Active Characters
These characters are currently active and available for RP.
Ace Stormhammer
Race: Dwarf • Class: Paladin • Homeland: Ironforge
RP Hooks
Ace is a Stormhammer, a respected family of smiths famous for their magical hammers. They say it was the Stormhammers of Ironforge who crafted the first of the weapons now entwined with the image of the gryphon riding Wildhammer clan. Today, her father has invested considerable wealth into building a path of influence meant to carry him to the Senate.
Those who run in political circles and the families around power may have been surprised when Aiseia took up arms and armor in the name of the light when anyone would have expected her engagement to Halvard Ironbeard - an alliance that would have helped her father's cause considerably. But when the Light wills, one must obey, after all.

Would have respect for (and possibly familiarity with) anyone who has fought in either war, especially those who fought in Southshore during the Second War. Also deeply admires (to the point of near-worship) any veterans of the First War, and will hang on their every word, particularly if those words involve old war stories.
- Mercenary: Prior to his involvement with Cobalt Company, was active in the Eastern Kingdoms mercenary field, and has established himself as an effective and reliable (if sloppy and unprofessional) mercenary of low-to-moderate renown.

Auralind Mistwalker

Faction(s): Sentinels (Moonhunters)
RP Hooks
- Sentinel: Auralind is a Sentinel of moderate renown. She is a scout with the Moonhunters faction.

- Members of Westfall's PEOPLE'S MILITIA four to six years ago might be acquainted with Ben, who first offered his services to the militia as a blacksmith and then later enlisted as a militiaman himself.

- Members or associates of the ARGENT DAWN (or Argent Crusade) who served in the Plaguelands in the last year or two, or anyone who was at the Battle of Light's Hope Chapel, might know him.
- Anyone MIGHT HAVE READ last year's brief history Being a First-Hand Account of the Battle for Light's Hope Chapel, by one Ben Elias Hazan, available at booksellers and newstands in Stormwind and Ironforge.
Bertrand Aspenwood
Race: Human • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Stormwind
Faction(s): Alliance Army, 7th Legion
RP Hooks
Bonk
Race: Gnome • Class: Mage • Homeland: Gnomeregan
RP Hooks
- Sons of Lothar: If you were stranded on the wrong side of the Dark Portal these past couple of decades, Bonk probably made you a sandwich at some point.
Boopsie
Race: Gnome • Class: Warrior
RP Hooks
- RP Hook: Need someone assaulted, kneecapped, destroyed, bent, torn, folded, spindled, and/or mutilated?
Brendol Westwind
Race: Human • Class: Warrior • Homeland: Lordaeron
Faction(s): Argent Crusade

