The Seven Burdens of Shaohao
![[A] The Seven Burdens of Shaohao 634853990080888501](https://2img.net/h/media-azeroth.cursecdn.com/attachments/14/952/634853990080888501.jpg)
The Seven Burderns of Shaohao is a seven-part roleplaying experience offered to any character that wishes to tread in the footsteps of the last emperor in search of enlightenment. What is presented as a lofty and flighy tourist experience on the outside, is actually a clever ruse by the illustrious Shado-pan to purge the newcomers of their negative emotions and suppress the great advent of the Sha before it can properly surface.
Any number of characters can undergo this trajectory and can be at any of six steps at any given time. It can be interrupted by other plot lines or events and can be completed either in week or a year, depending on the wishes of all involved.
This is how it will work in practice.
Your character subscribes himself to this 'tour' at Paozi or any of his associates and is set on his or her journey together with an appointed guide. They will travel from and to the seven destinations with a pandaren guide and, once at the destination, will receive the appropriate training by an elder pandaren of the program, mostly likely a student of one of the four celestial schools.
This is what I need from the communtiy:
Ideally I will want teachers representing all four celestials and miscellaneous guides. I experts of meditation at the Jade Serpent Temple, I will need bards, poets and priests for the Red Crane Temple, I will need stern and stoic guardians to battle fear at Niazo Temple, a phletora of brawlers at the White Tiger Temple and finally Shado-pan to induct the final and highly mysterious final rite which I will keep close to my chest.
Many parts of the journey are open to input from players and each of the teachers is welcome to tackle their given subject in their own way and their own pace and likewise each of the students is invited to bring their own flavor to make their journey distinct.
Take your time, friends, and think it over. There is no hurry. There can be no students for months, or a dozen at once; I can take all of the teaching positions for myself, or we can have an army of rotating teachers who all chip in. Give it a while to sink in, for this journey is one journey that won't be organized nor taken in a single night.
I look forward to your input!

Perhaps, traveler, what you desire most
is a track of great footsteps to follow.

Of despair in the House of the Red Crane!
Of fear in the stalwart temple of the stout Niuzao!
Of violence, anger and hatred under the tutelage of Xuen!.
And finally reach enlightenment in the mysterious monestary of the Shado-pan!
Hesistate no longer, but act!

Unfortunately I'm too busy with my three horde characters to give this any form of permanent dedication. If a horde version was to arise, though, you can count on me and probably a bunch of other interested Shatterskull Attendees.

This is probably totally unrelated to your tour, but the name seems too similar to something I remember Drustai saying...
Did King Wrynn have his 7 trials of Hercules already? Are they in the game?
(On a side note, I'll come along on Vaell!)

No. Varian isn't even on Pandaria yet.

On what character? Larnira?
Anyhow, I feel like I must clear something up for you guys.
This is an individual event. Each character is to go on their own journey; though they are of course welcome and even encouraged to undertake this journey with other wanderers, in the end it is a journey of self-realisation.
There is not a set date when this event will be held. What you need to do in order to start your journey is to contact Paozi, trough mail or personally in his little office in Dawn's Blossom and he will send you on your merry way.
You can take as long as you'd like, with as many intervals as you'd like. You can take a year with intervals of months every time. The pace and complexity of it all is wholly up to you.
As you can blatantly see from the list, I will need some more teachers. For the time being though I will fill all for all the teaching rules trough clever use of haircuts and roleplaying addons. Meaning that you can now start whenever you like!
The ball is in your court.
