Name: Morgkha.
Level: 46 and climbing!
Tell us something about your roleplaying experience:
I've been on Argent Dawn since about Cataclysm, and have mostly RPed on Alliance side since Legion, most notably with Bladecrest Sentinels (you might remember me as Thornsong from Drums of War!) for about a year until the guild disbanded. I was the leader of Darkwood Sentinels before ultimately putting the guild to rest.
It's been a long time since I've been on Horde, and I wanted to return to the faction with the new content in BFA to see how the RP is on this side, as well as how it's changed since I was last involved in it. I have an outsider's perspective, but I want to see how things are by getting involved with it.
And finally, please write a short story and/or (IC) introduction about your character:
Morgkha is a Shadowmoon Orc in her early 50s. She fell ill with the Rex Pox as an child, and was quarantined to Nagrand along with her parents. While she survived the illness, it enacted a toll on the young girl - she was a sickly, somewhat frail child. In an effort to preserve what they could of the Shadowmoon's culture, she was trained as a Seer and Spiritualist to the best of her parent's abilities, rather than leave her on a mountainside as was suggested. She while forever withered by the disease, rendering her permanently weaker than she would be otherwise, she grew up to be relatively healthy by most accounts. She remained in Garadar until the events of The Burning Crusade, after a number of Horde soldiers garrisoned there returned to Orgrimmar. She left with them, curious as to this new world and eager to chart its skies. She has remained in Azeroth ever since, but departs to Nagrand upon the Kosh'harg to familiarise herself with the stars of her homeland, and commune with her ancestors.
In recent years, she's become consciously aware that she's heading into old age without having done a great deal in her life, and having yet to explore the strange world that many Orcs now call home. The turbulent times have left her bitter and jaded, as the teachings of the Shadowmoon have left her with a naturally peaceful inclination, and wishing to consult the stars and ancestors before major decisions. With her values clearly not reflected within the Horde at large, she wants to make something of herself in her old age, or at least be surrounded with people she feels a vague amount of kinship with.

Hey there Thornsong/Morgkha! Glad to see you giving the red side of the fence a chance after all those years in the blue field! :D I'm sorry to hear what happened to your guild, as I've been kept in the loop regarding its progress when I heard about what happened to the Bladecrests as well. Such a shame! But at least it might offer you a chance to give a different aspect of WoW RP a chance as well, yes? ^^
Having said that, your character concept looks great! It's not often that we get to welcome Shadowmoon orcs into our ranks, let alone seers or any kind of spiritualists that aren't shamans for that matter. So your concept would definitely be a welcome addition to our already colourful crew! :D Lorewise, everything appears to be in perfect order as well, so nothing more remains to be said but to tell you to go on ahead and contact any of our representatives in-game (any above New Blood rank can interview you) to set up an IC interview and get yourself introduced to the clan! Good luck, and hopefully I'll see you around soon!
