A Jacob to the rescue
Shots fire! More shots fire! Jacob Holt stands between the innocent civilians and eternal damnation. Civilians who fear for their lives against the massive horde of blood thirsty Worgen. Weeks ago they came, ravaging the lands, attacking and turning civilians into one of their own. Worgen who cannot revert back to human form. Like a plague they swept through the lands until they made it to Orchid Hill in Duskwood. Fearing Natheren's forces would come and purge the land, killing off everyone, Jacob halted their march and raced back to save as many as he could. "Tranq shots my Lord? You don't want them dead?!" "No. I don't. I have a plan, but first we need to get you folks out of here!" "You came alone?! We need an army!!" "I brought one..." Despite what many may think of the somewhat psychotic Holt, Jacob is not only a highly skilled marksman and tracker, but a beast master as well. His entire stable of companions joined him this night to help save as many as they can. Deth'tilac. His giant blue smoldering spider of fire begins to web as many as it can. Meanwhile, Rattlebore; a black Jormungar found in a cave up in Northend, digs a tunnel behind the group to aid in escape. "Follow Rattlebore! He'll lead you guys to safety!" "What about you my Lord?!" "I'll be fine. Sides, this is one HELL of a party! Now go!!" The people race through the tunnels while Jacob tosses a bomb, sealing the entrance. "That should do it. I told Nate there would be survivors." Turning, he notices more racing towards him. Letting off a sharp whistle 'Tooth',his pet Devilsaur, enters the fight swiping his tail to give Jacob enough time to escape. "You know, I deserve a medal for this!" Leaping up on to a rooftop, he begins to tinker with a device connected with many others on various rooftops and light posts. A spirit beast bear named 'Articus' joins Jacob with a inquiring expression on its face. "No. We're not going to kill them. These are our townsfolk. Just a little... Sick, at the moment. I have to do my part so the Kaldorei can do theirs. Given they hold up their end of the bargain. I know they aren't here yet. This will not only make their job easy but buy us some time." More Worgen race towards Jacob as he begins to fire more tranquilizing darts toward them. His spirit crab races passed him seeking safety. "Ghostcrawler you worthless piece of shit! You're fired!!" The rest of his stable join the fight. Each beast was tending to their own group of Worgen. Nodding to his spirit wolf, he watches as it lets out a howl signaling the others to escape as Jacob lights the fuse. An explosion occurs letting out a potent gas. As each Worgen breathes it in, they fall asleep one by one. The sleeping agent was working. This was what Jacob meant by buying time. "BOOYAH!! We did it!!" Jacob watches, however, as one escapes. He considers chasing him but decides against it as his goal was helping those below. He leaps down with gas mask on, injured but proud of his work. Moments later... Kaldorei forces arrive and begin taking the Worgen away into a portal of their own lands. "These Worgen we can aid but I'm afraid the ones lingering in the deep dark forest we cannot. There is no hope for them." One female Kaldorei tells Jacob. "Yeah well, least I got as many as I could." "Care to explain your actions Baron?" Natharen and his forces had arrived. Not looking pleased he folds his arms across his Adonis-like frame and eyes his cousin with eyes as red as fire. "I went to the elves. They are here lending their aid. These people could be able to tame the beast within Nate and should be given a chance too. The uninfected innocents are safe." "These dogs need to be put down. Not saved." "And who made you judge, jury, and executioner? You're not well Nate. You haven't fully recovered yet. You need Rodther's help. If you want to kill off beasts we still have Worgen to the east and north to tend with." Natharen paused for a while before signaling his men to aid the Kaldorei. Walking passed Jacob, he makes his way towards the manor. "I'll be in my room." "This isn't over, Nate. We still don't know what caused this or who. We need to investigate." Natharen simply nodded and continued forward. For the moment, Orchid Hill is safe. There was still something looming in the darkness. The Worgen regather. Jacob knows that if not confronted... They will return...