Faction(s): The Silver Hand, The Argent Dawn, The Argent Crusade
RP Hooks
- Knight of the Silver Hand: Trained under Sir Gavinrad.
- Andorhal: Lived there for many years as a young adult.
- Argent Dawn/Argent Crusade: Member in good standing.
Briyanthe
Race: Blood Elf • Class: Priest • Homeland: Silvermoon City
Faction(s): Silvermoon City, Tranquillien
RP Hooks
- Nobility: People who are part of Blood Elf's High society definitely know Briyanthe, or at least her family.
- Priestess: Blood elven, and potentially Dwarven and Human (as well as former human) priests might have known her while she was studying the ways of the Light with humans. Genuine believes in the Light living in Silvermoon might know her as well, as she's very vocal about her faith.
- Political intrigues: Help her or hinder her from reviving her house's previous importance.
- Ego & Prophecy: She thinks she's the Chosen One because of a dream she had. It's bound to provoke a reaction in other people.
- Medical things: Maybe you know how she could heal her brother? A way that doesn't involve… being the Chosen One.
Caederin
Race: Night Elf • Class: Druid
Faction(s): Cenarion Circle
RP Hooks
Cenarion Circle: Despite how the world has changed, the Moonglade has long been where Caederin chooses to find respite and catch up with old friends. She often offers up her time to deliver messages from the Circle to Feathermoon Stronghold, presumably because she has personal connections there. People who frequent either location may have had passing adventures or relations with her.
Felwood, Winterspring: Caederin visits both of these regions frequently, her personal goals often intertwining with the endeavors of adventurers, locals and travelers.
OLD: Kaldorei history is beyond storied, there are plenty of times and places where she could have crossed paths with those of her kind- all those memories sort of swim together after awhile.
Recent visits to the Eastern Kingdom: Caederin is particularly interested in the ecology of the marshes north of the dwarven territories. Her travels for reagents and shared experiments often bring her to Loch Modan and Menethil via Theramore.
Caliette Glenarvan
Race: Human • Class: Warrior • Homeland: Lordaeron City
Faction(s):
RP Hooks
- Lordaeron nobility: The Glenarvans were quite well-liked in the upper eschelons of Lordaeron's ruling class. Anyone from Lordaeron might know them; those in the army might know Audric.
- Stormwind nobility: Though the Glenarvans hold no titles in the kingdom of Stormwind, they did retain most of their wealth and are, as a courtesy granted for their service both in the wars and after, still addressed as Lords and Ladies. They continue to move in and among the nobility, while having no seat on the council. Additionally, her youngest sister was just introduced to society, and is making the social circuit as marriage-bait.
- Stormwind army: Her younger brother is a calvary lieutenant and might be known to anyone who recently served.
Callum
Race: Human • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Lordaeron
Faction(s): Alliance army
RP Hooks
• Alliance Army: They've been in the army since Year 20, and have a sterling service record. They have been mostly in Theramore and Kalimdor, but could be recognized by anyone who was in service during the past 7 years.
• SI:7: They were once an assassin. Notable for the fact that they eventually lost all concept of moral decisions, and was put into the army to try to recover their skills for the Alliance in an acceptable way.
• Colson Aspenwood: The paladin responsible for their recovery.
• Betting: Callum loves betting. Win/lose, they will gladly and happily bet against your character for most things. Where are they keeping all that gold? Who knows.
Captain Zath Tyrrell, 7th Legion, 6th E.U.
Race: Human • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Lordaeron
Faction(s): 7th Legion
RP Hooks
- 7th Legion: Most members of the 7th Legion are familiar with Tyrrell by name at least, whether or not they're directly above/below him in the chain of command, because he's one of the few warlocks, and the only one leading a unit.
- Slaughtered Lamb: Most people in the Stormwind/Alliance warlock community think of Tyrrell as both a source of pride - "See, warlocks can be useful!" — and an annoyance (he thinks he's too good to hang out with us).
- Mt. Hyjal: He was very prominent in the defense of Mt. Hyjal. At the time, he was a frost mage, and his Blizzards were infamous. There were rumors that he had a thing for Wyrmbane (if so, Wyrmbane was oblivious).
- Lordaeron Nobility: Those familiar with the Lordaeron House of Nobles might remember that his father held a seat there, and might even know of his sister Ursula, who stood to inherit. He was the more or less irrelevant Mage Brother.
Casker John
Race: Human • Class: Priest • Homeland: Stormsong, Kul Tiras
Faction(s): The Black Company, Kul Tiras Marines
RP Hooks
Fellow veterans of the Second or Third Wars might be acquainted with him. Wildhammer Dwarves might know him. Anyone with connections to the Church may have met him.
Caspis Silvershade
Race: Night Elf • Class: Druid • Homeland: Ashenvale Forest
Faction(s): Cenarion Circle
RP Hooks
- Cenarion Circle: Caspis is intensely interested in the politics of the Cenarion Circle, and would likely be known to other druids, at least a little. He was known for speaking out against Staghelm in the past, but lately he seems to have fallen in line.
Celaven
Race: Night Elf • Class: Priest • Homeland: Nordrassil
Faction(s): Priesthood of Elune
RP Hooks
- Night Elves: If you spent much time in night elf society in the last 500 years, you might know him.
- Mercenary Companies: For the past near-decade, he's served off and on with several mercenary companies. Contact me if you want to make a connection through that.
Cheep
Race: Gnome • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Gnomeregan
Faction(s): The Argent Dawn, The Argent Crusade
RP Hooks
- Argent Dawn: Cheep would be known to other members as one of the Argent Dawn's quartermasters. She was an orderly in one of the medical tents during the Battle of Light's Hope.
Chuck Silversong
Race: Human • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Darrowshire
Faction(s): Bard
RP Hooks
- Chuck Silversong: Your character might actually recognize her! Chuck was famous, and even if your character didn't like her or her music, they'd have known about her all the same. The might have even heard about her downfall, although given what happened with the Prince in the end, maybe Chuck was right to be yelling about him in the middle of the street, huh?
- High Elves: Chuck spent a lot of with the High Elves. She even knows some of the naughty curse words.
- Draenei: Chuck left her self-enforced retirement specifically to find out about the Draenei. This is it folks. You have a Draenei character you are dying to talk about their background and history and deep relationship with the naaru? BOOM. Talk to Chuck. She'll give you credit in the acknowledgments section of her next album.
Coriene Bloodsong
Race: Blood Elf • Class: Mage • Homeland: Silvermoon
Faction(s): Magisters
RP Hooks
Magisters: Did your character go to mage school with Coriene? Are they magisters together?
Silvermoon Nobility: Sin'dorei nobility is a social game, so anyone from a major or minor house may have encountered Cori at any number of social gatherings. Nobles of other species may also have made contact with her - she likes wide networks.
Arcane: Cori would not let politics prevent her from consulting with other mages on something arcane and interesting.
Countess Morgauna Thenedain
Race: Human • Class: Mage • Homeland: Tirisfal, Lordaeron
Faction(s): House Thenedain, Stormwind House of Nobles
RP Hooks
- Noble: Morgauna is a Countess, originally of Lordaeron but now recognized in Stormwind. House Thenedain's resituation in Stormwind is entirely due to the machinations of her mother, but Morgauna herself is proving to be a skilled courtier.
- Lordaeronian: Though she did not face the Scourge directly, Morgauna lost her homeland like every other refugee from Lordaeron.
- Political Ambition: Despite being an outsider as a former Lordaeronian, Morgauna successfully campaigned for a seat in the House of Nobles (a prize undoubtedly due, in part, to her mother's scheming as well). Morgauna will not rest on her laurels; she has plans for Stormwind now that she is in power. She intends to push a heavy infrastructure agenda…and likely House Thenedain and other displaced Lordaeronian houses will benefit from her projects.
- Unmarried: It is rare for a noblewoman of Morgauna's age to still be single. There have been proposals, but all declined. Exactly what sort of marriage arrangement is she looking for?
- Secrets Are Currency: Morgauna tries to keep her own nose (mostly) clean, but her mother is an expert at digging up the lurid and unsavory details of others' lives, especially peers among the nobility. Such knowledge has been more valuable than any amount of gold to House Thenedain.
- Family Differences: While she has been molded by her mother, Morgauna doesn't always see eye to eye with Evelaine.
Cressidha Aspenwood
Race: Human • Class: Mage • Homeland: Stormwind
Faction(s): Cobalt Company
RP Hooks
- Tailor: Cressidha can make you clothes. They will probably be stylish and fashionable.
- Enchanter: Cressidha has gained some renown for her enchantments by this point, particularly among Cobalt Company.
- Stormwind Noble: House Aspenwood is rather rich. Money has never been a concern for Cressidha. Her reputation is stellar.
Crim Ragefang
Race: Orc • Class: Shaman • Homeland: Nagrand
Faction(s): Warsong Clan
RP Hooks
- Warsong Clan: Other members of the Warsong Clan may know him, or perhaps night elves who fought against him in Ashenvale during the Third War.
- Third War Vet: He was a young man during the war and fought in many battles, including the Battle of Mount Hyjal.
- The Brawlers Guild: Anyone who frequents the Brawlers Guild in the Deeprun Tram, would recognize him as the fight ring’s medic.
Dara Tennerow
Race: Human • Class: Priest • Homeland: Redridge Mountains
Faction(s): Church of the Holy Light
RP Hooks
Church of the Holy Light: She joined the Church in August Year 27, and is a priest novice.
Nobility of Stormwind: Any noble can potentially know her. She's very social.
Desinae Raugh
Race: Human • Class: Paladin • Homeland: Brill, Lordaeron
Faction(s): Argent Dawn
RP Hooks
Argent Dawn: I have a problem, I love this faction so much you have no idea. Open to any AD avenue :D
Investigations in Duskwood: Anyone happening to be in Darkshire in weeks past, probably couldn't have helped but to see the entourage from Stormwind.
First to Fall: Brill was a tragedy, but whos to say any of the forsaken might not be old friends or family? To be honest, these relations probably won't go over well.
Drunagh Ashenstone
Race: Dwarf • Class: Paladin • Homeland: Ironforge, Dun Moragh
Faction(s): Ironforge Guard (former), Scarlet Brotherhood (former), Knights of the Silver Hand (former)
RP Hooks
- Former Ironforge Guard: Before becoming a paladin, Drunagh served for many years on the Ironforge Guard, first as a guardsman and later as a Thief Catcher.
- Former Scarlet Crusader: However briefly, Drunagh was part of the Scarlet Brotherhood before they purged the non-humans from their ranks. She may have met other Scarlets and ex-Scarlets who were part of the order in those early days.
Duchess Avrenne Esprit Fallon
Race: Human • Class: Mage • Homeland: Lordaeron
Faction(s): Alliance
RP Hooks
- Lordaeron Nobility: Avrenne and her family were well known, well placed, and extensive. Chances are you knew of them, if not any of them personally. Those of Nordaeron nobility or frequently visiting Stormwind nobility have likely some tie to them, in one way or another. Avrenne as the third of her House was a dangling marriage option for much of her youth. It was The Circumstances that made her the sole inheritor of the title and only survivor of the main branch.
- House Fallon: Avrenne is the Lady Fallon, as well as the Duchess Esprit, as part of her marriage to Siamus Fallon, who sits on the House of Nobles and is the Vice Admiral of the private Fallon Fleet. Those who follow the political sphere will note that Avrenne's support of her husband is absolute and unwavering, and in a deviation from her usual neutrality she has a keen interest in the reestablishment of a true navy of the Alliance.
- Reputation: Avrenne has a reputation of being cold, logical, sensible, and intelligent. Men and women both would be aware that she does not flirt. Although she has a cool manner, she is not known to be unkind, simply known unlikely to be moved by sentiment or feeling. She often appears to have no agenda of her own, offering up objective-seeming assessments rather than strong passions or controversial opinions. She has a wide web of connections, and powerful friendships. Someone looking to achieve political aims would want her as an ally.
- Stormwind House of Nobles Plot: Although never obviously only for any single candidate — she maintained what seemed to be a neutrality of positions of only presenting information and observations about each — she became engaged to Baron Siamus Fallon during the campaign, clearly for more than one reason. She is now the wife of a House member, another was her Maid-of-Honor, and several more are connected to her personally. Those who are on the House or seeking to pass legislation through it would have reason to speak to her.
- Northrend Supplies and War Effort: Avrenne is one of the more notable and larger suppliers for the war effort, with particular attention given to the larger scale war requirements. It's not hard to discover the name of the House that is behind the requisitions for someone looking.
Eckart Barlowe
Race: Human • Class: Death Knight • Homeland: Lordaeron
RP Hooks
- Lordaeron: Anyone could know Eckart from his time on the guard in Lordaeron, or even from growing up on the farm in Tirisfal Glades.
- Barlowe: He's a Barlowe. He looks like a Barlowe. He looks a lot like his father, though Karson smiles sometimes. Seen with Ivri or compared to her, he looks more likely to be her dad than Karson does. Anyone who knows a Barlowe male would likely think he kinda looks like them.
Eilanthe
Race: Night Elf • Class: Hunter • Homeland: Zin-Azshari
Faction(s): Sentinels
RP Hooks
Eilanthe might be known to:
- Sentinels or former Sentinels
- Veterans of the Battle of Mt. Hyjal
- Queen Azshara's courtiers or mage loyalists from before the War of the Ancients
Eiradrin
Race: Blood Elf • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Tranquillien
Faction(s): Silvermoon City
RP Hooks
- Identity theft: There are a few clues that could help someone discover that Eiradrin isn't the real Eiradrin. The real one didn't use to be as in-shape, athletic and agile, her face, her voice, hair, and personality have somewhat changed since she disappeared, she doesn't actually know much about Jewelcrafting when it used to be her whole life. Most importantly, the hidden peacebloom tattoo she had on the back of her shoulder has disappeared. Some magisters and other people close to somewhat high-ranking members of the government know who she really is.
- Ex-Farstriders: Somewhat related to the last point, she worked with the Farstriders for decades, which means some of them are bound to know her. Her fighting style is also reminiscent of theirs, especially her archery.
- Ex-prisoner: Again, similarly to the last point, she was imprisoned in Silvermoon at some point. She probably had cellmate(s) in there!
- Assassin: When mind control isn't enough to stop agitators in the Blood Elven capital, sometimes Eiradrin is the one called to do the dirty job and dispose of the problematic citizens, using her signature poison.
- Jewelcrafting: She basically has no idea how to create designs for jewels herself. She learned how to make jewels and simply copies others, but since there's a risk that her shop might close as she goes on adventures to "find inspiration", people buy them as fast as they can before they're gone and they get FOMO. She's accidentally a marketing pro! The people she plagiarises might not like it, though.
Ekorenine
Race: Human • Class: Mage • Homeland: Stormwind
Faction(s): Kirin Tor
RP Hooks
- Kirin Tor: Your character might have been her student at some point, or she could be right now. She's the kind of person you can also come to if you don't understand a spell or need help deciphering one.
Eldau
Race: Tauren • Class: Druid • Homeland: Tanaris
Faction(s): Cenarion Circle, Cenarion Expedition, Horde
RP Hooks
- A druidism teacher: Eldau learned from the Night Elves in Moonglade. Maybe you character(s) taught him!
- Cenarion Expedition: He works with them, as well as the Cenarion Circle on Azeroth. You might know him from here!
- Crimson Coterie: Not an IC member, but he's very closely interested in them and wouldn't mind helping, if given a good enough reason.
Elowel Aro'ephel
Race: Blood Elf • Class: Paladin • Homeland: Quel'thalas
Faction(s): Blood Knights
RP Hooks
- Poor Little Rich Girl: House Aro'ephel is ludicrously wealthy and has been for generations. Elowel is her father's heir apparent, and as such he has pushed her hard her entire life to prepare her for the role. Rumor has it that recently he has expressed disappointment with her performance and has even cut off her allowance.
- Well-Traveled: Before the Third War, Elowel traveled all over the Eastern Kingdoms for many decades in various capacities.
- Celebrity: Elowel has earned some degree of fame for a variety of mostly unrelated accomplishments, including:
- Her status as an Aro'ephel.
- Her dueling tourney successes.
- Her reputation in acting circles as the Crimson Lady.
- Many affairs with other famous people (any of which may or may not be true, though she never strictly denies them).
- The slaying of Dar'Khan Drathir — a key component in the sin'dorei being accepted into the Horde.
- More recently, her creation and leadership of the Crimson Coterie, a rising mercenary guild in the Horde.
- Cobalt Player: Elowel was once one of the Cobalt Players, the acting troupe led by Elohad Ference. Though that relationship ended badly, she continued her acting career for a while (and never missed an opportunity to criticize one of Elohad's shows).
Elrissadel
Race: Night Elf • Class: Druid • Homeland: Ashenvale
Faction(s): Cenarion Circle (reluctantly)
RP Hooks
The Cenarion Circle / Teldrassil: If you've spent any time around either in the last 3-4 years you may have seen her around.
The Battle for Mt. Hyjal: She was a courier between factions during the fighting, once again you may have seen her around.
Emerine Nightvine
Race: Night Elf • Class: Rogue
Faction(s): Sentinels
RP Hooks
- Sentinel: As a scout for the Sentinels, she's been all over Kalimdor.
Enaliya
Race: Night Elf • Class: Death Knight • Homeland: Hyjal
Faction(s): Knights of the Ebon Blade
RP Hooks
-Members of the Knights of the Ebon Blade would know of her reputation as a willful troublemaker, often neglecting her duties as a torturer in favor of playing with her “toys” or working on so-called “art projects”. She is and always has been primarily motivated by satisfying her own cravings and desires rather than fulfilling her missions.
-Members of the Scarlet Crusade may be familiar with her as a formidable enemy of their order. She is also renowned for defeating a famed champion paladin by driving him mad.
-Sentinels and veterans of the Battle of Mount Hyjal might remember her as a huntress who died in battle, dragged away by ghouls after sacrificing herself to save a group of cornered comrades.
Ephemel
Race: Blood Elf • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Silvermoon, Quel'thalas
RP Hooks
- Agency: Ephemel's drive for freedom and personal power could draw her to anyone that can help her to achieve these things.
- Something Wicked This Way Comes: Ephemel is attracted to all things dark and mysterious. Other warlocks, assassins, even death knights will all catch her interest.
- Silvermoon Nobility: Try as she might, Ephemel cannot escape the legacy of her blood. She is a daughter of House Aro'ephel, and that sometimes comes with certain expectations and consequences.
- Missing Mother: While others may have given up by now, Ephemel cannot let go of the mystery of her mother's disappearance.
Erixa
Race: Draenei • Class: Paladin • Homeland: the Genedar
Faction(s): Vindicators
RP Hooks
- Vindicators: If you're a draenei vindicator, you may know her.
- Draenei: If you're among the draenei on Azeroth, you could know her.

