We are Forsaken. The time to exact our retribution against the Kingdoms of the Alliance has come. The Tirisfal Deathsworn are seeking all able-bodied Forsaken and appropriate sympathizers to gather arms and deliver justice onto the enemies of the Dark Lady! For the Forsaken!

Who We Are…
We are a group of Forsaken RP’ers who feel that the once grand culture of the Forsaken RP has reached a low point of stagnation and we aim to revitalize that. We yearn for the glory days of the Forsaken, not this pitiful and sniveling apologetic and defeated caricature of what the Forsaken have become. We are first and foremost a paramilitary organization. All members are veterans of the Forsaken military campaigns of the past, and that fraternity (or sorority) is an overlying theme of our alliance. We renounce all Forsaken “leaders” who would impose such a defeatist charge on us as a people, and recognize that our true leader, The Banshee Queen, was the only rightful Forsaken leader to claim leadership. In her absence, we have elected to act as a military and social order to govern aspects of Forsaken military operations through our organization, and finally exact our vengeance on the Alliance for their hand in forcing the destruction of the Undercity! Bring on the blight, remember, patience… discipline, beware the living, and Dark Lady watch over you!
Headquarters: The Sepulcher, Silverpine Forest
Ranks
Deathlord: The Guild Master, but think of it as part of a larger council with the Executor branch. Yes, the Deathlord will make some of the more arbitrary decisions on important matters when consensus can’t be reached, however, the organization is run very much like a council more than a dictatorship! As we pay reverence to a now vacant throne, our last official leader was Dark Lady Sylvanas Windrunner, and we patiently await her return or someone worthy to take her place on the throne.
Grand Executor: Along with the Deathlord, the Grand Executor will be making many of the administrative decisions for the organization when the Deathlord cannot be reached. The Grand Executor is very much akin to a Prime Minister role compared to, say, a President, and will act as the voice of the other Executors in the governing forum.
High Executor: The High Executors are the leaders of the official Deathsworn organizations listed below - such as the Deathstalkers or Dreadguard - and will be responsible for overseeing operations of that particular group. They will report directly to the Deathlord and Grand Executor to receive orders and disseminate them to the Executors and Deathsworn of their combat group. High Executors will be personally selected at a conclave between the Grand Executor and the Deathlord.
Executor: The Executors are the non-commissioned officers of the Deathsworn military. They will be in charge of working with commissioned officers and leadership to finetune the administration of the organization and act as a liaison between leadership and the rank and file members. Only Deathsworn who show exceptional prowess and devotion to the Tirisfal Deathsworn will be granted the rank of Executor.
Deathsworn: These are officiated members of the Tirisfal Deathsworn. All who wish to attain the rank and title of Deathsworn must undergo an in-character interview and discuss their character’s history, and what they will offer to the Tirisfal Deathsworn. Only full members will be eligible to participate in official guild events.
Risen: New members who express interest in joining the ranks of the Tirisfal Deathsworn. Members will be able to progress to the rank of Deathsworn after completing an IC character interview. Prospective members must display some expertise with roleplaying and have a backstory established for their character, as well as an idea of where they might see themselves best fitting into one of the guild’s organizations.
Organizations (Combat Groups) [Class relevance encouraged, but not mandatory]
Deathguard: The rank and file military force of the Tirisfal Deathsworn. The Deathguard will be the bulk of the Tirisfal Deathsworn’s military forces. Risen, who are not yet ready to ascend to the position of Deathsworn, will be required to serve in the Deathguard regiment and establish a reputation for themselves before moving on to other organizations [OOC; members who need time to establish an RP for their character will be given the chance to build one with the Deathguard]. Melee classes encouraged, but not required.
Barracks: Tarren Mill, Hillsbrad Foothills
Deathstalkers: Much like the Forsaken military counterpart organization from which it gets its namesake, Deathstalkers will be involved in clandestine affairs of the Tirisfal Deathsworn. Joining the Deathstalkers will involve a rigorous vetting process as well as an oath to silence pertaining to all activities and operations the Deathstalkers are engaged in. Ranged and stealth classes encouraged, but not required.
Barracks: [REDACTED]
Dreadguard: The Dreadguard are the elite soldiers of the Tirisfal Deathsworn. The Dreadguard will work with the Deathstalkers to conduct long-range reconnaissance operations deep into the heart of enemy territory. As this combat group requires battle-ready warriors, only maximum-level applicants with appropriately leveled gear will be considered. Any class that meets the aforementioned requirements will be considered.
Barracks: Andorhal, Western Plaguelands
Cult of Forgotten Shadows: The Cult of Forgotten Shadows will serve as the Tirisfal Deathsworn’s religious and clerical sect. Healers, medics, shadow priests, warlocks, and practitioners of the arcane are encouraged to apply! We hope to be able to offer somewhat regular religious services such as mass or communion through ordained Deathsworn. Spellcasters encouraged, but not required.
Barracks: Deathknell, Tirisfal Glades
The Royal Apothecary Society: The Royal Apothecary Society will be our Special Warfare branch of the Tirisfal Deathsworn. Herbalists, alchemists, apothecaries, and the like will be responsible for advancing… “exceptional”… methods of warfare against the enemies of the Tirisfal Deathsworn. Professional herbalists and alchemists encouraged, but not required.
Barracks: The Sludge Fields, Hillsbrad Foothills
Special note to non-Undead/Forsaken races:
This guild is primarily geared towards Forsaken characters (or Undead, including Death Knights). As such, non-Undead members will be expected to provide some extra reasoning for their interest in joining our guild, namely in providing a more thorough explanation as to why they are interested in joining and how their RP story fits into a Forsaken-centered guild.
Added note to other RP guilds (Horde and Alliance alike)
As a guild, we are highly interested in joint RP events in the long run. In the interim, our primary goal is recruitment, but feel free to reach out to either me (Blighthallow) or Rotspite to inquire about putting such arrangements into fruition. Alliance guilds should inquire if they are interested in arranging joint W-PvP events - we are always on the lookout for nemeses (especially pesky Worgen)!
