Alectai:
My response to this is best described as a solid maybe.
Feel free to think it through.
Alectai:
Your statement about wanting to pave over the plot holes of Warcraft is good,
I'm glad you think so! Most of the changes are a bit subtle, others are not so much. For example, certain people might not be as treacherous as they are in the games. Certain mysteries will stay the same, others will have a very different outcome to them. Keeps people from meta-gaming.
For example, Dathrohan might not be impersonated by a Dreadlord, so don't go rummaging through his papers just because you know out of game that in Canon Warcraft, he got killed off and flesh-puppeteered by a demon.
Alectai:
I'm not sure about the system we'll use though.
Are you refering to Pathfinder or the World of Warcraft RPG in that case? Either can be changed if need be.
dlantoub:
Are you thinking single, multi or neutral affiliation.
Depends on what region we go for.
dlantoub:
The earlier you set it, less classes will be available if we are following lore.
SETTING
Is everyone okay with a post-Mount Hyjal storyline set in Lordaeron?
In this scenario, the night elves have recently arrived on the shores of Lordaeron. Tyrande and Maiev are either about to or already have acquaintanced themselves with Prince Kael'thas, in their hunt for Illidan. Illidan's either already been wrested from or will have the Eye of Sargeras from him. Illidan may have already opened a portal to and from Outland or he may still be on Azeroth.
Meanwhile, the Knights of the Silver Hand are fighting back the Scourge. The Ashbringer is either still alive or freshly slain. Garithos still lives. Either the Forsaken are only just releasing themselves from the Scourge or are already in a full-blown rebellion.
Races that would be available:
- Human/Dwarf/Gnome
- Night Elf/Furbolg/Moonkin/Dryad (mandatory background; OR Tyrande's Faithful OR Malfurion's Faithful OR Maiev's Faithful OR Illidan's Faithful)
- High Elf (blood elf in name only yet)
- Orc/Ogre/Forest Troll
- Goblin
- Variety of Forsaken (affects the starting point of the campaign; the Eye of Sargeras has been activated)
- Draenei/Draenor Resident (affects the starting point of the campaign; Illidan is in Outland)
- Naga (affects the starting point of the campaign; the Eye of Sargeras has been destroyed)
- Kobold/Gnoll/Other
If you are unsatisfied with these options, tell me which option you would like to have. If your option is not available in this time period, we can look for a different time period.
