Around Azeroth: We’ll meet again, don’t know where, don’t know when

After druid Anesidora won a good piece of DPS gear over him, troll rogue Eternist of The Esoteric on Terokkar (US-H) invited her to meet him out in the middle of nowhere to settle their score once and for all. Unfortunately for Anesidora, a three-inch tree isn’t going to be much of a match for a full-sized troll with some sharp, pointy daggers. She should start genuflecting now if she doesn’t want to end up as a well-trimmed bonsai on the desk in Eternist’s cubicle.

Around Azeroth: Little boxes on the hillside

Anyone else remember the Arrested Development episode where Tobias dresses up as a giant mole and attacks a fake town? Of course you do. If everyone on the internet who loves Arrested Development watched it when it was on, the damn thing would have never been cancelled. And now the same thing is happening with Community! When will we learn from history?

Anyway. Tangent over. “After sneaking in to the tonk battle arena, I decided to put the ‘wrath’ back into Dragonwrath and terrorize the town,” writes submitter Dark Dragon. “Once the Darkmoon Faire called their security, the guards mistook me for the real thing, and now they’re looking to put me in their zoo enclosure.”

Around Azeroth: Skulking around the Christmas tree

Naeem of Sporebat on Bloodscalp (US-H) furtively attempts to decorate his Winter Veil tree while his felhunter stands guard against any encroaching Alliance. Admittedly, at level 34, Naeem doesn’t have much of a chance against any opponents, but perhaps the holiday season will lead to a sudden display of basic human decency and no one will gank him. Heh. A ceasefire on a PvP server? That would truly be a Christmas miracle.

Around Azeroth: I’ll be in an alternate dimension for Christmas, if only in my dreams

How I miss those old Christmases in the north woods of Wisconsin — riding through a snowstorm on my glowing bird, trying to escape the meteorite hurtling through the green sky behind me. Then they caught the guy who was putting LSD in the drinking water, and those days were over. Halrandir of Midnight Cartel on Elune (US-A) writes, “My good ol’ mage respecced frost for kicks for a while, but just couldn’t lay off the portal experiments. Unfortunately, in respeccing he gave up his Arcane Specialization; he has no idea how he went wrong this time, but apparently casting Blizzard during a portal spell has interesting effects.”

Around Azeroth: They took my wheels!

After stumbling upon a Scarlet Crusade encampment in the Eastern Plaguelands, submitter Seb suffered a fate worse than death — the loss of his beloved Mechano-Hog to the Crusader brutes. They drove it all the way from Tyr’s Hand to Booty Bay and didn’t even bother to change the oil! Do they know how much it costs to replace one of those things? Eradicators of the undead menace? Hah! They’re nothing more than common street thieves.

Around Azeroth: The sunflower treason and plot

I have been vocal in the past about my distrust of the sunflower pet, and seeing a group of them meeting — inevitably plotting something — only heightens my suspicions. What exactly do these brainless heliotropes have to talk about? And why are they excluding their fellow walking plant, the Sinister Squashling moping over there to the right? Is it because he’s orange? Racists! (Thanks to Twilo of Exodus on Terenas [EU-A] for the screenshot!)

Around Azeroth: Have I got a long way to run?

Tank-type dwarf Rorath of The Hallowed End on Llane (US-A) knows that raids come and go, but sometimes you just can’t beat the old classics. That’s why he still spends some time chasing Hordies down the length of the Deeprun Tram to their certain deaths in the other major city. We must protect the tram and its rat-catching inhabitants from the orc menace! Call Gnomeland Security!

Around Azeroth: Grumpy old monsters

Hey! You adventurers! Get off my lawn! You’re tracking the snow into my cave. Ehhh. The adventurers were prettier back in the day. And this reindeer isn’t as delicious as it used to be. I remember back in 2004, when that reindeer was just ripe for the pickin’. But now the Demmycrats are back in power and everything’s gone to hell. Oh, I miss that winter. I had tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time … (Thanks to Oofu of Silverfel on Blackhand [US-A] for the screenshot!)

Around Azeroth: I mock your suffering

Laugh it up, Nozdormu the Timeless. Laugh at our deaths, our wipes, our struggle to help your lazy behind defeat Deathwing. But you know what? You’re mortal now, too. We’ll see how hilarious you find your own demise! Oh yes, your time will come. And then will you haw-haw when you have nothing left to haw-haw about? (Thanks to Noobieninja of Crossbones on Burning Legion [US-H] for the screenshot!)

Around Azeroth: You’re as cuddly as a cactus, you’re as charming as an eel

A few observations on The Abominable Greench’s stash, photographed by the intrepid Kittens of The Den on Earthen Ring (EU-A):

  1. It looks like Greatfather Winter ran out of holiday-themed wrapping paper and started just skinning animals and wrapping presents in fur. A couple of boxes also appear to be demon-themed, and one present is locked, just to be a jerk to people without rogue friends.
  2. We need more trees decorated with functional swords and axes in real life. It looks a lot more hardcore than angels and popcorn strings.
  3. Judging by the broken ornaments on the cave floor and my own experience with household pets and Christmas trees, that guilty-looking wind-up corgi and robot may be responsible for more damage than the Greench himself.
