Volonazra

Chapter Ash

Three weeks past. Inside the smoky, dank sanctuary where he studies the shadow, Volonazra has fallen asleep amidst his tomes and glyphs. An imp toils with a bubbling cauldron and taunts the cat in the next room....

~~~"Cap'n git ub, da clan...! Wez in truble!" cried some peon. Volonazra scans a horrific battle field filled with fire, ash, broken bodies, and scorched earth, sees the clan ravaged and weakened. The wounded survivors staggering toward him, seeking guidance and comfort. "Wat happen? Wer da boss?" ~~~ (Wat wuz dat? me dreamin hmm. got ta git back ta wurk. Uki more light will help me stay wak.) Volonazra lights more candles and returns to the ancient tome.

~~~darkness, nothingness, yet tangible...something. Oppressive...falling....no sinking...perhaps. (Wer dis? Ah dis am da nether void! How me git...) Great shadowy fire talons burst from the stillness and grip Volonazra like a ragdoll. "GRAAAWWW Me gruk lat demon! Lat hab nub powa ova me!" Volonazra knowing that the will is the true power here, begins to fight the unknown demon. Growing in size and form to match the size thing that attempted to hold him. Taking upon himself the shadows to release himself from the demon grasp. Blurry,fast, cloudy. Pain...grappling...fire....shadow....shreding...souls~~~

(Wha wha mmph. Agin da void enter me dreams. Me shuld start skribul dreams down. Wat dis all mean?)He wipes the drool from his tusks while trying to get his bearings.

Volonazra decides to take himself to bed as nothing is accomplished sleeping upon the tomes.

In the demon tongue Volonazra begins a chant:"Sarkresh i summon you to me this night as protector and servant. I have bound your will. You are mine to command!" As the ritual ends, the succubus enters from the nether and is eager to serve its master. Sarkresh stands on cloven feet that clop upon the cobbled floor. She smiles evily and moans:"MMM master, it has been to long." She slides up to Volonazra and wraps her pink tail around his thigh while embracing him. Volonazra relaxes and says:"Me gu sleebie nuw. Lat watch ova me." Sarkresh says seductivly:"Is that all my love, shall i tuck you in?" "Zugzug dat wuld please me tuu. Nub bite su much dis tyme." The succubus gives a sly grin and shuts the chamber door. Whippish...giggle.

Wolf is right, there has not been any celebration/ceremony yet. Sunday there were only a hand full of us logged on, and Xaos being the only "new" graduate. On top of that, the server had ISSUES that night. So far, you all seem to think 9:30 is a good time. Now lets agree upon a day. Im available most any day.

Nobody has a prefrence nor opinion about when to have a celebration? >??

Sorry about the poor planning on the night of Grad. The official end of boot camp remains Sunday. However, lets reconsider a more convienent time for the ceremony. So post what the earliest day would be to have this meeting.

Graduation Ceremony. Sunday, 9:30pm EST (tentative)

Recruits, your two week boot camp officially concludes Sunday. I hope to hold the ceremony to celebrate your promotions and honors of becoming full members. If you are uncertain of your status, check with your drill masta. You have these forums, in game mail, email, PMs, as well as tells in game. If you dont make the effort dont expect to graduate. If you have unfinished tasks given by a drill masta, or any superior, get them complete.

Again, this is not a popularity contest nor test of play time available. As always, attendance to the ceremony is not manditory but there is incentive for those that do attend. >;]

its all fubar atm. dont bother. i have a headache.

/rant on

i didnt mind the 60+MB download. i didnt mind the 2+hr patching process. i didnt even mind not being able to get on remotely close to the time when blizz said servers would be back up.

but...now, at 8:30, wtf blizz where is my SERVER!

ARRRRGGGHHH

/rant off

/happy dance

8:35 im on AD finally

yeah, they reset the server approx. 7:30 last night because there was "loss of content". From what my friends tell me they "lost" all of Eastern Kingdoms! harhar So the formation was canceled for lack of people available. We went clompin in WC instead.

Muru, i think server transfers is coming soon for AD, hang in there.

no objections were made, meeting as planned.

Begging

U

Make

Post a sticky

seriously, i post some usefull stuff once in awhile and it gets buried by my other blabbing.

As yet Argent Dawn is not a selected server for character transfers. I have read/heard they will be doing the realms in order of popluation and in AD may get the opportunity after the initial servers have finished.

