Good day, everyone! Here comes an idea for a new RP I had in mind and discussed with my Co-GM, Red Savant.
Given the great world of Warcraft franchise, wouldn't it be fun to explore it and play in it in an RP? Thus we got to planning and came up with a rather simple plot which should let us go all around and have a good diversity of characters.
The timeline would be just before the start of the events in the Burning Legion expansion in World of Warcraft, where so many big players of the world are still alive and kicking. During a skirmish between the warriors of the Alliance and the Horde, on a corner of the pitched battle something interrupts the fight. An Orcish Shaman runs from a shadowy and fell foe, wounded to death when he runs into the battle, giving the warriors of both sides a look at the evil which pursues the man before he falls over among them.
With his dying words, he bids the few warriors of both sides to take a peculiar medallion and go to some hidden ruins for the sake of all Azeroth. Evil is afoot, one who has tried for so long to engulf the entirety of Azeroth in death and destruction. Giving them a vision of what is to come, the man perishes and the group which were enemies but moments ago must band together and travel all through Azeroth, slipping through conflicts big and small, avoid the gaze of greater evils as they venture into long forgotten ruins to gather the means to stop an incoming threat.
Players would be free to play any of the races or anything that is reasonable. You may take base on the classes available on the MMO or simply make up your character with whatever skills and equipment you desire as long as it fits the setting. The emphasis will be in interaction, exploration and growth as we travel and find long lost secrets.
If you are interested then let me give you the character sheet to start making your character with. A few things to take into account. We shall be starting our game somewhere on the Eastern Kingdoms, it's been roughly 6 years since the end of Warcraft III: Wrath of the Lich King when Arthas crowned himself as the Lich King. A year before that, Archimonde was defeated when he attacked the World Tree and a year before that started the Plague of the Scourge and Thrall led the Orcs to Kalimdor.
As for your characters, remember you may come from all walks of life and while you can stick to the classes in the MMO if they suit your needs, you can certainly ignore them and tailor your character to what you want to play. I'm thinking the characters are not complete novices to fighting or adventuring, or if you are, you are extremely talented, and more likely fall somewhere in the mid range of power. You're not a famous hero or one of the major names in any faction but you shouldn't be brushed off as just another warrior. Feel free to have few magical items to your name, Red Savant and I will try to gauge what is alright or too much as it comes up.
Name:What are you called? Include aliases and titles.
Gender: What gender do you have?
Age:For how long have you lived?
Race: What race do you belong to?
Appearance:What do you look like and what do you wear?
Personality: What do you act like? What do you think like? What do you believe in?
Associations, Allies, Pets:What factions are you a member of? What allies, servants, connections do you have? What pets, minions, mount or the like do you have?
Gear, Weapons and Belongings: What weapons, armor, gear and other possessions do you carry with you? If magical, what do they do?
Skills, Abilities, Magic:What can you do? If you have special skills, attacks, abilities or spells do list them. Also list mundane skills, like cooking, athletics, scholarly knowledge and the like.
Bio: What has your life been like that eventually drew you to this battlefield somewhere in the Eastern Kingdoms?
Do note that the GMs will be using player characters as well and take part in the adventure. Red Savant will most likely use a Tauren Hunter and my own character, a human mage, lies below as an example. Do note that you don't need to be quite as extensive when building your character as I was.
