The Question Thread

[Revax]

I made up Hellbrew right as MoP was announced, I had wanted to get back to RP for a long time and playing a fist-fighting drunkard orc just sounded too much fun to pass up on. Being a martial artist myself also served as an inspiration, as I like my characters to inherit a few of my own traits. I also like to play characters that hold some traditional traits of their race mixed with a little bit of strange. At the time, I was in awe of Sean Connery and his way of speaking and realized it would be a fun thing to add to Hellbrew.

Who is next?

[Regorn]

I was in great love in Wacraft Lore when I made Regor (later changed to Regorn). While I was RP'ing with the Thunderfury clan the character evolved slowly until he reach this point. Regor was far more joyful, drunk, talkative and less rigid then Regorn. The aspect of being a old Orc with lot's of knowledge was tempting so I rollplayed like that. The (first) minor shamanistic tendencies went to overdrive from "distrust the fel" to "burn the fel!". Regor would have no problem getting drunk in booty bay, wander up on a house and jumping down the water, Regorn will find such things to be foolish.

One more time!

[Azolg]

I wanted to RP out a Warlock who eventually gives up Fel magic, so that was the main basis of Makaroth here. I knew i'd make him a warrior eventually, and im looking forwards to fleshing out his character as time goes on!

Next!

[Kogra Windwatcher]

Not sure if I'm allowed to respond on a question that was originally mine but fuck it.
The idea for Kogra actually came during a meet up I had with two other guilds at the same time two years ago now in Sweden. We were all WoW players and someone brought the pen and paper roleplaying books with them. So we decided to play that.

most people wanted to play something crazy. We had a Murloc hunter, a baby seagiant, a dragonkin, a tauren rogue, a tauren druid, a naga priestess, a dryad, a high elf spellbreaker, a night elf priestess, and myself being the orc shaman. Whilst reading through the books, one particular arch-type (A differentiation from a certain class) caught my eye which was the Far Seer (I absolutely loved them in lore already). I wanted to build a character around it but did not make it for that campaign yet, so instead I went for the battle shaman.

The day after I came back from that meetup I went to Castlefest in the Netherlands and there I met some idiots who called themselves the Orcs of the Red Blade. They kept bugging me (Note that this is altered from what actually happened) whilst I just wanted to talk to Rhonya! After endless attempts at persuasion, I decided to give it a go. So the next day I was in the guild with the character that I wanted to give a try in Pen and Paper but never got to it. As for inspiration, I absolutely loved Drek'thar.

Too keep it fair, I'll bounce this awesome question once more.

[Bamm]

After my previous rp toon of a drunken overweight decadent party troll. So my inspiration was to be the opposite i wanted a more serious toon i wanted arkail to be a decent sort who was capable with magic honourable orc and all that. What i ended up with was Arkail not so great at magic or anything combat wise  and ended up being a forsaken loving monocled bookworm as it just played out. I really cant do rp without major character flaws i've found.

Bouncing the question down

[Gridish]

Main source of inspiration. To be honest, I didn't really base the character off anything. Gridish was my first RP character as well as my first WoW character in general, so while I played and RP'd him, I was also learning the game and its lore. If anything that's how Gridish turned into the Orc he is today really. Uncertain and freaky Orc that spent most of his youth around a human. Joining the Tribe, stilll learning the basics of Arcane magic and not knowing -too- much of, what would be concidered by Orcs as, general knowledge. As time went on and I learned more about the game and it's lore, Gridish grew as well. As for Lofty.. As to where Gridish is more the silent type, Lofty is just the all-out going counterpart of Gridish. He's also a great tool to just get the things that I would want to say that come to me, but wouldn't fit for Gridish.. I can just say them as Lofty *evil chuckle*.

Now to unbounce the question! Do you prefer dark meat, white meat or no meat at all?!

[Umaua]

Dark meat? You mean Red meat?

At anyrate I have no meat preference, but if I'd have to choose between the two. White.

Orange or Apple juice?

[Rashka]

Apple juice. Orange juice makes me feel nauseous, unless it's freshly made... The only time I've ever liked orange juice, was when I was in Thailand.

Eggcake, or chicken tart?

[Regorn]

If I eat egg, I vomit, so Chicken Tart

Near Sci-fi or far future Sci-fi?

[Mozrogg]

Ooft, that's a tough one. I enjoy near sci-fi, mainly for the interpretation of what society would be like in the not -too- distant future, but then far future sci-fi simply for all the whackyness that can come out of that!

Warhammer orcs, LOTR orcs, or WoW orcs!? And why?

[Srelok]

Wow Orcs. They're just so much more badass and not 1dimensional.

Pre- or post apocalypse?

[Mozrogg]

Mrm, pre apocalypse, post-apocalypse has been done to death right now in my opinion, I like to see the chaos right before the fall!

[Therak]

As Moz sucks and did not post a question...


I quite like post apocalyptic scenarios, it gives a very nice chance to explore morality and survival in a situation where everything familiar has been destroyed.


What weapon would you like to see fantasy use more of?

[Srelok]

We don't see enough slingshots imo, or blowdarts.

What's your fantasy alignment?

[Gridish]

Chaotic good I'd say D:

Pizza or Pasta?!
