TVB: Recruiting and Looking for Main (Active) Characters
The Violet Bastion is an Alliance-side RP guild on Wrymrest Accord-US. We are an adventuring guild focused on a variety of educational pursuits and ideals; where our exploits find us traveling the world all in the name of research and discovery. Not a guild that pigeon holes it’s members into a certain role, we find many have a thirst for the thrill of adventure who all range from spell-slingers, bookworms, and shield bashing warriors! We offer quite a little bit to everyone like-minded on our journeys.
Our events consist of archaeological adventures, exploration, magical education seminars, and the occasional battle we may find ourselves conscripted for. Some of our more social events cater to the magical educational aspect, as well as events driven to give back to the communities our characters each hail from.
While we find ourselves sometimes in a friendly competition among our friends of the Explorers’ League and other adventuring guilds, knowledge we gain will be considered rightfully our own labor and as such, we will reap the benefits for our hard work. Though be expected to adhere to the proper conduct we work hard to maintain with dignity and respect.
Originally working under the umbrella of the Academy of Arcane Arts and Sciences, the Violet Bastion began as a small, very private educational structure based out of Stormwind City. Under the guidance of its original founder, only a select few were originally offered advanced instruction in its first few years of life while working in a number of ways to give back to their communities. Though its continued funding and political backing had been earned by means of Archmage Ambergin, whose direct ties with the Kirin Tor eventually amplified new growth - the Violet Bastion eventually became more inclusive and began to broaden its scope of offerings.
While keeping in compliance with both the Alliance and the Kirin Tor, the Violet Bastion became something in the way of its own entity over time, and found themselves quite noteworthy among their peers in the research and exploration community. The Violet Bastion even became known to be capable in times of war, though often only conscripted on more behind the scenes duty or providing exceptional souls to fill needed roles.
During the events of the Battle of Lordaeron, The Violet Bastion lost it’s original founder and closed its doors for a period of time. It was thought that The Violet Bastion would never be again until Arcanist Saedre Starweaver was finally presented with the late founder’s last will and testament, believed lost to record. Gifted with the ‘keys to the kingdom’, Arcanist Starweaver reopened The Violet Bastion and started to breathe new life into it once more in honor of her dear colleague and friend.
Presently, the Violet Bastion can be found operating within the estate that borders Redridge and Elwynn Forest; continuing to advance the Alliance in any way that they can through means of important research, instruction, and, more!
Interested in joining us?
Must be over the age of 18 to join. No exceptions.
Quick application via our guild webpage on our webpage here.
IC interview after application has been approved, and both officer and potential new member can log in at an agreed upon time.
Have a basic understanding of game lore and acknowledge you have read and understand our guild rules.
We utilize Discord and while it is not a requirement for joining, we highly encourage using it so you don’t miss important info and the opportunity to bond with other members of the guild.
About our RP and activity levels:
We are a medium-heavy level RP guild. Events are held weekly - twice, sometimes three times a week with casual RP in between as members see fit.
We understand our members have lives outside of the guild and/or simply wish to log in to explore content over RPing at that particular moment in time. Your time with us is meant to be stress-free and enjoyable. From our leadership team to our new recruits, we want everyone to feel at ease here, so understand that we are a laidback guild but do have an attendance policy that follows:
30 days policy goes into effect immediately: No communication. No login. Not being a part of anything IC or OOC will result in removal from the Violet Bastion. We feel this is more than fair given the whole, “Yo, we understand. Real life first!” You will not be removed if you let us know and are still trying to be a part of things via Discord.
Time-zones can be a bit of a pain in the butt at times, but we do try to be mindful of that per our own schedules that our leadership structure has out of the game. If you can’t make an event - we absolutely encourage any member to create one if they’d like to and we host a job-board for side quests delegated by our leadership structure for members to do in between events!
We are currently starting a storyline to tie into the events with Shadowlands, so come join us during this exciting time!
Please note the GM lives on EST so late night events aren’t usually scheduled until the weekends.
Helpful Info:
Current leadership structure: Saedre Starweaver (Saedre), Mason Kohler (Kohler), and Catisa Wells (Catisa)

The Hunt
Arrows flew through the air as one by one her companions fell to the writhing beast, the projectiles just bounced cleanly off of its hide and did nothing to slow its pace. Centuries of training and tutoring was lost before her very eyes in the claws of the ravenous hunger that consumed them all and she could only watch helplessly as her friends, family, and at last her husband were lost in the haze until only she remained. Deep down in the pit of her stomach she knew, she could feel its hunger looming over her, that she was next.
“The Sssssseeeeeekeeeeer.” Came the voice like that of a thousand ethereal snakes as it echoed from all around, it was impossible to discern the direction it had come from. “It’sssss tiiiiiiiime.” In that very instant endless darkness shrouded her senses and drew her deep into the depths of the bottomless void. The only thing she knew from that moment forward was hunger. Endless and eternal insatiable hunger.
Vengeance
Carnage covered the scenery and blood soaked what was once considered sacred ground, but no longer. That was the last thing she saw before she had lost her sight and it would forever be the only thing she could picture in her mind, that and the burning of her home as she held her sister’s corpse. Burned so vividly into her memory despite the fact that her eyesight was stolen by the edge of an Orc’s axe later in that same battle. Darkshore was no longer home, it was a warzone.
While her sisters mourned and moved on with the truce that had been established between the Horde and the Alliance, she vowed revenge and she would have it. The invaders would be purged from her homeland and her sister would be avenged. Once a Sentinel, but no longer. Now she served only one; The Master. The one who provided her a means of sight in exchange for her loyalty and effectively the means to seek out her vengeance on those that took her home and her family away. The Horde.
The Beginning
“I finally found her.” The large man grinned beneath that snow white beard of his and stood proud of his accomplishment upon the dirt road of Redridge’s mountain pass. A ways before him were the large impassive gates to the Estates of The Violet Bastion with the even more imposing structures that rose high above from behind it. Bright blue eyes that seemed far more youthful than the rest of the man gazed up at his destination as he lumbered forth with his old walking stick.
The Mind’s Prison
“What do you want?” She spat, her long dark-gray locks spilled onto her face as she scowled at the dark hooded figure that stood before her. The Ren'dorei began to pace back and forth in the pure white that surrounded them, as if they were nowhere inside of nothing. Her violet gaze searched for a sign of something beneath that hood, but found nothing. Just an abyssal darkness within that black robe. A husk.
Keep reading
Be the villain you were born to be. Stop waiting for someone to come along and corrupt you. Succumb to the darkness yourself.

Our members are expected to pull their own weight and understand that you get out of the guild what you put into it. Closed mouths do not get fed. Nor can we create all of your fun for you. You are the decider of this. We build the bridge. It is up to you to cross it.
