Hand of Sylvanas

[Lendri]

"Our time will come."

The Dark Lady has her own troubles to attend as we do ours.
We cannot push away the fact that our territory is constantly being
invaded by the Scarlets, and the orcs wallow away in our capital city.
We shall act for the Queen and let our blades strike true,
letting the Alliance and Horde know that we are a force to
be reckoned with.

How did the Hand come to be..?

Allen Sullivan Mchelmer has devoted all of his time to service the Banshee Queen, Lady Sylvanas. His primary work is in the Silverpine Forest as an investigator to the mysterious disappearances of Deathstalkers in the area. As he would journey from the Sepulcher to the Undercity quite often delivering reports, his hatred grew for the Kor'kron guard inhabiting the capital.
He believed that they had no right being there as we did not have forces lurking around in the other Horde capitals, watching their every moves. But the betrayal of Grand Apothecary Putress gave them reason to say otherwise.
Allen, determined to get the orc guard removed from the city one day, has devised a plan to gather loyal servants under Sylvanas to embark on charity missions for the orcs and slowly regain their trust. Along with providing aid to the orcs, their help will not stop there. He also plans to situate the Forsaken in other areas of the Eastern Kingdoms to expand their territory within Azeroth.
As these goals may seem far away, this does not slow Allen down as he will stop at nothing to protect and secure the title of the once partially-trusted Undead. He calls his organization the Hand of Sylvanas.
His ambition will drive him to rid the Undercity of the Kor'kron and begin to true intentions of the Dark Lady...

What are our goals?

Our main goal is to redeem the Forsaken from their past infamy by offering assistance to the orcs and regain their trust.
Secondary goals include fending off approaching Scarlet and Syndicate forces, aswell as protecting Horde lands from the Alliance.

What events will there be?

I know what some people may be thinking right now; This is a forsaken guild. How are you going to get events up and running? Well good news, everyone! We have already successfully done afew events within the guild with our active members, with many other action-packed daily adventures.
Events include anything from simple delivery missions to full-scale defensive operations carried out by the Hand. We also have reconnaissance assignments to give more of a variety to the guild and give those sneaky undead something other than humans to smack on.

How does ranking go?

Based on character actions ingame, you will be placed in a line of rank-ups according to character behavior. This system is unique, as you do not work for a rank like in other guilds. You achieve the suitable rank that fits your character most closely in terms of how they proceed with actions in roleplay.

There are four paths for your Forsaken to merge into as you progress with character development;

• Defensive Branch - Characters who display protective actions over others and escort unarmed or weak travelers would be most suitable for this branch.
  Assault Branch - Characters who excel in fighting Alliance and partake in upclose combat with enemies, and do not take lightly to 'beating around the bush' would fit into this category.
  Elusive Branch - Characters who are sneaky and silent on their toes whilst around a potentially dangerous situation would land on this branch with no problem!
  Diplomatic Branch - Characters who show a sense of reasoning and would rather peaceful encounters over violent ones will be placed in this group.
  

The Defensive Branch rank-ups: Squire->Guard->Knight
The Assault Branch rank-ups: Assailant->Warrior
The Elusive Branch rank-ups: Scout->Infiltrator
The Diplomatic branch has one rank, which is the Adjudicator.

How would I come across Hand of Sylvanas ingame?

We do public events to attract other undead to help us in missions. Some posters were placed around all the Forsaken cities and encampments, letting people know of the group. Allen resides usually in the Sepulcher and is very approachable about the subject concerning the organization, so all you need to do is contact him!

Rules of the guild and how you can qualify for joining

All you need to do is be a Forsaken and a loyal servant to Sylvanas. It has been confirmed that Light Users are highly unfavored amongst the Forsaken, so these certain characters will not be allowed to join the guild. Allen believes that everyone in their bidding to Sylvanas is equal, and no one is seen as a 'higher being.' So with that said, there is still order within the guild during missions and Allen is still the organization Overseer, he just does not see himself as being a higher person than the others in the guild.

• Please be respectful to all members in the guild. We don't want any drama.
  Know your grammar. I'd like to keep the guild as professional as possible.
  Be active! This is the most important part of joining a guild! If you are inactive for more than 2 weeks without notice to the guild leader, you will be removed from the guild until you are able to become more participative.
  Learn the lore of the forsaken and familiarize yourself with Sylvanas. This is a guild surrounding her.
  

Updates will be posted here aswell as any events that may be happening in the future until I can get a sub-forum accepted. Any questions can be asked to either Lendri or Allen, as I am on them most of the time.

Awesome work, both as written as in aspect!

I'd totally join if I weren't already in. :P

Just a... minor error in your wording. Though, of course, it's entirely possible that you meant it to be so.

However, "We shall act for the Queen and let our blades strike true,
letting the Alliance and Horde know that we are not a force to
be reckoned with". I think it's likely that didn't meant to add the "not" in there. It sort of... gives the wrong impression.


Just a nit-pick!

I'm sorry, I can't read that blue D:
