Conquest of the Horde

I wrote this
1) Because my phone for some reason refused to give me full internet access and I couldn't play WoW =(
2) Just to let people know how I work around IC and OOC conflicts.
The first being my main reason of course =P

Now, my main character, Aerian is a hunter 'n all, who hunts ALL types of creatures he reads about, so most of his battles are in fact IC events.
The problem with that is that the whole levelling thing is a bit of a barrier, blocking his story progression.

So, what I do, is simply have him ignore the "high level" creatures at first, with the excuse - He doesn't have enough knowledge on where to find them or how to kill them.

For example: being "level 22", he obviously can't fight a Frostbrood Matriarch (skeletal dragons in Icecrown). So to keep myself from having an IC/OOC conflict, I simply let him excuse himself from those battles because he either hasn't heard about them yet, doesn't know where to find them, or he doesn't have the necessary tools/hunting skills to be able to take them on.

Any comments or "thank you for helping me work around the IC/OOC problem" posts will be appreciated.

He can't fight it OOCly.. and probably not ICly either. It's an undead dragon. :P IC/OOC conflicts shouldn't really happen cause level doesn't matter ICly.

( Oh, and the server's down anyways, don't blame teh phone. )

He who enters Northrend = Killed on Sight by the scourge, as of now, Northrend is closed.

And I doubt someone would fight a dragon solo. Nonetheless, I don't think this will be too much of a problem and that people will have common sense to ignore the level stuff.

It is quite natural for any seasoned predator to recognise when he is outmatched, or I might assure you that he would not survive long enough to be termed 'seasoned', and so it is also appropriate to vanish back into the wild to await the time when you might strike on more favourable ground.

Regardless of level concerns, this is how you may IC extricate yourself from most any situation.
