“ Honor, young heroes… no matter how dire the battle… never forsake it. ” - High Overlord Varok Saurfang
IC Info
After the fall of Varok Saurfang outside the gates of Orgrimmar, the whole of the Horde was in mourning. However, as Saurfang said himself, hope cannot be killed. Many brave souls chose to fight in his name, joining together to form the Sons of Varok. While not a formal military group by any means, the Sons serve the Horde nonetheless, with several goals in mind.
- Maintaining the honor of the Horde, no matter how dire the battle.
- Defending the Horde and eliminating those who may seek to harm it, whether it be internally or externally.
- Inspiring those around them to remember Saurfang’s tenants and sacrifice.
- Work alongside the Alliance to prevent another Fourth War scenario.
We are the Sons of Varok. We are Honorbound.
OOC Info
The Sons of Varok are a relatively new RP guild dedicated to standing by and fighting for Saurfang’s ideals and tenants in the name of the Horde, as well as cooperating with the Alliance in order to secure lasting peace. It is technically a military RP guild, but not as formal in terms of organization. Think of it as the Horde’s answer to the Alliance’s Sons of Lothar. We lack the subgroups of several military RP guilds, and the rank system isn’t as complex.
Our events consist of patrols, supply runs, D20 events, and more to be planned! In general the guild is mostly intended to be tight-knit and focused on simply wanting to serve and defend the Horde rather than the nitty-gritty army life.

Joining
If you wish to join the Sons of Varok, feel free to whisper/mail any member of the guild, and they will direct you to an officer or even straight up be an officer by chance! Alternatively, if you wish for a more direct response, feel free to message Krexxal#0843 (Hukaga) on Discord! It’s preferred that you join on a higher-leveled character for ease of transportation for events, but any and all levels are welcome!
The Sons of Varok serves as a safe space for any and all who wish to join. Bigotry, discrimination, harassment, etc. isn’t tolerated whatsoever. The main part of joining a guild is joining for the community. If it’s a toxic community, why bother?
We’re also open to allying and working with other guilds, regardless of faction! It’s always great to form bonds with other guilds on this server. We are also interested in working with an Alliance RP guild for a potential storyline. If you wish to join forces with us and be listed as an Allied Guild, let us know!
PvE and PvP
Of course, World of Warcraft is far from being a roleplaying game alone. The Sons of Varok intend to provide PvE and PvP content for those in the guild, but RP always comes first. Raiding, PvP, Mythic+, and Arenas are something we want to delve into with your help!
Allied Guilds
- The Skyheart Tribe
- Warsong Offensive
- Scarred Blade Clan
- Hearthfires
Closing Remarks
When I started this guild, I was hoping to fill a niche by providing a military RP guild without the stressful structure behind it. While there are people who prefer the structure, the Sons of Varok are intended to be more open in that regard.
I hope we can provide some great RP for those who join and the server as a whole!
