Questions on Gen2:
Will making outland chars like sunfury, Netherwing and Ethereals doable? Even with their higher powerlevel than a lvl 20?
Can we go thrugh the patches? I have a desire to go Felblood or Amani.
Can Felblood be reversed? It has happen with Grom. Should be doable, dontcha think?
Is the cake a lie?
Will ge go thrugh the
stargate
portal
Will ge do PvE?
Then you need to take the time to set up the world. The more 'generic' the time period the setting is, the more footwork
you
need to do to make it plausible.
Especially
if you don't have leeway to just go off the rails completely because the time period is structured in canon.
What does thou mean? I art confussed.

Basically, if you have a time period nobody knows about, you need to detail it. You need to explain where everybody's at: what are the human kingdoms like? what's up with elven politics? what about technology? If you want people to RP in a world they don't know, you need to give them something to work with. Telling people 'Let's RP fifty years in the past!' and then not give them anything to work with means everyone will derp around for a couple of minutes and then the RP will suddenly internally combust.
Now I see. And it sounds simpler too :D

You can.
We'll see how things develop.
They tend to turn into wretched.
Yes.
That is the idea.
Rp's tend to do that.

Nice, the sticky request for Stab's thread went through.

I meant. A blood elf takes demon blood and turns into a Felblood. Then magic rite and felblood turns to green eyed elf.
Like Grom took Manoroths blood and became a fel orc. Then Jaina (and others) cleansed him back into a green skined orc. Then Grom stod in the fire.
This rite seemingly doesn't purge 100% of the fel. Thus the green eyes/skin.

We saw that in BC though, for the daily quest in the Throne of KJ; you drain off the Felblood power and they turned into Wretched.

Fly on up there and watch heh. And the main difference is that Grom and his Warsong only took the Blood again; the Felblood are draining the Fel energy directly from either Legion members, or corrupted sources of Legion energy(such as the Crystals for the Felblood General in MGT).

Since everybody is making characters in the swamp, can someone make one outside of Stormwind?

Outside of Stormwind as in Elwynn Forest or anywhere? Tempted to throw in some characters in the Blasted Lands, but my post times are weird atm and I'll need to talk to Money about what I have in mind first.

Like just outside of Stormwind before you get to Goldshire

Okay Stab. First of all, Drag'Then is not among the attackers. If he was, I would have mentioned it.
Second, I think you may have missed the idea behind Genesis since you keep introducing incredibly powerful demons into the fray. The idea is that you don't have to make immensely powerful characters in order to do things. Really. Stop that. This is partly why
Wanted!
died.
Third, the Stonard attack is over. It was spillover from the Dark Portal, not an invasion force. The battle was to throw some people together, not consume the RP. That was the point of my posts mentioning that the attack was dying out, the demons were retreating, and that it was clean up time. It was not an invitation for a sudden second army to show up and start wrecking the place. That's called hijacking the plot, something we've talked about before, and really doesn't make you any friends.
You see, the thing about play by post RP's is that the majority of events don't happen in the middle of combat. It happens between, with people talking, arguing, planning, and sometimes fighting. If you want to engage in your plot, you have to hook people in with hints, or characters, or something like that. Get them interested and wanting to follow this trail, kill that villain, find that treasure. What you are doing here is shoving your plot into the players faces, forcing them to look at it and deal with it. It gets old, and when your demons are vastly more powerful than anyone else and you keep forcing fight scenes, no one is going to have fun except for you.
Stop flinging mobs at the characters.