- Performance Arts Enthusiast: Music, singing, theater, fashion - both creation of and wearing of.
- THE LIGHT
- Argent Confessor: Characters associated with the Argent Dawn may know Etone for his service as a Confessor and tactician for the organization. Before his exit from the Scarlet Crusade, he had other roles as well
- Exploding undead for great JUSTICE: Have you been in the Plaguelands lately? Do you like setting skeletons on righteous fire?
- Nax storylines: If your character is involved with investigating or engaging Naxxramas, there will be things to discuss.
- Definitely not anything to do with the void or shadows: (J/K Yes please. Ask me about the morality of being an inquisitor for the Scarlet Crusade in the past, ghosts and other exciting topics.)
- Potential for Death Knights to try to convince him not to smite on sight? Good luck.

Gausanders
Race: Human • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Lordaeron
Faction(s): Alliance
RP Hooks
- Warlock: He is a warlock, some people don't like it, some really don't like it, others don't mind. Not only that, but he ran into some problems with the warlocks of Stormwind recently and has been stealing books from the ones in Ironforge. Maybe some people wouldn't be very happy it much.
- Unknown biological family: Maybe Sandy looks like someone you used to know? Maybe he has the exact same face as your baker or the Undead that lives across the street? He now has a little more information on his parents.
- Wait we can't do that!: You're looking for someone to do something fun and dangerous? He's your guy!
Gavynn
Race: Human • Class: Paladin • Homeland: Lordaeron
Faction(s): Scarlet Crusade

