HELP WANTED!

Hiring hands to escort our caravan across Lordaeron!

Our perilous journey will take us through dangerous areas such as the Eastweald! For a successful journey we require:

  • Guards!
  • Doctors
  • Healers
  • Tailors
  • Carpenters
  • Hunters
  • Pathfinders

A fair compensation of 20 silver coins a week is guaranteed, depending on experience and contributions made!

We are setting out from the gates of Thoradin’s Wall within one month from the time of this writing!

If you are interested in well-compensated work worthy of your talent and skill, seek out a servant of House Duskrose in timely fashion!

OOC:

We’re a continuously moving caravan that aims to stay approximately 3-4 days in each zone before changing scenery to the next segment of the journey! The aim of each stop is to tackle the struggles of a long trip, and sometimes even help strangers along the way!

As a rule, our caravan’s RP maintains an open door policy.

Should these runs become popular enough, it will pave the way to more travel RP projects such as this one, and with any luck turn into a mobile hub!
None of this, however, can happen without your support! So what are you waiting for!?

If you’re interested in joining or even just interacting with our caravan along the way, or simply have questions, feel invited to poke your nose into our discord if you’d like to know more!

May the wind be at your back! :wave:

We will be in the Swamp of Sorrows until Monday!

Murloc… Pirates!?

On behalf of the esteemed Baron Silvernsap,

A group of notorious murloc pirates - the Skullfin Crew - have settled into Camp Reed! This puts them in a perfect position to intercept the Baron’s trade on the south route!

For the sake of business and continued beach parties, we need them GONE!

REWARD: 10 Gold

For those interested: Starts in Bogpaddle today (Sunday) at 20:30!

On Monday: We move across Redridge Pass from around 20:30, barring any delays!

We are currently in:

Chiselgrip

As we near our stop inside Blackrock Mountain two or so days from now, we’re open to any interactions with its denizens! In fact, we’d be thrilled to pick up any locals. Dark Iron Dwarf or two maybe? C:

On Thursday we move into Blackrock Mountain, starting from Chiselgrip at around 20:30, barring any delays!

It’s been a wild week, I almost forgot to update! :cold_sweat:

We’ve been to Blackrock Mountain, acquired the softest pillows for camping, and then braved an ash storm with gargantuan elementals! Now we’re in the Badlands, riiight

Somewhere between New Kargath and the Scar of the Worldbreaker

Sheltered underneath copious amounts of cloth spread over the ribs of a long-deceased giant reptile, we are currently tending to three lightning-struck horses, three more fortunate horses, and a set of damaged wagons! All underneath continuous sandstorms and some extremely dry heat to go with it!

This orc hates it already.

After an unexpected negotiation of the exotic kind, the caravan finds itself under the custody of two earth elementals who are all too willing to build them a bridge to Loch Modan! Yay!

Furthermore,

The caravan is currently resting in Fuselight!

We will likely cross into Loch Modan this Friday! We’re travelling a little fast, yes, but there are good reasons for that!

Any future journeys will be considerably slower and allow for more room for planning events!

Fun fact. So far the caravan has had three combat encounters in total! Four if you count a single confused jaguar.

My IRL month is a bit wild so I haven’t gotten around to posting everywhere but you may have noticed in certain discords that

The Caravan is currently campe in the Wetlands, just south of Greenwarden’s Grove

We are likely to continue our trek north tomorrow at 20:30! Beware the slimes.

7

How time passes by!

We’ve basically zoomed through Arathi Highlands and are now camped by Thoradin’s Wall, preparing to bonk a grell on steroids! With witherbark mindslaves implied :eyes:

Come protect us, senpai

We have arrived at our destination two weeks ago, I just forgot to post about it!

But fret not, after a short break, and then another short break, there will be a new initiative!

Raki is just kind of tied up with RP until November, and so am I.

Update

The caravan is bound for Pandaria on the 19th! That is one week from now, Sunday!

11

The caravan is shipping out on Sunday at approximately 20:30!

Our first day will be spent on a trade ship until Monday

That is when we begin our adventure in the Krasarang Wilds!

Reminder that once we’re out and about, anyone and everyone is free to join along!

12

Soooo, there’s at least one person I haven’t gotten back to because on Monday my PC decided to die. Fret not! It didn’t stop the caravan as we are amazing like that. :>

We’re currently stuck in the Krasarang Wilds because some people can’t help themselves when it comes to provoking the wildlife!

We may or may not be in Halfhill by the weekend.

We’ve just moved into the Jade Forest with a delivery just in from the Stormstout Brewery - for the Drunken Hozen!

15

We’re in the midst of departing Pandaria! It’s been a cozy little journey that has also taught us a few fascinating lessons!

I will be sure to make an update on when we are planning the next caravan for, but more likely than not it’s back to the Eastern Kingdoms!

16

Currently preoccupied with Gilneas selling flowers in Silverpine Forest! Once that’s done I’ll start working out the next caravan! The unfortunate news, though, is that we will probably use either end of the Eastern Kingdoms. I don’t think Kalimdor offers near enough RP opportunities at this time.

We’re currently voting on the caravan’s next destination.

If you’d like to vote too or come help organize the next caravan trip in some capacity, feel invited!

18

The votes are in! With the precise date yet to be announced, our hub area will be East Lordaeron! We’re setting out in the second half of March, so if you have a preference for a more precise date, this would be a good time to join the discord and place a vote!

19

Update - I wanted to wait for the Kosh’harg announcement before deciding!

The caravan will be setting out in the last week of March! When exactly? I’ve decided to put it to vote in our caravan discord! If you’d like to have a say in this, come on in and cast your ballot! :kiss:

Hello, everyone!

With the final vote cast, the caravan sets out from Thoradin’s Wall toward Eastweald starting 25. March!

But getting there won’t be easy! Lately, a small remnant of the Scarlet Crusade had poured into Hillsbrad Foothills and Alterac Mountains whilst a splinter faction of the Syndicate took control of Durnholde Keep, preparing to oust the Alliance from Southshore and plotting the assassination of officials across Tarren Mill, Strahnbrad and Alterac City in a desperate attempt to weaken the Horde’s grip on the two regions. Rumor has it some orcs number among their ranks of late…

Amidst the chaos of the surrounding regions, the Hinterlands were a beacon of serenity where Jintha’Alor and Aerie Peak maintained a respectful distance from each other. Though rumors have surfaced of a shady group of pale humans entering Vilebranch territory…

Lastly, most of the Plaguelands remained in the vice grip of the Cult of the Damned, with two rival splinter factions vying for total dominance of the region.

These are reasons, unbeknownst among many others, that the caravan will need protection as they travel to Tyr’s Hand, and perhaps even Stratholme and the Gates to Quel’thalas, turning a profit as they stop to both trade their wares and acquire new ones, or even solve some of the local problems in exchange for a juicy reward!

Here is also a rough estimation of the caravan’s schedule (this is subject to change based on ingame events and decisions, or out-of-RP feedback)
