businesses but before long, we will
be expanding to far greater reaches
of the Horde community. However,
it is time I start this article on the
wonderful and quite popular, Tirisfal
Theatre Troupe.
Lord Atos Sunhart leads the Tirisfal
Theatre Troupe, a group of
outstanding actors and actresses
that perform at many different
events such as ones that they host,
some parties and fundraisers, and
they made an appearance at the
Tournament of Ages as well! Lord
Sunhart describes the troupe’s
mission as “bringing mirth and
whimsy to a world devastated and
consumed by war and hatred.”
I’m telling ya, somedays it

Troupe is so popular. Not only are
their plays quite wonderful and well
done, but they bring with them a
message that -- although it may
come subconsciously to most - never fails to entertain the masses
that attend their events and the
events they feature at.
The Tirisfal Theatre Troupe is nonprofit, as I’m sure most of you
know. They don’t charge for tickets
or anything of the like! Quite a feat
for a group that could only improve
themselves further with profits. “I
consider us a charity of selfsacrifice at times,” Atos stated,
insisting that I not call the Troupe a

to enjoy. They will, hopefully, be
performing smaller plays and
perhaps street performances until
then.
As mentioned, the Tirisfal Theatre
Troupe is non-profit and runs off of
donations from fans as well as Lord
Sunhart’s own coffer. They’ve been
low financially lately, he tells, but
they hope to solve that soon.
Although, suns, it does not have to
be a fundraiser for you to donate to
them! If you love their plays and
would like to see more, feel free to
pitch in and send them donations.
Every copper, I’m sure, would help.
No fear though, the troupe hopes to
host a few fundraiser events before
long and they hope that they will be
enjoyed by all who attend. They’ve
been collecting rare artifacts that a
collector would love to have,
perhaps

that are formulating as you read
this! I, unfortunately, do not have
more information on these events
but as it comes to me, I will be sure
to inform you all to the best of my
ability.
For aspiring thespians and stage
hands alike, they are strict about
their recruiting but they’d say
they’d love to have anyone
interested and enthused about the
arts. However, they keep their
group as small as they can manage
but will hire on more or induct
honorary troupies’ when they feel
comfortable enough to do so. Lord
Sunhart hopes to begin recruiting
again soon, spanning far and wide
with word of such. “Till then, we
hope our hopefuls can remain
patient and understanding,” Lord
Sunhart directs to the audience of
anxiously waiting thespians and
stage hands with aspirations set on
the Troupe.
As closing words, Lord Atos added
that the troupe adores their fans
and truly appreciates all the support
they’ve gotten. They cannot wait for
the anniversary celebration and, of
course, the future that awaits them.
They wish to apologize, however,
for
the
‘failures’
they’ve
experienced this year as far as
cancellations, hiatuses, and the
overall disappointment they may
have brought people.
“Know that myself and the troupe
intend to rekindle the great burst of
entertainment and excitement we
had in the beginning, and look
forward to performing for everyone
once more!” - Lord Atos Sunhart,
co-director and producer of The
Tirisfal Theatre Troupe.

The noble Lords and Ladies of Eventide date back through a lineage that extends into a time before the migration of the High Elves.
Their family has reached many corners of the society even as changes came to their people across the ages. Upon the peak of the Isle

houses.
They pride themselves of tradition and standards while placing their bloodline as well as members into positions throughout the
kingdom to better make actions to aid in restoring the glory of their people. Their true purpose has never been fully revealed as they

While the House flourished for centuries, in time they crumbled nearly to the point of no return. Deaths, attacks, and bad decisions

Elenaris. Raising their family up while continuing efforts to their people and the Horde has brought success and loss to the Matriarch.
Having acquired a seasoned battalion beneath her banner upon the reopening of the portal, Elenaris could not deny the need to
participate in war. The conflict has left them with depleted numbers and many remaining issues within their family. They look to refill
their halls with members of the House and guard so that they may better serve their kingdom.
House Eventide is a lawful-evil heavy roleplay guild that participates in noble/politcal and intrigue RP as well as slight military aspects.
All positions within the guild are available for recruitment aside from the highest rank which can be achieved by progression through ;

