The Warlocks Den Xmas Competition!
As you finish up your banking with Teller Gee, the new Dalaran Teller, your thoughts on how incompetent he seems are disrupted by a faint jingling of bells. You collect your last pieces of cloth and shove them carelessly into one of your backpacks, force a smile goodbye and make your way to the door. It is then that you notice the weather outside is different, yet you can't quite put a finger on how. When you step outside however, you realise instantly that the white haze is in fact snow. As you stare at a snow flake in your palm, you notice that everyone else is staring up, up behind you. You turn and see a big fat man standing on the roof of the Dalaran bank. Instantly you think to yourself "jump, go on, do it" and an evil smile slides its way across your face. Then... it happens. With one wrong step, the fat, red man wobbles, looses his footing, slides off the roof and lands at your feet with an almighty thud. Your mind races. Did you really cause this stranger to fall to his doom? Have you really become that powerful? It is then that you notice everyone staring at you, staring at the body. You immediately bend down to check his vitals, trying to remember what the face of concern looks like as you fumble your way around the big bulge, desperate to shift the looks of what you feel are blame. You feel a piece of paper in one of his pockets, rip it out and read it immediately. You have just killed Santa! Surely you did not just read that right. Confused, you shake your head and read the card again. Property of Santa. lf something should happen to me, put on my suit. The reindeer will know what to do. As your eyes scan the top of the bank, sure enough, there are eight reindeer and a sleigh. A commotion stirs up and you look back down to discover the man has disappeared and his suit lies on the ground, deflated. As the thought of a big fat naked man enters your head, you push it out again by grabbing the suit and putting it on. Well, the card said to... Congratulations!! You are now Santa for the next 24 hours!! That's right, by donning the suit, you become Santa for 24 hours. So, what do you do! As the above story tells you, you've killed Santa, have put on his suit and are now Santa for a day. You have a sleigh with eight reindeer that can travel all over the world quicker that you can say Albuquerque at your service. You have unlimited powers (within WoW) that you can choose to use for good or evil. So, what do you do? Welcome to The Warlocks Den Christmas Competition!!  How to play All you have to do is respond to this thread sharing what you would do for a day as Santa. Some rules do apply:
Prizes! This is another 'reply to enter' competition. At the completion I will be doing a /random in game to select the winner.
Post before December 25th! As this is a Xmas competition, it seems fitting to run it until December 25th. So be sure to post your entries as a reply to this thread before that date! Good Luck and a Ho Ho Ho!!

Re: The Warlocks Den Xmas Competition!
What to do, what to do indeed... It does not sounds really creative but.... I would do something about those damn gnomes. So I would swap them with Taurens so the alliance can have cool tree hugging Taurens while gnomes are send to the evil side of Azeroth and will hopefully be whiped out by undeads, orcs and trolls. And if not at least I can kill them since they belong to the horde muhauahuha. Furthermore I would go to the culling of Strat to assist Arthas in COT just to backstab him and loot his epics. Come to think of it I might destruct the whole lore of Warcraft but hey, we aint got a destruction tree for nothing do we? O and now I think of it gnomes are slaves of Santa right? So for 24 hours I would torture them and use them to get me loads of epics in all the dungeons and raids available. Then just before the 24 hours are over I would activate the plan I made further up. Taurens please. That was about it. Maybe it's a better idea if some helpfull priest in Dalaran just ressed the poor fat guy. Cheers, Amrot

Re: The Warlocks Den Xmas Competition!
Twas the night before Christmas and all thur the server not a creature was stirring not even a mouse on the Deeprun Tram. If I was Santa for 1 day, oh the wonderful sights we would see, Commandos and Ninja's and greifers would be but a memory. The stocking you hang would only have coal if you were a noob blacksmith who couldn't get to Charr Vale. Arena rating would bloom no more we suck at this on Christmas day. Servers would work and mobs would not bug. Even Arthus would smile. 90% of the gnomes would have to go though. Even as Allies they get on my nerves. Or maybe I would take some Christmas magic and make them what we all want. Cute Loveable and exploded. |

Re: The Warlocks Den Xmas Competition!
As the thought of a big fat naked man enters your head, you push it out again by grabbing the suit and putting it on. Well, the card said to... As a warlock I am used to spreading Corruption, Curses, and Disease. Hmm there’s presents up here I wondered what I’m supposed to do with these. It happened so suddenly with little thought of my own. Before I knew it my shriveled heart had grown. A flicker of a memory comes back from the past, now to deliver these presents to all in Azeroth and to do it fast. With a twinkle of my nose I am on the roof in great haste, upon donning the suit I knew there was no time to waste. All this new found love wanted to burst from my heart. This strange feeling of compassion got me in the big red cart. Onwards toward the magnificent city of Stormwind I flew. The sky had darkened to the deepest shades of blue. I knew that the children where asleep where they lay, some were in comfy beds while others in hay. To the orphanages I went first giving the biggest and the best. They were the most in need, to heck with the rest. With the darkness surrounding me I was most at ease, I am a Santa the warlock I can give to whom I please. All through the night never once was I seen. Not by Human, not by Elf not even by the Taureen. The night went off without a hitch. Now to get this darn suit off its beginning to itch.

