Welcome to the Unnamed Warcraft RP. Just one quick thing before we get started. This is not a World of Warcraft RP. This is mainly based off of Warcraft III and it's Expansion, The Frozen Throne.

Now, the general rules apply here. The ones in Mack's floated thread, and a few others. Namely, No Spamming, No Flamming, and NO GOD DAMNED GOD MODDING. Now, the set up of this RP is not custom in any way, sadly enough. There will be a set character list. Now, this does NOT mean that I will be controlling you throughout the RP. It just means that you'll have a general guideline that I would prefer you to follow to progress the story :P There are 24 total heroes. 4 for each normal race (Human, Orc, Undead, and Night Elf) and eight heroes from the Tavern (Will be explained later). Now, if we can even get 24 people to RP in this, there really isn't a limit to the number of people we can have playing, because even though there are 24 characters, each character can be used a certain number of times, thus making a crapload of possible people. And remember, everything will be explained, just sit tight :D

If you need anything, post here/PM me, we won't be starting for a while :P

THIS POST WILL GIVE YOU A VERY LIGHT SKIMMING OF THE BASIC STORY I HAVE IN MIND. TAKE A HUGE NOTE RIGHT NOW. I AM NOT MAKING YOU DO WHAT I WANT. THERE WILL BE A VERY, EXTREMELY VAGUE BASIC STORYLINE. The storyline will more than likely be easy to get off of and will probably be better if you do your own thing, but still, I'd like the storyline to be followed SLIGHTLY.

Alright, this is what our world map looks like.

[spoiler=It might stretch the screen >_>][/spoiler]

And this is a slightly more detailed and messy version that I whipped up to show where everyone will be based.

[spoiler=Same reason as above][/spoiler]

Orcs = Orcs :P
NE = Night Elves
Hu = Humans
HE= High Elves (Part of Humans but they just wanna get away :P)
Undead = Undead
That really deformed word at the bottom says "Tavern"

Alright. The Orcs were told by some prophet dude to go west to Kalimdor because the Undead were coming to kick everyone's asses, so Thrall, the main leader of the Orcs, listened and went to Kalimdor. The Orcs thought it would be unpopulated, and basically took over everywhere but that little Night Elf circle, in which Ashenvale and the Night Elves reside. The Orcs should eventually pair up with the Night Elves. Now, for the right hand side. The "Eastern Kingdoms" are the Humans being stupid as usual, dividing power to those who are supposedly "royal" and stuff blah blah blah. They hate everyone and don't care about anyone but themselves. In The Frozen Throne, some guy named Lord Garithos tries to take over what hasn't been destroyed by the Scourge/Burning Legion (Undead people that the prophet told the Orcs to run from) and utilized the High/Blood Elves magic to do so. The High Elves weren't very happy with this, and sided with some Night Elf dude gone bad. We're going to COMPLETELY ignore that fact and say that they should ally with the Undead, because where they reside is drained of all magic, and their race may die out unless they find a new, magic filled area. The Undead trick the High Elves and basically corrupt them, so yeah, that's generally what should happen. What happens in between is up to you guys.

Next Post: Heroes and what to do with them.

Alright. In this post I'll be explaining to you what heroes are available. I decided to go by a Warcraft III in-game thing and do this with heroes.

YOU ARE ALLOWED THREE HEROES!!!!!
That's right. You can choose up to three different paths! You can plan your own demise, ally with yourself! This provides MUCH more interesting things to happen! However, if you are going to talk with yourself, you must do so IN PUBLIC. You can't randomly say that the Undead and the Orcs are going to attack the Humans because your Lich and your Far Seer both said so and allied in secret. You MUST SAY WHAT YOU ARE SAYING TO YOUR OTHER HEROES. Now, to explain what heroes are.

Heroes that say *TAKEN* next to them are obviously taken :P However, Some heroes will say how many are allowed total. Like the Paladin, he is allowed to have three different people play as three different Paladins.

"Heroes are the backbone of an assault force. While it is possible to play without Heroes, it is not wise to do so. Many Heroes have Auras which can give bonuses to surrounding units. As Heroes advance in levels, they become even more powerful than normal units. Heroes also gain spells which can change the course of a battle. I In Warcraft III, the focus is on Heroes, spellcasting, and unit control. Unit match ups and numbers of units come in secondary. "

That's what Blizzard says about Heroes. The only different thing is that we have no actual units. Well, we do if say there's some huge war. Otherwise, it's Hero vs. Hero, no basic unit back-up.

Hero Rules:

You cannot train more than 3 Heroes.
You can only have one Hero of each type. So, if you have a Blademaster, you cannot build another one.
Heroes can carry up to 6 items.
Heroes do not leave corpses. (In other words, you can't be raised from the dead unless it's a Paladin doing so)
Global messages are sent to allies whenever a hero dies, regardless of who kills it. It goes by the format: <Hero Name> the <Hero Type> (Hero Level) has fallen. For Example: Marn Thunderhorn the Tauren Chieftain (level 5) has fallen.
Heroes are upgraded by leveling up and using Hero Items.
The maximum Hero level is 10.

Basic. Abide by those, please. :3

Now, for the actual heroes. The little bio will be like this:
