[23th of May] Dark Heart of Pandaria

Update: Patch confirmed to launch next wednesday.

Final date for the event: 21:00 on the 23th of May.

Contact me for calendar invites!

Beware: there will be spoilers for patch 5.3 in this thread. Consider yourself warned.

In patch 5.3, this happens.

Spoiler:

This event will have a rather large effect on my character, as I imagine it might have on other pandaren that have been sitting on the fence this expansion.

What I would like to do is, the day after the patch day (since I am always busy on wednesdays), is host an event in which Paozi asks for Alliance aid to investigate the digsite, after which the Horde and their nasty hole is discovered and all hell breaks loose. Horde blood will be shed. Allegiences will shift.

There's a lot of dramatic potential in this event, and I'd like to use all of it IC. Let me know if anyone in interested in sharing it with me: both Alliance soldiers, explorers and pandaren alike.

Depends on what day it will come out and how IRL stuff will be packed then. Will see seems fun though.

I think Ironforge could send some troops to aid with the investigation, such as Mountaineers.
I like the idea right there, Panda.

I don't think it'll be very fun, per se, as much as it'll be dramatic. There's nothing really quite funny or adventureous about this, I'm afraid.

As soon as the patch date is unveiled, I will take IC steps to realise this event. In the mean time, stay tuned.

IC drama can be OOC fun!

Im sure some Warden dks wont mind taking a small leave of absence from the EB to aid the alliance for the event. Ill get an exact number and let u know

Helmut would be very intrested in this weird science/magic! Surely he will be there. Hopefully I can be there on the update day.

You can most likely count on the support of The Adventurers Guild.

WARNING:

Since this event will take place entirely in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, you have to be at least level 90 and have unlocked the Golden Lotus dailies in order to be able to attend.

This might seem like a steep and unfair demand but as someone who has role-played in the Vale before I know how annoying it is to have to deal with the minefield of phasing that the zone is. I don't want to be bothered with such technicalities when I have a story to tell.

Level 90. At least have the Golden Lotus dailies unlocked.

If your require a particular Orc, give me a holler o/

good luck!

I'm afraid the only roles Orcs have to play in this event is to die, and I can't imagine that would be a very amusing one!

((This is going to be good.

If somebody wants to move along with this plot in preperation for Thursday, please do not hesistate to come to me - before I come to you!))

I'd love to come but probably can't make it due to early shift and early sleep meh.

Toss me a calendarinvite on Shandian anyway- just in case- if you will.

Havn't done golden lotus.

You don't need to do Golden Lotus, Erwt. Just unlock it. Easy peesy to do. Just go to Temple of White Tiger and talk to Anduin, do that quest line until the end.

You mean that quest where you have to fight those sha-reflection things of your own fears?

That's the one.

Ooooh, I've done those!

Well currently still in Northrend, so will see, but have fun on it either way!

...Hrmm.. I'll be there on Sujing Paopao.
