WELCOME TO WE'RE STILL HERE

We're in the mood for fresh meat.

---

Helloooo, neighbors! Welcome, everyone, to We're Still Here. Officially, the game doesn't open until December 1st, but we still wanted to give you guys a chance to get to know one another. Feel free to use this post to introduce yourself, share your contact info if you so desire, and mingle with your new neighbors before the real fun begins in a few days. We, as mods, would also like to use this space to address a few points about what to expect in December as well as how our next application round is going to pan out. Firstly, We're Still Here's first month is going to be a plot-heavy month. December is a crazy time for all of us, and we realize that not everyone will have the time to devote to roleplay, so we've decided to make the event a low stakes one and split it up into two halves with the first part beginning the day the game opens and running until the 15th, and the next half picking up right after that and running until the 25th. An announcement and plotting post will be going up in a few days. At the end of the month, we'll post a recap for the event that will also function as a public discussion where you can ask questions and provide the mod team with feedback. Secondly, since December will be a plot-heavy month with January being a relaxed month, this means that January will be our next application round. Not including potential drops, we will have seven slots available for new players. We will post a reminder announcement on the mod plurk as the date draws closer. Additionally, we will also be posting a new TDM in January for the new application round. For exact times on all of these dates, please refer to our calendar. And that's all! Break out your best gifs and get to mingling!

Hello folks! My name is Jack, and I play a dragon by the name of Wrathion from World of Warcraft.

To sum him up: Local Black Dragon Solves Reputation Problem By Murdering Family, Releasing War Criminal, Changing The Subject To Eldritch Beings We Should Fight Instead Of Being Angry At Him!

Wrathion is a recurring figure in Warcraft who has helpful voice lines like 'do you trust me, champion?'

The answer is that you probably shouldn't! He can get terrible tunnel vision, be horribly self-absorbed, doesn't always understand the nuance of how people react to him and throws himself into spicy danger whimsically. He's made one big enough mistake to have learned the hard lesson of 'I'm not always right' but he's still fairly arrogant and liable to assume he's is. Overall, he tends to want to do things for the Greater Good but he's bad at explaining and working with others.

He has great hair! It's full of secrets. Unfortunately here he cannot shapeshift into his natural black dragon shape, but even if he could he probably wouldn't offer you a lift. You need Exalted Reputation for that privilege!



He likes sharp things! Since he's forced to be a regular person here, his eyes won't have the fancy red glow anymore. Do note there is some content-warning stuff in his background -- it isn't likely to come up in truth but drop me a line if you need me to make sure to avoid it for you!

Okuyasu is getting some bad vibes from this dude!!

But regardless, Wrathion sounds like he'll be fun in a survival event.

[blackscales]

Listen, listen, he probably is hiding something from you but it's probably safe and he definitely has everything under control! Maybe! The point is don't worry about it dragons are exceptionally smart, let him doing the worrying everything will be fine.

We're in a game again, after all this time, and I'm so excited for it! I can't wait for Daylight and Wrathion to meet in the game because hey does murdering family feel good or Wrathion seems so cool!

[blackscales]

It didn't feel... great... but on the other hand, they were a threat to the whole world so it was fairly deserved. He'd do it again! However maybe it's a little lonely too.

[sunborne]

; n ;

One day murder will be the solution that feels good on the inside. One day.

[blackscales]

It does feel quite good when it's revenge! The family part is what makes it depressing, really, but regular murder of large world-destroying evil entities is quite satisfying!

However, on Warcraft terms that requires between 10 and 30 people so it's more an organised group murder activity...

[sunborne]

Clearly, this means Wrathion needs to be our organizer for our group murder activity when the gang rallies together later on.

Share your wisdom, Wrath...!

[blackscales]

You'll need about 2 tanks, 5 healers, some decent damage -- and make sure you all come prepared with supplies.

im sure the glowing red eyes are not indicative of his character whatsoever. i am sad they're disappearing for awhile

he sounds like a card and i am excited to see what hijinks he'll be up to in santa rosita!

[blackscales]

Honestly.

There's a lot of questions lore-wise about why his eyes glow red, but it's entirely possible the answer is 'Blizzard forgot they took the glow away from the other dragons symbolically' or alternatively 'they thought it looked cool and decided to ignore the lore this time'.

Not to worry, though, Wrathion is a completely safe black dragon and he only caused a war the one time and had a void related accident that one other time otherwise everything is completely under control.

[spaghettimonster]

Self-absorbed, confident, wants the Greater Good, and great hair? What not to admire and emulate here. Incredible.

(Does Wrathion have any great hair tips to go with Papyrus, who is simultaneously an eager student and enthusiastic teacher)

[blackscales]

Very difficult to teach, he just wakes up this way you see. It's a state of mind.

[spaghettimonster]

A state of mind... maybe he can absorb some of that perspective in chatting and listening, then.

[blackscales]

Wonderful idea! Wrathion LOVES when people listen to him, at length. The sound of his own voice is his favourite sound!
