Backstory
When Arthas Menethil started his unholy crusade, the continent of Lordaeron experienced a catastrophe that influences still. What was left from Arthas' days, was the Scourge with a new Lich King and no clear command structure. However Scourge has still influencing players, who are in the service of the Scourge.
An unnamed paladin wrote the following on a parchment at Deatholme before his execution and rise as a death knight, and now he carries it with him, remembering who he was and why he wrote it. He has become all that he fought against in his past life and goes on doing the very things he so eagerly tried to prevent.
On the parchment reads:
OOC
(The) Undead Scourge is a guild on rp-pvp realm Defias Brotherhood. It's on both Alliance and Horde factions. Due to same guild names are not allowed in the game, the Alliance guild name is "The Undead Scourge" and Horde "Undead Scourge".
However these two guilds work as one idea and story, positions within the Scourge and possibly players. It would be nice for each member to have a char on both factions, since there may be use for being able to take part in rp pvp against Horde and Alliance players as a member of the Scourge faction, which so is in conflict with the Alliance and Horde. Also for rp, some alt at least on the other faction guild would be recommended.
The idea of (The) Undead Scourge is to be in roleplay a part of the Scourge faction or what is left of it, after the long wars against the living and Forsaken factions. Also the Lich King has changed from Arthas Menethil to Bolvar Fordragon in the process, and some of the Scourge might not know this change in the Lich King's true indentity.
However the Scourge is being guided by other players as well than only by the Lich King, who can use their power over the mindless Scourge. There are Scourge, who can also work without the Lich King's influence, who are mostly what the members of the guild(s) (The) Undead Scourge are made from. So the members of the guild are either living characters belonging to the Cult of the Damned or characters who have been risen as undead. Yet the game character doesn't need to be an "undead" so Forsaken or a Death night, but they can be any character with the exception of paladin class. One only has to roleplay the character to be an undead or a living member of the Cult of the Damned.
The reason for excluding paladin class from the Scourge is for the respect for the players wanting to be an in character paladin, and so there is needed to have some borderline with respect to players playing a paladin, to not make the paladin ingame class a member of the Scourge, which might cause sort of corrupted paladins, when such corruption should only happen via raising a dead paladin, when the character becomes undoubtedly a death knight and using light spells aren't suitable for a death knight at all.
So the idea is to build a Scourge faction for purposes of rp and pvp. Possibly to work as a villain in rp also in Alliance and Horde cities. There is a position of infiltrator to be used specifically for such purposes. Also rp pvp is very possible for the Scourge. They can attack as (A) Scourge against Forsaken rp guilds at Lordaeron for instance, or as (H) Scourge the Lordaeron loyalist rp guilds or other guilds situated at Lordaeron. This can be done easily for example cross realm on the bigger rp realm Argent Dawn, which has been tested to work usually. Also Northrend, the main location of the Scourge in game, has possibilities to do rp and why not pvp too.
The guild(s) can use addon called, "RP Connect" for corssfaction communication, when needed, so when the (A/H) Scourge would have players from both factions in roleplay. This will need some testing first how to use it the best, but this is possible also.
So take part in Scourge as a villain guild, it might get to become an interesting venture to start with.

On the parchment reads:
The living and the dead will hear this echo from the past, that will chill their senses and suffocate the air around them. The Scourge, there will be another day, when mortals will face their fate to become part of the Scourge as undead or their will trapped as damned living.
The Scourge in all its forms echoes of its past and will try to bring forth another unholy crusade. They are bound to do so. Not by oath or through service, but to annihilate all life on Azeroth and so to make the living to suffer.

Here are the positions within the Scourge (guild), these can be revised when needed. Suggestions for additional ranks are welcome.
Command structure
IC
There is not currently command sructure in the Scourge, but Lich King (Bolvar) has the most power over the mindless undead Scourge at Northrend, but the mindless Scourge in Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor are guided by the living members of the Cult of the Damned. Also some other players in the Scourge not being mindless undead can work on their own without being dominated only by the Lich King.
OOC
The guilds Undead Scourge (H) and The Undead Scourge (A) have no mindless Scourge in their ranks, but the members of the guilds are in character somewhere higher above the mindless Scourge. They are part of the remnants of the higher ups in the chain of command, who can work without the will of the Lich King. The guild members can so work individually and there is no clear chain of command. All have their specialties and abilities, and they can work on their own and together by serving the Scourge.

A hooded dwarf travels from Kharanos to Ironforge on one evening. During the next night a hooded shady looking individual flyis with his flying mount down into the woods near Kharanos and picks up something from a tree trunk. All traces in the snow from the scene have been hastily wiped off.
A scroll is received after two days from the incident by the Scourge Officials at Deatholme, Ghostlands.

Unknown wrote:-Restricted content, only for the view of the ”capital” officers-
-If the seal is broken by accident, your ”life”will be in danger, if you read the contents of this scroll. So don't event try, just stop here and give thorough explanation to the receiving officers, and you may be spared.-
Important mission advances
I have learned so far some possible targets and wish to send information for evaluation.
-Kingdom of ”Lucky” has several outright targets. Some go to a gathering that takes place at their citadel weekly. Well armed though and sharper than miself. I suppose, no easy targets can be found from those who ”shine”.
-Home of the ”Coin Makers” seems like a good location to ”make friends”. I won't give more information at this time, due to security. Difficult to get in for the ”less lively” and looks to have more stubborn targets, who might not be easy to ”make livelier”. Suggestions welcome, how to proceed.
Important
-Do not let anyone know who has sent this.
-After writing this, will store it for the courier and hope this scroll will be in good shape and sealed with the seal of the ”unknown” in tact when it arrives to ”capital”.
PS.
Waiting for further orders within four days, send those to the same hollow, where this scroll was stored for the courier.
