The Herald

SubjectThe Banner Is the Point

The office that speaks for this banner is Warchief, which is to say guild master. I answer for the roster, the direction, and who stands with this tribe. That is the seat. It is not a costume and it is not a speech I give so the page has a portrait of me. The subject is the Hakkar guild.

We are Horde on World of Warcraft: Forever. The name we wear is homage. Hakkar the Soulflayer is the blood loa of Zul'Gurub, and Hakkar was the name of our server. The US Hakkar realm opened on January 2, 2006, Central Time, as a PvP server. It was not a launch realm from November 23, 2004. It ran through the last year of that first age. When The Burning Crusade opened in North America on January 16, 2007, the realm continued. That is the server this guild remembers.

Hakkarians are the players who walked that server, Alliance and Horde, called now under one Horde banner. Returning players are the spine. Other Horde players who will show up, speak plainly, and treat a raid night as a shared obligation are welcome to apply. I do not invent a population. I do not borrow fame from guilds that are not ours. I write a name on the roster when the seat is truly held.

The invited list is a call, not a membership. Those names are pending. A player claims an invite by saying they are that person. Until then they are not Hakkarians, and this letter does not pretend they are. Officers are the seats that are held: I am Warchief, Cassanova keeps the raid, and ChaoticZero keeps the record.

Forever is an untamed frontier shaped by warring factions. It launches on November 4, 2026, and it is included with an active World of Warcraft subscription. It grows from the first age through content patches. Honor will change. There is a new camping system. Professions will be updated. I will not publish a raid clock before the night is real. I will not publish a PvP ladder, a decay rule, a season, or a battleground list that has not been stated.

Old PvP titles on our roster are history from the Hakkar server before The Burning Crusade. High Warlord, Grand Marshal, Field Marshal, Warlord: those are the honors players last held then. They are not current ranks on World of Warcraft: Forever. Scarab Lord, where it appears, is an Ahn'Qiraj title and a subtitle, not a guild office. We keep the titles because they are memory. We do not use them to rank the tribe today.

If you come, come as Horde. Bring your class and your spec as Forever allows them. Horde on Forever may play all nine classes, including the paladin. Say what you play when you apply. Say how you have raided, and say which nights you can actually keep once a time is locked. Do not guess a schedule to sound eager. Honesty is the standard.

The raid will have clear loot rules. No whispering for special deals. Attendance is part of the seat. If you cannot come, say so before the night, not during the pull. Cassanova will run that sheet. I hold the final call on direction, on who leads the raid, and on who stands with us.

Trade Chat is for a short line. The Herald is for a letter. If you need the record of the server, read ChaoticZero. If you need the shape of a raid night, read Cassanova. If you need to know who this tribe is, you are already in the right letter.

We call the players of the 2006 Hakkar server to stand as one tribe on World of Warcraft: Forever. For the Horde.
