I mean, this is the forum for a RP server, so I figure why not ask some question like this. It can even be something menial by comparison but just happens to weigh on your characters mind after the fact.

Altielle betrayed her master. Twice.
The first time, he was sympathetic to the Dusk Lily rebels so the Legion recruited her to keep an eye on him. In exchange they would restore her legs and teach her to become a warlock. When she got the evidence she needed, she turned him in, and he had to flee.
The second time was in the aftermath of the Legion war, where he pulled her out of prison to try and redeem her. She had anti-magic cuffs on to keep her from doing anything, and he was determined to bring her back. Instead she found a way to murder him and burned down the academy. Then she fled to Orgrimmar just as the Nightborne joined the Horde and used the influx of new Shal’dorei in the city to mask herself.
There’s a lot she did for the Legion that she isn’t proud of. But betraying her master was something she felt was personal and really burdens her. She hasn’t told anyone about this, even the two other characters I RP that Altielle trusts almost unconditionally. Almost, is a key word here, I suppose.

Most of Ju’s career before joining the Steelpaw consisted of duels to the death. In the very first of these she beat a Crane Monk to death with a wooden sword, ignoring any rituals that Monk was used to engaging in. In retrospect I imagine that was the slowest and most painful death she’s ever dealt to another person.

My warlock managed to have her ties to the Wrathgate incident blamed on her master, which resulted in his true death and her ascension in status.
My rogue/pirate works under the Bilgewater and has her own ship, and has dealt with a few NPCs in very…‘creative’ ways.

When Starfall Sentinels was still a thing in retail we had a short campaign in Suramar. In it several of the cadre, including Astrea, were found captured and tortured during our infiltration of the city. During our escape Astrea killed one of the guards by draining him of mana like a vampire.
Ooc it was one of my proudest moments.

Antirn ICly used to live at Camp Taurajo with his wife, thinking that there would not be much bad happening in the world following the Lich King’s fall. Then humans went mental from bad Blizzard writing and burned it down and killing his wife while he was helping in the jungle-ish part of the barrens.
Upon finding it out he left the Cenarion Circle for awhile and more or less actively hunted down and mauled humans and dwarves he caught on patrol. The topper for it was a young Kaldorei hunter proclaimed they would stop him and then set out to do so. It ended up playing out like that bear attack Scene from the Revenant, but if Leo lost… it was the first kill Antirn made that he officially felt remorse for, since he did not actually want to kill said hunter.
I’ve mentioned plenty times in other threads already but Sinothyr was a Lust Murderer in life. She also abducts people she finds exceptionally beautiful, dead or alive, and preserves them in ice as works of art.
Aside from those things she killed and cursed a childhood friend into a Banshee and stole her name, and recently orchestrated the death of that person’s mother to raise as a new Death Knight.

I read this and can’t keep the word ‘sith’ out of my head.

It’s got to be one of two things, I reckon.
Firstly, I’m thinking of the Scarlet Crusade. One thing Sarestha bitterly regrets is the relentless persecution of free-willed undead. She was told they were no different from the Scourge, and she believed it… until she became one herself. She’s never quite managed to forgive herself for the relentless persecution of those who are now her own kind. It’s part of why she’s so dedicated to serve the Forsaken in particular, despite having a somewhat different worldview and experience than many.
The second is the elephant in the room, Teldrassil. At the time, Sarestha was a fanatical Sylvanas loyalist. She trusted her Queen’s guidance, and truly believed that if Sylvanas wished for Teldrassil to be burned, there must have been good reason for it. She did everything she could to justify it in her own mind - but in her heart she knew it was wrong. The death and destruction brought upon those lands by the Horde reminded her too much of what the Scourge did to Lordaeron and Quel’thalas. Yet… it was on the orders of the very person who saw that the free-willed undead, who were really the victims of the Scourge, were not to blame for that. It was a huge point of conflict for her, and even prevented her from using the Light (an ability she retained, at great difficulty, due to her conviction). Eventually, she was convinced that it was wrong, and she bitterly regrets participating in the burning, and trying to justify it later. It’ll bug her for the rest of her unlife, I suspect.

I’m kind of a huge sith nerd, so…
Guilty 
Errol killed the woman he loved because his sleeper cell told him to. He then went on to attempt to murder them out of guilt.
ill do two because i have a massive ego
Sint is a war criminal. In her journey to defeat her enemies, she’s burned down several villages worth of people to pursue her goals. Let’s not forget how many times she’s mercilessly fought battles instead of seeking diplomacy.
Sion, my friendly Druid, once was tasked in helping the alliance stop a horde army from surging into Ashenvale. She hung those orcs from trees by using vines that hung down and turned into nooses. Pretty terrible stuff.
Well, there was this one time… at band camp?

Zhao once ate people. It was during Pilgrim’s Bounty and she was travelling through Duskwood when she was invited to partake in a feast by a mysterious local, A.K.A Sinothyr Skyfire. She didn’t find out until after the fact that she was fed the corpses of a trade caravan that had been waylaid nearby.
Strangely she doesn’t feel bad about it and admits to enjoying the meal even after figuring out the truth.

This is one of many highlights from an RP storyline that took place over several months the other year.
Tamani hired a crew to exhume a guy’s corpse without the knowledge of his ex-fiance. When the ex-fiance stumbled upon them mid-grave defiling, flowers in hand, and tried to stop them, Tamani had her accosted/detained.
In Tam’s defense, she was under the impression that the guy had secretly been in love with her in life, but had fallen under the influence of this jealous Forsaken witch- who plotted to kill him, take all his money/property in the will, and resurrect him as an undead zombie!

During Xiano’s Novice day’s his master Yazimo would frequently send him out to kill Draenei in Nagrand. Yazimo blamed the Draenei for the Red Pox. So Xiano as a young novice would go out and collect Draenei heads, often from their guards but also civilians and families.
Later Xia realized how messed up it was, especially as he came to learn more about the conflict between the Orcs and Draenei. But back then he never dared to question his Master.

My character killed several members of the his fellow horde to cover his tracks. Sometimes even for failure.
In actual roleplay, Ursuola once got a guildmate killed during a suicide-by-Iron Horde attempt.
As far as like, the whole of her character goes, probably that bit in WoD where the guy at the Gladiator’s Sanctum asks you to go rip out the still-beating heart of a pandaren so you can kill 500 of them for a title. I stopped acknowledging that because it got a little bit silly, though.

It’s a tie.
On the level where she didn’t choose it, Fina regrets the horrors visited upon the Scarlet Enclave, and makes a yearly pilgrimage to pay her respects to those that she had an unwilling hand in slaughtering. While she isn’t very fond of the Crusade, she dislikes being used to go after even the vulnerable.
On a level where she did? She killed her father. It was necessary - he was Sha-possessed - but she has not stopped regretting it once in the years since.

My Daeth Knight Saehri,
When she witnessed her daughters death on Draenor it drove her mad. She began hunting down Orcs, men, women, children, it didn’t matter.
This didn’t stop when she came to Azeroth, in fact it increased. It culminated in her murdering her Cousin as a show of faith as a willing conscript into the Scourge.
