Battlefield: Plagueland
#1
No worse place for man, orc, elf or any other to find themselves. Lands once hailed for their purity, their beauty, are now revered only by Death and his sickly comrades. Lordaeron was what we once called this vast kingdom, but in these dark days it is known as none other than the Plagueland.

Some say to abandon it. Some say to let the land burn along with the wretched corpses that now call it home, but the spirit of man was never so easily quenched nor have the Scourge ever been so easily defeated. To this day many debate if it was bravery or stupidity that brought us out here, but the past remains irreversible. The future, however... We stand upon the crossroads of destruction and salvation.

The King may be dead, but it takes only good men to laze about for evil to prevail. Let apathy dwell no more in this humid air. Let the haze lift, let the torches burn deep into the midnight oil, let us sharpen our swords and polish our arms, let us bleed every last drop of ichor out of the brash bastards that so dare call this land their hive! To arms, my brothers. To arms, my sisters! Evil waits for no dawn nor dusk, nor shall we! Let us harken ‘War!’ from the herald’s trumpet at the break of every hour! Let us knock upon the doors of Stratholme and drag Rivendare through the streets with the chains of his own occult!

-Lord Maxwell Tyrosus


BATTLEFIELD: THE PLAGUELAND
[Image: 1384135011032_zpsb20fc6ca.png]

A struggle, rekindled.
War dawns upon the wretched plaguelands this day! Through the years the Argent Dawn has crusaded it’s way across Azeroth, championing the cause of every mortal mind- to fight back the scourge and its twisted masters. From the harrowing halls of Icecrown to the desolate sands of Sithilus crusaders of every make and mark have battled the ultimate corruption of undeath, and now it is time to land the decisive blow. The struggle of the Plaguelands was once passive. Neither side dared wage too furious a battle for the risk in these lands were far too great, however now we can no longer afford a simple, longing gaze. Now is the time to act.

It's time to set these wretched groves aflame with Light! It's time to reap bounty from the land! It's time that death no longer dwells in the den of the living! Join the Crusade in it's efforts. Camps idle about the land, unused, infested with scourge or idle hands. Free them from their shackles! Stride across the land as a giant strides across the plains, let no inkling of corruption shelter away from your glory! Bring an end to the reign of death, my friends! Herald into this world a time of prosperity never seen before!



"I remember when the lands were field with verdant greens where life springed regardless of the seasons. Lordaeron has fallen, but it is far from dead. We are slowly retaking what was lost, even with the help from those who once opposed us in war. Though we still have much to cleanse and free what the Scourge has taken, I look forward to the day my sons will see the life that teemed the lands like I did in my time.

"You Will Die Alone!"

Huddled far in the depths of Stratholme, Lord Aurius Rivendare sits atop his wicked mount, endlessly patrolling about the streets, affirming his iron grip upon the wretched plaguelands and it's undead inhabitants. Every ghast, ghoul and abomination answers to his unholy call. One will have to carve their way through a gracious amount before they can even hope to test the mettle of his runeblade.

"
This place is disgusting, let's clean it up.

"Never Fight Alone!"
[Image: screenshot_104_zps82d8786a.png]
Fresh from the bloodshed of Northrend, Crusade Commander Entari makes his return to the Plaguelands as the Highlord's Hand of Judgement. Assuming command of Tyr's Hand and all of it's forces, Entari looks to wage a war to end all strife in the once prosperous lands of Lordearon. Though, he'll need the effort of a great many if he's going to knock on Stratholme's door.

"I wish to see the tormented purged to their final rest at last in this damned place, so that we might finally be able to collect the bones of our fallen. They've gone unhonored for too long...far too long. I hope they're not angry at our delay.
"
-Crusader Champion Reigen Sunfire



To Arms!
There remains a great many ways to lend aid in this conflict. There are battles to wage, lands to scout, supplies to escort, crops to tend to, quarries to mine. From warfare to war supplies, there's a task for every man, woman and child. Take incentive and lead your own patrol across the land, smiting all Scourge that cross your path! Group with new allies and mark out territory for the Crusade's advance! Leave to lands beyond, heralding the great cause of the Argents to every capital of Azeroth!



"Though Balnazzar was defeated, his presence showed the true force behind the Scourge. A force easily forgotten, until they are raining fel meteors down on us. The Scourge, though deadly and corruptive, is just a tool in the great plots of the Legion.
"
-Ithildess Pyrefeather


OOC Summary

Spoiler:
For those of you curious about what all of the above is and are a bit too tired to read it all, or are perhaps a bit confused by it, there are no worries! The intention of Battlefield: The Plagueland is to establish a setting for all players to work with. I will be looking to run events of my own which will lead the Argent Crusade through a series of battles, however with the introduction of this 'war' I also want to closely work with you, the playerbase. I want to encourage you all to go out, explore the plaguelands, host your own events where you scout the land or fight baddies. Go huddle in campsites and tell war stories or help fend off an impending invasion. I'm (hopefully) giving you a malleable scenario to work with, no matter what your call to RP is.

If you're a DM looking for some help, if you're a player with a few ideas to how to improve Tyr's Hand, if you're just in general interested in getting RP started, PM me on the forums or find me on Skype. I'll be more than happy to help you get off the ground!

You know I'll be there.

But you may need to remind me when the events are commencing.

I want in.
Perhaps it is your imperfection that which grants you free will, that allows you to persevere against cosmically calculated odds. You prevailed where the Titans' own perfect creations have failed.

So it begins!

The first of many events will be beginning Friday, August 29th 5PM Server Time! Join the Crusade as they begin to seek out a means of survival in the desolate Plagelands. With no farmland, exhausted mines, weak lumber supplies and general discontent a great many have begun to contemplate if Tyr's Hand is even worth holding. During these tough times an enigmatic shaman known as Torran Earthpaw has spoken up amongst his peers, offering a faint glimmer of hope.

is this alliance only?

No, no, these events are open to both factions as the Argent Crusade is neutral.

A reminder and an update!

Tomorrow will indeed by the first of the Argent Events, however it will be at a new time more fitting for both players and myself. The new time is 1PM, Server Time.

As well, provided there are no distractions, I will be running a repeat event on Saturday at the same time.

See you on the battlefield!

I've had an alchemist/doctor who has been doing nothing for the last couple of months. If you accept non combat roles in these, I can offer him for plague research and aid for the troops.

From this point forward the Argent Crusade shall be continuing with events on a bit more of a consistent basis! Every Saturday there will be two events held: A first event at 12PM server time and a second at 5PM server time. With that said we will be seeing our next set of events this Saturday, November 8th. See you all there!

Due to some poor timing there will not be a 12PM event, only a 5PM event tonight.
