Lastly, this is based on a surface reading of the events in the starting area. Later lore will lead to different interpretations of events, I&#8217;m sure.<\/p>\n<p>You begin life as a goblin searching out your own fame and fortune. You&#8217;ve recently been granted a promotion in the Bilgewater Cartel, and now work with an executive assistant named Sassy Hardwrench. There&#8217;s even a pair of hardbodied &#8220;assistants&#8221; who&#8217;re eager to help out named Candy Cane and Chip Endale. Considering how Candy and Chip are dressed, though, I suspect they&#8217;re mostly lingering around as decoration.<\/p>\n<p>With three characters inimately involved with your character from the word &#8220;go,&#8221; your goblin will have dozens of valuable conflicts available for regular roleplay. What was your experience with Sassy <em>really<\/em> like? (Obviously, there&#8217;s as in-game answer to that question, but you should take liberties to represent your unique character.) Were you a bigger fan of Candy or Chip? We can presume the average goblin at your middle-management level all have similar assistants, so it&#8217;s not like you&#8217;re building a Mary Sue empire by writing out your own tea of assistants.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wow.com\/2010\/08\/01\/all-the-worlds-a-stage-starting-roleplay-as-a-goblin-in-catacl\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>All the World&#8217;s a Stage: Starting roleplay as a goblin in Cataclysm<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Filed under: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wow.com\/category\/all-the-worlds-a-stage\/\" rel=\"tag\">All the World&#8217;s a Stage (Roleplaying)<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wow.com\/2010\/08\/01\/all-the-worlds-a-stage-starting-roleplay-as-a-goblin-in-catacl\/\">All the World&#8217;s a Stage: Starting roleplay as a goblin in Cataclysm<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wow.com\">WoW.com<\/a> on Sun, 01 Aug 2010 20:00:00 EST.
