Grim Views

(IC) What name or title do you go by?
      -Shikigoma

(IC) What is your gender and race?
      -I am a Male Blood Elf.

(IC) What is your class in life?  Why did you choose to follow this class?
      - I am a hunter because I believe that with the strong bond with my pet and my archering skills I will have a better success rate when aiding my allies and destroying my enemies.

(IC) How would you describe yourself?
      - I am an outgoing, tactical member of the Horde who wants nothing more than to destroy the Alliance.  I want to grow powerful and with that powerful I want to merge my powers with others to show everyone what the Horde is truly made of.  I enjoy structure and I show respect to anyone above me.  I would proudly die for what I believe in.

(IC) What drives you in life?  Why do you want to be Grim?
      -The thing that drives me in life is to gain more power to protect those closest to me.  The reason I want to join the Grim is because recently I was involved in a three pronged defense against alliance raids.  As unfortunate as it was, I was the first to see a huge group of alliance heading towards Silvermoon City through the ghostlands.  I flew ahead and spread the alert but no one would answer my pleas to help protect the king.  Minutes before the alliance arrived a girl walked up next to me ready to fight....a member of the Grim.  I believe that they are strong and fear nothing and I want to join such a guild, willing to do anything.

(IC) What did you do prior to The Grim?
      -I wandered exploring and questing, making strong bonds with friends and searching for a higher calling.  It occured to me after the Raids, that this was my calling and I would do anything to join this guild.

(IC) What are your thoughts on the pact between the Alliance and the Warchief Thrall?
      -I believe that with any pact between two groups, there are reasons but I do not approve of any treaty with the alliance.  However, if my elders believe that this pact is what is right then I will support them.

(OOC) The Grim is a role-playing guild that requires full immersion (heavy RP) of their members.  What does that mean to you?
      -It simply means that I will feel at home.  Rp is a preferred style in my book, so I will fit right in.

(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 you joining?
    -My character's personality is perfectly suit for such a guild.  There is nothing he would want more than to destroy the alliance and structured Guilds are extremely efficent for both an offensive and a defensive responce to the alliance.

(OOC) What sort of role-playing experience do you have, online or off-line?  Do you consider yourself a beginner or Gary Gygax?
      -The extent of my roleplaying is limited only to a vast amount of group related roleplaying on myspace, and to a naruto roleplaying website.

(OOC) Do you have any previous WoW experience?  (PvP, Raiding, Battlegrounds, Different Servers, Different Guilds, Different Factions, etc.)
      -I have another character on the relm "Durotan" which I got to level 20 but decided to play on a different relm which is where I am now with my level 35 hunter.  I have done PvP in various contested zones and have been through 2 different raids, but on the defensive side.

(OOC)  What are you, the player, looking for in the Grim? What are your expectations of the guild?
      -I am looking for a guild that will be supporting, structured and shares the same common goals as myself. 

(IC/OOC) Do you have anything further to add?
    -After meeting a few of the members from the guild in the midst of combat, I can tell that they are something that I aspire to be.  I will do anything to join this guild at any cost.

I believe you require more training.  Come speak with us once you have learned how to use a Tranquilizing Shot and we will meet with you.  In the meantime, continue your work for the Horde.  You are doing well to seek the deaths of the Alliance already.  If you have further questions, feel free to keep in contact.

I see.  Well I respect your decision then.  As far as a tranquilizing shot goes, what level would you estimate I will have to become to achieve that sort of move?

(IC) What name or title do you go by?
      -Shikigoma
(IC) What is your gender and race?
      -I am a Male Bloodelf of the Sin'dori.
(IC) What is your class in life?  Why did you choose to follow this class?
      -As some of you may know, I am a hunter.  I believe that my pet gives me a much more tactical advantage of the area around me, as well as giving me a companion and an extra hand with anything I may come across if need be.
(IC) How would you describe yourself?
      -Ambitious would be one word to describe myself but to follow it up, I believe in a structured system derived from morals and hardwork.  During the midst of panic I am one to retaliate but never act against orders.  As far as most things go, I am commited to my goals when times get tough and at ALL times I thirst for the blood of the Alliance.
(IC) What drives you in life?  Why do you want to be Grim?
      -Theres nothing that drives me more than War and the defense of the Horde!  Protecting my brothers and sisters keeps me going everyday, and all those who get in my way are asking for death.  The reason I want to join the Grim is because there has never been a time I have come across them, and havent been in awe of their guild.  I will admit that when I applied before, I was doing it to hastily and it was a rash decision.  After turned away, I trained and grew in both knowledge and power, realizing that I was naiive before.  I want nothing more than to join Grim, finally achieving my goal.
(IC) What did you do prior to The Grim?
      -I wandered the lands, and tried to gain power.  From city to city I went, fighting the alliance and the questing...that pretty much sums it up.
(IC) What are your thoughts on the pact between the Alliance and the Warchief Thrall?
      -Only a fool would make a pact with the Alliance.  I dont understand how a Warchief could be so mislead.
(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 I will be right at home.
(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 you joining?
    -It pretty much intwines with it perfectly, which is part of the reason I wanted to join so badly.  I had a simillar train of through until I met them.
(OOC) What sort of role-playing experience do you have, online or off-line?  Do you consider yourself a beginner or Gary Gygax?
      -I have role played on different myspace groups, which shouldnt really be considered but have done it much more on lately on WoW.  I would consider myself in the middle.
(OOC) Do you have any previous WoW experience?  (PvP, Raiding, Battlegrounds, Different Servers, Different Guilds, Different Factions, etc.)
      -I do alot of PvP now a days, and have done the practice rounds at the battleground against other members.  I have been in and out of three other guilds in my attempts to get strong enough to be accepted by the Grim.  As for another character, I had a level 22 blood elf on "Durotar".  Nothing special.
(OOC)  What are you, the player, looking for in the Grim? What are your expectations of the guild?
      -Structure; organization.  Thats what I have been looking for all across WoW and thats  all I expect.  I hope that if accepted, I will see the guild opperating through some sort of respectful ranking system.
(IC/OOC) Do you have anything further to add?
    -As I said earlier, I applied before when I was only a lvl 35 and worked so hard to get where Im at now.  During the time I trained I realized a lvl 35 cant do much of anything against true opponents, so it was for a good reason I was turned away.  After so much work, determination, and countless bombardments against the Alliance I truly think I am ready now.

You were instructed to return to us when you had learned to use a tranquilizing shot, yet here you are ~ and at your current level of training, I can think of no instructor who will teach you such a skill.  All you have succeeded in doing is showing us that you cannot follow simple instruction.  What did you hope to accomplish?

I went to my trainers and didnt find any such shot; regardless I trained and thought that it was the right time.  I am sorry that I have failed once again.

((Close!  60, heh.))

I wanted nothing more in the entirety of the horde than to join the Grim which is why Ive trained so hard for so long but also why I seem to act so rashly and fail to achieve the tasks set before me.  I suppose the way things are working out, Im not expected to join.  Its a harsh reality and Im sorry for having wasted your time.  :Salutes:    I suppose I will see you all during the troubled times as defenders of the horde.  Feel free to delete my topic, and once again; I apologize for wasting your time.
