What is T.D.C?
The Desolate Commissariat, formerly the Desolate Conclave. We’re an undead centric (but not exclusive) RP guild that has a shadow government theme; that’s right we’re a literal skeleton government. We’ve three branches focusing on military, statecraft and mad science respectively so we’ve tried to create an environment where any character can find a role. Outside RP we focus on organized PvP and Mythic Dungeons.
Where is T.D.C?
Whenever candlelights flicker, where the air is deathly still, that is the time when we are present, practicing our ghoulish delight.
Seriously though we tend to hold our RP events in the parts of Shadowfang Keep accessible in the overworld, as well as the Sepulcher, though we’ve been known to lurk in Dalaran sewers, the Cleft, the Pools of Vision, Raven’s Hill Cemetery and anywhere else monster mashes are prone to breaking out.
Who is T.D.C?
The Desolate Commissariat is run by a Desolate Council of Governors, led by a Prime Governor. The Prime Governor has veto powers but cannot overrule a majority vote. Additionally, many large decisions are decided by the people, with in character or in app voting. Players rank up by attending guild events, contributing to our goals, and can obtain Officer status by successfully organizing, advertising and hosting either an established TDC event or one of their own invention.
How is T.D.C?
Thank you ever so much, nobody ever asks that. Overall, we try to create a friendly and playful atmosphere here. The only behavioral rules are don’t be a prick or a bigot. Beyond that, general rule of thumb is don’t say something you wouldn’t say if you were in arm’s reach. Otherwise the only strict rule is you must have an in-game uniform transmog. Black and Purple are our colors. Additionally, get a spooky mount. Any will do but the Purple Skeletal Warhorse is the ole’ reliable in a pinch. Flying mounts are more difficult in that regard so, be neat if you can get something spooky but don’t stress over it.
Why is T.D.C?
Honestly, we had a more complex idea for a RP guild we hadn’t really seen done yet. Many RP guilds were racially exclusive and the other Forsaken led guilds at the time didn’t really have a motivation beyond “I’m a prick because I’ve a skull for a face”. So, we Frankenstein’s Monstered together TDC, which like the monster has many, many stolen parts, to create a more nuanced environment where any RPer could conceivably find a home. A lot of themes have been taken from the history books, but if you took a DNA swab, you’d find some Star Wars, 40k, SCP Foundation and Resident Evil in there to be certain. It can be a tonal mess sometimes but all in all we feel that we’ve created a wholly unique story-telling apparatus and fun-loving community with our weird little experiment, and would be delighted if you’d want in.
Be sure to bring your death certificate if you decide to join us. Make final arrangements now. We’ve been DYING to have you.
