An introduction, I suppose :)
#1
Rainbow 
First and foremost: Tell us about yourself, as a player:
Well, I'm mostly just a casual player. I enjoy PvE over PvP, I'd really only PvP if it's part of an rp, or if I really feel like dying.Derp


What country do you come from? What is your primary language?:
Born and raised in the U.S! Primary language is English. :)

How did you get into Warcraft?:
To be honest I avoided WoW like the plague for the longest time. I had several friends in high school who played it who tried to get me for "recruit a friend". One literally told me that I "couldn't have a hobby/life" if i played. "Never miss a raid night, or you'll get in trouble" or "always post if you cant make it and MAYBE they'll forgive you." Something like that is a HUGE turnoff to whatever game is being talked about. It wasnt untill last year that I finally caved and tried the starter edition, mostly due to Mists hype and my boyfriend at the time. Got hooked like a fish.Tongue

How did you find us? Did anything in particular draw you to the server?:I found this server by a Google search for "Private rp servers" because i found that playing on private servers that didn't have roleplay elements to them were SUPER boring. The fact that it's a cata server makes it just that much better.


What kinds of roleplay do you enjoy?:
I'm game for anything, really, so long as my level allows for it. like, if i'm only level 10 i'm not gonna run off to Outland with someone. Typically at lower levels I enjoy a pint of mead in the nearest tavern.

What is your favorite race/class? Why?:
Class? Hands down Warlock. I enjoy casters/ranged classes in general, but i find that locks are the most fun to play. Enemy hitting you to hard? There's a curse for that. Wanna hit multiple enemies at once? There's a bane for that!
Race is a bit harder... Horde-side i enjoy Blood Elves. not for any real reason... it's just the race of my first character. Also it's an elf, cant really go wrong there. Alliance side, the Worgen. It's the coolest race Alliance side IMO.

What are your expectations of this server?:
All i'm looking for is a nice, casual roleplay experience where I can sit in a tavern when I get bored of quests and enjoy some ale and a good conversation.

Out of all of our rules and regulations listed on our server, which appeals to you the most?:
No Over-powered characters. There's nothing worse than getting into a "fight" with one of those guys that claim to have an "everything-proof sheild" because they're the sixth dragon aspect or something.

Did you know that we have a Mentor Program? It's entirely voluntary and you as a new player can sign up for it right now in your introduction! Are you interested in signing up to be assigned a Mentor? If so, say so here (Please enter at least "Yes" or "No"):
Yes, i would be interested. I'm no stranger to roleplay, but I'm no expert either. Some assistance in honing my skills would be appreciated!

Lastly, tell us a story! It can be short, it can be long; but most importantly, we want to see your work in action. Go!:
Time for Ahlexys' backstory! (WIP)
The destruction of the Sunwell was horrific. So many of our people were killed in Arthas' assault on Quel'Thelas, Including my father. All around us, we saw the ruins of our once great kingdom. Even worse still, we were cut off from our source of magic. My brother and I watched in horror as the few of us who survived grow ill, succumbing to their painfull addiction. We feared for our own sanity, and when Kael'thas vowed to find us a new source of magic, my brother followed him, hoping to find something to prevent his little sister from falling as so many others had. When Rommath came back, promising that our prince would lead us to paradise, I was hopeful. I held on to that for so long, that I would be reunited with my brother in a better world. Ah, but fate is crewel, shattering the faith of the hopeful in the worst of ways. When Kael'thas returned it was not to uphold his promise; it was to summon his demonic lord Kil'jaeden. The elves who had left with him returned, corrupted by foul demonic energies. I took up arms against them, furious that such a betrayal could be carried out by our prince. Many a "felblood elf" fell to the fury of my blade that day, including the only family i had left. My own brother, he who had cared for my safety, who had left for my sake alone, became one of those foul elves. He didnt even remember me. That day, I made a vow; I would not rest untill those who had turned my brother were slain. I took up the path of the Warlock... for what way is better to slay thy enemies, than with their own foul magics?
end of story. (this will likely end up as a character profile after some feedback and editing)

Is there anything else you would like to add, ask, or otherwise clarify?:Not really. I look forward to sharing a drink with you sometime soon!Beer

Hello there, Ahlexys! Welcome to Conquest of the Horde!

I see you added the little rainbow there next to the thread title. Cute. :3

Yeah, powergaming is the worst thing. I totally agree with you, there. Luckily (or to the dismay of many veterans), CotH has always had a pretty level power-ceiling where you're unable to flaunt superiority over someone else without question and the server staff won't enforce power levels one way or the other. We rely on people using their own sense of fairness, and step in only when that fails to lead to a peaceful resolution.

I'm glad to hear you're interested in our Mentor Program! I'll be putting your name on the roster and you'll receive a PM by your assigned Mentor as soon as one's been assigned to you, which should be quickly arranged! :)

Remember to register your in-game account in the Account Management page with the exact information you registered your forum name under.


As per standard approval procedure, I'm going to link you to a few nice places that it certainly doesn't hurt if you double-check and make yourself extra familiar with. These are the Rules and Policies, as well as the FAQs. They've got a bunch of vital information in them.

Without further ado, welcome to the server and I hope we'll see you around!

Happy RPing!

Love,
Overseer Loxmardin
