Description Me and have started up a TG themed alliance guild on Sentinels. We're looking to build our ranks, if you can spare an alt!

It's Shay, as a female Gnome! How did this happen? It wasn't Shay's first TG experience, and well, it's a LONG story...

Because Warcraft lore is cross-dimensional friendly, it wasn't too much of a stretch to introduce Shay into Azeroth, since Kaelriyu as well is cross-dimensional friendly, though not to the extent of Warcrafts... till now!

In an attempt to prevent his latent power to be abused by the Ra'Xilt cult, Shay took drastic measures: using the very device the Ra'Xilt built to reforge the world, he used it to cross into another, random world. The odds of the Ra'Xilt finding him and proceeding with their plan were reduced to nearly zero.

However, Azeroth was very different from Kaelriyu. Finding himself on Bloodmyst Isle (its collection of portals likely the catalyst that smoothed his transition into Azeroth) he quickly found through observation, the local elves were steadfast on assaulting the Draenei. Unfortunately, Kaelriyan elves look far too dissimilar from these elves, and so he needed to form a disguise.

A chance meeting with a gnomish mage who boasted her affinity for polymorph spells gave him hope. This mage, Gizma, promised to quickly and easily turn Shay into a form identical to the local elves. Gizma, however, was no mage: she was a warlock, and with the willing Shay, she was able to use demonic magic to transform Shay not into a blood elf, but into a lithe, female Eredar, with a form closer to a Draenei so that she could walk about without suspicion. At first, Gizma toyed with Shay, but his unshakable will 'caused her to take extreme measures to keep her pet obedient: she drained Shay's soul, replacing it with another soul prepared to assume the identity of the demon, now dubbed Shayenei.

At first, Shayenei was an obedient servant, but as a spell designed to mold her personality into a safer, beauty-obsessed individual corrupted her too much, Shayenei began to break free of Gizma's control and seek her own path. Originally made a Paladin to defend Gizma, the exposure to the light hastened her freedom from Gizma's control, and Shayenei now basks in the light, taking up the mantle of the Priest. Fortunately for Gizma, her control over Shayenei was subtle, and can still rely on Shayenei as a loyal friend.

Later, Shayenei started exhibiting strange behavior: her normally vapid nature was interrupted by an impressively tactical mind. When Shayenei started discussing Kaelriyu's magic, Gizma knew some semblance of Shay remained. Taking great care, once again Gizma drained Shay's soul from Shayenei. What Gizma now had were, strangely enough, 2 Shay souls.

Kaelriyans have more complex souls than one would seem, made up of a core and resonating energy, and Gizma had separated Shay's. She didn't know, and was curious as to what the semblance of Shay was that could have still persisted within Shayenei. Her curiosity led her to transplant the energy into the soulless body of a night elf druid, who's consciousness had been lost to the Nightmare.

Shay, even in the form of excess energy, wouldn't give up. His soul energy grafted the left over residues in the soul shard in order to function as full-fledged soul: just without the stabilizing core, still in Gizma's possession. However, to do this required his Myrtek training of imprint exploitation. Because of that, Shay's consciousness acts through the grafted residues, while his energy focuses on holding everything together. Now strong enough to animate a body, Shay was finally awake and free: at a price.

To Gizma's surprise, the night elf awoke: and claimed she was Shay! Using nefarious magic, Gizma decided to keep the night elf around to investigate. Interestingly, the night elf would transform, seemingly randomly, into familiar forms: bodies of those who's souls she had kept in the soul shard she had used to capture the soul energies of Shay. Not only that, but after a few moments after transforming, Shay's behavior would slowly warp into that of the original body's. Better yet, Shay would later claim he was in control: the body simply translated his wishes differently. It didn't take long for Gizma to figure out what was going on.

Deciding to have fun with it, Gizma baits out "shifty" Shay's transformations to toy with him. Her favorite, the above Sugarberry, can't help but act cutesy and admire Gizma. Shay's consciousness is the most out of sync with Sugarberry, giving Shay very little room to "nudge" her behavior the way he wants.

Hi, I'd like to create a night elf priest for your guild. I can talk with the headset, so we can coordinate dungeon runs and stuff. I should start off male and then get zapped, or already be a female ne priest?

That'd be fine ^^ Though I don't know how active the guild is these days @.@ I haven't played much myself I'll be much more active when cata hits, but I imagine I'll probably be on more to role play than do any hardcore leveling :3 What kind of origin story did you have in mind?

kwr2k11 In reply to shay24 [2010-11-23 00:53:30 +0000 UTC]

Well, I already have a worgen priest idea. The priest is gathering herbs and creating potions when he/she is attacked by a Worgen, becoming a worgen him/herself. Now he/she uses their herb/alch abilities to try to reverse the worgen curse.

cool I just finished my idea, where a witch steals the body of a colleague, since she became host to a demon. Inside her body, he can act normally, but has limited access to his powers since using them transforms him/her into the demon's form: a worgen.

Basically, in human form he can act himself, but as the worgen she's more sinister and would use her powers (and body if need be!) to get whatever she wants.

Sounds cool. Wil your worgen be on Sentinels? My worgen priest will be on Sentinels as well. I made a Dwarf shaman (since the new patch is up, with all new classes).

Alliance get new priests with the gnomes, and the dwarves try their hand at shamanism and warlocks. Night elfs now have mages, and humans have hunters.

Horde side: Trolls get druids, and Tauren get some paladins and priests, Blood elf gain warriors, and the undead employ hunters. Orcs get to be mages.

I'm pretty sure I"ll be on sentinels, yup.

I've been brainstorming on ideas for TG-themed characters based along some of the new combo's, but none of them were very enticing to me If I get a good idea for one I'll try rolling it though.

Between her spiky hair and her eyes, she appears very surprised. I guess she simply isn't used to being so short.

Very nice job on this. She's got that wonderful set of proportions that only gnomes and halflings can pull off regularly.

Thanks ^^ this is actually my first attempt at drawing a gnome :3 I think I'll keep the extra wide hips: smaller legs aren't as big a deal with a bit more swing to the step XD

And yup, she's not very happy lol. Unfortunately for Shay, his mind will lose sync and Sugarberry will be quite happy, lol

MaruKazeryu In reply to IrateResearchers [2010-03-09 03:05:09 +0000 UTC]

yep, a rogue and druid

I couldn't decide if I wanted a rogue, hunter, or druid, but my ex-main(before my DK) was a hunter on gnomeregan, so I decided no...then after that I just thought "if I can't decide on one or the other, why not both?" so I made both

I might have made a gnome, but...I don't really like gnomes...

Princess-Kay [2010-03-08 08:08:20 +0000 UTC]

Nice.

I once designed a character who couldn't stop shifting (Probably partially inspired by your stuff, though...) Basically it was a ghost who'd had the shards of dozens of personalities shoved into him, so whenever he was triggered... he'd just change into that personality and form. *Has so many characters it's not even funny* Don't know if I have any alts that would help you, though...................

👍: 0 ⏩: 2

shay24 In reply to Princess-Kay [2010-03-08 08:16:30 +0000 UTC]

Well, if you do play, roll on our server :3

Also, I can't BELIEVE I omitted that (well, its 3am for me, so I can kind of believe it) but "shifty" Shay here's case is very similar to the one you described!

The soul energy that Gizma absorbed, in order to sustain itself, assimilated the various soul residues left in the crystal. Shay already had issues holding on to a specific form, but a bundle of his soul energy patched together with random soul residues is even more unstable.

I need to update the comments now, thanks for helping me catch that
