No Trial, I Don’t Like You.

Okay, so don’t get me wrong, the new ten man/twenty five man instance is SORT OF fun. The first boss is ridiculous, the second is easy, though I guess having flaming boots is entertaining. The third boss . . . makes me angry because I don’t want my PvP in my PvE thank [...]

Friday Fiction

This is an old Bricu, written for another Rider.
The Pig and Whistle was long since closed, but two stayed behind sipping at drinks. Bricu nursed his tea while Ceil sipped at her bourbon. The two hadn’t spoken since they got word–pamphlets, really–from the man who brought them together–Uthas the Plaguefather.
After a few minutes of [...]

What You Know or What You Learn?

When you make a new character for WoW, how much do you know about that character and how much do you discover about that character? Some RPers write volumes upon volumes of their character’s life before character creation. Other players let the RP they involve themselves determine what occurred before they entered the [...]

Upheaval

Now that we’re all aware that we won’t really be able to roll Nagasaurs (damn it!) and Blizzcon’s closed its doors for another year, I want to touch — briefly and tangentially — on the idea of the upcoming Cataclysm.
First, a disclaimer: while I’m sure there will be lore aplenty and all kinds of speculation [...]

Breakin’ the Law, Breakin’ the Law.

Hello folks. On behalf of the writers here, I’d like to apologize for sketchy postings the last week or so. One of us had the audacity to go off and get married, and the other two may have been drinking beers to celebrate.
We’re back, though, I swear!
So game mechanics – they’re [...]

Intermission

A hat tip to Arrens for this idea
Recently, we had a hit on the blog from the following search terms:
Arthas Uther Slash Fic.
Far be it from me to publicly mock people’s hobbies, diversions and reading choices…but “Arthas Uther Slash Fic?” According to Falconesse, the closest we’ve come to that topic is her suggestion that [...]

Wrathgate Wednesday: Illi’s Death Wish

And we’re back.
Illithias by *JRinaldi on deviantART

Illithias has been flirting with joining the Wildfire Riders for months–but the difficulties of trans-oceanic guilding have added levels of difficulty to a long process. In her second, we discover more on what Illithias wanted out of confronting the Lich King…

Friday Fiction: Another Adventure, Another Beginning

I hadn’t put much thought into playing a Death Knight, wasn’t sure what kind I’d like to play or what his/her story would be.  So when Yva asked if I’d consider playing a character who had, until that point, been one of her NPCs, I thought I’d give it a try.  I haven’t played her [...]
