Horde Shaman, Looking for a guild or place to start to grow and learn RP. New to the RP scene. Is there a Horde Guild on PvP or PvE ruleset during Beta looking for people or Discord getting ready for launch?

Hi everyone!

I need advice on which faction to choose. I’ll start in forever in an RP server and I’d like to know if there’s any real faction imbalance. Like Alliance way more popular than Horde. Its my first time in the RP servers.

Background: I’m currently learning German and I’d like to use my gaming time as a way to improve it further. I have two great character ideas, one per faction, in which I weave this into the character background, both I’m equally invested in developing. I’ll install the game in German and start in the RP servers!

But I’d like to have the most chance to have spontaneous encounters, and arranging heavy narratives with a lot of reading and writing sessions is a level I’m not at, yet.

Having this in mind, I’d like to explore one of the characters in an easier environment with more people, where I can jump in/out smaller scenarios, and when I’m more confident in my German proficiency start on more serious bigger stories, maybe guilds events. Etc.

Thank you!

So with Forever around the corner and most of my friends playing non-forsaken horde races I'm thinking about in that era what's the best way to portray opinions of a member of the forsaken working with them. Like I'd imagine there's animosity against the orcs and trolls, and probably more neutrality towards the tauren. So I guess a general question for forsaken roleplayers on how you like to handle those kinds of interactions or what your characters views are on the rest of the horde.

EDIT: Sorry about that! I forgot to set the Google Drive permissions to public earlier. The links are now fixed and everyone should be able to access and read the PDFs without needing to request permission. Happy reading!

Hey fellow Classic & RP lore enthusiasts,
I wanted to share a passion project I’ve been working on. I’ve written a comprehensive, 50-page World of Warcraft story. It’s heavily inspired by classic lore and deep roleplay mechanics, featuring lots of dialogue that will bring a smile to your face because it feels so beautifully familiar, capturing that authentic WoW Classic vibe perfectly.

Since reddit and forums usually mess up the formatting (italics, emphasis, and spacing) — and simply due to the massive size of the story — I uploaded the clean versions directly to Google Drive so you can read them without any registration wall or login loops.

The story was originally written in German and has been fully translated into English. Both versions are available for free:

• 🇩🇪 German Original (PDF)
• 🇺🇸 English Translation (PDF)

A brief teaser:
Four dwarven brothers, bound by blood and battle, venture forth across the Eastern Kingdoms. What begins as a classic journey soon turns into a desperate race against time. Joined by a Night Elf Druid and a Gnome Warlock, this unlikely group must face the darkest corners of Azeroth to save a dying forest. A story full of epic combat, nostalgic lore, and sharp, witty dialogues.

I would absolutely love to hear your feedback, thoughts on the lore, or how you feel about the characters. Hope you enjoy the read during your next flight path or queue!

Lok'tar / For the Alliance!

Since they will only add the RP-PvE ruleset I'll most likely end up rolling pure pvp as the world without danger just doesn't carry the same thrill for me.

I was wondering if any one else had the same plans, perhaps a horde guild with room for a player that has been away from the game for so long I no longer recognize the base game ( aka. "rusty"/"washed" )

Very excited for wowf. I have played alliance and horde relatively equally over the years, but I finally made the decision to go horde on launch (specifically my goat, troll).

Anyone else going to be rolling horde on the RP ruleset?

Edit: seems like someone or people are coming in and downvoting people just for saying what race and class they are gonna play in this thread. Don’t let that impact you. Im excited to play with y’all.

You name it! DMs are open

So Blizz just pulled out my heart and trampled it into the ground. There will be no RPpvp server. I haven’t played on a RP server since Feathermoon and I got yelled/questioned at more than a few times for being flagged. Have the carebears chilled at all in the last two decades? Now don’t get me wrong I am a rper first pvper second. Hell on Grobb we have a /roll 20 raid to end a long running storyline. I want to make stories with you all. I also want to hunt down undead rogues that fill adventurous to stealth through SW.

I've been meaning to ask for a few years, however I play WoW really on and off and hopefully soon I'll just buy the yearly sub package instead of worrying month to month ;

How does one RP a Dracthyr?

I have one and I see her as very prickly and mean, but not to the extreme where she would berate someone, just someone who's been in stasis for a while and doesn't know how to interact with someone.

What is everyone's advice amd how do you Roleplay your Dracthyr?

When the next patch drops that allows forsaken to become paladins I will be race swapping my blood elf paladin into a forsaken paladin. My character is going to canonically die and be brought back by the light as an undead. Would it be better to just use the darkfallen customizations for blood elves or stick with using the forsaken? Would it be weird considering that the forsaken models are all humans? I was just going to put my race as Blood Elf in my trp profile.

Hi everyone,

learning the lore bit by bit and I love some societies the world has and want to learn more.

If you would be to join a society in WoW, S7, Royal Apothecary Society or anything else that exists in the world of classic WoW, what would it be, why, and which class would you pick for that story?

I've always enjoyed dabbling in rp in mmos, I used to rp a lot in wildstar with my guild, and then later got into more character writing in ffxiv.

However, rp has never been my main focus in any game, my friends and I who are trying forever are planning to roll on the PvE ruleset, but I'd still be interested in trying rp in forever, especially since I never got to in earlier versions of retail.

Any other rp'ers planning on rolling on the PvE ruleset like me? Will it be sustainable?

Hey guys!

I'm a Dwarf Paladin main most of the time. I really like the fantasy and aesthetic of Dwarves, and I've always loved the Paladin fantasy of being a warrior of the Light: someone who protects the weak, stands up for others, and follows a code of honor.