Faction(s): Kirin Tor
RP Hooks

Gethennis
Race: Blood Elf • Class: Mage • Homeland: Silvermoon
Faction(s): Kirin Tor
RP Hooks
- Kirin Tor: Kirin Tor folks would absolutely have heard of him. Mostly bets placed on how long before he is too hung over to function at meetings.
- Silvermoon Parties: If you go to a lot of parties in Silvermoon, your encounters with Geth are probably the sort that will make it difficult to make eye contact with him when you run into him on the street in the light of day. If you even remember.
Granny
Race: Gnome • Class: Mage • Homeland: Gnomeregan
Faction(s):
RP Hooks
Any gnome from any point might know her, know of her, or have seen her. They might have been fed by her ("Muffin, dear?") or saved by her or had to save a tiny ancient gnome from a trogg.
Dwarves, too, might know her, for many of the same reasons.
Be aware, though, that almost no one knows her name. If you think your character would, let's chat! It could be fun!
Gruze
Race: Troll • Class: Mage • Homeland: Stranglethorne Vale
Faction(s): The Horde, Darkspears
RP Hooks
Arcane stuff: Gru'ze is extremely interested in the Arcane. Its frost and fire applications, he's got them down perfectly, but he struggles more with everything that's pure arcane. His version of Arcane magic is ancient and can be a little different from what "modern" magic is.
Kirin Tor: Dalaran. The Kirin Tor. All your knowledge. Let him in. Let him iiiiiiiiiiiin.
Undeath: He despises the undead. Forsaken and Death Knight come have fun hating him!
Warlocks: Gru'ze has no interest in being a warlock. He's done some pretty dark magic before it was forbidden by the Horde. He certainly won't judge someone who uses the Fel! He's just curious about how this all works.
Gwenivene Whittle
Race: Human • Class: Mage • Homeland: Westfall, Kingdom of Stormwind
Faction(s): Kirin Tor, the Scryers
RP Hooks
Identity
- Westfall Girl: The Whittles are a Westfall family originally. Though they left their farm behind and moved to the city, they have roots that go back many generations in the west.
- You Had to Be There: Gwen's jokes aren't always the best, but her delivery is sincere and full of childlike glee. She has even found that her bad jokes (and the occasional verbal sound effects) aid her in focusing when casting spells.
- Noble…Wait, Really???: Gwen has only recently become aware that she carries noble blood in her veins. Technically she and her mother are the last scions of the fallen House Chandrey. Though…it's hard to inherit a whole lot of nothing. So, the title is fairly meaningless and she has no intention of laying any claim to it.
Mages & Magic
- Now You’re Thinking With Portals: Gwen is a telemancy prodigy. She possesses a seemingly instinctive understanding of spatial mechanics and is able to accomplish telemantic feats far beyond what should be possible for her age and training. Need a lift somewhere? Something important sent quickly and securely? Gwen is more than happy to serve the needs of friends and the Alliance.
- THAT Gwenivene Whittle?: Gwen earned widespread fame for her her breakthrough in telemantic research that found the means to safely open portals between Outland and Azeroth. She is always quick to point out she was aided by several others. But, ultimately, she tends to get the credit no matter what she says.
- Sanctum Mage: Gwenivene spent several years training in the Sanctum in Stormwind City as the student of the crotchety old Archmage Purdwick. Other Sanctum mages may know her!
- Kirin Tor: Due to her accomplishments in telemancy, Gwen has earned a place in the Kirin Tor and is considered a rising star in their ranks.
Halliday Bristow
Race: Human • Class: Mage • Homeland: Southshore

- Death Knight: Other Death Knights may know or have heard of the self-proclaimed Lord of Blood.
Hexera
Race: Human • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Lordaeron
Faction(s): Cobalt Company
RP Hooks
Hexera's interests are rarely not peaked at the mention of demons or odd magics.
She has few connections to people outside of the company or her family, but has become very defensive of the Company and will often go to extreme and unauthorized lengths to insure the safety of the guild, sometimes without the authorization or knowledge of the leadership, though these moments are rare.
Hu'yubi
Race: Troll • Class: Hunter • Homeland: Echo Isles
RP Hooks
Horde Military: She's an eternal low-ranking grunt type; you might have fought alongside her in some battle or other.
Darkspear: The Darkspear are a fairly small and tight-knit tribe, so most of the Darkspear likely know her, though some may know her as Dia.
Icaros
Race: Draenei • Class: Death Knight • Homeland: Argus
Faction(s): The Ebon Blade
RP Hooks
- Draenei: Literally any draenei who crashed in the Exodar pretty much know each other, and Icaros is well known even as fellow Draenor-exiles go, due to his age and experiences.
- Ebon Blade: He is already making a name for himself as an obedient yet intelligent member of the tightly focused organization. Other death knights should know him to be reliable and easy to work with.
- Argent Dawn: Argent Dawn members might remember him, because a Draenei frost mage was such a peculiar thing to have among their ranks. They might also remember that he died. Worst case, they remember his return at the Battle of Light's Hope.
Ilanya Ravendusk
Race: Human • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Elwynn
RP Hooks
- House Ravendusk: If you've heard of this exclusive club, Ilanya is your contact point.

- Flowers: Ilanya is actually very interested in flowers, poisonous or otherwise. What? They're pretty.
Ilinaia
Race: Night Elf • Class: Hunter • Homeland: Night Run
RP Hooks
- RP Hook: Sentinels in particular would have had the word spread to them about Naia's past and her likely corruption by the Satyrs.
Illisane
Race: Blood Elf • Class: Hunter • Homeland: Eversong Woods
Faction(s): Farstriders
RP Hooks
- Any sufficiently high status hunter may have gotten one of their pets from the Sunstalker clan
- Any Farstrider who survived probably knows her; the Wowpedia entries make it clear that, even among the near-total devastation of blood elves in general, the Farstriders had it the worst as they were the ones continually fighting Arthas while steadily being pushed back to Silvermoon.
- High society blood elves probably know her or her name. She's quite wealthy these days; moreover, she has a way to keep acquiring wealth. She also has some status as someone who stood with, then against, Sylvannas Windrunner.
Imrolane Palemoon
Race: Night Elf • Class: Druid • Homeland: Val'sharah, Broken Isles
Faction(s): Cenarion Circle
RP Hooks
- Venerable: She may not seem it at first, but Imrolane is very, very old. Though she no longer uses her original name, and she looks and behaves very differently, there may still be those from the old days that could recognize her.
- Pariah: Any kaldorei that was heavily involved in the War of the Satyr could know of her connections and why she is not a revered archdruid, despite her age and power.
Iphindra
Race: Night Elf • Class: Druid • Homeland: Mount Hyjal
Faction(s): The Dryads
RP Hooks
Nature loving: Anything related to nature could be fun!
Past life: Iphindra has forgotten all about who she was as a Kaldorei, and used to be completely different. Those who have known her a few hundred years ago might be surprised to see how much she's changed.
Criminal?: Before disappearing, Iphindra stole something important to the druids. Perhaps one day she'll be punished for her crimes.
Ismene Hazan
Race: Human • Class: Priest • Homeland: Southshore
RP Hooks
Anyone from Southshore would know the Callis family and their famous cider. It would be difficult to see how anyone would LIKE her parents, but Ismene herself is mostly known around there as "that poor Callis girl" with the browbeating mother and the distant, cold father.
I'd love to find someone who was one of the adventurers who rescued her town, especially the priest!
Also, if someone trained at Northshire Abbey while she was there, they might know her.
Isyldir
Race: Draenei • Class: Hunter
RP Hooks
- Rangari: Other draenei may have worked with him on Draenor.
Ivrianna Atley
Race: Human • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Lordaeron
Faction(s): None

Anyone who spent time in Lordaeron (the city) has the potential to know her family and/or her.
Anyone who lives in Stormwind could know her, her brothers, her father (deceased as of the start of WotLK, or her mother (guard trainer, also deceased as of the start of WotLK).
Anyone in SI:7 or with ties to Ravenholdt could conceivably know Ivri or know of her.

