Stonefoot Clan

WELCOME TO THE STONEFOOT CLAN! 
NEW RECRUITS If you have just joined the Clan, this post should give you the information you need to settle in and get the most from our guild.The Stonefoot Clan is a fairly small and relatively mature role play guild, which aims to provide a friendly atmosphere to help us all progress through the game. There are no level restrictions, and we're happy to give anyone a trial without a formal application process: a simple In Character chat with one of our officers should be sufficient.
CONTACT
If you want more information or a chat, then look out for Mortimér, Ledah Ironwing, Brund, Baraim, Karyrth Thunderstone, Ignar Ironwing or Ralla among others: or simply do a search for 'Stonefoot'!
THE CLAN
We roleplay a dwarven clan recovering from battles with the Dark Iron dwarves and dedicated to defending Ironforge and the Alliance. Due to class restrictions non-dwarves can also join in smaller numbers- particularly mages, shamans, druids and warlocks. But if you don't like dwarves then move on! We would also encourage anyone with a non-dwarf main to create a dwarf alt who can attend certain rp events. That way we dont 'dilute' the dwarven nature of the clan. Gnomes are fine though, being close relatives of dwarves. Especially if you have a beard (note: females gnomes are fine, we only have two or something though.)
THIS IS A ROLEPLAY REALM
As such, we only recruit people who are interested in roleplaying. This doesn't mean you have lots of roleplay experience, only that you are interested in learning at the very least. We expect members to respect the rules of the realm, and not give the Clan a bad name, so no Out Of Character comments in /say or /yell, as well as in the /guild channel. We have opened the /officer channel to all ranks, so that it can be used for any OOC conversation.
RECENT RP HISTORY
The STONEFOOT CLAN is a dwarven guild that was founded years ago by Mortimér Stonefoot: a proud and noble dwarf who inherited a mighty Grudge against the Dark Irons and Fire Lord Ragnaros himself. The Clan has grown strong and launched various attacks on the Dark Iron Strongholds. Even the Dark Iron City underneath Blackrock mountain has been attacked several times. But the Fire Lord RAGNAROS is both cunning and deceitful, and launched a secret offensive against the Stonefoots. Dark Irons spies were sent out to sow confusion and mistrust amongst the ranks o' the Stonefoots. Horde assasins were hired to weaken the Clan. The Fire Lord himself began a furious trancendant attack on Mortimérs mind, though after a tedious mind strugle Mortimér has been able to resist the powers o' Ragnaros. The Clan was crumbling and shiverin'. Until a brave dwarf stepped forward and called his clansmen to order. Master Thorbardin Shaterstar took over the High Thane scepter and led his clansmen forward. Though Mortimér was still High Lord in the Clan the mental duel against Ragnaras had left him unfit to lead the Clan. With time passing the Stonefoots now find themselves facing many fierce enemy's on several battlefronts. But face them we will!
GUILD VAULT
Our vault currently has 4 tabs, and is there for the use of the entire Clan. Access to the tabs is restricted by rank, but if you need something you can't access yourself please ask a higher rank.This is in place to prevent misuse of the vault. Rules are simple; if there's an item you can use then take it. However nothing can be removed to sell, disenchant, or give to a person or alt outside of the Clan. In exchange for the vaults use, we ask that you make donations to the funds, or donate items that may be of use to others. There is no hard or fast rule here; we would rather you make use of something you need than go without because you have nothing to give in return at that point.
EVENTS
We aim to hold regular meetings and rp events for the Clan, and using the new in-game calendar we encourage all members to make use of it to create events and support those of others. Of course attendance at every meeting isn't mandatory, but the more events you attend, the better you'll get to know you clan. PVP As a dwarven clan we have no grudge against the horde, and as such do not support attacking horde settlements. Battlegrounds and pvp zones such as Lake Wintergrasp are another matter though!
