Gilneas, The New Death Knights?

It's the Gilneans, who are offering it. But as I said, i'll see how cata goes.

I'm allready stocking up on Truesilver bullets for all those "New Moon" wannabes. Just like DK's I fear that only few will play a Worgen as they should instead of loling around.

Can we all at least give the worgen role-play a chance? It seems a lot of you are knocking it before it's happened. Sure, they'll be a few of Goldshire standards but they don't get better due to auto-judge and shun. The worgen have a great back story and once played a major role in the alliance, them re-joining will create many issues in diplomacy, general social events etc.

During the two Scourge invasions (Naxxramas release, and WotLK Pre-Event) if the Scurdge flew Necropollis' over inhbaitable areas like Tanaris and unpopular areas like Azhara then it's very like they did so with Gilneas and Kerzan as well.

Gilneas would have fallen if a Necropolis had come over the wall. They wouldn't have been in a state to defend themselves from both the Scourge and the Worgen :/

Canonically, any and all Worgen Death Knight should be considered Grizzly Hill Wolfcult - not, not Gilnean. Please. There might be some Silverpine specimens, experiments taken from Amberpine when the princes dropped by, but the fact remains that the scourge did not get past the wall.
That, and I've actually come to be in the firm belief that they came up with the [GH] Arugal plot, to open the way for Worgen in Arthas' army.

One, the gilneans are as far as we know the only ones with access to the cure (and they'll probably keep it as secret as they can to prevent anyone from tampering with it).

Provided it is the Elves who finally cure them (in a sense), and not the Gilneans themselves, doubtfull. Convincing a Gilnean to pass the curse onto you, however, is another matter entirely. Gilneas did not like Strom, and I imagne the feeling would be mutual. Nor do I imagne any Worgen giving the curse freely to anyone.
Still, I'm not opposed to the idea of the curse spreading after the Gilneans join the Alliance as a whole - because its going to happen, and on a larger scale than we're probably thinking of now.

I'd like to put together/join a cult on a new character in the making into the fanatic idea of 'blessing' themselves with the Worgen curse to satisfy the obsession and greed for power.

I very much like this, actually. And I'd imagne that certain NPCs would feel the same way.

In an RP sense the worgen present the same danger that death knights did, yeah. Chances are we'll have to deal with some rubbish roleplaying for a bit and then it'll die down, though I'm hoping the worgen actually develop a community, since it's rather dead for death knight's at present.

But I voted not feeling strongly either way, 'cause.. I don't. Whatever, if it doesn't screw my RP up I don't really care.

I look forward to seeing the Alliance trying to ban them, since 90% of the alliance population will be Worgen for the first 2 months in Cata. Same as if Horde tried to outlaw Goblins as tricksters... we'd be overwhelmed by the short, green tide.

Something that doesn't make much sense to me, is how people feel "Worgen can't be DK's, lorelol", but they're fine with Forsaken DK's. Yep. Perfect sense. "sup gusy. i died to the plague, was risen by LK-san, Sylvanas freed me, but somehow I was under LK-san's commands again, as a DK, but now I am free -again-. Y'know. Sorta like Kael'thas. And Valanar. And Keleseth. And Kael'thas. Yes. I know I said it more than once. /care."

Chill out and don't spend too much time in philosophical debates, I say. Good RP will be good RP, no matter the background. Bad RP will be bad RP, no matter the background. You can have an excellent RP'er take an edgy background and work wonders with it, to the point it doesn't even bother you to think about it (unless ofc you are prejudiced and on HOLY CRUSADE HOOOOOO), and you can have 43534534 "rp'ers" taking a perfectly normal background and making it so horrible that even Mary Sue would burst to tears.

Live and let live, do the best you can do.

i like them,
as for rp i judge every one on a one to one. and wont write of a class/race due to a few people

Goblins will be the new Dreanei (Err... underplayed compared to the other race, not lesbian tail cyb0r). On Burning Crusade launch day on Defias I decided to make a Dreanei at peak hours (Around 5:00pm when everybody was rushing home to play) and found the zone almost completely deserted bar a few Shamans who rolled such for their raiding guilds. Heck, there weren't even 'that' many Blood Elves either from what you'd expect.

I believe the idea with Forsaken Death Knights is that they rotted a bit before being made DKs.. Not died again, then risen again. xD

What if... it was a secret experiment by the forsaken to turn worgen into dk's, but it didn't work in combination with the worgen curse/virus/whatever.

It kind of would be our style.

I think that's the 'epitimy' of wanting this to work 'too much'.

I don't see why someone would WANT a Worgen Dk, the Lich King is dead. What can you rp without people saying, "Yeah, Arthas is dead. Your mission is complete. Kill yourself."

Why wouldn't they, it be a good slap in the face.

No it's a way to be ignored by the general rping community.. xD

Are we talking ic or ooc now, becaus i'm thinking ic.

It'd be fine if the Worgen was a Silverbrook guy, or something I'm sure. The Lich King had Worgen slaves in-game.

I mean, with the Lich King dead, wouldn't his hold be like...gone? Especially with so-and-so now with the power.

I'm sorry to bring this in, but...

Spoiler:

...Or just Gilnean Necromancer..? Working amongst the shadows.

...Nooooo.

Just nooooo. That's what Worgen Warlocks are for.

That's another thing! Nobody's saying anything about the Worgen Warlocks.

Well The Dark arts are common, so common infact they proably had plently of people in Gilneas studying it and being able to teach it before the gate closed. What.. You think everyone in Gilneas was excited about being exiled off? XD
I bet there was one gilneas necromancer like..

" Yeah! I'm gonna go start a huge zombie army and take over the world!

Greymane: STFU! Were closing the gate.


FUFUFUFUFU ".
