Friday Fiction: Rage.

By | May 29, 2009

Sunrise. She walked in the door of his house, her eyes unfocussed. She tried to smile, but she couldn’t feel her face around the pulp of her broken nose, or the swelling in her upper lip. In fact, she couldn’t feel anything. The pain had given way to numbness. Her whole body was a slow [...]

When All’s Quiet.

By | May 28, 2009

So how do you START an RP dialogue with a stranger? I suppose you can walk up to someone and say your hello and comment about the weather. It’s a normal enough thing to do – sort of. I mean, it doesn’t happen to me in the grocery store or at the gas station. Americans [...]

Open Thread: Griefing Policy

By | May 27, 2009

According to Blizz’s Terms of Service (ToS), before one can open a ticket for griefing, one has to politely ask the person to stop. On one hand, this makes sense. People should make attempts to solve their own problems and concerns. One person’s RP may be another persons griefing behavior. But what does one do [...]

Say What Wednesday: Joining the RP

By | May 27, 2009

Everyone once in a while there is an event in real life that can help show off an issue in World of Warcraft. Last week, I had once such event. After moving our new furniture into a friends garage, my Fiancee and I went to the bar she used to work at. Our friend, who [...]

Signal to Noise

By | May 26, 2009

Noxilite’s been running weekly RP nights in the Barrens for probably close to three years now (we go bi-weekly during the summer, so people can go to that place called outside).  Our turnout varies — some weeks we have a big circle of people, others it’s just a few of us.  Last night, being Memorial [...]

Friday Fiction: Late Late Edition

By | May 22, 2009

I wrote this for Pill for following a regular blogging schedule. It will also, hopefully, jump start a horde-alliance conflict. The Bloodelf couple in the stands kept to themselves, whispering in their language. They screeched with joy when a Sindoeri rider dehorsed a human flying the colors of Stormwind. Bricu stood nearby watching the match. [...]

Wrathgate Wednesday

By | May 20, 2009

The Wildfire Riders of Feathermoon turned the Wrathgate event into a guild wide RP event. WTT:RP is posting those entries. This is another example of the set up for the guild event. The sun was high in the sky when the horns split the air, crying courage and valor with a shivering of bronze. Spears [...]

Vote!

By | May 19, 2009

This post isn’t about RP, but it’s about something zomgsofuckingawesome for a Feathermoon RPer. One of our favorite Boomsticks, Homrend, is not only the guild leader of an awesome group of RPers, he’s also a FINALIST in Amazon’s Breakthrough Novel contest. Should he win, he gets a $25,000 advance and a publishing contract from Penguin [...]

Idle Daydreams, AKA Stuff That Won’t Happen.

By | May 18, 2009

More customizable body types for our characters.  I know it’s harder on graphics, I understand why it’s not there, but there would be something absolutely AMAZING about a short, fat cook called Mama to RP.  I’d do it too - I’d make her as big as a house.  She’d wield Cookie’s rolling pin as a primary [...]

Friday Fiction: A Messenger

By | May 15, 2009

Posting this for Bricu, who is not near a keyboard at the moment.  This is a sneak peek at a work-in-progress.  Enjoy! — Kara Thompson, who refused to run on general principle, bolted out of the door of the Gilded Rose and into the crowded morning streets of Stormwind.  She was confused, worried and borderline [...]
