Arcane theory seminar tomorrow! Excited. :smiley:

I think for now we will make these monthly to space out some time between the expansion launch and such. I know we all canā€™t wait to dig our hands into some fresh, new content to explore.

Anyway, itā€™s a great time to join us as we start moving on with a story for Shadowlands and other fun things along the way!

Hello, I am at the purple parlor at the moment and I donā€™t see anyone! Is this event still happening?

edit: alright I guess this must have been postponed or something! Hope it goes well whenever it ends up happening!

The Scourge Returns : Mission Synopsis

Participants:

Saedre, Catisa, Mason, Zellanar, Tristrim, Skelryn, Ewandaer, and Dairon.

Summary:

Down the pass that leads up to the Violet Bastion estates within the mountainous cliffs of Redridge, The Violet Bastion assembled to assist the Eastvale Logging Camp with waves of Scourge attacks. Not only did the Violet Bastion seek to protect the camp, but the path to our estates as well. Given the waves, if the Scourge reached our gates, thereā€™s no telling how long the protective wards could truly hold with already exhausted operatives.

Fighting off waves of Scourge attacks, the Violet Bastion found the last wave of attacks in the appearance of a frostbrood vanquisher; an undead dragon from the frozen tundra of Icecrown itself! Felling the creature, we did not carry on without any hits and at the end of it all, Catisa Wells fell into some sort of magical coma - but not by the Scourge itself. Who knew but this suspicious Waren Fitzgerald who appeared a rather ā€˜convenientā€™ time, speaking of the prophecy once more and conscripting a reluctant Violet Bastion to aid in recovering an artifact of Old Gods origins that could restore the woman.

Casualties/Injuries:

Catisa (coma), Saedre (cuts from bone shrapnel), Skelryn (cuts from bone shrapnel), Dairon (cuts from bone shrapnel), and minor frostbite from icy attacks group wide.


Closing Notes: The Violet Bastion will continue to defend the estates and its neighboring communities, while taking in refugees. We will also work with Waren Fitzgerald for now and see about restoring Catisa from her fallen state, for no amount of healing magic, potions, and cleansing spells have been able to revive her.

Weā€™ll be taking it easy and enjoying Shadowlands ourselves in the coming weeks, we hope everyone else does too and that the launch goes smoothly! Have a great launch!

TVB is taking a small break on guild events until Dec. 4th so our members can enjoy the new expansion features and level. Smooth expansion launch has made us all here in TVB very happy campers too!

Anyway, we are still recruiting and if you are a returning player looking for a guild home - check us out! Weā€™re pretty cool if I do say so myself! Honestly, if you vibe well with a guild that feels like a tight-knit family and is inclusive to new members, then you will find it here!

Happy leveling!

Launch has been a blast! Discovering new story and lore everywhere while experiencing this content with friends has been wonderful! We are looking forward to jumping back into things once everyone has had adequate time to enjoy the fresh content at their own pace and we have plenty of twists and turns coming for guild plot!

We also have MONDAY MOG MAYHEM starting back up to look forward to and a brand new one- PVP WEDNESDAYS!

Our lovely GM has been working hard to make the site look even better in her spare time! Special thanks for all of her hard work <3

What we are currently up to:

Curious about what the Violet Bastion is up to now? Hereā€™s a list of some details!

  • The Violet Bastionā€™s estates continues to be a place of refuge for those who were displaced from their homes in our neighboring communities.

  • The Scourge remains a present threat that we continue to push back from our neighboring communities such as: Redridge, Elwynn Forest, Duskwood, and even Stormwind City.

  • A portal system has been established on the estate grounds connected to Dalaran. Some refugees have been evacuated there, while some remain on our grounds. The network is used to help filter in assistance from the Argent Crusade and some of the Ebon Bladeā€™s knights.

  • A mysterious Prophet appeared with wild claims of a prophecy foretelling of a great being of shadow that will bring about the end of all things and knowledge of a ritual that would stop it. Four Servants and several ancient relics are required for the ritual, but one of the servants has already been located. The Prophet revealed that Catisa Wells was The Oracle, leaving only three to find. The Hand, The Seeker, and The Speaker. Executive Assistant Wells was convinced Waren speaks the truth and gave them a lead on where they may find the first of the missing Servants.

  • After an especially brutal attack which included a mighty frostwyrm, Catisa Wells collapsed in a frozen heap even though she suffered no wounds. The Prophet Waren Fitzgerald appeared and offered a solution: The Bracelet of iiqaathā€™yahf.

  • After a treacherous expedition into the depths of the Titan ruins in the Storm Peaks they were able to locate the Bracelet and restore Miss Wells! Though the ancient relic revealed an ugly truth as well. Catisa Wells was undead and the presence in her mind that hid this had left when the veil was shattered and the way to the Shadowlands opened. With the power of the bracelet she has regained control once more, though her new state comes with quite a few adjustments for her as well.

  • With Miss Wells ā€˜revivedā€™ our search for the remaining Servants continues.

RP returns tomorrow night with a guild meeting IC followed by a mission abroad once more!
