handing out beverages, but bring your own just in case they do not (precautions, precautions). Those who are involved in the recent plague outbreak RP event are expected to comply with its regulations, if anyone afflicted by it feels the dire urge to come.

SERVER: Steamweedle (US) ))

(( Apologies for only announcing this with a week's notice. Spread the word! ))

Gnome Humor
-----------------------------
Three Alliance raiders - a human, a dwarf, and a gnome - are caught after killing innocent civilians at Crossroads and are brought to Oggrimar. They're tied and sentenced to death by guillotine.

"Do you wan't to be beheaded on your back or your front?" the Orc executioner asked. The dwarf looks up at the executioner and sneers "On me back," the dwarf said. "I'm nae a-skeered 'o death." So the dwarf was laid on his back under the blade. The executioner pulled the lever back, the blade dropped... only to stop inches from the dwarf's neck.

"Bah! Under Horde law, no man may be executed twice for the same crime!" screams the Orc Executioner mournfully, but the dwarf is released.

Next came the human, who was asked "Back or front?" The human, like his dwarven comrade, chose to bravely face the blade. So the human was laid on his back under the blade. The executioner pulled the lever back, the blade dropped... only to stop inches from the human's neck.

"Bah! Under Horde law, no man may be executed twice for the same crime!" screams the Orc Executioner mournfully again, but the human is released.

Next came the gnome, who was asked "Back or front?". "If it's good enough for my friends, it's good enough for me," replied the gnome. He was laid on his back under the blade, and the executioner about to pull the switch, when the gnome yelled "HOLD IT! "

"What? Why?" the orc executioner replied.

"Just a minute," explained the gnome. " I think i can see why the mechanism is jamming..."

So, I've been on Feathermoon from near the beginning- I rolled my character a mere month and a half after the game released. When I joined Feathermoon, RP was EVERYWHERE. And sure you had the occasional "1337 HAXX0R" trying to ruin it, but it was an awesome place for RP. That has changed over the years.

While there is still some outstanding RP on the server, there isn't enough. More and more of my RP friends are leaving the server to find "better" RP on other servers. Me? I take a different stance: Let's stay and improve the RP on the server.

So this is an open enrollment call to join my new RP guild not even a week old. It's a Heavy RP guild called Pride of the Ancestors on Feathermoon. Led by a tauren hunter (Jox), he has been called by the Earthmother to form a tribe of individuals striving to make a difference in the world even if it is simply by fighting with honor. The Pride seeks to live lives worthy of their ancestors in the hopes of making them proud. OOC we are trying to change the RP landscape of the server. We are in active recruitment mode for all levels. Warlocks will not be admitted to the guild at this time. Undead are welcome to apply, but they must have a good back story and match the goals of the guild. Blood Elf admittance is very limited right now due to the crappy/predictable RP I've seen from a lot of blood elves on the server.

Your demon-baby, vampire, dragon-half, lycan, power hungry, cat-person need not apply. : )

I'm working on a guild site this week, have an application ready, tabard done, guild bank purchased, and we're growing every day. Feel free to ask questions here or find Jox in-game to ask further questions or set up an interview. You can also email him at joxfinehoof AT gmail dot com.

I'm still not 100% sure what server I'm going to play on... maybe Blackwater Raiders, since that seems to be a kind of popular one? But, I have no clue what to play. I want something good and traditional. So help me narrow down from these choices:

Draenei priestess
Night elf priestess
Human mage
Troll hunter
Orc warrior

Hiya ^^

new to the comm, but not to RP or wow- been playing wow for over a year and have been playing table top RPG's since I was 15 (and I'm one of those rp'ers who thinks a night has been wasted if you don't break into sobs or blood curdling screams of fear or hatred/anger during a session)

I have been dabbling with a few ideas for an RP toon, and actually have quite a few- just for introductions sake, i'll list them ( under the cut ^^ )

anyways- I have a question for you RP'ers here:

I want to start a draenei priestess, name her Fiiara, and I want to run with this idea:

Fiiara is a quiet non descript female Draenei on first glance- pretty to look at, but nothing spectacular, with pale silvery white skin and pearl white hair. her horns rake out to the sides, and look as though she has filed the sides and tops down- they are completely smooth. The ends also look as though they are regularly trimmed. Her tail looks a bit longer than average, and her hooves are slightly smaller and more compact. A dark pewter scar runs up to her right clavicle from underneath her neatly kept robe, jagged wide and thick. She makes no attempt to hide it, but doesn't draw attention to it, either. She turns her back to you, her hair pulled over one shoulder, and the low cut back of her robes shows a huge wide scar covering the span of her back from scalpula to scalpula. You wonder where these cars came from, and what kind of weapon inflicted them that could cause a wound that could not be healed without leaving such a scar.

Basically, I want to RP a draenei who was once an Eredar who was a merciless killer, and eventually saw the error of her ways in an accidental encounter with a Vindicator who was conversing with a Naaru. He attacked her with a blade forged of Light, and she was blinded by it, and realized what an evil creature she was. She begged him to forgive her and her ways, and pleaded for a way to redeem herself. The naaru showed pity on her and cleansed her of her evil, and in a show of gratuity and resolve to her promise of redemption, she ripped off her own wings. In order to keep her past where it belonged, she shaves her horns and tims them to hide the jaggedness of them, and to keep their length under control. She is ashamed of her past, and tried to make up for her misdeeds by caring for the ill and wounded, and bringing the wrongfully dead back to life. She has no desire for love or carnal pleasure- she only cares to make up for her wrong doings.

my question is- would others readily accept this, or would this conflict with the lore somewhere? If I'm reading correctly, the draenei were all eredar until Velen lead them to the light- i basically want to RP her as one that came later, only after learning the hard way the error of her ways.

any thoughts on this?
