Echoes of Lordaeron (warcraft RP)

@Product

Interesting idea. I do think we can keep it in Lordaeron if need be. Don't want to get too divided apart.

Plus this being Warcraft anything is possible. Perhaps. Is it possible to persay reform the Kingdom of Alterac even?

@NecroKnight

Yes! Thats exactly what I was going for.

@ProductOn the second thought if you allow custom factions you can fix almost every problem you have with Warcraft. In lore let's just say national borders are insane as you can have dozens of troll tribes roaming free within human kingdoms without the two ever properly interacting. Or how typical NRP activity can be done for factions that technically have no territory. If you make this into a heavy alternate universe version of Warcraft then all these issues could be reliably solved. Amani and Gurubashi have their own proper nations. Dwarfven realms that can exist without strong dependence on Ironforge. Gnoll/Murlock nations. Corrupted lands already in control of the Scourge. Etcetera, etcetera...

If we dramatically alter the plot of Warcraft and only use the lore at its core I can see this working out. And yes, Lordaeron is big enough already to host a great variety of nations.

@Willy Vereb

I was always hoping for custom factions (personally going for a troll tribe in Hinterlands). I'll use the existing lore to create events when applicable, but the narrative will be a major altar of Warcraft lore.

These are accepted. Put them over in the character tab.

@Product@Bee

These are accepted after you give all of your Pokemon names.

@Universorum

Are nicknames necessary? I’ve never been a fan of naming my Pokémon.

Echoes of Lordaeron (warcraft RP)

Yeah, it might seem weird but Lordareon is too small for a semi-decently sized NRP campaign.
Forget WC3, you'd struggle to play WC2 style events on it.

I can make an alternate suggestion, though. What if we expand the scope to the entirety of the Eastern Kingdoms and to make things interesting we take an alternate ending to WC2 where neither side won and the Orcs still hold Arathi and Stormwind? WC3 events still kick in with the Scourge's appearance but things would be more diverse and chaotic.

@Willy Vereb

I personally think Lordareon is the perfect size for the RP. The current map holds the (pre 3rd war) Kingdoms of: Lordaeron, Stromguarde, Gilneas, Dalaran, Amani Empire, half of Quel'thalas, Frostwolf Clan and the Dwarves of Aerie Peak. After factoring in lost territory due to the scourge it's a good size area to slowly expand before butting heads with one another.

I guess it all comes down to how many people were willing to join the rp. I had planned for most of the plot to revolve around the conflict with the Scourge, and that wouldn't really be possible south of Silverpine. I am willing to lengthen the map if there's a great demand for it.

Interested! Would love to play as the King Beyond the Wall.

Now, while it was probably not intended, its extremely hard to tell what you want to do in this NRP, especially considering it takes part in an already expansive universe of WoW. While I can get the idea for it, there is very little to say what the idea for this NRP is. Is the RP going to allow very custom factions? How custom will they be compared to the other lore? Does it have to be based on that warcraft lore? What about other north EK regions, like Quel'thalas or perhaps Gilneas?

@Slagar

Very custom factions. Someone could play as, say Arugal in Shadowfang keep and amass a Worgen army in southern Silverpine, or make up their own character and start a new troll tribe in the old Amani territories.

I don't want the map to extend beyond the Lordaeron subcontinent, but there is still potential for most races to have a base in the given land. I was also going to exclude eversong woods, but the Ghostlands area would be playable for any potential Wretched/High/Blood elves.

The time period is also pretty much going to be a slaughterhouse, considering this is the period where the scourge and legion are best buds, and are curb stomping humanity in the process.

As a suggestion, you'd perhaps want to either expand your idea of the roleplay's theme or expand it's region is bit farther, and explain the rules and what not.

The RP will begin after Arthas has departed for Icecrown. This will leave the Burning Legion's Dreadlords locked in a civil war with the Lich King's forces. I was going to follow lore events as best I could, but if everyone involved went off the tracks it would leave room for interesting story potential.

At the start of the narrative everyone will probably be busy fighting the Scourge and Burning Legion. Events will likely follow with the formation of the Scarlet Crusade as secondary antagonists. It all really boils down to what factions people are wanting to use. If someone wants to play as the Scarlet Crusade I would come up with different antagonists that didn't break the lore too much.

Hyrule's Civil War (Zelda RP)

@product Sorry for the late reply. So, hrm, I'm not really sure how to introduce the ambush, since I don't really know anything about the king and his entourage - even things that a scout would be able to tell Nadijah and co. in advance (or that might be common knowledge to some townspeople). Things such as does he arrive on foot, in a litter, on horseback, how many men does he have in tow, how much armour he wears or... well, anything really.

Is it alright if I just skip to Nadijah confronting the king, maybe? Maybe the mob has gotten him separated from his men, and that's when she strikes. If you're looking to introduce him, that also gives an opportunity for it without a crapton of NPCs buzzing around.

With that said, er, I have it in my status as well, but I'll basically be gone until the 22nd of July in a few days (will be doing my last posts this weekend). So that... might make things a bit more difficult. You are free to control Nadijah if you wish after I'm gone, or handwave anything needed. I don't want to halt the rp for three weeks with my trip.

We could also do the whole ambush thing as a flashback later on, if you'd prefer. Like--- all focus is given to the other group for now, and if the king meets them at any point, he does (since I'm pretty sure he won't be dying in the ambush, haha). And after I'm back we can show what happened in the attempted ambush.

I'm cool with whatever is easiest for everyone. Whatever is decided, I can post this weekend on my part.

@Vertigo

We can skip to the confrontation since you'll be MIA for a few weeks no prob. The king will be on horseback riding past the slums with his body guards when the riot starts. You're free to go from there and I'll have the king's response ready. He'll be fully armored.

@ArmorPlated@vietmyke@Zeroth@Perascamin
I posted. You can all investigate the bodies and different passages or go straight for the castle. Either way, it's about to get good.

@Vertigo
I'm giving you freedom on how you'd like to set up the ambush.

Sorry everyone I am not having the amount of free time I want to invest into this...I think it may be best I politely bow out. This is just from me not being able to post as much as I like and I apologize for that.

@Z2010Deadmeat

Real life comes first. If you ever get the time, feel free to check back in. Hope to RP again in the future ;)
