Wedding of two people...

[GeneralDefyre]

Awesum! Hope to see many familiar faces at the event! Also, to those of you who may or may not attempt to crash it *cough*
There will be guards for safe-keeping purposes, so if you try anything stupidly amazing...they will laugh.. I mean fight back..

[GeneralDefyre]

Sorry for the double-post, but a few changes have been made. The ceremony is now in Elwynn forest, not Ashenvale, and Guard's will still be there to preserve order.
So be wary all you mongrels and ebil peoples.

[FlyingSquirrel]

Shivala will still be there.

As some rumors reached my ears I've been led to believe that some people are going to crash by the wedding only for the sake of trolling.

Don't.

Just don't.

It's a rather private event, it's a wedding of two people and unless you are somehow related to the couple or to the invited, it is hardly possible that your character will find about it, or even go with intention of disrupting. Not only because of the presence of the guards but have in mind that the bride, while a now-happy bride, is still a Death Knight, that will not hesitate in any instant to employ extreme violence towards those who wish to disrupt a rare moment of happiness. That said the groom is also likely to be pissed at the troll and react; If you also count some of the invited are close friends to the new-weds, then your lovely troll char is 95% unlikely to escape the area alive.

That said I wish those who plan to attend a fun and pleasant time.

Isn't that how the majority of RP on this server goes, though? If someone wants RP, they just pop up anywhere where the RP is with no regards to time or where it is. At least, that's how it was when I played.

Anyways, you're choosing places near towns (That is, if you're talking about the lake near the Logging Camp), and characters can have a variety of reasons to go to any town, and then just follow the swell of people because they think something's big going down.

Yes, I agree with you on this, random people will show up to see what is going on, but I rarely doubt this will be a large number. Besides, what kind of person goes into a forest, sees a wedding and thinks "hey, I'm going to make everyone in this place really pissed, because I'm suicide like that!". Other than that all characters are welcome to come and go as they see fit, what I ask here is just for the '"troll" players to not stop by simply to disrupt the ceremony.

I feel like a jerk for being yet another having something to comment on, but I hope by guards, that you don't mean the Stormwind NPC guards and just blades for hire that you've payed. They wouldn't come along to a random person's wedding - especially one with a Death Knight involved.

But on another note, if they don't want you there, then don't show up. They don't want troll people there and if you do then they can rather easily report you for disrespecting their wishes.

Yes, GeneralDefyre stated that Vitaly hired guards for the wedding (probably something common for weddings not in town). I'm not sure of how many they are but I'm guessing it's a handful of hired blades. ^^

Well, you'd be surprised. The first NA event got upwards of 20 people, and only 10 were NA (Yes I was watching). Also, maybe they wouldn't think like that, but many, such as the vast majority of my characters, would try to stop someone from wedding a Death Knight and try to kill either the Bride, the Groom or even the nearest Caster, depending on the Character for different thoughts.

For example, let's take Shivala.

Shivala would probably follow the swell of people into the woods, or fel, even just be the wanderer. As of late, with Fala'thorei gone and Sagi gone as well, she has nothing to do. So she spends the vast majority of her time wandering Human lands, as that's where Sagi spent the majority of his time. If she were to see a swell of people leaving a camp, then she would follow them to see what's going down. Upon seeing a Death Knight marrying a living person, she would be confused, then sit down and probably kill the living person in his/her sleep because they're so stupid, and Shivala doesn't like stupid people. Although, in her mind, everyone that's not a Kaldorei is stupid, but Death Knights are harder to kill.

Anyways, last post because then Hawk will probably get all up in my grill.

[dastmo]

Killing someone, because he/she is stupid... that is some sane and mature behavior! Especially for a Night Elf, whose kin respects life above all.

Anywho, just wanted to point that out and wish you guys good luck with the event. Hope it runs smooth!

[Uthaniel]

Aight. I feel myself compelled to state my opinion here, as I've finally believe I found words to describe it.

Both sides are in the wrong.
One ICly, the other OOCly.

Danalthar, don't mess with someone's event if they don't want you there. That's to just about anyone that intended on "trollin'" the wedding in any manner. That's disrespectful above everything else, and well, our first rule and all that jazz.

But at the same time, take heed Death Knights aren't well liked by the people. A Death Knight getting married, unless they -wanted- to get eventually mobbed and murdered over it, would likely keep things in secrecy. They wouldn't make their relationship open, in the off chance they even got in one in the first place.

Everyone's someone. Maybe your character would do that. But consider the people that only know death knights when they were murdering their families, and think people that are -crazy- to just jump on you with a pitchfork and murder you in a gruesome manner "worthy" of your kind, but simply can't because of their king's/warchief's order.

When they saw, poor townsfolk, a death knight marrying a "normal" person, they would likely reach the conclusion of the poor sap being downright insane, being threatened by the death knight in some way, or that he's some sort of scourge-lover who is pretty much trying to show the world their devotion for the Lich King by marrying one of his knights.

In Option one and two, this would likely end with a lot of prejudice. A lot of it. Really.

It's pretty much like IRL marrying say, someone who went to jail for mass-murder and somehow got out without being killed by either law or other inmates.

And then being public about his felony.

People just would -not- take kindly for that. Humans react -aggressively- towards what they -fear-, it's in our nature, and it's something some people just can't fight against. Racism, prejudice, are born from utmost fear of what you cannot understand.

And most people can't understand death knights. Or someone wanting to marry one.

That's all. Otherwise, good luck with the event and whatnot.

[GeneralDefyre]

Thanks for the supportive comments guys, and also..as a note. This wasn't really a super-announced event for all the world of Azeroth to converge to.. It is a wedding, where all friends/family are invited to join. If someone does end up following the group to see what's up, they'll be rathered surprised, sure, but I highly doubt someone will outright slay the couple during a ceremony...especially one with guards surrounding the area.
Also.. Unless a character or NPC has amnesia to the extreme, or short-term memory loss, they would know that the Scourge is dead, and that not all Death Knights are rampaging horrors of ebil.

That is all.

*EDIT-Please note, the event is phased! Summons will be provided for those attending the wedding!*

[GeneralDefyre]

Well, the event went as planned, and it went wonderfully! I truly hope everyone had a great time there, and I'll be trying to start up some Traveler's Rest Events once Vitaly returns from Dalaran with Epsilon.
