[A] - The Archline University
'But, Master J. We can't begin without proper teachers…' Robyn proclaims, unsure of her situation.
"Hrmpf.. Indeed we cannot, Robyn, but slowly the clock is being set in motion. Already we have gained more teachers and as you could have seen with the past events we grow in size rapidly.” He replies confidently. He keeps his gaze forward and his stride still filled with pride so thick you can almost touch it. He obviously has no intention of stopping now. “It's all a matter of time. Tick, tock, little Robyn, tick tock." Robyn nods to this, confident with Master J. So far, she’s never seen him fail in what he’s chosen to do. Never.
"Soon, we'll be prepared for the great war. Soon, we will be able to harvest from the minds we have created. It's all a matter of due time…" Jahi nods, his confidence seems great as if he has already obtained all his goals. As if nothing can break his intents.
Jahi glances absently towards Karkath, whom appeared nearby. His lips curve into a wicked grin as he speaks maliciously: "Is everything prepared for our little trip, Old Man?" Yurov nods, replying quite simply: "It is time." A portal opens up at the back of the darkened and withered chamber. The portal has no image, as it leads to unknown locations.
OOC
The Archline University will become a heavy magic school themed RP.
The teachings of Magic will be done in a very School-ish way, we'll be using actual books and yes.. joy, joy, joy! Homework! (At least you'll get to learn about some lore? :3)Of course practice and the training of techniques are part of classes as well. We'll have 5-6 teachers (more in the future perhaps) that will each teach a single form of magic. At this point we have the teachers for pyromancy, arcane, cryomancy, alchemy and melee The school will become a home for the students, eating sleeping and studying there. Only at special occasions are they to leave the school (Quests/vacations/urgent things!)
We'll be introducing old and new techniques of making fun events. Examples of the thing we're planning will be:
Rules
The guild has both a good and an evil tint to it. IF you wish to join as a good person then you're of course welcome to join and even (perhaps) try to sniff out what the secrets are that go around inside of the school! You'll miss out on some of the more entertaining events though as the rare few chosen for the cultist party will be given a personal master that will teach you. Seeing as there won’t be many people entering the cultist society don't be worried of ''missing out''
Seeing as we allow every race and class we've implanted a ''class'' system of our own.
At this point you have two ways to go.:
Melee
Caster
Epilogue
Karkath and I have been working on this idea for quite a bit, ever since we started the corruption event I truly wanted to continue on the system I created. Together with the help of Ariandra and other parties we brought this idea to the next stage.
This whole plan is still in its beta phase. We'll soon be finished (expect two-three weeks). The reason of this post was to introduce the new guild and perhaps already catch some interest. We hope to give the server something new (No it's not Harry Potter completely, and the magi school didn't do things like this! D: ) With the custom quests, “D&D” events and other customized events we hope to not be completely depended on, say, the Shields. This way they won’t be spam bothered by us and we'll always be capable of entertaining our students.
Thank you for your time with this wall of text. Now, be gone! (:

