GUILD~ Tainted Rangers

(since the site does not have a guild recruiting forum i shall put it here for now... all ready have talked to Szethius about this)

now for what you need to know about the guild/requirements: ill go over rules and facts about the guild before i tell about the guilds history.

MUST be HORDE
must be willing to be partially evil(tainted)-
YOU must NEVER give away any guild information, such as our guild house location, meetings, events, targets, or information about other guild members. if you do its simple: you will be banished, scorned, and lose your rank among one of the oldest and most powerful clan of assassins Silvermoon has ever known. YOUR name will become lost among the commoners.
You must show up to one event/guild meeting a week
you are allowed to join another guild/ wear that guild name/tabard it is in fact incouraged since we are a clan of assassins we need to be everywhere. you cannot recruit people from these guild though
YOU MUST be willing to have FUN!

Rules about guild RP:
stay in character whenever the guild is together/when talking to another guild member, you dont have to remain in character when whispering across the world or you can not see a fellow guild member.

Rules about GUILD BANK : it will be open to everyone newcomers once guild is in full motion will have limited access and have to prove themselves to gain items(i will talk to Szethius or other of the GM's about making some kool custom gear for our guild bank when we have group events /quests) you can take what you need do not be greedy, and you must put in 100g a week(its not alot at all people)

Other cool information about the guild:

awesome guild tabard (at least i think it is )- the guild tabard is the sign you are in the guild, we will not have the guild names under our names(because remember we are a secretive group) i have asked the Szethius if he can create a hearthing stone just for guild members to hearth to our meeting place (another sign you are in the guild)

Requiem's famous BOB the Builder, is creating a very nice guild house/area for our clan information as to why the guild house is located where it is can be found in the guild history section i will post next

Guild rankings: i will devise what i think will be a good working rank system including how to rank up

Guild HEAD positions:

i need one member of each horde race- (it is not first come first server..well it is if i deem you worthy ( you must tell me your characters story and give me three reasons why you should lead your race of assassins.)

you will also need to have your gear customized and your weapons customized so that you stand out, and look like a leader. talk to Szethius or any GM on how to do this)

YOUR JOBS ARE AS FOLLOWS

You will be in charge of future guild members of your race. (this includes the Death knights.)

You will also be in charge or recruiting, but all recruits MUST be okay'd by ME (Dritz) there will be a competition on which race recruits the most for the first month every week. winning race gets prizes.

You will decide among your race who your team leaders are you need four( this number is only while the guild has few people as we gain more well add more team leaders.

As to the power of ranking up members of your race we all will decide what recruits can do to prove themselves worthy. i have ideas(as i stated earlier) but will listen to yours.

this is alot of information to digest so i will stop for now you will all get briefed when you join the guild by the leader of your faction on other important things. or me myself (Dritz)

AND NOW FOR THE GUILDS STORY>>>(give me 20 mins to type it...)it will be here i promise!!!

The city of Silvermoon was founded by the high elves to be their capital after their arrival in Lordaeron thousands of years ago. as historians have stated the city was ruled by a group of high elves who were known as the Convocation of Silvermoon ( also known as the COuncil of silvermoon) what the people of Silvermoon did not know was that these high elves had prophesied the comming of a Dark knight(Arthas) and laying waste upon there city, they did not know who or when this was going to come about, or if there city would hold up against this immense dark power, but what they did know was that they could prepare and hope that what little they could do would be enough. of the many families that made up this council was non other than the windrunners. They had there most powerful wizards bend time itself and sent one simple message to the future, to one person in specific, Sylvanas Windrunner the ranger general of silver moon. the message was simple: Dark times ahead- Create elite force-keep them hidden.

now let us travel to the time of Sylvanas Windrunner.

Sylvanas was a member of the prominent Windrunner family of the high elves. Her siblings were Alleria, Vereesa, and at least two other brothers. Her family lived at Windrunner Spire in the tranquil forests of Quel'thalas. Sylvanas joined the rangers and eventually became their leader, rising to the rank of Ranger-General of Silvermoon, military leader of all high elven forces. (wow wikki)

upon reaching this ranking during the ceremony she was given the title, along with a parchment sealed with her name, that looked very old. upon completion of the ceremony she opened the parchment and read the message sent by her ancestors. Something stirred within her and she knew what the message meant so she set out and began her work. She trained a large ranger force everyone knew about, what they did not know was she trained a smaller group, a group she kept hidden, a group far more elite than the the rangers everyone knew about and thought were elite. This small group of warriors she trained in the darkest most deadliest ways, mostly in assassinations. they were bound by one of the darkest oaths and swore alligence to serve her, their city and to protect their city with there last breath. as time went by Sylvanas did not see much action yet the words of her ancestors kept her weary. Soon enough those words spoke true. Arthas showed up at Silvermoons Door step. Even with the enemy at their door Slyvanas keep her assassins a secrete, waiting for the right time to use them and use them in the wisest way. she though in all her wisdom picked the wrong time and way. she sent her most loyal lieutenant (also her secrete lover) Drathius (father of Dritz) to king Arthas's land to see what he could do there to cause some damage and find out.tats was what she told him, even though deep down she knew she wanted to see him safe,so she sent him away out of love. he left with half of the assasin force, to northrend. with the other half of her force she sent them away told them to hide even from her, and she would call them when she needed them the most. as the story goes she eventually was struck down by arthas and made a follower, through this time her elite forces always stayed by her side, hidden among the ranks of arthas, unknown to him and even Lady Sylvanas herself. what she and they did not know was that the oath bound them to serve who she served as long as the oders did not harm her. they died as she did, and became banshees with her, yet served only her.

time passed and eventually Ner'zhul (who had control over Sylvanas's mind) slowly lost it she was aware of this and began to plan a way to strike back an kill arthas, she also became aware of her hidden forces both those in Northrend and those among Arthas's ranks... and she began to plot......

