"Light" update, and unguilded RP

I spent my day off doing chores and mucking with music again.  I've switched to recording 'Light Be With You,' as it's a shorter, easier song.  I am recording one phrase at a time.  I have one verse completed out of three.

I like WoW holidays, although they make a great excuse not to be doing stuff in real life.  Right now I'm having Derscha fly around to all the elders. Doing EK today, Kalimdor tomorrow.  I enjoy the 'go everywhere in the world!' quests, even if it's just a lot of flying.


I was trying to spend more time on Elren when I'm online.  I like Derscha a lot, but the altoholic in me likes variety and the freedom to jump into plots Derscha is barred from.  Elren I want to level as well, but mainly so she can travel without dying.   I'm going to delay fully jumping into her character- there's some OOC stuff going on that means it'll be better if I wait before committing to aplot line with her.

I originally had planned on trying out tanking, or if that was horrible, trying out pally healing.  I've either chickened out of tanking, or wisely determined that I don't have time to learn.  One of the two. 

(Shout out to the blog 'Bravetank'!)

I'm not particularly interested in having Elren join any of the RP guilds I know.  Not that they're bad guilds, but just because I like doing "my own thing" right now.  The downside is that is harder to find RP, particularly on a realm driven by guild-based RP.  Can I successfully RP a toon outside of a guild?

I have a pretty solid idea about what Elren's doing.  And I have some some vague ideas for plots.  My problem is right now is judging how to right a plot others can be involved in, and hopefully not make Elren the center of action.   I'd prefer to drop into the role of "quest giver" if I can.  My plan right now is the role-play as a member of the "Azeroth Heritage Society," and maybe create a one-person guild.  Or would that ruin the no-guild experiment? Even if that doesn't pan out, she's still going to remain my "music toon."

... no pun intended.

In the meantime, I need to focus on just making connections in-game, and seeing if I can contribute to ongoing plots right now.
