A Home for a Hobby

[Ural]

Spoiler:

I usually like to think that even if my horde of alts don't get RP, they do keep themselves busy. Here's a brief summary of current events. Feel free to contact me if something perks your interest for RP!

Ural Highstone keeps busy in Stormwind. In between training, writing in his journal, and trips to the tavern he occasionally works on his prospecting.

Tikar Wildseer is fairly active in Ashenvale. He exercises, trains and meditates his way into deeper understand of the path of the Twin Bears. He can usually be found hanging out with Corchel and his friends during his idle time.

Brohn Stonehart is missing in action. Last seen was in a couple months ago Hearthglen. Best guess is he went home to Khaz Modan, as it was heavy on his mind before he disappeared.

Willard Kimble continues his job hunt. It is an all consuming project of his. He travels in Southern Eastern Kingdoms in his quest for decent pay.

Irogh was rocked by a sudden and profound shift in his shamanistic abilities. His calls have been downright ignored of late which has affected his confidence. The Orc is now in Northrend trying to connect the end of the Third War to this mysterious phenomenon.

Valda continues to struggle as a solo entrepreneur crafting shadoweave clothing. It's really a narrow market and the economy just isn't there. She is found in the less well known places of the world.

Wanda Kimble took a quick trip to Northrend after a recent botched mission. Now at peace she prepares to leave for Outland in search of a fel-iron smith.

Kalah was recalled to Darnassus for her monthly review. She views these as a fresh start, to put her recent failures behind her and strive for improvement. She continues to work on her combat form and relaxes with a few hobbies.

Dazehl hangs out in the Barrens with her sister Shimak. Her current occupation is harassing the Venture Trade Company. She spends her free time idle over schematics and a mug of grog.

This song was written by the author with her husband, who lost a brother when he was younger. The song's attitude really fits with Wanda. It's a tribute to one of her only friends, Velissa Blackfinger.

With a heavy footfall the plated visage of Wanda steps out of a Death Gate into the sparse halls of the Ebon Hold. With grim determination the Death Knight marches towards the balcony of Acherus. She coils shadow and frost magic into a dropped sack of Corpse Dust from her palms and begins to construct a Bone Gryphon. Without sparing a glance back to the hallowed halls, Wanda flies off. Her flight pattern suggest to the far north. It is an eerily quiet flight on the Gryphon as the Death Knight wraps her mind around the recent events.

A Sentry peers up as a Bone Gryphon circles before landing in Fort Wildervar. A mule brays in the background as the skeletal beast lands with a thud. The Sentry approaches the dismounting Knight and salutes. “Hail Knight of the Ebon Blade! What brings you to the frontier lands?”

Wanda coldly replies as she ties the reins to a hitching post, “Just here to pay my respects.”

The Sentry’s happy expression fades a little, “Oh. Well if you need anything, my name’s Bruce.”

The Death Knight turns her gaze over her shoulder at the man. Her runic blue eyes emanate from below the shadow of her hood. The Sentry decides that it is best to give the woman some space and returns to his post. Wanda leaves the Bone Gryphon after a moment and turns for the exit. Her heavy footfalls prelude the dread mission in her mind. Under the careful scrutiny the Death Knight passes past the two posted Sentries and walks down a path that takes her around Caldemere Lake. She only spares the water a passing glance. It is still and quiet. It reminds Wanda of peace, though the feeling escapes her. The path begins to caress the edge of Frostblade Peak alongside the vast Frozen Sea. It is a little known path that connects the Howling Fjord and Grizzly Hills. Wanda approaches a bluff just off the path and lifts her gaze to the bright and shimmering morning sky.

After a short pause she approaches the edge. She leans over the edge and peers down. She shifts her weight back onto her heels and lets out a hallow sigh. How easy it would to join you.. Leave this accursed body behind. Wanda unties a strap holding a bulging cloth sack to her belt and holds it in one hand. She stares at it for a moment before opening the string that holds it shut. The Death Knight’s gauntlet grips the bottom of the sack as she quickly overturns it. Ash and soot spill out of the bag and for a few minutes, drift off according to the various currents of the wind. Wanda watches the ashes until they disappear to the depths below.

Her deathly voice echoes into the vast expanse below, ”Farewell sister of death. May you have the rest I’ll never find.” The Death Knight takes a relic from her belt and holds it in both palms. She stares into the blade before gripping it tightly in a hand. She quickly jams it into the ground and departs just the same.

Here's a brief summary of current events. Feel free to contact me if something perks your interest for RP!

Ural Highstone has joined the Frostbrand for some time now. In his down time he trains with his new two-handed mace. Rumors have it he has been visiting Ironforge when he can stomach the portal.

Tikar Wildseer has joined the Ash Wardens to help defend this homeland. He still travels around a lot, though tries to keep in touch. He's been missing for a couple days, last known location was the Frostfire Hot Springs in Winterspring.

Brohn Stonehart has sort of retired to Loch Modan. He left the Black Harvest, but doesn't feel ready to return home just yet.

Willard Kimble got fired from his last job. Rejected, he has now accepted work from House Silverburg. He looks to complete his Priest training in the Church, among other things.

Irogh is back in Orgrimmar. Northrend was a good trial for him, but he's once again looking to serve the Horde in whatever capacity he is able. The Orc is still lost when it comes the spirits, but has decided that is best left to the spiritual experts.

Valda travels with a wealthy gnome, Shawnee, as a bodyguard. Now that she has the means to, she moonlights as a sort of dark adventurer; Checking into leads or corrupted areas for sources of power, or at least to keep her edge. Currently she has been traveling with the gnome around the major capitals.

Wanda Kimble continues to support the Legion to further her own power. She plots her revenge against her nemesis. The Death Knight looks for others who likewise have been betrayed by the Holy Light.

Kalah was offered a big break, and was transferred to the Ash Wardens from formal military work. She hopes to train under Nuadon with her new moonglaive and serve her country to the best of her abilities. Last heard she was going on a hunt with Corchel.

Dazehl has given the Venture Trade Company a break. She returned to Durotar to help her kin retake the Echo Isles.

Kurin Sommerlot hangs around Silvermmon and Dalaran looking for interesting people to talk arcane magic to. Occasionally he finds solace in the major landmarks of his kin.

In a dark workshop deep within the Catacombs Valda hangs up a new black and blue tabard. She looks at it for a moment and ponders to herself the meaning of it. The tailor unfurls some blue cloth and gets to work. The skilled tailor seems to be working together a matching uniform. Hmm.. Reigen. You pulled it off and offer me the same chance. To turn my life around. Try and live a normal life. Is it possible? Probably not, but should be interesting to try it out anyway. I just need an alias..

Valda takes up some golden thread and weaves in into the fabric in various places. Some bright accents should help bring about trust.. and goes well with this light blue.

I haven't used my last name since that day. Bennett. Hmm.. Miss Bennett? Heh. Why not. If I actually manage to pull this off then maybe I'll have a fairy tale ending like Reigen.

Pah. Not likely. I'm sure I'll be harassed by a Paladin my first day back to civilization. Which reminds me; I told Reigen I'd check out Elwynn Forest. Guess that'll be my first stop. No one's going to miss me here anyway.

The woman reaches for a glass of whiskey and takes a gulp of the foul liquid. She spends the rest of the night alone in the workshop.
