Leonides Intro

First and foremost: Tell us about yourself, as a player:
Firstly, I am a soldier. I will always follow my commanding officers orders. I love war, but war with comrades is even better. I will always do as commanded, even if it’s guard duty. My personal opinion is that there always has to be a chain of command.

What country do you come from? What is your primary language?:
I am from a beautiful country named South Africa. My primary language is Afrikaans, but I’m also fluent in English.

How did you get into Warcraft?:
My brothers are heavy Warcraft addicts. I just picked it up from them. To be truly honest, I was never a big fan of the game. Always thought it was a waste of time, all that levelling and time, for what? Just to start with a new character because the old one is at its epic peak. Then I gave it a try, and I was hooked. The gaming world of Wow was so WOW! The scenery was so awesome. From the woods to the dungeons. I couldn’t get enough. When I though it couldn’t get any better, the pvp proved me wrong. Players ambushing each other was so adrenaline rising action packed moments.

How did you find us? Did anything in particular draw you to the server?:
One of my brothers told me about a server that had RP. Then I did a little research and came to the drastic conclusion: I have to get into this server. A WOW with rp, totally unreal.

What kinds of roleplay do you enjoy?:
My best type of RP is surely playing part of a unit or battalion. From a little kid, I loved medieval stories and games like Skyrim. Following a commanders orders and working your way up the chain of command is exhilarating. I love the entire concept.

What is your favorite race/class? Why?:
My favourite race is and always will be humans. I always play human, doesn’t matter what server I join, that’s my race. Throughout history, mankind was and will always be present. The alliance stronghold is Stormwind. Nothing would please me more than being part of the force.

What are your expectations of this server?:
I want to have fun and play as a soldier following his commanders’ orders all the way. Just thinking of playing WOW in RP as a soldier makes me excited. The person who started this server was a genius.

Out of all of our rules and regulations listed on our server, which appeals to you the most?:
The one that appealed to me most was the rule where you have to be in character. I agree with this the most.

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.

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!:
It was a stormy day with bewildered weather and an uneasy wind. Three soldiers stood on a slain battlefield with dead bodies surrounding them. The first one was a lieutenant of the Zaragrath Army, a son of a nobleman with the name Zuricht Murisagath. He stood unscaled looking at the two other soldiers. The two battered soldiers were just lowly servants. Their names were Lobes and Hestaht. Neither of them had a last name. Born into slavery and bred to fight wars. Both was battered and full of cuts and bruises. Unlike the young nobleman, who watched from the rear, they had to fight to survive. The war was finally over. Zaragrath rose as the victor from the nine year long war against the neighbouring country Lebrouthe.
“You fought bravely and fiercely my young comrades” said Zuricht, full of pride and joy. He knew that if the 23rd battalion had failed, he would have had to lead his unit into battle.
“Thank You, Sir!” said the men hard and proud. They knew it was finally over and they could go home as true soldiers. Victors of war and mostly, living men.
“Will you serve the king of Zaragrath longer, or do you wish to leave the army and become your own men?” asked the young lieutenant.
Both looked at each other and Lobes answered:” Please let us serve this country we love so much further, Lieutenant. Nothing would please us more”.
“You are true soldiers, no legionnaires of Zaragrath. I will inform the general of your great battle” said Zuricht proudly.
“Let’s move out!” came the command.
Both men fell into line and marched to the lieutenants’ battalion.
Lots of stories were told of the two men’s journeys. Their name became legends.

Is there anything else you would like to add, ask, or otherwise clarify?

Throm'ka, potential recruit!

You have taken a tremendous step with this submission! You will receive an 'official' response in due time, but meanwhile you may wish to ensure you've reviewed the following:
  • Rules (Remember, ignorance is no excuse in the case of rule-breaking! Don't make the Peon Overseers lash you with the whip any more than necessary!)
  • Policies (There are some policies that may be rather uncommon, so if you have not yet checked them then spare a moment to do so!)

Some extra reading that may be of use:
Soon, you should receive a reply to your submission from one of the Peon Overseers informing you of whether you are a suitable candidate for Peonship. Be patient! Just review the above information and a response will come before you know it! As an aside, I think Peon Leonides has an... er... 'interesting' ring to it, eh?

Hello Leonides, and welcome to COTH!

If you haven’t already, please do make sure to double-check the rules and policies so you’re for sure familiar to the server’s expectations! If you have further questions, I recommend giving this guide a read, as it contains a lot of helpful information for players who are new to the server. Also, if you haven’t already, make sure to register your in-game account in the Account Management page using the same information you registered your forum name under. As for downloading the correct client and other things that you need to do in order to connect, I recommend giving this a read, as I found it very helpful myself when we made the switch to Cataclysm.

As for making your first character, there are a lot of helpful articles and guides for you to read up on in case you don’t fully understand the lore. The wiki also contains helpful tips for making a character and for when you’re writing your first profile, such as scale and height.

When you get your account created, make sure to /join Chat and /join Barrens in-game for if you have any questions not answered in the forums. Additionally, if you have skype and want to connect to the community there, we have an official skype group. For more information, read this thread. Feel free to send me a message if you need any assistance, and I’ll give if a reply as soon as I can! And if not me, any Overseer, GM, or Forum Helper.

You might be happy to hear that there are plenty of opportunities for you to have this kind of RP. There are a couple of guilds that are dedicated to Alliance RP and occasionally we have events where you can fight on the Alliance's side. I'm also glad to see that you want to sign up for the mentor program, since your mentor will be able to point you towards the RP that you desire and help get you accustomed to the server in general.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy your stay!
