Clear sky, clear air - Northrend awaits YOU!
Ain’t no mountain high enough! Join the mountaineers today!
The Ninth Northrend Mountain Division is recruiting able-bodied soldiers, disenfranchised workers or prisoners sent into forced labor, to secure and protect Horde interests, primarily in Northrend. First established during the War against the Lich King as part of the Horde Expedition. the mountaineers had become known as The Ashen Ghosts due to their white and black colors and their habit of burning the corpses of fallen soldiers for fuel. With its forces drained by subsequent wars, the division seeks to bolster its ranks once more under the new Horde leadership.
While we consider any characters with a background that fits the theme, we do have a soft spot for races such as Frostwolf Orcs, Highmountain Taurens, Forsaken, Taunka, or even some Pandarens of Kun-Lai. If you can brave the cold, then maybe mountaineering is your path in life.
And to help you face the freezing temperatures you will need suitable clothes and armor. We don’t have a uniform per say, just a cozy tabard over your appropriate winter transmog (sorry Demon Hunters, dashing around in your bare chest just won’t do it here).
The division is based at Conquest Hold where we train and from where we direct our operations. Outside standard military exercises, activities such as hiking, climbing, foraging and hunting are also a big part of a mountaineer’s training.
