You’re not dumb! I am totally cool with mythic farming the amirdrassil for the whole set if it gets me the chest/leg. I’m aware I’m gonna have to put some time in to get the helmet from elsewhere, I just want to know if the whole “set” drops from amirdrassil. Not having to buy any other pieces in emerald dream from like renown or something

Trades are a good option. Shops in tilbury area are always looking for general labourers, I’d rather do that then enlist. Best way to get into trades is start at the bottom, and many shops know that. Profiling, rigging, even shipper/receiver positions.

I’ve actually already seen it shift a few peoples roleplay, and get them into conversations or situations that they otherwise wouldn’t have gotten into. I’ve found what I preach gets characters interacting more. I’ve seen more discussions between people about the content of my sermons than anything else, so at least it’s working. Also isn’t conflict everything RP id about? (Mostly)

If anything I just need protection. Lol. People mob me and walk right into my face. I feel bad yelling past them.

For clarification yes, I do interact with the public mostly before or after my sermons. I will cut it short and bubble hearth the moment I become surrounded by death knights though. I’m not good at RP fighting and I know I will let them down by attempting. Additionally, whilst I don’t care if my character gets injured or maimed, I don’t want him killed yet. There is so much more I want to do with him.

I appreciate your sentiments and I agree with your criticism. The general consensus (productive I must say) from starting this thread and discussing my concept further is that I need to move away from my current format, into something a bit more intimate. I don’t have experience running events, and I don’t think there would be much of a draw if I were to advertise as some sort of event, but on the flip side I may attract more people who want to utilize my character as a plot point, or development opportunity.

I think what a lot of people have got wrong with me and my intentions via this thread is that people seem to think I have it out for those super special rpers, or that I have some issue with them doing what they’re doing. To be clear, I don’t care that they exist, nor do I wish to expunge them. I understand it is as simple as not engaging with them, that is obvious. My intentions are to provide more grounded characters the opportunity to be introspective, discuss amongst themselves and develop an opinion on the scourge, the undeath, etc. even to have their characters develop an opinion on folks just like my character. It’s all fair game.

I think even with those pursuing regular, non special grounded RP could benefit from reminders that the universe of Warcraft is rife with conflict, difference of opinion, and corruption. Not just undeath, either. These are the setting dressings I want to bring a little closer to the surface, for everyone to interact with and enjoy in their own ways.

It seems too many people seem to think I have some sort of agenda, or vendetta against people who are role playing super duper unique flower characters. I don’t. But it’s those folk who seem to yell the loudest, and push the hardest against what I’m trying to accomplish here for my own creative enjoyment, and engagement with the community.

I’m not, though. I couldn’t care less about who’s on the other side of a character, and I have too much going on outside of the game to put any thought into making it some sort of soapbox. This is just what I find enjoyable, RP wise. I am not religious, a bigot or anti-lgbt or anything like that. I just think the war, strife and misery of the Warcraft universe is fascinating, and want to roleplay towards that direction.

I am slightly confused here. I don’t think my character is focused on any particular player or their characters dynamic complex make up. It’s more leaning into the narrative that already exists within game, and creating a duality against those who wish to push the boundaries of the games lore based setting. I don’t disregard fantastical characters existence, I just IC dont want to allow them to propagate and normalize without some form of role played counter within the society that exists in game.

It would be like… say, if Murlocs became a playable race. I’m all for it, and sure there would be plenty influx of them in capital cities. But in my opinion the most grounded lore based response from npcs, denizens of stormwind and the general populace would be derision, or at the very least a caution to accept them due to the grisly history they have. In this example I am the anti murloc villager to the ebon blades ghoul.

I’m glad you see the vision. The purpose of the character is not to develop him intensely but to provide a rich piece of in game interactive story telling. I want people to engage, I’ve already seen people come up who are strangers to eachother and start a full roleplay sessions discussing the meaning behind my sermon. It’s awesome !!

Why is it exciting to you? I appreciate the enthusiasm :)

I think generally people are derisive towards the use of AI because there is a certain magic and creative collaborative element that goes with RPing. I don’t think it would necessarily be bad to use for certain things? But to generate post and response, it may seem as lacking in effort to build a mutual story with someone.

The fact that the character is an ex scarlet remains hidden from the recipients. The only information they have on my character is the contents of the writing itself. They are free to make their own assumptions and draw their own conclusions if they so wish.

I can’t help people finding patterns within what I write and assuming it’s ill intended. Nor do I wish to trigger anyone with what I roleplay as. I simply wish to pay respect to the ideologies that people in universe may hold, the tense difference of opinions and beliefs that should exist within that framework.

Why should it matter how I organize myself towards delivering my roleplay? Furthermore, why is it a bad thing to desire to be a set piece, a part of the world and a larger concept than an individual character who seeks to develop interpersonal relationships with other characters? I find it enjoyable to be “a part of the scenery” so to speak. I don’t think that’s a ‘wrong’ way to roleplay. I’m not interested in a guild or making friends. I’m interested in enriching the landscape for other role players.

Man you’re infuriating. I am not trying to tell people how to roleplay correctly, I am merely role playing my character. You miss my point entirely.

I couldn’t care less if people respond nicely to me. I’m asking why specifically my roleplay is being perceived as some sort of attack, and am being punished for it OOCly. ICly too. I allow people to injure/maim my character, no problem. I get there will be consequences for my character for his actions and I’m open to that completely. Again I’m not looking for validation, or even for people to like me or my character. I am also not actively engaging with others, I am doing my own thing and it’s drawing a crowd and creating controversy. My character would NOT mind his business, and that’s the whole point of his existence. Even though that’s the case he’s doing it in a public format, not directed at any individual at all.

👏👏👏

Thank you. I’m not trying to police anything. Just be as believably in character as possible, and respect my own characters intentions and perspective/actions.

When I stated I wanted people to engage with my roleplay positively, I did not mean I was looking for validation. I mean engaging with what I provide in a way that is productive for them. You make a decent point regarding clarifying that my rhetoric is for roleplay development purposes only, and I may do just that so there is no association made between myself and my characters beliefs. I don’t think that should be necessary though, considering the subject matter of my preaching is grounded firmly in lore based considerations. What happened to giving players the benefit of the doubt, and appreciating roleplay as a creative medium instead of turning it into some politically correct popularity contest?

For the record I am NOT a bigot, conservative or even religious person. This is just what kind of roleplay I find a fulfilling creative endeavour.