Re: The Warlocks Den Xmas Competition!
as santa, i'd finally have the opportunity to right the wrongs of the warcraft realm perpetrated on locks. the first thing i'd have to do is to have the big guy's red suit tailored to fit my gnomish frame. i'd probably just set the workshop elves to reworking the hat into my new outfit. then i would swap warlocks with hunters for a day. let's see if they can manage to pump out mass amounts of hate with a clunky affliction rotation, and let the locks roll face again and hit the top of the dps charts. then to give all warlocks the ability to change their minion's names through an inscription scroll, much like those ungrateful hunters have. then i would set the little elves in the workshop to creating a glyph of howl of terror, which would reduce the cd of howl if specced to improved, or give them instant cast if not specced in improved. take that you pesky rogues! time's running short, and there's so much left to do! i'd definitely have to take away curse of the elements from all destro locks. that way mages can't cry when we cast curse of agony to proc molten core. silly mages, curses are for locks! i would then set the elves to creating a bottomless soulshard bag. and last, but definitely not least, i would summon little kupmir the imp, and have him run up to all boomkins, and toss out fireballs til their rear feathers were burnt to a crisp. alas, christmas is over, but there's always next year. in the meantime, i'd like to leave all you locks with this thought: at least you're not a shaman. |

Re: The Warlocks Den Xmas Competition!
3% chance while in flight to drop out of the sky, 99% chance Santa and his reindeer would come swooping in a catch you before the splat. If he misses, you splat, and then you get a "You've been naughty" message. Non durability hit. All fisherman who happen to use a red and while bobber (akin to what Santa looks like) get taken for a water skiing type ride, pulled by reindeer. Lasts a minute. Let's make it fun...you get to steer them. Random sleigh drops on any mob, anywhere in the game... even in an instance. 3% chance an hour on all servers, maximum 10 times an hour, and only on mobs currently aggroed. Christmas trees (evergreen coniferous type trees) have a 10% chance to dismount you if you get too close. Animation reminding you they don't appreciate being cut down. |

Re: The Warlocks Den Xmas Competition!
The absolute first thing I would do is SoC all those people standing around me. Supercharged SoC, instanly kills them, and splatters their blood all over the place, including my new suit. Good, the thing that too bright of a red anyway, now it's blood red, much more fitting for my warlock. Crashing Dalaran to the ground might be fun, but meh, not cruel enough for my tastes. How about making all the bosses in the game easier, and making the trash pulls 1 at a time. This way people could go get their loot. However, I would also reduce the durability on all epics to 1. This way everyone would go, "Awesome, I can has epix now." Then, they would go look at them, be even more excited as they would just look over the durability as they always do. Then, that super easy boss would jump up, and as they tried to kill it with their new shinies, they would break, and people would die. Great Fun by all!! |

Re: The Warlocks Den Xmas Competition!
The Orphanage In Dalaran did Santa Clause, That I become his aide decree: Where tears of mages plenty ran, Through the sewers measureless to man, Although Orcs have estimated them To be very long indeed. I had a sack of presents, What to do with them I thought: I could share them amongst The poor and the weak, Or appease the Netherlords With surprises lots and bounty. Then in my ear a voice I heard A whisper, no more, no less, Insistent as it was I chose To share with the weakest. To the Orgrimmar orph’nage I made much haste. To spread some Christmas cheer, But as I got there, the matron Left, cursing the living and the Dead. The winter see, was mighty cold, And the orphans were close to dead. O Lords, I muttered, why must it be me. I was used to ending pain and The misery I caused but, When I saw those freezing faces Something hot in me arose. Some call it love, others guilt It was very alarming you see. I dug deep into the Red Man's sack, Desperate to find something To save those innocent lives: I found nothing but toys, nothing Of use, nobody wanted a quilt. I heard a gasp, I didn’t have long. I rushed back home, tore the clothes Off the bed, and hurried to The orphanage where I wrapped Them up tight. Their colour returned, My heart lightened: Christmas now; The very best time of the year.

Re: The Warlocks Den Xmas Competition!
Santa for a Day They wouldn't see me coming.The darkness would hide me away. Warlock Santa- a new incarnation of "Good" i would be. All Warlocks everywhere would gain great presents.(except those "Grrrrrrr" gnomes and dwarfs of course) A neverending curse of Agony is all they will get. Please dear Warlock come sit on my lap, but don't flap your yap cause i'll tell you what you'll gat. No more immunity to fear and a stunned Warlock a thing of the past. A Horsemans' mount for we Warlocks whipping about at a cool 300% speed. But you ask, " What about everyone else? " Never you fret i know just what to give. A Healthstone under the tree, and then Warlocks will be O.P. I've given it my all, and i've come to the end. MERRY CHRISTMAS to all, and to all a Dead End. MUUUHAHAHAHAHA -A- |