If offered i would leave although reluctantly. I have been considering this a long time. I even have rolled characters on the two new RP servers (which i assume will be the AD transfer servers) and watch their forums occasionally. I am seeing AD going on a downward spiral. The community as a whole is changing for the worse imho. Reading the Argent Dawn forums, listening to general chat, and grouping with people has lead me to this decision. The community has become spoiled. They community is blacklisting entire guilds from end game raids, people are becoming loot whores, and there seems to be a sever lack of RPing.

Basically,for me, it comes down to how people treat each other. Looking into the new servers it seems the players there are concerned with the community and building a place where the game is enjoyed by all, not by just the elitist few.

As per the tentative schedule, we will form up once again. Same time, same place, this Sunday. If there is enough of a reason, we can certainly change that time/date. Post if your reason here if you think this time/date needs changed.

I am happy to do it. There were several goals i had in mind. I hoped to gain the clan some great new people to enjoy WoW with, to get the clan involved in something together, and open a opportunity for RP. I think all the goals have been met (at least to some degree).

Just a note to all the "liddul panziez". The level of morale and involvment in Clan Skullcrusher is outstanding. However, the tabard is NOT to be worn untill graduation of boot camp. We are setting new tradition for the clan. Meaning the wearing of our colors is a badge of honor unlike many other guilds who let just anyone wear it. For Clan skullcrusher the tabard guarantees the wearer is more than your average player. I also dont want you to spend your hard earned gold, which is alot for you non-twinks, on the tabard. So everyone knows, our "drill mastas" have had nothing but outstanding evaluations and reports on your progress and are happy with the quality of the recruits they are working with. Additionally those eyes and ears i have outside the clan that are helping keep tabs have reported good things as well.

Another note, alts will be welcome upon graduation. This tradition will allow us to get to know the player without confusion. As it can be easy to mix up whos who. Also lets us cut down on the possibilty of someone dishonoring the clan with an alt and not being held responsible.

Hopefully you understand these traditions are being instituted to ensure the guild is of the highest quality and only an attempt to make it better.

Think the nerf to quivers is bad? The only defense warlock have, fear, is yet subject to another nerf. Now it will cost alot more mana, AND was shortened to a max of 15sec duration. The fear nerfs werent to make the spell work "as intended, just because is was deemed too powerfull by non warlocks and the lovely Blizz developers.

If only they could devise a system in which you got a negative effect for attacking a grey, but you didn't get one if you were only striking back after the grey attacked you first.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

exactly. WHY cant this seem to be done by any designers on any game? Wait o minute, thats logical.....cant have that now can we.

I had been having the same problem. When i would log in, i had to wait several minutes before lag would clear. Also, anytime i opened any window/menu it would cause the game to hang for several minutes. Karnum and i were talking about it and he found the fix. I did exactly as he details and i works beautifully. No more issues, just normal bug and lag. Given the file, is this caused by Cosmos? I have been thinking of dropping it and installing individual addons instead. Each patch seems cosmos gets more and more troublesome.

Reminder: I had stated this, but some have asked so let me formally reiterate. No meeting for this event is manditory. If you can make it wonderfull. If not, we understand. You are not being evaluated based on play time nor availability. Like Grulg once told me, WoW should never feel like a job/chore. This is all for the fun of it. There will be surprises for those that do show up. As well as rewards for doing what your drill mastas instruct. See you there.

Ut oh....oh noes, thats me!

what will the "experts" think up next to get grant money?

i vote good but i have issue with some things. its great that there is going to good reward for pvp. but the fact that killing greys is not dishonorable is just bunk. i hoped blizz would be the first game to figure out griefing sucks and do something about it. glad i chose RP server. i was going to chose pvp, but i figured it would be a gankfest.

Another idea came to me. Are there any members with Alliance characters on Argent Dawn? If there are, i would like to coordinate some battles with you and your friends. If you panzie pushdogs can handle a good clomping, let us know.

Greetings from the WoW chapter. We are hosting a RP event. The Clan Skullcrusher is having it's first Boot Camp. We are starting the event this Sunday, and will be a two week training/trial period for new recruits. The purpose is to have a fun RP event, expand the number of players, and invest the current members in quality of the guild. If anyone has any interest in WoW, now would be a good time to see what can be done in the game and what type of guild we have built. If nothing else, come share a story at the Fire Pit.

See you around. >;]
