There may be dozens of roles in RP circles. I don’t just mean the classes or professions, but the roles characters play within their circles, cities, and culture. In other words, how do others see your character? We have the leader, the heavy, the advisor, the traitor… What other roles can you think of? What [...]
To get this picture, I played a dirty trick on Clem. As tricks go, it was pretty simple, but it was effective. Most of the good tricks, in my opinion, are simple. What are some of the really good tricks you have pulled off, or been victim of, in game?
Wildfire Riders don’t recruit. While we do try and advertise for RP events and we try to pull people into RP, we do not go out of our way to look for RPers. I, personally, am of two minds. I personally think that RP guilds should advertise and work with all sorts to make events [...]
Azeroth has a variety of alcohols, tobacco products, and it has coffee, but what about other, more illicit narcotics? In Dalaran we can see the washed up mage, a victim of Kungaloosh: Shattrath had it’s own down-on-their-luck NPCs, and let’s not forget the Blood Elves. I’d be remiss if I didn’t include herbalism and alchemy [...]
In the next xpac, we’re headed towards not just towards Pandas, but an elevated level of conflict between the Alliance and the Horde.

On occasion, we encounter an character who is a bit of lurch. Someone like this guy: A character who is either stupid or willfully obtuse. Dealing with a lurch is no different than dealing with any other difficult character. Some might scream at a lurch, some may ignore a lurch while others just love their [...]
Tru fax: If you play Daft Punk, Bika dances. I bring this point up not just because Daft Punk is in the air, but because–like dancing and celebrations–RP is something you do with other people. When we RP, even in WoW, we are interacting with each other. The only “bad” RP is where you [...]
A few years ago during an RP Night, Bricu and Threnn were sitting in the Pig, drinking as they were wont to do, when a thin, mousey woman sauntered into the Pig and Whistle. She was looking to hire protection for herself and her husband. As it turns out, her husband was on the run [...]