Court - High Standing nobles within the House that may or may also encompass family members of the Eventide line. This may also

Commissions are OPEN!
Enough people made mention that my prices were too high for what I
do, so for the sake of trying to get more business and support myself
and my fiancee financially, I decided to lower the prices. These are
the new basic prices for edits.
Some quick things of note:
- I do do light to medium NSFW content. Please see my blog’s /nsfw
tag for examples. Please expect to pay extra as these tend to take me
a lot of time due to the difficulty of posing and such.
- These commissions are my only source of income at the moment,
and all that my fiancee and I have to pay the bills as of right now! If
you don’t feel like commissioning me, consider donating to us via the
Paypal button on my personal blog?
- Note that I am not selling models, not am I selling any of
WoW/Blizzard’s resources. I am selling a service in the form of
artistic edits. When you commission me, you are commissioning the
time I will put into working on a picture, which will then be posted
publicly for free here on tumblr. All of my completed edits will be
posted here on tumblr!
How to commission me:
It’s simple! Send me a message here on tumblr first, telling me a bit
about what you would like to commission. If what you want sounds
feasible for the price range you’re offering, I’ll give you my email.
There, you can send me any references you may have, as well as the
WoW Armory links to your character(s). When I am ready to start
your commission, I will let you know on Tumblr, at which point you
are welcome to send the payment via PayPal!

happiness. CARD: Nine of Wands.
TAURUS: The time has come for you to take a break. You have done all you can for now and it’s harvest
time. Your careful efforts, research and planning will pay off. You will have good returns in business and in
relationships. CARD: Seven of Pentacles.
GEMINI: Feeling frustrated lately? This is normal but Uta's advised to take out your own frustrations in nondestructive ways. Keep a journal or talk to close friends to get all your bad vibes out safely. CARD: Page of
Wands (Reversed).
CANCER: This week it’s all about seeking your own truth. You need to withdraw from the situation for a
moment and use this information to find how pieces come together and see yourself within the grand scope of
the cosmos. When you have everything put together you will have the answer of who you really are inside.
CARD: The Hermit.
LEO: You are a fighter, but sometimes it’s best to stay out of a fight and allow others to fight their own
battles. No sense in risking your neck for something that will only drain your energy and resources. Step back
and access your motives before rushing in. CARD: Five of Wands (Reversed.)
VIRGO: You are dependable and loyal to those around you this week. It’s a good time to get organized and
get your money in order. But also remember to relax at times and enjoy the last, few blissful weeks of
summer. CARD: Knight of Pentacles.

and look at a situation from another angle. There is still a way to be brave and strong and make peace in a way
that respects everyone. CARD: Seven of Wands (Reversed.)
SCORPIO: Your mind is full of questions and wishing to find answers. Keep an ear out for messages about a
problem, or gossip. Perhaps others may have the solutions you are looking for. Hang out with friends and see
what their own thoughts can bring to the table. CARD: Page of Swords.
SAGITTARIUS: Sometimes there is a delay or lag in the universe in getting the things that we might need.
Travel plans may be postponed so be prepared to make new plans just in case. Success is still possible, it will
just take a little bit of extra work during this week to get it accomplished. CARD: The World (Reversed).
CAPRICORN: Your mind is sharp and your ideals are even sharper this week. Others may come to you for
advice, and respect it. However remember that emotions are just as important as pure reason, and sometimes
people just need someone to cry with. CARD: King of Swords.
AQUARIUS: This week is one of peaceful dreaminess. Homelife and friendships flourish and grow. Many
come to your side to delight in your gentle guidance, and you are indeed the perfect ‘star’ of the ball this
week. CARD: King of Cups.
PISCES: A new relationship is on the wing for you, either romantically, or in a platonic manner. Ideas are
coming together to create a beautiful third idea that is beautiful, and passionate. This is a good time to
network, and to meet new and powerful allies. CARD: Two of Cups.
