The old veteran inhaled a long puff of smoke coming from the cigar, while pinning the last corner of the parchment on the wall.
Crane smiled to himself, satisfied by the brief handwork, lingering his gaze on the manifest’s content:
"Proud people of the Alliance,
and fellow citizens of Gilneas.
It is with honor, that your Kingdom’s Royal Army asks -you- to enlist once again into it’s ranks.
While the Fourth War might be over, an ongoing crysis is hitting the borders of our homeland and of the nearby regions.
The truce between factions and the ceasefire left many unanswered questions behind, aswell as a tremendous amount of scars all across the world.
With only a few representative regiments of the Grand Alliance up there, the constant threat of the -rabid dogs- still loyal to the vile Banshee Queen is halting the negotiations with the the opposite faction, making them extremely more difficult than what they already were, and the risk of a diplomatic incident to re-ignite the cinders of the global conflict is indeed -high-.
These Forsaken hide behind false promises and deceptive alignations, oftenly disguised as ‘servants of the Horde’, but in reality portraying their cursed, evil plans.
The presence of several Scourge swarms, remnants of the invasion of almost two years ago by now, is not helping either.
Now more than ever, our homeland is in needing of -your help-.
At the head of the freshly-started ‘Operation Dying Light’, the 5th Royal Brigade established a safe foothold within the ruins of Silverpine, not far from the Greymane Wall, and is actively working to keep the situation in check, aswell to -mine- the rotters’ schemes and terroristic actions.
Enlist today, if you wish to take arms once and again and put an end to this madness once, and for all.
In the name of King Greymane,
For Liam. For our people.
For Gilneas!"
Hello Argent Dawn,
The ‘Wolfsbane Brigade’ is a relatively new gilnean guild, recently formed.
We are at the constant seek of fellow gilneans (Afflicted or not), to join our ranks and embrace arms to once again fight in the name of our lost Kingdom.
While the concept is basically similar to those of many other ‘military guilds’ across the server, we are putting high effort and hardly working to grant to our members our own, personal interpretation of such concept.
An almost isolated brigade, deployed into an hostile territory, blasted by decades of conflict and the flithy Plague of Undeath. Completely ‘alone’ out in the cursed wilds between Gilneas and Lordaeron, with no allies, no supplies, and without a proper shelter, surrounded by vicious, smart and deadly foes, struggling even for the smallest inch of ground.
We do our best, and we do it for Gilneas. No matter what.
Joining us, you will find a mature, friendly and safe enviroment. We do not need drama, we do not want drama, and we keep always an eye open to keep it -far- from the group. Our Officers’ team is at costant work to offer our members the highest quality of rp.
Worth to mention, the guild puts highly emphasis on a small system that is currently under development, named ‘Good Night, Good Luck’ (yes, the references to -that- Dying Light you might find here and there across the post are more than legit).
As any other guilds, our events are hosted in the evenings, usually from 20.30 ST on.
After a bit of reflection, and due to the dire enviroment we chosen as our rp’s location, we heavily rely on the ‘day and night’ cycle, constantly remarking (and to quote the earlier statement, developing juicy, small rp ‘tidbits’ related to it) the danger of being out at nightime, having our roaster dealing with deadly, hardcore-combat foes.
If the concept at the whole thickles your curiosity, or if you wish to experience the life of the member of a stern gilean brigade, well, you know what to do.
See you in Azeroth, and-…
Good Night. Good Luck.
F.A.Q
‘Sounds cool, but, are there any unforms?’
The answer to this question is ‘yes and no’. While the guild not having an official uniform, we rely on our members’ taste to respect the guild aesthetics, and customize their own, personal attire. The only -must- is represented by the gilnean tabard, easily purchasable for a few coins by the dedicated in-game quartermaster.
‘Wouldn’t the guild be isolated, so far away from the Stormwind City hub?’
Of course, no. We are actively engaged on the server’s life, and becoming part of the Alliance community at whole. Also, we have our own allied guilds, which dediced to take part in ‘Operation Dying Light’ chillin’ with us. We host shared events, and cooperation is always welcomed.
‘I am interested, but I have also an undefined (sighs) amount of alts into an undefined number of guilds. Can I put -another- alt in this one?’
Yes, you can. However, the only true requirement we ask other than keep an adult and polite behaviour, is to being active. If you join us, you want to rp with us. We do not want characters that enlist and never log back. After a week of unjustified absence, one of the officers will gently poke you. After two weeks , your toon will be removed from the guild.
‘What are your statements towards romances and ERP?’
Romances between characters are -always- welcome, at the cost of not focusing only on them, and avoid cringefests. ERP, instead, is -forbidden- among us. Sexuality between partners can be easily dealt with one emote, without dwelling into odd, questionable details.
‘The guild seems to be gilnean-themed. Does that mean that you accept only gilnean/worgen toons?’
Gilneans are our priority, and what makes our enviroment lovely ‘niche’. However, every human apply (Lordaeronian,Stromic,Stormwindian, or whatever else) is gladly welcomed. You can join, as far as you pledge your loyalty to our King and our cause.
‘How can I join?’
We do prefere an IC approach. For this reason, we have a recruiter roaming around Stormwind City, from time to time, named ‘Cpl. Kyle Crane’. Feel free to poke him, or to OOCly contact me, Lyallthor and Dreviil to arrange your IC entrance to the Brigade.
‘Isn’t fighting the Forsaken against the lore? Aren’t we all friends and gucci, by the end of BfA?’
The posts specifies how we deal with several threats, but mainly, the Forsaken still -loyal- to the Banshee Queen. Even if our lovely (cringe) Sylvanas had been ‘redeemed’ and all her war-crimes apparently forgiven because ‘the power of love’, the crimes portrayed by her followers are -not- forgotten. We work to avoid diplomatic incidents between the factions, we do not -openly- attack the Horde.
‘Do we have an AA?’
Of course we have! Every detail about other platforms and websites can easily be found in the guild’s dedicated discord server.
