The Howling Owl is a faction neutral RP event driven guild. We host monthly RP events open to both the Horde and Alliance RP communities. We also have guilds on both Horde and Alliance side of the Wyrmrest Accord server. We’ve been around and going strong since 2018!
The Howling Owl is the name of Azeroth’s premier faction neutral coffee shop and cocktail bar. It’s a place of sanctuary both for guests and staff. A place to forget your worries. Staff is offered free lodging on the premises as well. In need of a way to start over your life? Or just need a change of pace? The Howling owl can be either of those things.
We use The Drunken Hozen in Dawn’s Blossom, Jade Forest as a backdrop. ICly the coffee shop/cocktail bar is located in neutral territory in Pandaria. Lodging and other buildings are also located on the premises and available for staff to use for free.
-We also host various seasonal and special occasion events throughout the year, such as festivals and parties that sometimes even include opportunities to perform!
-Sometimes, we have booths at outside vendor events or are hired to cater events.
-As a guild, we hold monthly guild-only social nights for us to all relax and hang out to RP together too, each with a different theme!
-We do fun activities in Discord such as creative prompts for our guild characters.

What can you expect from joining The Howling Owl?
We have a diverse group of people with us who all love to roleplay and love attending, hosting and supporting RP events to help keep the WrA RP community thriving on both Horde and Alliance!
We have no big storyline that we do as a guild and instead we serve as a vehicle to support your own character’s stories. However, we do host monthly guild only events where we simply hangout together and do casual RP. We also often attend other guild’s RP events to support them. We chat and goof around in Discord and just generally are a laid back sort of group!
What sort of people are we looking for?
We are looking for anyone who loves faction neutral RP and don’t take themselves too seriously! We have a variety of characters with us, from gardeners to dragons and are welcoming of all types! We really just value those who are active and excited about RP and being involved in our events! That said, we keep things laid back and aren’t militant about being at every event. We’re all adults with lives outside of this, after all!
NOW OFFERING PART-TIME POSITIONS!
Interested in joining but already belong to another guild? Not sure if you have the time to dedicate to The Howling Owl or just want to try it out first before actually joining?
You can now join as a “part-time” bartender or security without joining the actual guild! IC interviews are not required for this but you do still need to submit an application (there’s a section to indicate that you want to join as part-time) and agree to our rules! You can always be promoted to full-time later, if you’d like!
We are LGBT+ friendly and do have a requirement of being 18+ to join!
