[A-RP] Beginner Bar RP - The Curious Octopus

Want to try some casual RP in a relaxed environment? Are you new to roleplaying, and feel stressed about how to do it and what to do?

Come to the Curious Octopus! I’m Zak, I’ll be your bartender, serve you drinks, and listen to your woes.

Low bar roleplaying, with no expectations on creativity, fast typing or quick thinking.

The bar will be open Wednesdays 8pm – 10pm Realm time.

While you’re there, feel free to ask me about basic concepts of roleplaying, or bounce your character concept.

What? Casual, beginner-friendly RP bar

Where? The Curious Octopus, Boralus, in Mariner’s Row (there’s a portal to Boralus from the Mage Tower in Stormwind, feel free to whisper me in-game for directions - Zakariye)

When? Wednesdays 8pm – 10pm

Who? I’m Zak (Zakariye in-game), your bartender. Other members of Lore and Order might also be there to help out.

How? Come to the Curious Octopus, and we take it from there – no scripted events, you set the pace.

Why? The aim is to create a relaxed environment that caters to new/inexperienced/nervous players, who want to try roleplaying. Neurodiverse / shy roleplayers especially welcome.

Disclaimer – there are people on this realm who are (way) more experienced with guiding people into RP, and who do it (way) better than me. I do not claim to know all the ins and outs of WoW RP, but I’d like to do my part in helping new/inexperienced players feel welcome.

The doors are open for everyone! If you are an experienced RPer who want to attend, I kindly ask that you help out in the spirit of the event.

Hello and Happy New Year! Are you guys around on any other days? Besides Wednesday I mean…

Beginner RP bar slots are usually resrved for wednesdays. I understand this might not fit everyone’s schedule, but it’s the day that’s best for me, because the time available for RP is somewhat limited :S

If you ever catch me in the Octopus on another day, feel free to drop by :slight_smile: it happens very rarely though.

If you want some casual RP beginner-friendly RP another date/time, let me know (I am usually on Briseia or Zakariye in game), and we can hopefully set something up.

The coming wednesday, the bar will be manned by Illaelath. He’s an excellent bartender :slight_smile: please stop by the Curious Octopus to try his famous Kaldorei ginger wine.

Last week a bard turned up and entertained our patrons. Could you be the next big celebrity with humble origins, come along and give it a go.
Please note, the blender is a death trap, milkshakes are not a good idea.

Need to relax after a heavy day of adventuring? Come sit in front of the fire, grab yourself a tankard of ale or beer, a glass of wine or milkshake (please for the love of Elune, no), or cup of tea.

Doors are still open folks. Cheapest bar on Azeroth.

Next week Zak is out of town to wrangle new deals with our suppliers, but the bar is still open! Stop by!

Edit: Illaelath is also busy this week. You are welcome to RP in the Curious Octopus anyway, of course!
