World of Warcraft

I had read on the Kalimdor Project website that they were going to have some Sisterhood rp, Meetings etc

I thought this would be a great idea to have an actual Sisterhood made up RPers who play priestesses
Would anyone be interested in this kind of RP?

Thanks :)

great idea, though i'm no follower of the light i'll be cheering from darnassus.

I just thought it would be a great idea because it would bring more Priestess RP and more people can join in etc
it could even expand into lessons to show the young about the light, inductions into the Sisterhood etc

Isn't there a guild like this on Moonglade?

You would be wise to actually discuss this with the active guilds and members of the KP, since the Sisterhood wields an awful lot of power.

Thanks Laythe, i have done so now :)

I like the idea, Argent Dawn rp needs a sisterhood for night elves priestess. Looking forward to it, however, will be good to look around for priestess that could join the sistherood, and make sure it will give us a good experience. After all it can improve a lot the kalimdor's rp.

For now, even will be good to have a list of the hipotetical people that want to join or be part of it =).

I do quite like this idea. I roleplay Fael as a Priestess of the Moon, so being part of an actual sisterhood would really work to enhance my rp, hopefully others rp, what she does and overall immersion.

I would love to get involved, as long as it's not becoming one of those powerstruggles where one sister has more power/status than the other. If that's what's going to happen, I'll pass.



Not to sound blunt or anything, but I'd like to see some chances and opportunities for new faces to establish themselves better too, as opposed to always seeing the same people.

Im new bascially i thought this would be a good idea to bring about new faces as well

i was thinking to avoid power struggles is that we are all equal and answer to Tyrande
What do you think?

-- What I wrote here was meant for the AD The Royal Court thread. Somehow it ended up here. o_0 --

In the few guilds set up in Ashenvale already there is a hierarchy set up somewhat already, Laoise is the local Grove priestess and there is "underclass" of normal Priestesses and Acolytes, though we are few in numbers, there has never been really any major sisterhood grouping while i've been on AD, mainly due to the severe lack of priestesses.

I personally would like some cooperation with all the guilds of Ashenvale/Kalimdor (Ashenleaf, Moonrise, Hornmantled, WotA) in some form of council meeting or some such. But i cannot see anyone by Laoise being the Grove Priestess, since she's been doing it so long.

Of course, i would like to see the same and i think Laoise would be the best for it as well
but have others under her

By fear of getting my head ripped off; That's where my issue lies somewhat. It's great she's been doing it for so long, but does that automatically has to mean there is no room for other rpers to establish themselves too? Does this has to mean that coming up with a sisterhood like this to bring priestesses together automatically means that Laoise has to be "the leader?"
Being the grove priestess of the Ashenleaf Sentinels (or another more prominent guild) doesn't mean she should be head priestess of all the priestesses around (including those in all the other guilds), right?

Just my humble two cents, and forgive me if I am misunderstanding your post.

That's why I'm more inclined to this.

Laoise is the Grove priestess for both the Moonrise and the Ashenleaf, And there's nothing bad with new people establishing themselves. There has to be a grove priestess, like there has to be a captain in an armed unit, it's just the way it is, and with Laoise being the "longest Serving" priestess in Ashenvale, she should get the job.

But that's my two cents, and i think that's how the idea should run, there always has to be a leader of meetings or some such, so why not use someone who knows how to do it and has links to lots of guilds in and outside of Kalimdor

But my point is that in this case, there's not going to be such a job. Like I said, I love the idea of establishing a sisterhood, but only if it's going to be one where everyone's equal. It's great that Laoise is the Grove Priestess for Ashenleaf and the Hermitage, but she's not the Grove Priestess of the Crescentborne, for example. I'm sorry if this sounds harsh, but she's not Faeldien's superior. Faeldien is not an acolyte anymore. Note, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying I would not accept her position when interacting with her and her grove as it were, but I don't see why her being the overall leader has to be fully implemented in everything done regarding priestesses.

There doesn't have to always be a leader with projects like this. Why not do it so that there's another sister running the meeting everytime one's held? When they volunteer of course. You see, that's when you allow chars to develop, show themselves and establish themselves.

You could perhaps hold sermons, or discussions amongst the priestesses on various matters.
If Fael, for example, has a matter she wishes to discuss or bring up with the Sisterhood, she should be able to host a meeting and adress her sisters, without first having to go to Laoise the Grove Priestess to ask permission.


Equal, I say. There's no need for a leader to make this project succesful.

This is not simply about the Priestessi. Maybe you are equals amongst each other, but you will still stand above the rest. Priestessi are judge, jury and executioner when called on. They can order people in to battle and the Kaldorei would be obliged to follow. In many ways they are more powerful then Human nobles or Orc warlords, at least in terms of politics.

In that light it is not as much a "power struggle" but more a period that you must prove yourself to be capable to handle such responsibility. Sadly there are way to many people that would abuse such power.

Laoise has proven herself, many times over. Maybe in time you can also reach this, but do not expect instant respect and authority. Behind the screen we are all humans and experience has taught us to be weary of people claiming power simply because of class and background story.

I'm not expecting instant respect and authority. I do not even want it, and I most certainly am not intending to claim it and want everyone to do as I say. I'm not interested in such instant power over other players.

I know the position of the Sisterhood, and it's about the Sisterhood being equal. Like I said, Laoise is not Faeldien's superior. Fael is not an acolyte and not part of Laoise's grove. Fael spend her time down in Feralas most of the time, she's not going to show up in Ashenvale claiming authority. Like I said in my previous post; It's not that I refuse to accept Laoise's position as grove priestess of two big guilds established in Ashenvale, it's about that I don't think this project needs a leader as such to be succesful.

I have no issues with Laoise being the one talking/explaining any possible decissions perhaps being made by the Sisterhood, she has a known face. So long as it's clear that she's not the superior over the rest of the sisters.

What Arlien says is what i was thinking, but a link seems to have broken between my hands and my head.

I think everyone's speaking at cross-purposes here. The OP lifted the concept from Kalimdor forums which could have been perceived as trying to take it over and muscling in on an established community. I think probably it's more like taking the concept and altering it to make it more widespread, whereby:

Fael spend her time down in Feralas most of the time, she's not going to show up in Ashenvale claiming authority.

Concerns like this cease to be an issue.

It's sort of a moot point to discuss at this point anyway, as we don't even know if Laoise will even want to be leading, or even involved, so let's tighten up what could be a productive concept rather than speaking for other people.

In response to a comment above, there is indeed a "sisterhood of Elune" guild on Moonglade server. It is one of the oldest running RP guilds and has been hugely popular.