Kaerix
Race: Draenei • Class: Shaman • Homeland: Draenor
Faction(s): Earthen Ring
RP Hooks

Kaleyah Margrace
Race: Human • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Kul Tiras
Faction(s): Former pirate (Blueskull Buccaneer, Wastewander) , currently free blade
RP Hooks
Hunter for hire: Does what it says on the tin. She's not picky and seems capable enough, violence or scouting alike.
By way of the waves: She's well traveled and doesn't turn down business even from members of the Horde. So many faces come and go.
Curious by Nature: If you can do something neat, she'll probably sit and watch you do it while noisily eating.
Looking for a home: She may not even notice it, but she's quick to take a liking to anyone who respects her. She -is- capable. She's also guarded, self focused and has been shown that premeditated violence solves problems. Perhaps the right kind of mentors and positive reinforcement could demonstrate that her future doesn't necessarily need to be dictated by the traumas of her past.
Kas Duskwing
Race: Blood Elf • Class: Hunter • Homeland: Silvermoon City, Quel'thalas
Faction(s): Farstriders
RP Hooks
- Farstriders: Anyone who served as or alongside the Farstriders in the last 50 years.
- Veterans of the defense of Quel'thalas.

Katerinn Greywatch
Race: Dwarf • Class: Hunter • Homeland: Thelsamar, Loch Modan
Faction(s): Bronzebeard Clan, Mountaineers
RP Hooks
Kehda
Race: Draenei • Class: Mage • Homeland: The Genedar
Faction(s): The Exodar
RP Hooks
- Family history: Kehda's family is famously known for going full evil. Some Draenei must wonder when it'll be her turn to do so, and rumors about her secret evilness go around.
- Stories: Kehda loves a good story! She's always interested in hearing more of those. She also loves to tell her own, but often skips over the part where she says they're fictional. She may have told some stories about you in the past.
- Scourged fish: Kehda always carries a fishbowl with her as a satchel. There is a living, very small fish in there. It is sick. It looks like it's carrying the plague. Oh no.
- Helping hand: Kehda is actually pretty nice and optimistic. She won't hesitate to help someone. The story she tells people after might be very different from what happened, though.
Kerawyne
Race: Dwarf • Class: Warrior • Homeland: Ironforge
RP Hooks
- The Bronze Kettle: Her brothers shop near the flight path in Ironforge, if you've hung out there you've probably seen her.

Kiekel
Race: Gnome • Class: Death Knight • Homeland: Gnomeregan
Faction(s): Ebon Blade
RP Hooks

- Family member: Kiekel has a large family. You might be related to him or have (had) a close relationship to one of his many siblings!
- Death Knight: Whether you're one as well, you hate them, or feel extremely close to them, Death Knights like Kiekel might not leave you indifferent.
- Argent Dawn: He's worked with the Argent Dawn in the past, extremely briefly, though. You might have been one of the people who saw him panic, flee and disappear into the Plaguelands, never to be found again.

Lode
Race: Night Elf • Class: Druid • Homeland: Feralas
Faction(s): Cenarion Circle
RP Hooks
- Cenarion Researcher: Lode may be known of by those who have participated in the investigation of Silithus, who are involved in the druids' knowledgework, or who have any interest in her specialty of strange lifeforms and their methods of 'speaking'.
- Young Sentinel: Lode was a capable but undistinguished Sentinel for a period of time that might be considered 'short' by many night elf standards. She was someone who did as told and wound up so frustrated that she threw herself at druidry with the fervor of the trapped.
- No One Can Give Claw the Slip: Lode is a recent inductee of the Druids of the Claw, using her form shifting to access heightened senses that serve her research as much as the ferocity to protect herself.
- Tinkertown Regular: Lode has picked up some basic principles of Gnomish engineering and shops around.
Lord Eoan Westbridge

Faction(s): House of Nobles
RP Hooks

Mayellen
Race: Human • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Westfall
RP Hooks
- Slaughtered Lamb: If you hang out with the Stormwind warlock crowd, you've probably seen Mayellen around. She is not terribly sociable with other warlocks and has a bit of a "thinks she's too good for the rest of us" reputation.
- Westfallian Gossip: Due to the timing of her birth and how quickly Thurman Mullby "rescued" Edna from her well-known infatuation with Byron Hazan, people joke that the "May" in Mayellen's name stands for "May not be Thurman's." (She is, though.)
- Stormwind: Even if you don't hang out with warlocks, you definitely know Mayellen at least a little as the daughter of the Mullbys, who run the most popular general store in the city. She helped them off and on in the store from the age of ten or so, and was very cute in the way that children are cute who don't seem to realize they are children.
Merenel Hartvigsen
Race: Human • Class: Priest • Homeland: Andorhal, Lordaeron
Faction(s): Argent Dawn (Formerly of the Clergy of Lordaeron)
RP Hooks
Citizen of Lordaeron: Probably the weakest of possible links, she was a farmgirl, afterall.
Argent Dawn: The older hands know each other in more ways than five. There are plenty of tales to tell.
Merenel of the Blue: As the dread Citadel blotted out the skies of the Eastern Plaguelands, a patrol of the Dawn was caught between roving bands of Scourge forces for two days. On the final night of their stand, waves of Scourge bodies battered their frontlines, quickly pressuring them into what would be a killing field. A favored friend, Templar Lerrain gave Merenel his sword. Words were exchanged between the two, leaving her in tears as they both marched to the frontlines. In a moment of dire heroism, he invoked every ounce of his faith, bolstered by Merenel's prayers.
The ground before them was seemingly consecrated, searing the flesh of ghouls and Lerrain alike. Merenel herself stood, staff planted in the fetid earth, whispering one litany after another as coruscating energy burned away the undead in veils of blue, holy flame. When she was next conscious, it was in bedrest at Light's Hope, her eyesight damaged and her hair bleached white.
Those who survived the night gave her the title, though she's never performed an act like such before or since.
Merhea

Faction(s): Alliance

- Chaplain: Mordecai is available for funerals, weddings, and counseling.
Natai
Race: Draenei • Class: Priest

Nesselos
Race: Draenei • Class: Shaman • Homeland: Draenor
RP Hooks

Netelle
Race: Undead • Class: Warlock • Homeland: A village near Lordaeron
Faction(s): The Forsaken
RP Hooks
- Crimson Coterie: Sirie would love to get to work with her colleagues! That sounds exciting!
- Her past lives: Sirie has all her memories from her past lives, including the ones from when she was living and what she did under the Scourge.
- Ennemies: Horde or not, if you cross her, you will be silently cursed with no warning. That usually does not help her make friends, once people realize where their pain or bad luck comes from.

Faction(s): The Explorers' League
RP Hooks
- Ex-Pirate: Though she was never much of a buccaneer herself, Nix served on a pirate crew for several years.

Nunuzac
Race: Draenei • Class: Shaman • Homeland: Genedar
Faction(s): Exodar, Earthen Ring
RP Hooks
- Genedar Passenger: Nunuzac was a flight baby born and raised on the ship itself. She has no memory of Argus, but because of the slow reproduction of the draenei, that alone might make her recognizeable to some of the exiles who journeyed on the ship.
- Shaman Adept: Shamanism is the new hotness among the draenei, and she managed to wheedle her way into instruction. Likely to know other recent inductees on the path.
- Outland Wanderer: Nunuzac wanders far and wide across the shattered lands looking for elemental instabilities to repair. She is quite liable to bump into others by random circumstance!
Nylarria
Race: Night Elf • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Ashenvale
RP Hooks

- Pariah: She and her kind stick out like a sore thumb in proper night elf society. Anyone who has lived in the forests of northern Kalimdor for an extended period of time may have seen glimpses of her as she travelled about in search of prey.

Race: Dwarf • Class: Hunter • Homeland: Dun Morogh
Faction(s): Bronzebeard Dwarf
RP Hooks
- Second War: Veteran of the Second War in the Ironforge Siege, much of Oranna's destiny was shaped by her experiences in that year.
- Animals: A hunter with an affinity for animals, talking about training pets, or the inherent wonderfulness of the creatures of Azeroth is a surefire way to engage Oranna in conversation.
- Titans: Oranna doesn't believe they exist…probably. Or maybe they do, but they're not gods, gosh.
- Origin of the Dwarves: It's a touchy subject, but she was there in Uldaman when the origins of the dwarves was unconvered.

