Look for Fallsfar, Timtim, or my main Lezjeck (who I will tuck away and bring out one of my lowbies to party w/you). If you need anything either, I can provide minor stuff, ie: I can make wool bags easilly, and cloth items as long as any special components are gathered....

Heh, I thought you were just ignoring me.

My main is Lezjeck, my troll priest is Threehand, and I also have Fallsfar, Greyfang and Timtim. Hopefully the wife will abscond with the kids tommorow leaving me a large window for WoWing.

Not "officially" in the guild yet. I've seen some of the Clan inside AD, but they looked like they were busy at the time. Right now I'm in the learning phase (like, "why does every alliance character gank me ever three seconds? Because I had turned on my PVP flag not realizing you have to turn it off again...found out only after a couple hours of...excitement). Been spending most of my time around the Crossroads and the small village south of it in the Barrens, gathering materials to practice tailoring. My other characters are all under 10th but if anyone has a lowbie pc they want to run through stuff, I'm game.

How about a mailing list/thread? Ie; everyone lists what their two main characters are looking for, say 2-3 items, if they're easilly found stuff (like light leather, linen, copper, etc.), then put it all on a spreadsheet so that next time you come back from a stroll through the barrens with 30-40 hides, you can just mail them off directly to whoever needs it at that point. The actual quatermaster would be better for the rarer items I would think...stuff that is drop only, otherwise whoever is "playing" the quatermaster will spend all their time just playing warehouse manager. Add skill points in people's crafting skills, so that there is a spread to who gets specific items first; the best crafters get the pick of the litter because they can make the best stuff with it, and the beginners get a larger share of the cheap junk to get a jump on points. Folks could start emailing me info and I can cut and paste it into a spreadsheet in a matter of minutes, then update it whenever needed.

((Couple items: 1. I hate wasting things, and I've always been a terrible packrat, but I hate to see things go to waste. My question is if the clan has some sort of quatermaster/mule for goods to be used by the clan as a whole. For instance, my main, a Foresaken Warlock, has a couple stacks of leather and some hides, a gold bar, some gems, etc, that he doesn't have tradeskill to use, but it would be stupid to just sell for the piddley silvers they'd earn. I'd rather see them go to crafters who can make some use out of it. Even if there is no actual such respository, if people started a thread "wishlish post" that they continually updated, with items they are looking for "need X to enchant this item/need Y tradegood to practice this skill/etc", then for example I'd mail them the gold bar, hides, etc. Obviously I wouldn't ask for anything in return until I've earned my place and folks don't think I'm setting up to enrich myself and run. 2. Re: Joining the Skullcrushers - I have a couple options. Right now my main is a Forsaken 21 Warlock...he works well for my soloing style, which is slow, tactically-sound, and a character who is more intrested in aquiring knowledge and exploring than racing up the level tree. I have other character concepts I'd like to develop, which are RP-oriented. One is my Troll Warrior Timtim, and my Tauren Shaman FallsFar. I don't know the WoW mythology enough to play a priest (From my NWN days I came to feel that priests/clerics are not mages with a different set of spells, they have to KNOW who they're priests of...that doesn't affect me here as much if others do it, but for me, I can't do it). So the question I ask is: Which classes are needed the most? A brief glance at the roster leads me to believe that developing a warrior would be the greatest merge of my RP intrests with clan needs, but I only see one other priest on the list, and very few druids. Is this a pressing need for the clan (the healer-types), or do you genrally find enough pick-up healers to round out your requirements? I could figure out a background for a healer-type character if someone could point me to a good resource for the relgions "in" WoW. The undead don't really strike me as being concerned about the other races as much, so Troll mythology if I was going for a Troll Priest, or I could reroll FallsFar as a Tauren druid focussing on healing. Also, what trade skill is most underrepresented in the clan? I'll focus on whatever is needed, even if it's just gathering skills. My initial guess from the roster is that engineering and enchanting are the most underrepresented, but if in practice other skills are more needed, let me know. Also, if you see Leszek in-game, say hi. I won't settle on a "true" main character until I hear back about acceptance into the clan and determine what sort of character you guys feel would most help in balancing your needs.))

((Thanks! I was a player and then DM for two+ years on a hardcore RP NWN server, it was esentially D&D played online, about 180 degrees from what most MMORPGs are like, but everything has it's strenghts and weaknesses. There's a lot I like about the game design of WoW, and the best way to improve the experience is find "good" (whatever that means) players to play with. Hopefully I've found such folks, and I plan to give as well as I get.))

The young bull is seen around the ridges at the foot of the Tauren seat of power, his armor so covered with armor patches his arms seem swelled larger than an orc berserker's. An exasperated teacher makes certain that Falls-Far learns all the secrets of healing and patching armor, and tries not to think about maybe he was dropped TOO far on his head. "Hello orc brothers," Falls-Far will look up to every orc as if they, personally, pushed back the rampaging centaurs. Sometimes he will shadow a group of warriors, watching intently as they fight, examining the bodies and practicing his bandaging skills on foes too far gone to complain.