We'll be introducing old and new techniques of making fun events. Examples of the thing we're planning will be:
- Spoiler:
- The Dawn of Archline: All of the students will be divided into two teams; these two teams will hold a great spar. A fight will occur in three different locations, with three different elements and therefore three chances to obtain the Archline Magi Ring. The ring grants a small boost to the magi's capabilities. Though only the chosen team captains will be rewarded with this ring. - The system of choice will be a system that was used with the Crimsons and the Lichbanes. Every member of the fighting party will chose a target, entering a party with them (to prevent a massive spam of emotes and therefor lose track of the battle..) Each member will be granted ten lives. A OOC roll is made to see who attacks first(unless flanking the person) may that person succeed in his attack then he allowed another attack. Does he fail his attack (the other person having defended) the defender will be allowed to counter attack.
The Exploration of Dawn: We'll be exploring many parts of Azeroth, outland and even Northrend bringing our students to points where a large amount of magic is housed this will allow us to train at different location, see new places and even get a bit of lore.
D&D Settings - we'll be going to do battles at dungeons and random parts, we'll be using the Dungeons and Dragons settings here where one person is the dungeon master and you'll have to roll fight incredible monsters and of course gaining GHI loot!(Holy shiet!?!). More about this will be up in due time.
Custom quests - We'll be giving students customized quests to travel around the world obtaining items, fighting people and helping guilds.
Rules
The guild has both a good and an evil tint to it. IF you wish to join as a good person then you're of course welcome to join and even (perhaps) try to sniff out what the secrets are that go around inside of the school! You'll miss out on some of the more entertaining events though as the rare few chosen for the cultist party will be given a personal master that will teach you. Seeing as there won’t be many people entering the cultist society don't be worried of ''missing out''
Seeing as we allow every race and class we've implanted a ''class'' system of our own.
At this point you have two ways to go.:
Melee
- Spoiler:
Squire
A starting rank for all you weaklings! Time to pick up a weapon of choice and learn the ways of a master!
Good:
Soldier, trained in a weapon of choice and capable of wearing a full set of armor.
Elemental Swordsman
A man able to combine his weapon with the elements allowing enhanced attacks. For example a sword combined with fire would, yes you've guessed it: set things on fire!
Elemental Summoner
A man that can now enhance his weapon and armor with the elements allowing for protective use, such as your body turning into saronite for a short bit to prevent from a lethal stab, but also your fist can be turned into steel allowing you to punch someone in a very painful way.
Teacher of Might and Magic
A man who is trained in both the ways of the elements and the ways of the weapon allowing him to enhance his body with the elements combining them in powerful attacks he is now also allowed to become a teacher.
Evil:
Scout
A man focused on agility and speed, swift strikes is a scout’s calling.
Guardian
See Caster.
Cultist
See Caster.
Dark Teacher
See Caster.
Caster
- Spoiler:
Novice: A more adept apprentice having learned to cast without the use of a magical item (ring/staff/bracers) and therefore capable of taking up more difficult quests.
Good:
Adept
A mage who has trained in all the arts that the school offers.
Magi
A mage who now has mastered the Alchemy and enchanting allowing him to do powerful runic magic without the use of a papered rune.
Teacher
A man who has mastered in all the arts of the school, passing the final exam and after deciding what art he'll teach, the man will have to defeat that teacher!
Evil:
Guardian
The Eyes and ears of the cultists, they keep the trouble makers in place, using violent force if the brats refuse to listen! They also have been assigned their very own teacher.
Cultist
A person who has been trained by a teacher in the ways of Necromancy, Demonology, Fel Magic or the Art of Shadows.
Dark Teacher
- The final stage of the school, a man who has mastered everything - both good and evil. He will become one of the few that the school offers; a powerful master of the Dark Arts. Once you've reached the final stage of your talent tree we'll give you a lot more freedom in the ways you develop your magic and might.
Everything has its limits, though. We've implanted this system to prevent Warriors from running around summoning giant waves of lava while there six feet sword hacks and slashes across the battlefield.
Epilogue

No, we'll allow any race/class/age derpaderpderp. There will be some requirements to join the cultist side but that will be explained in our Real recruitment post.

Re: [A] - The Archline University
Update
It's a huge and difficult concept. It takes -alot- of work ( alot alot alot ) and it will remain alot of work due to it basicly being two guilds in one. We've worked quite some on the guild, but there's still alot to do and we wish to launch flawless.
At the same time we got our irl and other chars to RP on, so it's going a bit slow now.
What I am trying to say is: It might take a long while before we actually launch, but we wish to let you know that we have NOT abandoned this. ( yet )
Other then that: our apologies to those who were eager to join and excited about everything and thank you for your patience thus far. Cheers

That sound really nice ! Good luck with this project !
Will need to find a way for my char to get involved in some way and make an article about the new shool (and I'm not speaking about the secret part, would not be fun to be spoiled immediatly by a Journalist héhéhéhéhé ^^)

Please do wait with it! ^^

Dalaran is very likely to be empty in Cataclysm(No more portals!)
Any chance for it to take place there?

Re: [A] - The Archline University
An interesting concept. I'll be interested in seeing how you will prevent the Gewds and Evuls from tearing each other apart or at the very least, stopping them from placing Kick Me signs on each other's backs.

This is the truth. As for the waiting part, don't hold your breath. But again, this guild idea isn't abandoned yet.
Cheers for all the cheers however. =)
@Shadowpope: What do you mean?

Doubt it. It's a concept free for the taking as far as I've been told.

We decided to focus on an other long-term project on an other server. However , as there are quite some people who are interested in this then Ariandra's words are indeed true.

Agreed. I would probably try to build it if I wasn't a servant! Ha-ha!
