* The character you wish to join on: name, race, class, level, is it a main or alt character
Ilyswen, night elf druid, currently lvl 27 but leveling quickly. Main character.
* Your character's public RP profile
Ilyswen is a young female elf of roughly 400 years old, she keeps her long hair loose about her shoulders, usually untidy and stuck with twigs or leaves from the trees she has been climbing. Since becoming a Druid, from being a Scout, in the past 100 years she has become more distant from her family and wanders the woods alone to study the animals and trees. Ilyswen is curious about everything around her and is easily distracted if something else crosses her path that appears to be more interesting. Not yet being a fully fledged and studied Druid she is considered by her elders to be more of a child/youth. She is keen to learn and understand all the races around her, she tries to understand them, although keeps to much of the traditional Nightelf attitudes of others she is perhaps more understanding than her elders.
* Your RP experience (none, old tabletop/larp player, veteran of another guild - a few words is enough)
Over ten years of RP on various games from Ultima Online, SWTOR and Lord of the Rings Online. I've rp'd Elves, Drow, Dunedain rangers and various other characters.
* Why you want to join the Guardians?
I wanted to find a guild suitable for my druid that was not a large guild and had a variety of roleplay situations, I found the guild listed on the forums and looked at the Archives page to see what kind of things the guild gets up to. I accidently came upon the guild whilst doing a quest and sat listening for a time to the RP going on to see if it was the kind I would enjoy.
* When do you usually play?
When not studying/working I play during the day/evening/weekends. When studying this reduces to just evenings/weekends.
* What makes RP fun for you?
I don't enjoy raiding and I don't like PVP so for me RP or questing is the main reason I play a game. I enjoy creating characters and interacting with others in various roles/situations. I like questing in RP, sitting around campfires and telling stories. I like intrigue if playing a spy character and healing, nature learning if playing that kind of character.
* What makes RP NOT fun for you?
Over dramatising, people spotlighting their character, high fantasy - glowing hands or anything that's half deamon/elf/vampire. Infighting and bickering.
* Answer as your character - write a brief piece, like you would an emote, of your character doing something common to them. A daily routine, a little personal ritual, something of that sort.
Ilyswen climbs the tree and looks down on those around her, listening to their conversations. She rests her cheek against the bark of the tree and listens to sounds of nature. After a time she ignores those below and traces the bark with her fingertips, stopping when she comes across an insect, she tilts her head and watches the insect crawling. In the distance she hears a bird and looks to it's direction.
* Answer as your character - Why do you want to join the Guardians? ('To defend the Balance,' is a given, why did they chose to do it with the Guardians rather than anybody else?)
Having approached the Cenarion Circle they seemed not to be too keen on a female druid, despite my knowledge of the woods and tracks.. it seemed that whatever I did was not good enough, perhaps I was too outspoken, maybe.. I don't know but they wanted to just sit and talk and, I wanted to still be out there, doing things, doing anything to save our beloved lands from what was happening to them. I think or hope the Guardians will allow me to do that and not just sit and discuss if I should probably just stay as a Scout instead.