However, for WoW Forever, my friends are going Horde, and I'm having a bit of a hard time getting into the Undead Paladin fantasy.

I've looked into the lore, played through the Undead starting quests on the beta, and I'm currently playing through the new Warcraft III campaign to get more familiar with the Forsaken and their story. I'm actually finding the concept pretty cool, but there are still a few things I'm struggling with. They might seem a bit silly, but they're things I keep thinking about, so I figured I'd ask for some opinions from other roleplayers.

Fishing and Cooking as an Undead Paladin

Yeah, this is one of my main issues. I find it a little strange to imagine an Undead character being a master chef at the same time.

As a Dwarf, it just makes sense to me. I'm an adventurer exploring the world, fishing and cooking to sustain myself along the way. Dwarves have that cozy tavern culture, enjoy their food and drink, and have a strong sense of exploration and adventure. Fishing and Cooking feel like natural extensions of that lifestyle, and they give me more ways to engage with the world and develop my character through roleplay.

With the Forsaken, though, I have a harder time connecting those same activities to the character's lifestyle. They don't need food in the same way the living do, and their culture seems much more pragmatic, especially given everything they've been through.

So how do you reconcile the idea of an adventurer who takes time to explore, fish, and cook with the Forsaken's pragmatism and lack of a need for food?

More importantly, how would you justify Fishing and Cooking for a Forsaken Paladin without making the character feel like a living human in an undead body?

I'd love to hear your thoughts and how you would approach this kind of character. Thanks!

Hello everyone,

So my friends and I have decided that we will roll on the RP Ruleset on Forever's launch. A big factor in this is the general vibe of the community, especially from what we've "unfortunately" interacted with in the Beta (having mostly not played WoW in several years).

That being said, we aren't coming in as full spectators. Our group also plays D&D together, so we want to get involved at different levels (I'm personally super excited to build my character and use TRP3 to it's fullest).

So my questions are:

What is the Raiding/Dungeon scene like on RP servers?

Two of the group are very much interested in doing the Raids as they come out, and there is some concerns that raiding is less popular or still heavily RP-focused in most guilds.

Is OOC ok in dungeon (party chat) settings, or is it best declared beforehand (like in Forever's LFG).

The last thing we want is to come in and not respect the etiquette.

Is the community in RP servers generally more chill and respectful?

This may just be YouTube misinformation, so I'd just rather ask people who aren't trying to sell me a video and who experience it daily.

Thank you for your time and for any advice going forward.

Hello! Planning to get on RP ruleset in wowf. I'm new for RP realms, so I'm wondering if rp names with other than English are seen ok. I love naming any characters with my mother tongue Finnish. Like nothing offending, for example druid with some forest themed names.

I want my character to just be known by her first name but what's something lore friendly I can put for her last name? I don't want it to be immersion breaking but don't want people to think it's her name either? Please advise! Never RP'd a troll before.

Which one of you Blood Knight rpers is the new Matriarch/Patriarch of the order?

How will we settle this?

Hello,

I'm someone who's very interested in giving roleplaying a chance. I'd like to play a, bad mannered, ill-tempered dwarf. A dwarf's dwarf. A dwarf who holds the needs of the dwarven people above everyone elses. Someone who dislikes humans for being to dissimilar from one another and hard to understand/trust, because they range from a low-life petty thief to a brave and honourable soul.

That got me thinking; "I'll probably be disliked, or at least be considered as someone to be avoided". Now a days people tend to be too sensitive. Now, regardless of that I just want to have some fun playing pretend in a well mannered and good spirited fashion.

How can i be that cranky, stubborn, dislikeable dwarf without putting myself and other people in situations where the roleplay stops being enjoyable / fun?

Thank you

For as long as I remember I've been naming my hunter pets after Disney animals, like my boar Pumba or my bear Baloo. That's probably not too much of a stretch, but how do something like meme names sit within the community?

Just for fun, I like to have macros on the big cool downs. It also helps me to know if it fires off as sometimes it can be hard when doing an opening rotation in a big pack that you're trying to survive. It helps both me and who I play with to know when I fire off two big CDs. I'd love to know if anyone else does this and what theirs are! My worgen screams FOR GILNEAS! every time they Heroic Leap

For my dracthyr who is partially very much attuned to their black and red flights, they used time walking to experience the cataclysm and the fall of Deathwing. He's also a little comically intense. For my "lust," Fury of the Aspects, I have macro'd "/shout CATACLYSM!" and for my main 2min DPS CD, Dragon Rage, I have "/shout BY FIRE, BE PURGED!"

They have at this point mastered the other flights well despite their leaning and have chilled out a little bit (at times). I was thinking of two more lines, a /shout for when I use an AoE dmg reduction, Zephyr, which uses winds and lifts everyone up a little bit - and maybe an in-character /say when using my ressurection spell, Return, which uses bronze/time magic.

Importantly, I'd love one for my interrupt spell which uses a dragon's roar animation, Quell. I'd love if it could only go off if the interrupt was successful, I believe that's an add on I've seen before?

Currently for Zephyr since it's important for the team to know I'm using it, I just have "/shout ZEPHYR!" Which is intense enough to fit the character, but would love other ideas that are a bit more creative.

Hey there.

Super excited for Forever.

Silly question, but none of the Original Characters i want to play are from Azeroth originally.

I'll come up with reasons why they are here and they won't talk in details about their previous lives.

Now, would that be immersion breaking if i don't know the full lore of the alliance/horde?

Or should i just read up on some key characters?
