Lend Me Your Ideas

By | October 15, 2009

There is no doubt the the lore of WoW is rich, diverse and, at times, convoluted. Lore is documented in comics, RPG products, quests and web. And as rich as the Lore is, there is still room to develop one’s own lore–previously defined as Loretastic!. Sometimes, Loretastic! needs a push from an outside source… Regular [...]

Wrathgate Wednesday: Italics Post

By | October 14, 2009

Muse by *JRinaldi on deviantART If you have ever herded cats, you’ve run an RP event–and vice versa. One of our “corralling” methods was (It looks like Wrathgate has wrapped up all the posting, 13 pages later…) the Italics Post. These posts, written by Tarquin or our own Falconesse, provided guidance and context for the [...]

Holiday!

By | October 13, 2009

So Warcraft has been nice to RP’ers, I think, in regards to the inclusion of holidays into their system. Sure it’s just another way to whore achievement points, but for us “special nerds”, it’s also an excuse to get some stories going. So, IC or OOC responses, what is your favorite in-game holiday? And why? [...]

Friday Fiction: Just For One Night

By | October 9, 2009

((In Anna’s comment thread about how our characters deal with grief and hard times, I mentioned that Annalea’s been a bit…self-destructive recently.  A discussion with Tarquin about how Tarq and Annalea are handling their current situations (or not-handling, perhaps) prompted him to write this amazing post.  “Just For One Night” is a companion to Tarq’s [...]

The only time I get agitated about RP on Feathermoon is when I read the ubiquitous “OMFG RP IS DEAD!” posts. These forum threads are exactly why I avoid the forums. I’m lucky enough to be in an always expanding (if slowly expanding) RP circle, that does small, medium and large events, as well as [...]

Wrathgate Wednesday: Uthas

By | October 7, 2009

The Wildfire Riders – Uthas by *JRinaldi on deviantART Uthas is the reason that the Wildfire Riders exist. He is also the preacher-turned-villain of old school Feathermoon. After the character was semi-retired, Uthas left us a note on the forums: “When Blizzard makes Death Knights a playable class, I might be back.” When Wrath was [...]

Friday Fiction: The Birth of The Thing

By | October 2, 2009

Staring at a summoning circle for too long was not good for the psyche. After a while the lines started to blur, all the sigils started to look the same, and you got ideas. The first two were manageable, but the last – well, that was problematic if you weren’t as responsible with magical studies [...]

Fic This.

By | October 1, 2009

As we have said countless times, RP has more to do with interaction than solo production. Our clever readers may ask, “But Bricu, isn’t the process of writing Fic a solo activity?” The really clever readers respond: “Writing is not a solitary process.” Let’s face it, even when planning how you are going to do [...]
