SiteDo or Death Knight
Nothing witty or thought-provoking tonight. I’m in a bit of a slump. I’m loathe to admit it, but I’ve been remiss lately and haven’t logged into any of my girls on Feathermoon US. Since I learned that my beloved guild had somehow gone missing, I’ve found myself surprisingly disappointed with the game. Mind you, I’m still raiding when needed1, but I’m just not finding myself driven to do much of anything else on that server.
I know that I can roleplay anywhere — and, mind you, I have been doing so just fine! — but I was immensely fond of the fledgling guild and I’m still dismayed by its sudden absence. The fact that no one seems to know what happened or that I can’t find any of the regular names around any more leaves me more bewildered than anything else. So, I grudgingly level my neophyte mageling and druid on Shattered Hand so that I can spend more time with my beloved sibling.
However, in the back of my mind I have been wrestling with an idea or two. You see, I’m in a bit of a quandary; the second World of Warcraft expansion, “Wrath of the Lich King”, will be coming out sometime within the next year and the latest word that I’ve heard is that no new character slots will be added to each realm. From what I can recall, originally I had read that a special hero-specific slot was going to be added, allowing people with ten characters on a server to roll a Death Knight with impunity. I approved of this idea since I’m currently running amok with a flock of ten girls on Feathermoon US.
Which brings us succinctly to my dilemma: if I felt a burning desire to roll a Death Knight, I’m going to have to delete one of my girls. And I’m loathe to do so.
As I noted, I have ten characters on Feathermoon. I adore them all, which seems like a strange thing to say — they’re just virtual avatars, right? Sadly, you may have forgotten that I’m a roleplayer. Each of my girls have a very unique personality, a rather well-defined background, and very a very definite voice in my head. So even though I might very rarely play the silent Julsca Breakspear, fledgling orc shaman, or Hajnal Guthhrafn, the dwarven rogue who grew up not in Ironforge but in the verdant forests of the Hinterlands, they’re still creations that are very dear to me. And while I try to sit down and decide which of the ten I could ever possibly part with, I find that there’s not a single one that I’m willing to delete.
Which is disappointing, because I have this absolultely wonderful idea for a Death Knight and his2 story ties in beautifully with Cili née Mariska Stormborne, the Third War engineering veteran who found herself in a misadventure that resulted in her rebirth as a Forsaken mage.