The dreadlords planned on killing Arthas within the capital, but Sylvanas created a contingency plan in the case of Arthas' escape. She arranged for her banshees to feign allegiance and escort him to a place in the woods where she would be waiting for him.[6] After Arthas survived the dreadlords' ambush and escaped the capital, Sylvanas' loyal sisters saw him to the arranged place, and then killed his bodyguards.[7]

Sylvanas, hiding in the shadows, struck him with an arrow she had crafted — a venomous sting that would paralyse him. Arthas was furious at her betrayal, and demanded that she finish him. But Sylvanas refused to show him the mercy of a quick death and intended to make him suffer — as he had made her suffer in undeath. She was about to begin her grisly work when Kel'Thuzad arrived and intervened, killing her banshees and chasing her off.[7] (wowwikki)

those banshes were the remainder of her assasin orces in these lands....

however it was not the end of the Guild of Rangers(renamed after her transformation to the Tainted Rangers)

NOW WE GO TO NORTHREND

Drathius arrived in northrend. he and his assassins quickly scouted the kingdom of the lich king. they had been given orders and were there to carry them out. so they set out for ice crown. they never made it all the way there. on there long journey there Drathius was visited in a dream by his wife, in this dream she told him her sad tale and about her assassination attempt on arthas. she also told him something else. She was going to have their son. She ordered him to cancel there current order, but to remain in northrend and keep watch over Arthas and she would eventually go to see him and bring there son.

orders were orders, as much as it pained him to stay he was bound by the oath. what he at first did not understand was if the others had become banshees why had he and his loyal followers not aswell. he did not understand this but he did know, that even though they had not been transformed into banshees, they had become something else. there time in northrend, and the transformation of their leader had turned them into something else. something way darker then what they had been. they had the need to every now and then kill someone innocent, watch as they pathetically tried to fight, or plead for a swift death, yet they would draw it out,just like Arthas. Drathius knew this, could feel this, and knew they were no longer worthy to defend something as honorable and pure as Silvermoon so he waited for Sylvanas to come and tell her this.
The day came. and with it his son Dritz.(but his is another story..im far to tired to tell it now)

Drathius told his wife of there trasformation and she was deeply saddened and angered over what had happened to her loyal people and two her husband so she renamed there guild and gave them a new set of orders that in time they would strike a blow against arthas, they would still have to follow her orders but in time would have to follow her son, because he too was her blood.
They became the Tainted Rangers. They still were bound by oath to server and protect, but every now and then they got the urge to kill innocent people, people that could even be of there own race, it did not matter. this was there taint. Sylvanas hoped though that one day this could be cured....

In death, Sylvanas still considers herself one of the foremost protectors of Quel'Thalas, and repeatedly offered assistance in the form of supplies and troops to the blood elves. This may be due in some part to the fact that the Dark Lady still grieves over her failure to protect Quel'thalas from the Scourge invasion during the Third War, when she fell in battle. Though the blood elves initially declined most of Sylvanas' offers, fearing a trick, the beleaguered elves eventually allowed Sylvanas to station Forsaken soldiers in their lands, most prominently in the village of Tranquillien. Sylvanas played a large part in convincing Thrall to accept the blood elves into the Horde.

Interestingly, reports say Sylvanas moves to and from Northrend; it’s unknown if she is scouting for a possible attack on the Lich King, or if she has darker plans. There are rumors that Lady Sylvanas Windrunner is setting up a Forsaken city up there somewhere. In any case, she remains an enigmatic figure — her motivations unknown even to her most trusted advisers.[11](wow wikki).................

~Tainted Rangers: Strike hard Strike fast Remain unseen

Trogil served the horde, he served his war chief, and he served those his war chief told him to server. Of course this was fine until he was felled in battle against the scourge. Seeing his potential, necromancers raised him to be a death knight, and he was bound to the lich kings domination. During the battle at Light's Hope, Trogil was in Northrend, fighting invading Forces from the Alliance, and his old allegiances in the Horde. The necromancers moved him around many locations, and once he was on a scouting mission in the tundra. While he walked his path, a lone figure hid behind shadows and watched. When he neared his location, the figure jumped down and struck him fatally again. None other than the Banshee queen had killed him, but she also saw potential. So she raised him in the name of the Forsaken, filled him in on all the details he might have missed, and sent him to aid her son. He was welcomed as the first Orc in the rangers.
