A Pair of Thieves

A Pair of Thieves

It's not exactly Bonnie and Clyde, but sometime in the past week the Alliance Autumn Tea Green Guild, with Tiphaine as the Guild Leader, discovered that the guild's only available "Level 110 Boost" had been stolen. There is strong suspicion that Wildshard was involved in the theft. Wild broke away from the guild weeks ago, intending to start his own guild called BloodNtheWater.
  Rumors are rampant, but Wild may have had an accomplice as well. No one has seen Jocelyne since the theft was discovered.


Sure enough, Wildshard finally admitted he took the Boost and gave it to Jocelyne despite the fact that Jocy was Horde. Just one more dig at Tiphaine.

Then came a new surprise. The Horde "Order of the Dragon" guild has long been listed as inactive. Under such circumstances "Any member of the guild could now claim the title of guild leader."

A smiling Jocelyne walked into the guild office, tapped the "Dethrone" button and claimed the guild. All Hail Jocelyne, Guild Leader of the "Order of the Dragon."

Tiphaine considers Jocy's guild to be a competitor of hers, but a new pair of eyes is always good. Now there will be someone checking in on Horde issues.

Wild is still struggling with his own crippled attempts at making a guild, but he's happy for Jocy. Some day he'll get those four signatures and Wild will have his own guild.

Jocelyne has a greater goal in mind now. She is at level 100 and intends to take the Boost that would send her up to Level 110. Soon, very soon, she will be sporting a Level 110 outfit.

 Everyone is calling the move "Jocelyne's Escapade." Or, How to Steal a Guild and a Boost Without Getting Killed.

Preparations for the Boost are underway.
Here are her current stats: Level 100 Protection Paladin, i152, Oathseeker Main Hand and Truthguard Off Hand. iLevel Gear 143. Jocy has not yet earned an artifact weapon nor can she unlock her Class Order Hall. The boost will provide that.

There was one decision she had to agree to. She did not have the skills to choose Protection, which is Jocy's preferred specialization. She must begin as Retribution.


Jocelyne took the Boost. There was some training on what skills to use in various combat situations. She received her Truthguard off hand, but it is already outdated.  Jocy then received an ilevel 185 two-hander instead. Truthguard is only 152. So Jocy has her best weapon at hand.

There was a scenario that ended prematurely, but no harm seemed to have been done, at least that  could be seen. Her new gear score is ilevel 177. She is still forced to use Retribution for her specialization. There must be more training coming. She's been getting things from footlockers as well. AND she can FLY!

She has ZERO XP, though. First time she's seen that. One kill should fix that.

OOOH!  Here is the find of the century. Jocy found the BANK! Look at this! The Horde has been Hoarding! Jocy is RICH RICH RICH!

Well, she's rich in goods. Her bank, though, shows a different story. Jocy's bank is barely half a million. Jocy is laughing. "Only" half a million. Jocy feels drunk. It's too much. Getting drunk seems like a good idea, too.

Hours later Jocy found herself at the Wyvern's Tail, a local tavern. She needed a place to stay. The innkeeper, Nufa, took her gold and Jocy now has a home. For now.
