If you want to join the guild, or plan to RP with us regularly, please consider installing the following addons:
Tongues: this is so useful that it's almost obligatory. It provides the very useful functionality of allowing non-Kaldorei to learn Darnassian, for example, but its main use is to allow us to speak Common in /raid for OOC chat, without having to constantly switch languages. This is of course very important for making sure that any non-Kaldorei guests don't feel excluded. If your character is Kaldorei, and not a Druid, this should need zero setting up (the defaults are just what you need), but otherwise, ask for help with the settings; they're not very self-explanatory.
MyRoleplay: optional, but quite handy, this allows other players to see a description of your character through the UI. The interface is very easy to use. There are a few alternatives to this one, but e.g. FlagRSP2 is probably less good, and last time we checked, ImmersionRP hadn't been updated for the expansion.
Verisimilar: We don't use this very often, but when we do, it's essential. It allows one of us (whoever's running the story) to produce speech and emotes that appear to come from NPCs, and "eavesdrop" remotely on what's going on near your character. It also has other functions, but we're less likely to use them. No advance setting up is needed, and it's easy to join a session; please just have it installed so we can use it when the occasion demands.
For a discussion of addons for PvE purposes, see the "Welcome to the endgame" thread in The Scrying Pool.