- Ambassador: Her gift for understanding languages and cultures has long made Paluuva valuable as a diplomat for the draenei when dealing with other peoples. The Alliance has come to appreciate her talents as well and made her a formal ambassador.
- Arcane Scribe: Her gift for and love of language made Paluuva and natural for the art of mystical inscription. She is talented at producing magic scrolls, glyphs, and related written materials. (See what Paluuva can create here.)
- Sibling?: Paluuva's brother and sister may or may not have remained behind on Argus or joined her on the Genedar; this has been left deliberately vague for the time being.

Faction(s): Alliance
RP Hooks
- The Fel: He will have strong opinions on it, and its use, system, and dangers.
- Demons: His area of expertise!
- Photography: His hobby! Pippinlopper's primary fun hobby (which he takes very seriously) is photography, where he can go on at length about the color pink and its place in black-and-white photography. His office is covered in photos of him and his demons in various locations throughout the world, as well as subjects of interest, all of which have exacting documentation of what it is, why he took the photo, and when he did.

Ranneowyn
Race: Blood Elf • Class: Paladin • Homeland: Eversong Woods
RP Hooks
- Ballerina: A famous/infamous dancer who has performed all across Quel'Thalas. If you are a fan of ballet or other forms of dancing performances, you may recognize her.
- Flirt: While it likely ended as soon as it began, elf gentlemen may be able to boast of a passing romance with her as she travelled across Quel'Thalas.
- Hushed whispers…: Her mother, Piriam, was the pride of the small town Ranneowyn was born in. She is an incredible singer and anyone would have told you she was bound for Silvermoon. However, after the scandal that ensued with her becoming pregnant, unmarried, at the ripe young age of 117 that dream was dashed. While no one ever said it to their faces, there is certainly a perception that Ranneowyn runied her mother's life.
- Noble Blood?: TLDR, Ranneowyn has claim to a noble title that can serve as a hook for romance(?) RP if anyone wants to engage with this hook to create a political drama story.
Her father, Doriyen, was born into the prestigious Phoenixheart family. This noble house, while relatively small, was respected both for its members' incredible swordsmanship as well as their integrity, honor, and impeccable morals. However, as time went on and the trolls became less and less of a threat, the house of warriors began to fall upon hard times for want of work. It was during this time that Doriyen came of age. While he shared the rest of his family’s knack for swordsmanship, his morals were found wanting. The young man was a hopeless womanizer, and would find himself running off with a new woman almost every other week, causing no small amount of trouble for the rest of his family, trying to mitigate the damage he was doing to their house’s reputation. The final straw came when Doriyen’s parents betrothed him to a young woman from a much wealthier house in order to solve their financial problems, but this plan was ruined when Doriyen went off and had a fling with a different girl from a rival house. With that, Doriyen’s parents decided he was more trouble than he was worth and disowned him, and he took on a new name, Noonshade, and went off to be an adventurer, the life he had always wanted all along anyway.
And this was all there was to say on the matter until the Third War. When the Scourge invaded Quel’Thalas, Doriyen set off from Dalaran to come to the aid of his homeland and stave off Arthas’ advance. He ultimately gave his life fighting to protect Silvermoon and had his noble titles posthumously reinstated for his service. His widow, Thuraniel had every right to claim his inheritance, but she refused, as did her son, Taeavon, following her example. With that, the Phoenixheart house is set to be dissolved as all of the main family was killed in the war as well as virtually all of their legitimate heirs. However, the keen observer will note that a single perfectly legitimate heir still lives, the commoner girl, Rannoeowyn Dawnstrider. While her father may have never formally recognized her as his own in life, he did do so in his will in which he left a significant portion of his wealth to “my eldest daughter, Ranneowyn”.
Ranneowyn herself is not really aware of the importance of this detail, nor does she feel any desire to chase after nobility when she is perfectly happy living as she pleases being a dancer. Much like her father, she values her freedom and makes enough on her own to live in comfort, but she might feel differently if gaining this position could allow her to salvage her mother’s reputation and provide her with a better life. Still, though, a commoner like her would be hard pressed to defend her claim against all of the other houses that would stand to gain from Phoenixheart’s collapse, but should someone else come along who is equipped to handle these issues, they may be able to negotiate with Ranneowyn into creating a mutually beneficial relationship.

RP Hooks
- SI:7 — Roper was a top agent once, and some might still know him by his agent name 'Roper.'
- The Ebon Blade — Roper has a plan to elevate the Ebon Blade up high enough to become a normal part of life in Azeroth, safe from the mobs with pitchforks. The longer this goes on, the more likely your character can have heard of him or Syarra, the leader of the Death Knight PR team.
- Syarra — Roper's wife and the leader of his group. Make her your problem, Roper is your next problem.
- Colson Aspenwood — Those who know the paladin might find Roper's reaction to the name is anything but neutral.
- The Scourge — The mission is clear: end the Scourge, unthrone the Lich King, save Azeroth. Roper loves a clear mission.

Race: Night Elf • Class: Hunter • Homeland: Zin'Azshari

"Bounty Hunter"—If you have the coin…Or have crossed someone who does…But this persona has proven to be more of a ruse to disguise her true motives.
Blue Dragonsworn—Inducted and sworn by Colbaltann to serve the Blue flight since before the War of the Ancients. Loyal to Lord Malygos.
Former Sentinel—Was at Hyjal. Has since left the Sentinels

- Explorer's League: He regularly works for the Explorer's League, which he considers a source of amazing adventures.
Sintha Fallon
Race: Human • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Tiragarde Sound, Kul Tiras
Faction(s): SI:7
RP Hooks
- STORMWIND ARISTOCRATS are likely familiar with her; she seems to be everywhere in society — though often gliding just at the edges, never standing at the indiscreet center. Society ladies have likely been air-kissed by her at one time or another; Sintha is the three-time world welterweight air kissing champion. Society gentlemen might be aware that her family fortune would make her a prize for any noble marriage (despite her ever-increasing age), although she has proved strangely elusive thus far.
- GOSSIPS and avid followers of THE SOCIETY SCENE may have read an issue or two of Milady Moth's Society Sheet, though this would not necessarily alert them to an acquaintance with Sintha, per se. Milady Moth is an ephemeral creature of mystery. Who can she be? Gosh.
- SI:7 AGENTS OR INFORMANTS may be aware of her, to a greater or lesser extent.
Sir Colson Aspenwood
Race: Human • Class: Paladin • Homeland: Stormwind

- Twilight's Hammer: He's got a long standing beef with this cult group.
- Scarlet Crusade: A significant aspect of his arc for becoming a Holy paladin. He will be friendly towards any Scarlets who have left the Crusade, and will be willing to talk to current Crusaders.

- Cobalt Company: If you've heard of Cobalt Company, you've heard of its founder, the very dramatic Lord/Sir Elohad Ference, the Enduring. He's big on PR.
Skylarke
Race: Human • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Westfall
Faction(s): Pirate
RP Hooks
Any sailor might have had a run-in with Skylarke on the high seas. She's also been arrested several times, but no one's kept hold of her long enough to do anything permanent.
Anyone who frequents portside bars and houses of ill-repute might know her. She's flamboyant when she wants to be, and, on the surface at least, everyone is her friend.
Sophiette Valonforth
Race: Human • Class: Paladin • Homeland: Lordaeron
RP Hooks
- Famous Father: Captain Luc Valonforth was a renowned paladin of Lordaeron, and one of the leaders of the 1st Legion Expeditionary Force that followed Arthas Menethil to Lordaeron. He never returned from that expedition and is presumed dead.
- Displaced Noble: House Valonforth was a noble family of Lordaeron, once holding a small barony. Like many such houses, they now reside in Stormwind. The loss of their lands impacted their fortunes significantly. Though still wealthy by common standards, the only real influence they have anymore is their good name.

