Bricu and Officer Pomeroy have a long, and rather complicated, history. This allows for some rich stories. Enjoy the intro while the rest of the piece is being tweaked out! – “Kara, I don’t have time to talk! Have you seen him?” Edgar Pomeroy folded his arms over his breastplate, and glared at the Gilded [...]
Apprentice, Journeyman and Grand Master Storytelling; Using Professions to Embellish RP
By Bricu | August 26, 2010
Today’s guest post is brought to us by Illithias, of US Feathermoon. Illi is a long time Feathermoonie and RPer–both table top and in WoW–and we’re lucky enough to have him write us a guest post–Bricu. Teothy leant over his workbench, tiny file in hand and tongue stuck out the corner of his mouth in [...]
Let me be blunt: I typically hate wacky RP. Zany hijinks and wacky adventures don’t do a thing for me. This is just what floats my boat: A lot of RPers I know and respect have Wacky Adventure Time–so while it doesn’t work for me, it works for someone else. That being said, Bricu has [...]
The WoW RP community is a rich, diverse and hella confusing place. We have blogs, twitter accounts, Nings and the official community forums. When we multiply these content sources with the age of WoW, we have way too many stories to keep track of. The history alone can make a new RPer wary of trying [...]
What are the features that you wish WoW supported? These could be technical features–OpenGL enhancements, cross-faction languages–or story features–A Wrathgate-like event for Cataclysm.

Or mailbox. Or inbox. Mail thingy. I received an email from Jan this morning asking, Unfortunately, I’m one of those avid wow players who haven’t received any cataclysm beta invites! Do you think it’s wise to just wait for the release? Because some people say playing the cataclysm beta will eventually remove the fun in [...]
This week, the only real amount of WoW time I was able to get was RP night on tuesday. However, last week Ringo wanted some assistance in determining the time span between Wrath and Cata. As we can see from the above Screenshot, it is clear that at least three to five years have passed [...]
Bricu becomes king of Stormwind in Cataclysm The changes we’re facing in Cataclysm might be just as dramatic–but not as absurd–as the picture above. If you’re one of the lucky RPers who has a pre-planned Epic Story to fill in during this Lull, you may not feel the same tedium that a number of your [...]
With the end of major content patches to Wrath, everyone has their eyes on Cataclysm. Burnout, boredom and tedium have set in, which is going to make RP a bit more difficult. Personally, I believe that the space between patches can be a brilliant time for RP. In this instance, we have a confounding factor: [...]
