(IC) What name or title do you go by?
- My name is Tahlren Moonswift.
(IC) What is your gender and race?
- I am a male Tauren.
(IC) What is your class in life? Why did you choose to follow this class?
- I see power in nature and its ways, and it has brought me to the teachings of the Druids. I respect the balance in nature and ultimately seek to maintain it.
(IC) How would you describe yourself?
-I am not a talkative one, but I will speak when it is needed of me. I would consider myself stern and loyal to my beliefs.
(IC) How many "Honorable" Kills do the Battlemasters currently have recorded for you?
-Last I have checked, my kill count has exceeded 48,000. I do not intend on stopping soon.
(IC) What drives you in life? How would the Grim benefit from having you among its ranks?
-Balance, in many aspects. Recently the balance has been threatened by many sources - all of which The Grim seem to be targeting. I, too, wish to eliminate these threats by any means necessary - and my dedication to doing so will certainly benefit The Grim's cause.
(IC) What did you do prior to The Grim?
- I was formerly a member of Blood Moon Rising nearly three years ago. I had taken a leave to hone my talents and to solidify my beliefs. I wish to end my absence by serving The Grim and the Mandate they follow.
(IC) What are your thoughts on the pact between the Alliance and the Warchief Thrall?
- It is a mistake, to say the least. Peace will not gained through a supposed 'pact.' Peace must be gained by eliminating the threat - the Mandate states it best.
(OOC) The Grim is a role-playing guild that requires full immersion (heavy RP) of their members. What does that mean to you?
- It means to fully and strictly play my character as I feel he would react. In RP situations, which should be nearly every situation, the character is speaking, not me.
(OOC) The Grim are considered a Lawful Evil guild, ruled by structure and a defined chain of command with the intent to see the complete annihilation of their enemies. How does your character's personality and storyline follow the Grim Mandate? Is there any conflict between how you want to play your character and the theme of the Grim? If so, what do you expect out of joining us?
- Tahlren isn't influenced by his emotions - he has a clear definition of what the balance is and how to maintain it. He lives for the balance, and he truly believes that the best way to sustain it is to join The Grim and fight for them. I don't anticipate conflict between how he acts and the Grim's theme.
(OOC) What sort of role-playing experience do you have, online or off-line? Do you consider yourself a beginner or Gary Gygax?
-Well, as a former member of the Grim, I would say that the Grim was my first RP experience. I developed RP skills, I would think, through my years in the Grim, and, even with my absence, I feel I've still developed. At this time, I would consider myself fairly experienced with RP.
(OOC) Do you have any previous WoW experience? (PvP, Raiding, Battlegrounds, Different Servers, Different Guilds, Different Factions, etc.)
- I've been on a few servers since I've left - my latest has been Alterac Mountains, but Wyrmrest Accord before that. As for PvP, I have been at 2150 rating on my shaman (which I may transfer soon as I get the money) and around 2000 with my druid. I'm currently at a 1815 Rated BG rating and I feel fairly confident as a PvP of all specs on my druid.
(OOC) Is this character a server-transfer or has it been renamed recently?
-Soon-to-be Server Transfer. It used to be Moonswift, but the name is currently taken.
(OOC) Is this an alt of a current full Grim member? If so, what full member?
-Nope.
(OOC) What are you, the player, looking for in the Grim? What are your expectations of the guild?
- Honestly, a great experience. I had a great experience five years ago, and I don't think that'll change. I've matured quite a bit, I would think, and I think I'll fit in with the guild better than I did in the past.
(OOC) When joining the Grim, each new applicant will be matched up with someone to help them get into the swing of being Grim. In order to coordinate this, we will need to have a fair approximation of your play schedule. Please give a general outline below, OR if you wish to keep it private, send a PM to Thalevia.
-Well, I'm currently in college, so I will generally play a few hours during the day, but mostly at night, probably sometime after 6:30 or earlier. On thursdays, I don't get out of class until 9:30, but I have no class on Friday, so I'll be on anytime after that.
(OOC) Please provide an armory link to your character for verification.

(EDIT: I am currently on the server!)
(IC/OOC) Do you have anything further to add?
-PEACE THROUGH ANNIHILATION!!
(EDIT: I am currently on the server! And the link is updated.)