Race: Draenei • Class: Death Knight • Homeland: Argus
Faction(s): The Aldor
RP Hooks

Race: Human • Class: Warrior • Homeland: Westfall
Faction(s): Defias Brotherhood
RP Hooks
-Rose?: If you were ever a part of the Defias Brotherhood, you may know her.
-Prize Fighter: People acquainted with Stormwind's underground fighting scene might recognize her as the fighter, Roselash.
-Mercenary: Terrineth fights in more than just the ring. She also has a moderate reputation as hired muscle.

Therald
Race: Human • Class: Warrior • Homeland: Tirisfal Glades
Faction(s): Argent Dawn
RP Hooks
- Ex-guard of Lordaeron: Not only was Therald a guard in Lordaeron, which means he has met or seen a lot of people living there, he also took his leave only a few weeks before the orcs sieged the Capital.
- Bad reputation: His family was disgraced after his father attacked a higher-ranking noble. That had an impact on the Oakley family's reputation. Not only that, but the fact that he left his duty as a guard so close to a siege gave him some kind of deserter reputation.
- Guard for the Argent Dawn: As someone who is not versed in the Light's magic, his job at the Argent Dawn mostly consists of keeping watch. He's currently IC working at the Dark Portal (OOC he's level 11, so getting there is kind of dangerous for him right now!). The Argent Dawn might be one of the only groups on Azeroth that perceives him in a good light.
- Small village: Therald is from a small village in Tirisfal Glades. Maybe you come from that area too.
Theris Lysander
Race: Human • Class: Death Knight • Homeland: Stormwind
Faction(s): Knights of the Ebon Blade
RP Hooks
- Librarian: Theris worked as an assistant librarian in Stormwind's royal library before he died.
- Knight of the Ebon Blade: He's dead.
- Protector of Darkshire: Theris has taken up a post in Duskwood, south of Darkshire, where he fights the worgen and undead in the area. He is polite to everyone he speaks to, regardless of how they treat him.
Thurmir
Race: Dwarf • Class: Hunter • Homeland: Dun Morogh
RP Hooks
- Hunter: If you've any experience hunting or surviving in the wilds, you might recognize Thurmir as a kindred spirit. If you've hunted or ranged through the mountains of Dun Morogh specifically, you may even have encountered him, though this is fairly rare.
- Trapper: If you've ever bought or sold furs, pelts, skins, or meat from the traders and market stalls of the villages around Dun Morogh, you may have encountered Thurmir, or more likely his father, Darmir.
Tibbiah Shinbreaker
Race: Gnome • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Gnomeregan
Faction(s): Sons of Lothar
RP Hooks
- Sons of Lothar: Any other members of the first Alliance expedition trapped in the Outlands probably ran across Tibbiah at some point.

TORVALD FAUNTLEROY, GENTLEMAN ADVENTURER
Race: Human • Class: Paladin • Homeland: Ravenhill
Faction(s): Alliance
RP Hooks
- Adventure!: Anything can be an adventure if you call it that and you have low standards, which Torvald does.
Velrin
Race: Night Elf • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Felwood
Faction(s): Sentinels
RP Hooks
- Sentinel: Those in the Sentinels may know of her as a young prodigy that fought tooth and nail to join at the ripe age of 22 shortly after the Third War. You might also note that after a short leave she returned seeming much more mature and with considerable leadership skills that landed her a position as a captain soon after.
- Argent Dawn: Those affiliated with the Argent Dawn or who otherwise have spent time fighting in the Plaguelands might recognize her for her frequent service there as a scout and assassin.
- Keepers of Time: Bronze Dragons or those affiliated with them could potentially remember her from her mission where she went to aid in the formation of the ancient human kingdom of Arathor.
- The Living Legacy: Though she may be much taller and slimmer, Velrin's face is the spitting image of her mother, the Sentinel archer Tenniria Silverbloom. She also has the same long violet hair as her father, the druid of the talon, Arravas Duskwing. Both of them had storied records fighting in the War of Shifting Sands, but were killed by Tichondrius while fighting the Burning Legion under the command of Illidan during the Third War. Other night elves may be familiar with them, or perhaps even Velrin herself by association.
Vesyllah Rivenheart
Race: Night Elf • Class: Priest • Homeland: Auburdine, Darkshore, Kalimdor
RP Hooks
- Extralegal Justice: An acolyte of the Night Warrior — the vengeful aspect of Elune — Vesyllah acts as something of a self-appointed judge, jury, and frequently executioner of the wicked. Those who seek justice within the scope of the law may find themselves at odds with Vesyllah and her methods.
- Hyjal Veteran…of sorts: Vesyllah was involved in a handful of skirmishes in the Third War, and answered the call when Mount Hyjal was attacked. She primarily acted as a medic, tending to the wounded, but had to fight when her patients' lives were threatened.
- Gets by With a Little Help From Her Friends: Vesyllah's work with herbalism and alchemy goes beyond picking flowers and brewing elixirs. She has long experimented with a variety of mind-altering substances to open her consciousness to Elune and the greater cosmos. She is more than happy to share the experience with others.
Vice Admiral Siamus Fallon
Race: Human • Class: Warrior • Homeland: Stormsong, Kul Tiras
Faction(s): Stormwind House of Nobles; the Alliance Navy; Kul Tiras
RP Hooks
- STORMWIND NOBILITY - Southern aristocracy would be familiar with the Fallon name. Though the family might otherwise be disdained as foreigners and new-minted nobility, the fact that they were personally ennobled by King Varian for heroism in the liberation of Stormwind — and the fact that they have shiploads of money — have made them hard to ignore. The Fallons were also instrumental in the rebuilding and expansion of Stormwind Harbor, both financially and in an advisory capacity, a project in which they collaborated with their longstanding allies, House Thenedain.
- LORDAERON NOBILITY - The northern aristocracy may be aware that courtesy of his recent marriage to the Duchess Avrenne Esprit, Siamus is now also Duke Esprit.
- HOUSE OF NOBLES - Siamus has recently been selected for a seat on Stormwind's House of Nobles — due in large part to the canny campaign management of his new wife — so any Stormwind citizen or follower of Stormwind politics may be aware of him.
- THIRD WAR - Veterans who were stationed in Theramore may be familiar with Siamus and/or his late father, Simon. Simon died with Lord Admiral Proudmoore; his son Siamus stayed true to his oaths to Stormwind when Kul Tiras abandoned the Alliance in the aftermath of Proudmoore's death, but he did stir Talk when he very publicly (but without comment) set one of his own fleet's ships adrift off Theramore and burned it. The ship was the Gracious Jane.
- SEAFARING - Sailors, shipping companies, and seafaring sorts of a less savory bent as well as other Kul Tiran emigres are almost certainly aware of the Fallons as naval commanders and privateers. The Fallon crews are known as formidable fighters and masterful sailors; their skill at the latter has sparked more than one wild tale of a near-supernatural relationship with the sea. A not-insignificant percentage of the Fallon sailors are, like the Vice Admiral himself, native Kul Tirans; many of them have been in his service since the Third War, but others seem to have found their way to "the mainland" to join up even after that nation's break with the Alliance.
Vond Satterly
Race: Human • Class: Paladin • Homeland: Stratholme
Faction(s): Argent Dawn, Argent Crusade
RP Hooks
- Student in Lordaeron: Vond grew up as a city dweller in Stratholme, and received a quality education through the Church of Light.
- Not Quite Silver Hand: Older members of the Hand or its offshoots likely knew of Vond's father, North. His mother, Anissa, was a riflewoman in the Second War before setting to raise her family.
- Darnassian Happenstance: Given its timing at a formative point, Vond has very idyllic notions and vivid memories of Teldrassil.
- LHC combatant: potentially recognizable by someone who was present at the battle.
- Cure for What Plagues You: Vond was assigned to cleanse plague immediately after gaining capacity to do so following the Death Knight attack.
Winnie Demasco
Race: Human • Class: Mage • Homeland: Stormwind
Faction(s): Alliance
RP Hooks
- The Law — Winnie is a litigation prosecution lawyer primarily, with a focus on children, custody, and inheritance. She got her start in contract law, however, and still knows her ways around defense.
- Children Without Homes/Families — Winnie's main focus is on trying to re-home children when possible, especially those displaced by sudden Azeroth deaths.
- Stormwind Orphanage — Winnie is a frequent staple here, where she works with children in particular who are in flux at the orphanage who may still have some living next of kin or custody potential, and adoption paperwork.
Wisteria Herald
Race: Human • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Lordaeron
RP Hooks
- Void-Touched: There is something very wrong with Wisteria and her magic.
- "Scarlet" Monastery: Wisteria was raised at the monastery before it became Scarlet. Other characters from there may have known her as a child.
- Scholomance "Student": She was more of a test subject than a proper student, but characters associated with Scholomance would know about her.
Wyriel
Race: Night Elf • Class: Druid
RP Hooks
- Green Dragonflight: Wyriel clearly has ties to them and the Emerald Dream.
Xaafi
Race: Draenei • Class: Shaman • Homeland: Nagrand, Draenor
RP Hooks
- Zephyr - As a shaman, Xaafi communes with all the elements. But she has always had an especially strong connection with the spirits of the air and wind. Perhaps they relate to her flighty nature and propensity to wander wherever impulse or circumstance takes her, with no regard for (or awareness of) borders or rules. She always seems to have a playful breeze twirling around her, tossing and ruffling her hair and clothes.
- Musician - Xaafi lives and breathes music (sometimes literally). Her performances are rather unusual, relying on elemental spirits as her "backup band". She wears numerous hollow reeds of varying gauges on her body that she directs air through to produce notes as she dances. Her staff is adorned with wind chimes and crystal vials filled with water of different levels, which will tinkle together, or produce sounds with rapidly swirling water, or air blown over the tops of the vials. Cracks of lightning or thunderous hoofstomps in the earth serve as powerful percussion. It is an unusual take on some traditional draenei music (though she is starting to take an interest in some Azerothian styles as well), and perhaps not to everyone's taste. But no one can deny her sound is her own.
- Dwarven Accent?! - Though her Common is broken and limited at best, some of her speech has a distinctly Dwarven affectation.
Yveris Starleaf
Race: Night Elf • Class: Druid
Faction(s): Cobalt Company
RP Hooks
- Dancer: Anyone who visited or lived in Suramar may have seen her perform.
- Sentinel: Anyone who has spent time with the Sentinels during and prior to the Third War may recognize her.

