Application Söhnen

[Söhnen]

Details of your Orc character;

Name: Söhnen Ghrult
Class: Warrior
Level: 6

Tell us something about your (role)playing experience:

Before the release of the Burning Crusade expansion, I used to be part of guilds, such as,- Order of Benedictus/Justice and Holy Lightbringers,
As you might have noticed from those listed above, I tried to follow the path of an noble, forgiving person.

- I have to announce twice that I do -not- have proper experience in roleplay apart from this, only the basic idea people get when watching some trailers & youtube videos.


Please write a short story and/or IC introduction about your character:

An Alliance convoy transporting gold, food and deserted pigs across the southern barrens towards their nearest stronghold, Theramore, in their attempt to ship these wares back to Stormwind, and bring these soldiers to the kings justice... As the pack moves deeper into the Barrens, where the ground is rougher, and the natures grasp becomes slightly unbareble, - no word is being by the escort guards, neither the pigs moan. As they do realize, that theyre moving across the Burning Legions ground, where danger is everywhere..

>In Meanwhile<

1) An young orc named Söhnen Ghrult wandering across Durotar, aiding his brethen in need, by performing tasks for them, as he started his adventure at the trails, his heartbeat changes as he knows he closes up towards, Ogrimmar, the destination in attempt to pledge the warchief his legeance.
As an boy, he trampled for this day to happen, as his caring mother promised that would be so, and he might just once become just like his father. Suhne, once killed striving for inmortality and glory.

2) As the young warrior completes his last request, and strumbling walks across the road towards ogrimmar, he couldnt keep his eyes away from the entrance gate for two minutes, power, glory he though, by the looks of it, it must be so. It didnt took long before the shivers came up, but worse than that, - would everything happen as the orc intended them to happen?, as he looks at the brutal orcs practicing, and the weird view in their eyes as they see him approach, the young Söhnen realizes, that he wouldnt last for more than five seconds, agianst any of those, - what use would the warchief have for him?, or..., what could he have at all? ..

3) After he wanders around, to nervous to do anything by communicating, the words spreads out, glory, death and power was calling, as it appears to be that an escort was nearly at the edge to overcrossing the southerns barrens into the northern. As hundreds of his brethern took off, following one another, Söhnen had to come along, he had to see it for hiself. He couldnt keep up the pace, as he three minutes later was about cross over Durotars bride, leading into the southern / northern edge of the Barrens, he finds himself, shaking, as the ground was pounding, the clouds were bloodied, rain was burning he looks up.... A field of people, hundreds, a thousend perhaps, raging, slaughtering eachother, as horde stands firm, and yet pushes the kings men by fine carried brethen work.

4) As he stands frozen, one of the orcs slowly walks towards him, walking with an red blade, as it was covered by blood, the orc shortly introduced herself as Rargnasha, she said with fury in her eyes -- FOR DEATH AND GLORY!, as they both engaged brutaly into the remaining pack.


I had to think twice before posting this stuff. I'm not good at it, and the ending reminds me abit of some cliche baby book.
I'm willing to learn though.
Thank you very much for reading this thing over, and I will respect your judgement.

Hello there once again! We briefly spoke in-game already, but it's nice to see you took the effort to go through an introduction here as well.

Your story has a good build-up and certainly shows you have potential for the RP kind of business! There are a few things I feel compelled to point out, however. First off, I believe it may be vital to point out that currently, the Red Blade tribe is not officially a part of the Horde as we know it, since they're about to join the rebellion against Garrosh, and have been exiled from the Horde for the time being. Therefore, we don't find ourselves in the Barrens or Orgrimmar as of now, nor fighting by the side of any of the Horde's warriors.

So having said that, it might be a bit unlikely that you would find Rargnasha out there in the Barrens, doing so. While we're on the subject of Rargnasha, it might be wise to point out that in-game, Rargnasha is in fact a 'he' (I'm not 100% certain what it is in real life, haw-haw!), so I'd be careful calling him a 'she' IC, where others might be listening.

Apart from that, I don't see all too much wrong with the application. I generally don't recommend RPing other people's characters in a story unless you've received their consent and your character's name sounds a little bit Germanic/Scandinavian, but I can overlook those little bits for the sake of giving you a shot in-game. So feel quite free to seek us out in character when you get the chance! Any member above New Blood rank can give you an interview, and should you be accepted, any officer rank can give you the official invite. Good luck out there.
