WoW Week 1

Today we take the much anticipated plunge into World of Warcraft. This will be our first journey into Azeroth, as part of the Alliance. Today is about getting our bearings.

You have several tasks to complete during this first adventure. Firstly, you must all begin to explore your environment. Be careful about wandering off the beaten path of trails and roads, You will encounter many dangers lying in wait if you do. You will need to complete your first few quests which will aid you in gaining experience points and levelling up, as well has help you to build up your inventory.

Your homework job for this week will be to read the first chapter of your chosen graphic novel.
When you do so, you must think about ways in which the story you are reading is similar to different elements of World of Warcraft. You will then need to write a short journal entry in this blog, of 1-2 paragraphs which discuss these similarities.

Watch out for grammar and punctuation difficulties!

It might help you to think about Lore, characters, settings, quests, language  both in the book and in the game. I look forward to reading your first journal entry. We will begin next week's quest in-world. Check back next week for a glimpse of what is in store.

Description of what we saw:


I only saw all the other players join the game but after, I began to run so that I wasn't slain by a sword.





Adventures we had:

I first saw lots of other players join the game, and then was when we could move ourselves. The first thing I did was to run after watching many of the other players melt into the ground after being slain by swords. After that I went to an island which I found a bit far from the start point to make sure that nobody would find me. My house was a bit large but it wouldn't last long until these wasn't  my property because as soon as I turned around, there was a red screen with the two options: 'respawn' and 'main menu'.





Challenges we faced:

I only began to build my house but then somebody came to steal it to me.




Images of what we observed:
