IC) What name or title do you go by?
-Keely Blackhoof
(IC) What is your gender and race?
-I am proudly Tauren and quite pleased to be female.
(IC) What is your class in life? Why did you choose to follow this class?
-I am a Warrior, because I was born to be one. My Grandmother is a warrior, as was her father, Kellye, before her. It is not what I do, it is who I am.
(IC) How would you describe yourself?
-I am proud of many things – my family, my tribe, the horde, and my skill as a warrior. But pride never gets in the way of learning and improvement. Nor can pride cloud one’s judgment when discipline and correction is needed.
(IC) How many "Honorable" Kills do the Battlemasters currently have recorded for you?
-4675
(IC) What drives you in life? How would the Grim benefit from having you among its ranks?
-I long for the days of peace that my grandfather spoke of in stories of his childhood. When our land had not been scarred by the Scourge and our people not slaughtered by the Alliance. I can see but one way to return to such idyllic lives, and that one way is to eliminate our enemies.
(IC) What did you do prior to The Grim?
-I wandered alone for a while, hoping to avoid contact and conflict with the Alliance, believing for a time that this would bring about peace. I cast my lot with a guild that joined together to fight the Lich King as he rose to power. This upheaval, this confusion of the elements has made me realize that our world is tearing apart because so many have tried to meld the Horde and Alliance together. To heal our world, we must change what we do.
(IC) What are your thoughts on the pact between the Alliance and the Warchief Thrall?
-If there had ever been even a small hint of honor from any Alliance leader, I would be willing to consider this pact. The Alliance has no honor and no compassion and they deserve none from us. Thrall hopes in vain for a equal partnership with any who go by the name Alliance.
(OOC) The Grim is a role-playing guild that requires full immersion (heavy RP) of their members. What does that mean to you?
-I should be keely the warrior as much as possible while playing Wow. I will speak as her and act as she would act.
(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?
-Keely has tried to go for peace through compromise. It has not worked. The way of The Grim is the only logical solution. I’m ready to embrace it.
(OOC) What sort of role-playing experience do you have, online or off-line? Do you consider yourself a beginner or Gary Gygax?
-I enjoyed D&D in college, played another small (about 1000 players) heavy RP game where I was able to lead a select group of warriors in their quest for true enlightenment (game was Nexus, Kingdom of the Winds – Our warriors were of the Do path). I enjoy immersing myself into a role I have created for myself.
(OOC) Do you have any previous WoW experience? (PvP, Raiding, Battlegrounds, Different Servers, Different Guilds, Different Factions, etc.)
-I started as a human warrior about 4 years ago, switched to horde at about lvl 60. Switched to be able to play and learn from my sister and brother-in-law, because we did no raiding as Alliance. Have loved raiding and learning how to really BE a tank as a horde. I spent some time in battlegrounds as an alliance, just been focused on raiding for a while now.
(OOC) Is this character a server-transfer or has it been renamed recently?
-Always been on Twisting Nether, always been keely.
(OOC) Is this an alt of a current full Grim member? If so, what full member?
-no
(OOC) What are you, the player, looking for in the Grim? What are your expectations of the guild?
-I want players to talk with, raid with, and do achievement runs with and to kill Alliance with.
And I’d prefer no “Jr. High girl” drama. =)
(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 Xondor.
-On average, any night of the week is ok. Sat and sun would be ok, just need to coordinate a time. I can even do days/afternoons with prior notice.
(OOC) Please provide an armory link to your character for verification.
-http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/t ... ely/simple
(IC/OOC) Do you have anything further to add?
-I hope to join The Grim and to be joined by some close friends as well. We are all responsible, dedicated raiders. We enjoy the game and think RP makes things much more interesting. We will devote our efforts to Peace, through Annihilation.