It’s only a dream. Or is it?
Allison jerked awake, dazed and confused eyes blinking rapidly as she swore she heard the sound of warfare coming from outside. In her feverish state she almost dismissed it as a hallucination. Her face twisted in pain as she dragged herself to her feet and stumbled toward the tiny barred window she could barely reach to peek out of.
It was difficult to focus. Her eyes burned from the heavy smoke filling the air making it difficult to see. Clinging to the reinforced bars, she dipped her head to cough grievously. It took some effort to catch her breath, mouth pressing against her trembling arm as she did her best to summon up some measure of strength. The lack of food had taken its toll on her. Had it not been for the rain and the constant stream of water from outside coming down the wall, she surely would have been dead by now.
Another single cough is given before her tired gaze lifts only to startle, a raspy little scream escaping her lips. There, in the window was a Worgen! She let got of it and fell back onto the floor scooting back against the far war.
“ Whoa! No no! Allison, it’s me! Jacob! I’m here to rescue you!”
She didn’t react. She couldn’t react! That fragile frame tightened into a small ball, shrinking away from the gravelly tone of the Worgen. It wasn’t real, that voice. Her mind had finally succumbed to the fever and starvation. Or so she’d convinced herself.
“ Alli, Hey! Alli! Come on, don’t give up now. Nate will kill me if I don’t get you back.” Jacob normally would have resorted to teasing the woman and making some sort of sexual comment but looking at her in that condition? Not even he could lower himself to that.
“ That’s it. We’re getting you out of here. Don’t look. Don’t move!”
Immediately after, she heard the sound of the bars groaning in protest swiftly followed by the sound of rock screaming at the ‘window’ was yanked free of its cage.
The next sound that she heard was the sound of her own screams.
Then there was nothing.
The Next Day.
She could hear voices though they sounded as if she were submerged beneath the water, garbled and far away.
“ How is she?”
“ She’ll live, my lord. Had she been there another day, possibly two…”
“ Will there be any lasting damage?”
“ It is too soon to tell, my lord.”
Allison struggled, fighting to gain control of her body to call out to her beloved. Try as she might, nothing escaped. Perhaps it was the fact that they had plied her with to force her to rest.
“ Do whatever it takes to get her back to herself again. Do you hear me?”
“ Loud and clear, my lord.”
“ Good. Now how is Jacob?”
Jacob? Had it not been a dream? What was wrong with Jacob?
The physician turned slightly to point at the empty bed,” He is up and about already. The burn was minor, my lord.”
“ And the others?”
“ We’ve examined them all, thoroughly, my lord. Only one had a bite. A young girl. We have segregated her as you commanded.”
The drugs were proving too strong. A final attempt was made to reach out for Nate, but nothing happened. Her head was saturated with the need to sleep so sleep is what she did once more. As fortune would have it, she did not hear what transpired next.
“ I commanded that any bitten were to be put down.”
“ But, my lord,” the physician stammered,” She is only a child.”
“ Not anymore. I’ll see to it myself.”
A sudden halt and second thoughts
The air is so cold yet the trees are on fire. I smile up at the inferno above my head. Scarlet and gold licks at the blue sky, no rain clouds today. The chill in the post-dawn air is the first hint that winter isn't far behind. Then these trees will stand naked, bereft of their color. But for now they line the avenue and my walk is more vibrant than any carnival parade. I am torn between keeping my eyes high to watch for the falling leaves dancing their way to the carpeted ground, or looking down to spy the crunchy ones. I love to step on them, I guess I'm still a kid at heart. Given half a chance I still jump in puddles too, just not when my friends or family are looking. Alas, this march is not an easy one. A small army accompanies me towards my homeland. Worgen have overran Orchid Hill and took over my estate. The curse spread quickly amongst the citizens. Even I fell victim. Had not been the efforts of the elves, I would have remained a mindless beast. These Worgen are unlike the others. Cruel mindless beast that need to be dealt with. They do not change back to human form and they rip and bite anything in their way. With no choice left we march to purge the land of these foul beast. My heart is sadden knowing there could be those uninfected. Alas, I cannot afford the risk. "Whoah! STOP!!" Jacob. My cousin and Baron within my order. Leaping from the trees in front of us like some mad man. It didn't sit well the idea but this must be done. "Are you crazy?!! Nate, there could be people there, boarded up still uninfected!! We have to save our people not annihilate them!" Soft hearted. There's no room for such choices in matters of safety. "Go back to the capital Jacob. This needs to be done. We already saved what we could and you saved Alison. The rest is up to me now." Before I can motion for the Soldiers to muster on, Jacob had a surprise waiting. Explosions occur and trees fall blocking the path. "You dare?!" I shouted in anger towards him. "Oh I do Nate. This will buy me enough time to save as many as I can! Look, you're still not well! You're not thinking this through!" "Challenging your Lord like this?! This will NOT go unpunished! How many more lives will we let these mongrels ruin?!!" "I won't let them or you ruin your's!! I'll need some time!" Then he disappeared. It's going to take hours to clear the debris let along find another route. Perhaps Jacob is right. Perhaps I am not well and I'm making a mistake. Am I?