Zaara
Race: Draenei • Class: Shaman • Homeland: Genedar
Faction(s):
RP Hooks
- Other draenei: I mean, there aren't that many of them. Especially applies to those who lived and traveled aboard the Genedar, to former Rangari, and to fellow students of Farseer Nobundo.
Zalael Shadowdrift
Race: Night Elf • Class: Rogue • Homeland: It's complicated
Faction(s): Ravenholdt
RP Hooks
- Ravenholdt: Other members of the shadowy Assassin's League may know Zalael.
- Night Elf: Actually, no. With her isolated upbringing, other night elves really wouldn't know her. But her lack of kaldorei customs and behavior would certainly stand out if she spent any length of time among night elves.
Spoiler Warning: The following RP Hooks are major spoilers for secrets about Zalael (and by extension an implied lore spoiler).
Zeldanna
Race: Human • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Stormwind
RP Hooks
- Stormwind Nobility: If you have moved in these circles you may have heard of her or met her.
Ziriel Skyborn

Inactive Characters
These characters are inactive, and may or may not be available for RP. It doesn't hurt to ask!
Aenesha
Race: Night Elf • Class: Priest • Homeland: Felwood
Faction(s): Sisterhood of Elune
RP Hooks
- Priestess: Aenesha is a Priestess of Elune and works as an ambassador for this theocracy. She's got a good reputation as both (and it's up to you to ruin it). She's available for some political RP!
- Shadowpriestess: As a night elf shadowpriestess, Aenesha doesn't work with the void, but by channeling Elune's more vengeful side through her own anger and hatred. She's struggling with this, however, so maybe someone could help her find a way to access these emotions in herself?
- Mount Hyjal: She was there when The Thing happened (and even briefly died)!! Were you too?
Alaril Grey
Race: Human • Class: Rogue • Homeland: Stormwind
Faction(s): Defias (formerly), Ravenholdt
RP Hooks
- People who might have known Thomas Grey, Aly's father

Faction(s): Slaughtered Lamb

Glynara Craghart

Faction(s): Ironforge Mountaineers
RP Hooks
- Mountaineers: Anyone who has recent history in the Mountaineers might know Glynara, as she's made a point of socializing with pretty much everyone.

Faction(s): 7th Legion
RP Hooks
- 7th Legion: You'd know of him if you have connections to the 7th Legion.

Liruna

RP Hooks
- Semi-Famous Ancestor: Neddick Tinkwhistle wasn't legendary, but he was well known in M.E.G.A. (the Mechanical Engineering Guild, Associated) in his day.
- Unruly Demons: Meepsie's control of her demons is tenuous at best, and mostly due to the binding spell that Marioly placed upon them. There is a non-zero chance they will act beyond the scope of Meepsie's instructions (and without her knowledge).
Meriane Donnach
Race: Human • Class: Mage • Homeland: Elwynn
Faction(s): Argent Dawn
RP Hooks
- Argent Dawn: Meri was completely isolated from society until this year, so she's unlikely to have any connections, but if you're heavily involved with the Argent Dawn you have probably run into her a time or two recently.
Niarra
Race: Night Elf • Class: Priest • Homeland: Ferelas
RP Hooks
- Hyjal: If you fought at Hyjal and were a Night Elf, you might know her. She wasn't important enough to interact with the other armies, so it's unlikely any fighters knew her personally, though things got pretty nuts and someone might have seen her.
- Sentinels: It's possible other Sentinels knew her or her mother if they spent time in Ferelas.
- Astranaar: Anyone from here or who's spent time here may know her. She has lived here ever since a few months after Hyjal.
Penlee

- RP Hook: The Dazzlecuts were NOT the source of the malicious rumors about Talvash del Kissel. However, the Razzle-Dazzlecuts may be. They are the black sheep of the Dazzlecut family.
Roriandris
Race: Night Elf • Class: Hunter • Homeland: Ashenvale
Faction(s): Cenarion Circle
RP Hooks
- Old Elves: At 5000 years old, Roriandris has met a lot of night elves. They might not be friends but may at least be passing acquaintances.
- Mount Hyjal: Rori fought at Mount Hyjal and in the battles leading up to it, so veterans of the Third War may have encountered him.
- Mentoring Younger Elves: Part of Rori's time since the war has been spent mentoring younger elves who work with the Cenarion Circle.
- Post-war Alliance Expeditions: Rori has been a scout, guide, and advisor to Alliance military units, particularly in Kalimdor.

Race: Human • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Corin's Crossing, Eastweald, Lordaeron

Tiffi Crinklefork
Race: Gnome • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Gnomeregan
RP Hooks
- Animal Lover: Is that a dog? Can she pet it?
- Trogg Hater: Tiffi has extra explosives just for this purpose.
Timmet Grimblast
Race: Gnome • Class: Warlock • Homeland: Gnomeregan
Faction(s): Gnomeregan Exiles
RP Hooks
- Soul Experimentation: If your character has academic interest in the manipulation of souls, they have probably at the very least read one of Timmet's papers on the subject, as he produces a rather absurd volume of writing detailing his various experiments.
Zara'zara
Race: Troll • Class: Shaman • Homeland: Darkspear Isles
Faction(s): Darkspear Tribe
RP Hooks
- Spirit Magnet: When she dances (which is often), Zara'zara attracts minor elemental spirits that seem to enjoy "dancing" with her.
- Meat Allergy: Zara doesn't eat red meat…or any mammal flesh. It's odd for a troll. But she will become extremely ill if she consumes it.
