[A-RP] Beards of the Aerie Peak - Dwarven Warband

Beards of the Aerie Peak

Gor Hor Nagga'roth! (For the Wildhammer!)

For many years, the Northern Mountains have been under threat, from endless conflict of it’s neighbours. Blood spills into the hills and it is time for the Dwarves of the Highlands to rally, Bronzebeard and Wildhammer alike. These kin can only trust one another to cleanse the North of Khaz Modan!

For tae' Alliance!

Strong winds, lads!

The Beards of the Aerie Peak have come to Azeroth, authorized by the Great High Thane Falstad himself, upon recognizing that with the conflict amongst the Highlands, the endless tension with the Dark Irons in the South of Khaz Modan, the Forsaken threats to the West and the unholy risen evils of the North - It was soon recognised that the Hinterlands itself, with limited defences, was vulnerable! Ghorikk Grudgemark arranged a defensive Warband of the lands, which is exactly what the Dwarven people got. The Dwarves seek to cleanse the lands of cur-scum and right the wrongings!

The Beards are a Dwarvish RP guild settled amongst the North of the Eastern Kingdoms, working with other guilds already in campaign matters! We are recruiting Kinsmen to defend the highlands. This Warband aims to keep an accurate, yet humble image of the Dwarven people, in which we thrive on events of adventure and clashing with Horde counterparts. This is primarily a tribal folk, to which a direct uniform is not required, however our kin dress appropriately to the culture, keeping to our great Dwarvish theme.

Ranks

Conscript

Freshly enlisted Dwarves, these kinsmen aspire a means to prove themselves and become confirmed in their rank.

Soldier

Brave Warriors of the Aerie Peak. The meatgrinder of a frontline of Dwarves in battle. They are responsible for shifting the tides of battle.

Oathsworn

Bound by blood to their clan and fealty pledged to the Aerie Peaks, these are the experienced Warriors, setting an example to the soldiers.

Herald

The voice of the Beards, sent on missions as a diplomatic envoy for messages and negotiations, suitable for the non-battle type of Dwarf.

Chosen Beard

The elite of all Oathsworn warriors to the Beards. They serve as the Authority in the absence of the High Council, Thanesman and Thane. The very front of the frontline!

High Council

The political party of the Beards. A small handful of Dwarves, holding the ability to vote and direct the future of the Beards and keep the Thane in check.

Thanesman

The second hand of the Thane, able to act as the leader in the Thane’s absence, the most reliable Dwarf to the Thane and able to shape the Warband with their influence.

Thane

The head of the table. His word is law and his will unbreaking. The Thane ferociously leads the Defense of the Wildhammer Lands and upholds the reputation of the Dwarven people. Nothing is more important to the Thane than the Peak itself.

After some careful consideration, we Beards are still seeking like-minded individuals who share our vision of the Highlands once again being dominated by the beards under the mountain!

I appreciate we may be hard to get in touch with in-game currently to our challenging numbers and sporadic activity. So I will now set that while Recruitment is still to be IC, that I welcome anyone sharing interest to pop a comment here with either your name/discord so we can add you & reach out to schedule a time to meet IC (no scripted RP however).

Since this announcement, we now have many Horde factions in contact, eager to run events of RP-PVP/other with us, which will be great once a show of hands prop up to aid the cause of us Dwarves.

For the Alliance!

I will always now just expect Beôdil to be screaming “AAAAAAAA” and attempting to punt Hamfist.

We still have the full intent of keeping this guild running. Unfortunately, a wave of IRL commitments have taken up my time in being able to run everything as according to plan.

Please let us know if you share an interest in the meantime, we would love to get some beards on deck for when the time comes!