Adhelin’s reaction to finding out her brother Natharen has been bitten by a Feral Worgen.
This is false. I was present and there was a lot less cleavage being shown by Adhelin.
^Why I love this guy.)

RP Shame Blog Warning
For those that aren’t following the limited number of people who have reblogbed the post, there’s another obnoxious RP shame blog rolling around on tumblr - ironic, consider the owner of the tumblr admonishes RPers who have a tumblr. Do yourself a favor and block badrpersofwyrmrestus to eradicate them from your blogging experience.
This is pathetic. People need to get a life instead of trying to make other people's lives miserable.

I was very bless to have found you. You are an incredible writer and an excellent friend. I look forward to our stories that we are riding together on Horde side. Could have not found a better role play partner
WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING TO MY FEELINGS RIGHT NOW?
But seriously. You are honestly such a breath of fresh air to be around. Constantly making us laugh, constantly coming up with new ideas to torture our characters. I went from barely knowing you to having characters being your characters’ sister and wife (twice over lol) and every day it’s like “WHAT is the man going to come up with today?”
So THANK YOU for your ideas, for being an amazing friend and helping us develop all these great characters. Even just hanging out with you in Skype and listening to Ahsara threaten to pound your face in, I always have the best time with you guys. When you’re not trying to drown me.
^.^
What is cool in character and out of character
Many of us have fallen victim to this. If you know you’re about to make a post that could offend the Mun or make them upset than simply put, don’t do it! You come off as a douche bag. No one pays money to log in game to deal with drama and no one develops a profile here to read about drama or be attacked in any facet or form.
Most of all, no one likes their intelligence to be played so if you post something "in character" knowing that it will offend the other person you’re basically being a douche bag. You’re hiding behind the IC/OOC rule knowing full well your actions and you will be recognized for it by many. At least take time out to speak with the other person before posting so that both parties have a clear understanding that it is in character and in no way shape or form out of character.
-Eats all the food in the house- You should really stock more.
You die now...

Letter to Lord Holt
Lord Holt-
I am writing to inform you, as my sister has been overly stressed and has not found the time to send you word, Our mother’s health is rapidly declining, and she will not be able to perform her duties as Lay in waiting at this time, due to her continued need to care for her. We the family apologise for the lack of notice, it was wished to remain private until now. As soon as she is able she will be back to tend to your house’s needs.
We are all working to make sure this life transition to go as smoothly as possible. Our uncle wished me to inform you, his duties are still being carried out, as the distraction is very much needed for him right now, and asked if there was any additional, to please let him know.
I also write as the friend I once was, as well as being Kiarah’s brother. Leave the suitor’s to me, if you must still seek them. Considering my uncles choice in the last, that only sought to harm her, and the family, it has been taken up by me to chose from now on, whether he likes it or not. Drinks, on me, when you have a moment free. Celebration is in order for you, even in this time of sorrow and mourning.
Mother nature keep you - Dagin Leigh
Dear Dagin,
My heart goes out to you and yours during this trouble time. Inform your sister her duties to myself and my Lady can wait. Family comes first. Keep me abreast on the situation and if there is anything I can do, don’t hesitate to ask.
In terms of suitors I believe a brother should have a say. I envy you. I don’t have such luxury. My opinions at times seem to be never considered these days. None the less, I will honor your wishes of course.
As to your uncle I wish to meet with him and all the Barons to discuss plans and operations for Duskwood. I extend this invitation to you as well.
Again, from both Alison and I we do wish your mother speedy recovery. Should the worse occur, you’ll find us at your corner my friend.
Sincerely,
Lord Natharen Alexander Holt But to you, simply “Nate”
