Tell us something about your (role)playing experience:

I`m new to Role-Play but I have a friend that helps me. ( Kronnor )


And finally, please write a short story and/or IC introduction about your character:

Uggnath was born in hiding within the Warsong Clan, his parents being fierce warriors. When he was somewhere near five years old, a young orc arrived at their hiding place. They soon learned he was from the Frostwolf Clan, but raised as a gladiator by the humans.
After a while the Frostwolf and Warsong clans united to fight against the humans and liberated the other orcs. The new-founded Horde travelled to Kalimdor, and Uggnath followed with his parents.
After Orgrimmar was founded Uggnath was raised and trained by his father. He became very skilled with a bow and enjoyed going hunting. When he was still a teenager he went with his father in Thunder Bluff on a hunting trip. While hunting he stumbled upon a wolf den and was soon attacked by a dire wolf. He managed to kill it with a dagger, but he heard a noise in the den. There it was a small cub, a couple weeks old probably. He took the cub, feeling guilty for killing it's parent and raised him as his companion. He named the wolf Ulfang, and as the times passed their bond became stronger.
After Uggnath reached adulthood he went to Northrend with his father to fight for the Horde. They settled in Conquest Hold, in the Grizzly Hills, where Uggnath's father was slain by the Scourge.
After the fall of the Lich-king, Uggnath decided to stay in Conquest Hold, so he can be close to his father's resting place.

He stayed in Conquest Hold since then, helping around the fortress, hunting for meat and furs, waiting for a new opportunity in life to reach him.

Hello Uggnath and welcome to the forums! I read through your application and I've noticed a few issues with your story that aren't correct when it comes to the WoW timeline.

- In your application you point out that your character is born a couple years after the Second War. that means that your orc would be born in around.. year 8 (This is fine!). Around year 18 Thrall learns about the Warsong (Assuming the "They soon learned he was from the Frostwolf Clan, but raised as a gladiator by the humans." is Thrall) and seeks them out to form the "New Horde". By that time your character will be 10, not 5!

- At the end of your story, you mention the following: "After the end of the Third War, Uggnath decided to stay in Conquest Hold, so he can be close to his father's resting place.". The third war starts at give or take year 20. This is when the New Horde travels to the unexplored lands of Kalimdor. Two years later, the third war ends. During this time, the Horde hasn't set foot on Northrend, nor is Conquest Hold founded yet. The Horde sets foot on Northrend at the start of Wrath of the Lich King. (At the earliest.) So this part in your application doesn't add up with the WoW timeline.

Looking further at your application, we would also like to know what your orc has been doing during more recent events (Those being during the pandaria campaign, the Siege of Orgrimmar and the more recent Iron Horde drama.) Is your character effected by these events or does he simply stay stationed in Conquest Hold?

If you have any questions about the orcish timeline, visit this link: http://orcsoftheredblade.com/forum/index.php/topic,2438.0.html

Once you've made the changes to your application, shoot me a PM on the forums or bump your application with a new post so we are made aware of changes being made!

Strength and Honour,

Hello Uggnath! I've read through your application and I'm pleased with the changes that you've made. So next up is your IC interview.The goal of the IC interview is for your character to establish contact with the tribe's members. Here is a list of orcs you can do your IC interview with: http://orcsoftheredblade.com/forum/index.php?topic=2440.0 Just nudge any of these people and if they have time they'll be happy to help you!

Right now the Tribe is a bit lost, so I'd like to request you to wait patiently in Conquest Hold until we arrive there. The tribe will be arriving in Conquest Hold on the 15th. If you do feel that the wait might be too long, then give me a nudge in-game and we can talk about possibilities for you to join up with us earlier!

Strength and honour,

- Rrosh'tul Gridish Rimeweaver.
