[Alteraci RP] Eagles Talon

[Kanista-argent-dawn (Kanista)]

With the war renewed between The Alliance and Horde the factions have drawn their eyes northward into the old human kingdoms. Some clearly side with The Alliance, The Gilneans under King Greymane, The Stromic under Danath Trollbane, The Kul Tirans under Jaina Proudmoore and even rumours of the line of Menethil have began to spread. The Horde on the other hand have claimed men and women from almost every kingdom to their deathless banner and with the loss of Lordaeron have doubled down on their remaining strongholds and even turning to ones long abandoned. High in the mountains that cut through the kingdoms of old sit the ruins of Alterac, it’s legacy only remembered for betrayal and brigands. The Alteraci not sided with The Syndicate have scattered to the various corners of Azeroth though many have found home in The Grand Alliance of Stormwind living through insult and mistrust by many. Though as Alliance banners push deeper and deeper into Horde held territory the question of what will become of these mountains comes back around again.

IC information of The Talon:

The Eagle’s Talon is a new formed company of Alteraci loyal to The Alliance that seek not just to reclaim their home but also to find others of their kin and to see their people redeemed of the past actions of their treacherous king. For this they still wear the orange banner of their kingdom though have recoloured the eagle sigil of their home to a snow white colour to show their loyalty for their home but also their wish for separation from their king’s actions. Their white eagle banner can be seen often fluttering about many fronts across The Alliance’s war.

Given the ruined state of their home and also the now heavy presence of Horde there, The Talon have adapted heavily to survival and skirmishing tactics against their enemies and are comprised largely of skilled trackers, hunters, tamers, climbers and marksmen.

Guild Structure:
Ranger Captain (GM)
The Captain is the leader of The Talon and gives the company direction on where it should go and what it should be doing, they are responsible for the overall running of the company.
Second (Officer)
The Company’s Second is second only to The Captain themselves, they are most often delegated tasks though are trusted to take matters to their own hands when The Captain isn’t around.
Supply Officer (Officer)
The Supply Officer is not a combat role, they mostly remain in areas of trade to ensure that The Company is supplied with what they need and direct messages to those that need them across large distances.
Ranger (Member)
Rangers are those that have proven themselves both loyal and capable to the cause, they are the ones that will mainly represent The Talon in areas of conflict and are tasked with taking those aspiring to join The Talon under their wing for mentoring.
Apprentice (Recruit)
Each that join The Eagle’s Talon start as an Apprentice, here they are judged on their ability and will be assigned to a ranger to learn from.
Mercenary (Hired Hands)
Due to the small number of Alteraci The Talon will sometimes hire on aid for specific periods or conflicts, they do not have to be Alteraci themselves but they are only chosen by The Captain themselves to ensure they can be trusted.
OOC (OOC)
…They’re OOC?

OOC Infomation
The Talon is an Alteraci themed guild, we don’t claim ownership of Alterac OOCly though our characters do feel responsible for the land and will do what they see as needed to keep their home free from undead, demons or any that threaten it or what is left of their people. Hillsbrad and specifically Alterac is where you’ll mainly find The Talon though due to the goal of seeking to improve the reputation of their people they deploy to areas across the world to fight in The Alliance’s wars. For this we not only conduct RP on our own but often partner with other guilds for larger events both for regular RP and for RP-PvP.

Rules:
The guild has tried to keep a small rules list however they are still expected to be followed.

1. Metagaming, Power emoting and griefing RP is a big no, especially if it effects other guilds.
2. Griefing RP-PvP or purposefully breaking the set rules such as banned abilities will be dealt with harshly.
3. ERP happens on the server and many see it differently, if you’re caught out with proof then you’re out. Keep it to yourselves.
4. Don’t bring needless drama on your guild mates, got a problem with somebody? Take it up with them in private and don’t expect us to ignore people because of your personal vendettas.

Recruitment
So, you’re interested in joining? Feel free to come find us in-game for some rp and if your character fits then we’ll be glad to have you with us!

Good to see a thread for this awesome guild!
Kanista herself is really awesome, so is her gulld which i interacted with several times, and really enjoyed it!

Good to have you around

[Lochton-argent-dawn (Lochton)]

I would like to say, rather harsh lives to live up there but glad to see someone calling it home once more.

If you are in need of a particular set of skills such as mine, I’ll gladly offer the service in the name of the Alliance.

Great guild to RP and RP-PvP with, although a small band it’s a good one. Kanista puts a lot of soul and a refreshing spin on the Alteraci people.

Looking forward to the future of this guild and the RP to come in the future with them. 10/10 would have the same surname as the GM again.

[Nolric-argent-dawn]

Has been great fun to roleplay with the Eagle’s of Alterac so far. Really liking the style you uphold!

[Mordenhof-argent-dawn]

After having interracted with the Eagles Talon for some time now, I would heartily recommend this guild to anyone looking to find roleplay around mountain-dwelling rangers, hardy folk, and the heritage of Alterac. They create a really good atmosphere with their stories, and have been dynamic partners in the recent rp-pvp : campaign!

Good luck, Kanista, and I hope the guild flourishes!

[Edwarion-argent-dawn (Edwarion)]

I’ve known Kanista for a long time now, both she and the Talons are great, so I can only recommend people check them out.

[Obilot-argent-dawn (Obilot)]

Kanista has put quite a bit of effort in this. I met her earlier and her story was interesting, though it did not really appeal to my Alteraci character, unfortunately!

Good luck!

[Kanista-argent-dawn (Kanista)]

Now finally back in their home after their time at the war games in the dwarvern mountains, The Talon faces more trouble than before as news reaches the peaks of scheming politicals, encroaching dead and new faces of an orc band entering the snows.

[Dudflex-argent-dawn (Dudflex)]

Damn, they made a guild based on the Surv hunter’s relic Weapon.

[Thuzar-argent-dawn (Thuzar)]

what is your view on the syndicate?, since I believe they are alterac “rebels” of some description.

[Kanista-argent-dawn (Kanista)]

Yeah… The guild’s name is based on the sigil of Alterac which is an eagle, rather than a Falcon as I used to believe so it’s connection to the hunter’s order hall is just coincidence.

As for our view on the Syndicate, Kanista hates what they have done and continue to do them so wont have the company helping their work, though considering they are a large portion of the remaining Alteraci people she is hoping to offer them a different path under The Alliance.

[Kump-argent-dawn]

A bump for this brilliant guild and bunch, whom we’ll face, in the name of Durotan.

[Kanista-argent-dawn (Kanista)]

After a few weeks of mostly constant travel and fighting,The Talon find perch back northward closer to home in the mountains at Aerie Peak. They had faced down tireless Undead, unyielding Trolls, ferocious Orcs and towering Tauren in the battles of Wetlands, Loch Modan and they have now fought countless trolls in the tiered city of Jintha’alore in an effort to save a fellow ranger and have suffered grievous wounds for their work. Now they have a few days to rest and attend to their own doings not yet knowing of a threat closer to home looming over the horizon.

[Álfya-argent-dawn]

Alfya pressed her hands together and ran her gaze over the numerous self-made reports upon the movements of the humans in Alterac and the surrounding areas. Troubling interactions and irksome meddling was consistent with each; while no friend to the trolls in Jintha’alor it could be no mistake that their aggression was against trolls. A new rhetoric was being taken and those in the orange colours were the weakest link and it was time for a group of specific individuals to begin breaking it apart.
