Hunched over in the dim light a small figure wrote onto a dark parchment. Upon closer examination the figure is that of a female elf. Her name is Oneille Frosthawk. She is quietly dictating the current events as of late, since the opening of Icecrown Citadel and it's gates. Head tilted to the side her memory reels back to the scenes of the earlier day. Several bones guards went rushing towards her and her colleagues. In a haze of yellowed bone, fire magic, and battle cries the group of five sallied forth into the darkened womb that is Icecrown. nnMany brave souls currently fight on their own accord but...what is their reason...what brought them there?nn--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------nnI propose a contest (details are still being fleshed out)! I am eager to hear of the tales of those who've ventured into ICC as of late...you cannot simply walk into this place of cold, decay, and ebony seduction without some reason (and please epics aside I know you've reason!). With ICC content here and now most of the tribe has gone into the heroics searching for better gear. This is all and well but now you've done it! You've incurred my creative streak! Here we go!nn*Proposing for the contest is to document your adventures into either a five man dunegon or the raids. Screenshot yourself, your group, your whatever and spin us a tale.nn*Encouraging our guild to treat the new content as less of a grind and more of a artist's pallet. It's easy to forget that we are an RP guild so take time out and just RP!nn*No deadline as of late. Take your time and just let the energy flow.nnI know this is thrown out there but just enjoy what we're planning!
kidding!nnStorytelling is a most time honored tradition among clans, tribes, cultures, and peoples. The oral tradition is the vocal record of history, knowledge, and documentation long before pulp was turned to paper. That is why pening the story with visuals adds to what oral story telling cannot give.nnAn idea for our tribe is to tell the adventures you've gained. Stories define and shine light upon circumstances we've may not seen before in a character's life. In the novellas you write for the so-called "contest" you're exacting a written biography or memoir. Even if you're gunshy and would rather not participate you're more than welcome to submit stories through PM or email. nnNot everyone feels comfortable telling or writing a story but try. If you need help with editing, let us know. Happy to help!nn-Oneille Frosthawk
