USEFUL/INTERESTING RP ARTICLES

The title is a little misleading but this is basically a couple of links to articles and blogs which I discovered and which have been useful when considering Forsaken RP, I encourage you to take a look and let me know what you think!

http://theshatareu.wikia.com/wiki/The_Spine - all you need to know to about us, take a look!

http://wow.joystiq.com/2011/07/03/all-the-worlds-a-stage-plot-points-for-forsaken-roleplayers/
This was a recent article looking at the current situation of the Forsaken post-Catalog, well worth a look!

This is somewhat less useful, because it"s more of an introduction to Forsaken RP, but nonetheless it's a useful summary of the basic elements of our RP!

An excellent and very detailed article which includes a solid account of pre-Cata Forsaken history. It's now just a little outdated, since Cata has shaken things up a bit.

An informative introductory guide which is a good starting point for considering your character, although the writer is sometimes a little prescriptive.

And finally THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE, I really urge EVERYONE to take a look at this - you will NOT be disappointed and it will make you consider new approaches to your RP:

You made of heard of this before, but it's a journalistic account of one Undead's journey through Azeroth and Outland (pre-Cata). Now, the entire thing is of interest because it's fantastically well written and it's from the point of view of a Forsaken explorer, but - in particular - take a look at the following, if you're short for time:
http://destron.blogspot.com/2007/10/undercity.html - brings our capital to life in the most brilliant way.
http://destron.blogspot.com/2007/10/silverpine-forest.html - creates a powerful atmosphere for Silverpine and includes some interesting ideas about pre-Forsaken society in Lordaeron.
http://destron.blogspot.com/2007/10/tirisfal-glades_02.html - a compelling exploration of what it is to be Undead and what Forsaken society might be like to live in.

Please do take a look at those last few in particular and let me know what you think!

I say these links should be included in our Application Guide.

I second that.

I think that's a pretty sweet idea, but I'll leave it to Geri to put them up in a new thread on the recruitment section. I cannot stress enough how useful the 'Travels' blog is and it's also very entertaining (had anyone heard of it before, because I only just discovered it!) I've also added what is arguably the most important link of all: http://theshatareu.wikia.com/wiki/The_Spine, my own 'guide' to our lovely Guild.
