The Ebonsworn - Old Thread

Death is merely the beginning upon a new path, that the Highlord taught us after the will of the Lich King were shattered and we vow to destroy the very being who shackled us to chains beneath his maddening will.

After the Lich King was defeated, because that is all he were… Defeated. He still lives on by his twisted crown that now rests upon another and his legacy that he bestowed upon us, his Knights of the Ebon Blade no matter how much we deny it.

When the Burning Legion threatened our world with chaos and destruction we, Knights of the Ebon Blade took on us the duty as Protector of Azeroth and by our twisted yet powerful magic used upon the battlefield against the endless masses of demons we stood victorious and saw the demonic invasion to an end by the combined might of Azeroth’s forces.

Now we stand at the brink of destruction once more by the never ending conflict between the Horde and the Alliance with their warfare turned to whole different level by the usage of Azerite that spreading across all of Azeroth.

We, the Knights of the Ebon Blade must once more step in to secure this world and see the threats of the world to a end as we are the deadliest of tools to vanquish these foes at hand.

Heed the Call of the Ebon Blade once more Death Knights, the situation is dire and we must act once more!

  • Rules:
    We have standard rules when it comes to the guild but several important ones would be following.

    • Activity:
      We do not demand you to be extremely active due to we are a guild who respect people have lives outside the game and we are adjusting ourselves after that but we expect communication between all members to inform us how your activity will be and if you’ve to be offline over a longer period we accept being informed.

    • Uniform: We do not use any uniforms we only require people while on guild activities to wear the Ebon Blade Tabard to represent the order. Initiates also have a month period of time when they must wear basic set and weapon as part of their story being risen to learn but once promoted to Knight they will be allowed their own armor and weapon.

    • Metagaming: We do not tolerate Metagaming within the guild. Your character may have a bit knowledge in history and alike because they read a lot but we do not want people who knows everything within Azeroth nor hear how you take Out of Character information into In Character from other sources. It will give you a warning and if continued, kicked.

    • Godemoting: We do not tolerate Godemoting due to our most important task in World of Warcraft is the make it enjoyable for all parties and Godemoting ruins a lot of joy. We accept some people may be new to the game and we will help you learn how to emote properly but if you’re warned and continue to Godemote you will be kicked from the guild.

    • Guild Manners: You have been accepted into our guild and we expected you to respect that what you do now will affect our name tag. Always treat your fellow Guild Members with respect and other players on the server while being under our roof. If you’re caught breaking our rules and ruining our guild reputation you may be warned but can also receive a kick right away if proof is given and depending on the case


Just want to add that the thread will be updated with more details the coming days!

So was Naz Kahet retconned for you to reinstate (again) your character in Ebon Blade or what’s happening? Cause I honestly lost count.

I started up The Naz kahet back in Cataclysm to serve as Alliance Death Knight order within the Alliance but the overall interest in the Alliance side of Death Knight RP as Faction Loyalists wasn’t enough.

Whenever approached by people curious about the guild they always declined when we clarified that we were not Ebon Blade guild.

The concept worked well during Cataclysm and early WoD when the Ebon Blade had no further progression but ever since Legion no one really want to RP actively as a non-Ebon Blade Death Knight so the guild sat down together with few others who wanted to RP actively as Ebon Blade members and we decided to change the road before we settled down too deep.

I personally would’ve loved to carry on the Alliance loyalists but sadly we adjust to the new situation and the Ebon Blade offers great opportunities as well.

As for the story it isn’t retconned, Angelus were active in the faction war but felt like the Alliance focused on wrong areas to deal with Sylvanas and decided after the Battle for Dazar’Alor to step away from the faction war and focus from the Ebon Blade perspective.

Also Angelus did rejoin the Ebon Blade during Legion to focus on the threat at hand so there have never been any retcon going on only situations where he took actions that was necessary at the current situation.

Do feel free to swing by, we could always need new fresh corpses for labour.

Can you please send us a list with names of all the Scarlets stopping by so I can send them back personalized arrows? :stuck_out_tongue:

The only things that’ll swing will be your decayed corpse upon the trees of Havenshire
