Our characters

[Spikeydeath]

Are our characters like the elite forces of our nations?
also are our characters honored?

I don't think lorewise we exists at all.

i agree and i dont, i think we exist just not to the extent of how many different and amazing things we do and accomplish ingame

I think of us as "Elites" because 5 of us are able to kill an entire dungeon. We can kill dozens of city guards (common soldiers).

Our actions take effect in Lore. We killed Kael'Thas and he was pissed at us later on because we killed him for example.

But our actions in Lore is easily Retconned, for example, we killed Onyxia, but it was Retconned and Varian killed Onyxia.

But I always feel we are not really apart of Alliance or the Horde, and we feel more on the lines of Mercenary's for hire.

Think of it like WC3. The main guy is there backed up by random armies.
Tirion, That hunter chick with the ring blade, Im sure Alexstraza will be there to kill Neltharion.
We exist, but are not important to lore. The man is keeping us down.

I have lost count of the amout of times Blizz has stated our rank is
Rising Adventurer

Players in warcraft lore have been referred to as "adventurers" just wandering around killing random crap and giant bosses for the important lore characters. We're there, we just don't matter as much.

Go kill the lich king. The RP at 10% should answer your question.

Adventurers are the uncommon awesome. Sure in Org it seems like hundreds of us running around, but in most rpg situations its not really that abundant. With the exception of dungeons, raids and group quests your char is the only one who has done all of those quests and noone else. The group stuff is a collection of random adventurers who banded together.

Our characters are, as they are wont to say themselves, "a random group of adventurers". -.-

I really wish they'd make player characters more heroic... kinds sucks feeling insignificant when you're kicking the Lich King's ass.

Guild Wars had ingame cinematics where the characters actually talked at the end of each mission.
Blizzard now has a little experience with ingame cutscenes. It would be awesome if they could do at least one ingame cinematic, ie. after defeating Deathwing where our characters are shown to be the heroes, actually talking and stuff. One voice per race/voice would be enough, couple sentences, nothing major. Just our character shown to be present in a major Lore event, with other important Lore characters, interacting etc.

Just wrote that in the "Who killed the LK"..

We are Adventurers, strong and honorable even at Ragnaros times.

Yeah but, you know, you can't add in names...

"Rokghar killed Deatwhing, but only on the server Tichoundrius, while the brave Qemist and his <Slaughter> guild killed Deathwing on Stormreaver"...lorewise this is obviously impossible, we still need to be unknown for lore purposes..

Iirc we have a Statue in the middle of Dalaran for killing Arthas?
