Oooooh. Faancy.

The Arrival (Part 1)
<The following takes place around the start of Patch 7.1>
Gadgetzan. The local goblin cartel refers to the city as the great jewel of Tanaris. That’s likely due to the fact that the rest of Tanaris was a literal hellhole inhabited by numerous beasties with a penchant for eating their victims alive. A few years ago, the city was nothing but a barren trading post in the middle of nowhere. After the cataclysm happened, many suffered from the destruction, but those living in Gadgetzan had actually benefited from the second sundering brought about by Deathwing. The calamitous had brought the sea right to Gadgetzan’s doorstep, transforming it into a successful port city, overthrowing the likes of Ratchet to the north.
The Ebon Rose had come to the goblin city for two major reasons. The first and most important reason in her opinion was boredom. She had been stationed in Dalaran, her former home, and was gathering intelligence and distributing contraband supplies to the Uncrowned, a secret organisation of rogues, hiding out in the Underbelly. When she learned of the groups' existence in whispers, she quickly volunteered for the mission.
Unfortunately, she had been disappointed by the secret order. In her opinion, it was too much politics and not enough stabbing. The Underbelly had given her some enjoyment during her time there, but she had loathed the smell of the sewers and the company of the mages that did not particularly trust blood elves these days. She learned from a cartel rogue that Gadgetzan was home to several powerful crime families and that the city was plagued by crime. Violence and intrigue? The Ebon Rose knew it was right up her alley.
The second reason was much simpler. The Eclipse Syndicate, the group that the Ebon Rose was a part of, required eyes and ears in the city. With her interest in the city piqued by what she had heard of it, she had volunteered straight away. She would operate from the shadows of the city, learn what the other factions plot, and act accordingly while making a profit for the Syndicate.
She took a portal straight to Gadgetzan from Dalaran, redeeming a favour from her former employer. Straight away the Ebon Rose was hit by the blistering heat of Tanaris, not to mention the acrid taste and smell of the pollution coming from the various factories throughout the city. The last time she had seen Gadgetzan, it was nothing but a walled off town with sandstone huts. Now the city had traded in its former architectural styling for amalgamations of wood, stone and occasionally metal.
The Ebon Rose had been told by the goblin she spoke with that when she arrived at the city, the first thing she should do is speak with a goblin bartender by the name of Talan, and that he would tell her everything she’d need to know. For a price, of course. As the old goblin saying goes, time is money and in Gadgetzan, nobody does anything for free. She began her walk through the city, energised and ready for whatever comes next.
Turns out Jaina *is* a dreadlord.

I always knew she was shifty.
Writing Body Language
How to Improve your writing
This is something that happens every day in your life. A shift of your eyebrow in skepticism, or the way your lip may twitch to a half smile cause you’re trying not to laugh. These behaviors are vital for writing in character, because not only do the allow you to visually see what is happening but it is also reaffirming whatever emotion your character is showing.
So why should you write it?
Much of human communication is non-verbal which means you need to also translate this non-verbal reaction in a post. It allows you to greatly enhance the emotions of another character and always another person to ‘visually’ see how they feel in a post. Most of all, this will add depth and volume to your post to make it feel more real. IT will make your character feel like a human instead of just another fictional person you look at from above.
Below you will find a list different type of emotions and what sort of body language can be exhibited to them.
Three ways to accent an action.
When writing about emotions, there are different ways to verbally write them out. Each one is unique in their own way, allowing you to show more about the emotion.
Emphasize the Emotion. But doing this, you are expressing both the emotion and the body language. We’ll use a simple example. It’s short and simple yet you can sense he is happy. John felt so happy that he was humming a tune while walking down the hall.
Complicate the Emotion. Sometimes, even when you are feeling one emotion, deep down rooted underneath the facade of it all, there is actually an underlining emotion they feel. This is something you have to truly express otherwise no one will know. John felt so happy that he was humming a tune while walking down the hall. However, it was obvious by the way his nose crinkled that he was disgusted by the actions beforehand. Instead, John covered it up by appearing pleased today.
Contradict the Emotion. This is a little different than complicate. Contradicting means that you are claiming one thing when in fact its the other. In many ways, this has a variety of uses, from inner depth of the truth to what you see in person, or someone creating a wall. It could be considered a lie, but when is anything that easy? John felt so happy that he was humming a tune while walking down the hall. In truth, once he was in the classroom, his shoulders slumped and a pout crossed his lips when no one was around, showing just how displeased he was with the situation.
Remember that you do not always have to contradict or complicate anything. Sometimes all you need to do is emphasize and that will be just fine. You don’t always have to have an underlining complicated for an emotion to make it more enhanced.
Do be afraid to use the Thesaurus to also improve an emotion. Such things as “happy” is a nice emotional word, but think of how much more powerful it is when you heard some is “overjoyed” or “content.” She how these emotions matched up with a body language can give two different styles of happiness? Mix and match to find what works best for your character at the time.

To see just how much body language can reveal about a person. You will find things such as how a person lies, how the eyes reaction, the positioning of a person in personal space, mouth, and head body language and so much more.
Use these resources to greatly increase the reactions of your character to another and create a more life-like world.

So badass!
I hate gnomes.
You heard me right. They’re annoying little creatures and they’re hard to stab.
Goblins at least tend blow themselves up.
Why can’t everything be a good stabbing height?
You can still punt them! Or is stabbing just more satisfying? Cause I could understand that. @ebonrosewra
Yeah, punting is alright, but the satisfaction of a good stabbing can't be beat.
