Who are we?
In-Character
The Thalassian Legion (known as the Fourth Thalassian Legion or simply the Fourth Legion), is, as the name may suggest, a military unit loyal and in service to the Kingdom of Quel’Thalas.
It was first established approximately twenty years ago following the Scourging of Quel’thalas during the Third War, founded by surviving soldiers of Arthas Menethil’s genocide. Despite the grim reality their people faced, they banded together ranks of many branches to provide safety to their fellow survivors, and perhaps inspire hope in their despairing kin again, while Kael’thas Sunstrider sought salvation for their people.
Since then, the Thalassian Legion has continued to stand strong as one of the various military battalions in Quel’thalas’ defensive arsenal, guided by principles of camaraderie, dedication, and loyalty.
“There are no expendables here.”
The current iteration of the Thalassian Legion is the fourth, hence the Fourth Thalassian Legion or the Fourth Legion, and is led by a triumvrate of High Commanders: Oracle-General Rana Voidmoon, Knight-Commander Vandonna Voidmoon, and Head Magistrix Anara Duskstrider. All sworn to the cause which has long been the battalion’s foremost purpose: to protect the land and citizens of the Kingdom of Quel’Thalas from all external threats.
In accordance with the now-former Prince Sunstrider’s final decision before his departure, the Thalassian Legion adheres to the authority of the Regent Lord, Lor’themar Theron. However, since the title’s establishment centuries ago, the Ranger-General has been and continues to be the highest military authority in Quel’Thalas, serving as the commander of all military forces and overseeing the defenses of Silvermoon. As such, like any military force in Quel’Thalas, the Fourth Thalassian Legion’s High Command also falls under to this individual’s command—currently Halduron Brightwing—and the Ranger-General alone possesses the final authority in any and all major deployments of armed, naval, or aerial forces.
Out of Character
<The Thalassian Legion> is—
- 18+ only — Minors are not welcome in our ranks, IC or OOC.
- North American-focused — Members from other countries who play on NA realms are welcome, but keep in mind that your time difference may make attendance and finding RP difficult.
- Based in Wyrmrest Accord — Players/characters from other RP realms, such as Moon Guard and Emerald Dream, are welcome.
- Thalassian-centric — Characters of other races are welcome (excluded races listed below), but out storytelling is focused around Quel’Thalas and Thalassians (Sin’dorei, Shal’dorei, Quel’dorei, Ren’dorei, San’layn, and Darkfallen) above all.
- A Military Guild — We are what you might call “military lite”, but we are still a military guild, so our roleplay includes but is not limited to uniforms, a rigid command structure, minimal political roleplay, and a considerable amount of combat.
Races disallowed from joining <The Thalassian Legion> are:
- Humans
- Dwarves
- Gnomes
- Human Worgen (Kaldorei Worgen, for example, are welcome)
Other important things to know about <The Thalassian Legion> before you look to join include:
- Every Tuesday is our weekly IC assembly for new character introductions, (once a month) promotions, and in-character announcements.
- Every other Saturday is our bi-weekly casual, social RP night known as “the Mixer”, where we oftentimes host other guilds we are ICly allied with as guest.
- Wednesdays and Sundays are our OOC raid nights.
- Thursdays, Fridays, and non-Mixer Saturdays are usually when IC missions occur, if any that week.
If any of this isn’t of interest or preferable to you, then we may not be the right guild for you.
However, if it is, then you’re right at home.
A military guild though we are, we ensure there is time for personal roleplay, as well. Being here should never mean you and your character are just a cog in a machine. If you have a story to tell, our Officer Core (or O-Core) will do their best to assist you in telling it, so long as we’re informed that you desire as much. We have an incredible community here, many of which are also active for roleplay outside of the week-to-week events. Furthermore, in joining, your character will get to choose between one of the Thalassian Legion’s three divisions, where you will be able to connect them to people of similar skillsets and build bonds.
