== Atal'Loa ==
−
Atal'Loa is a guild formed by trolls who wish to return to something they refer to as the "good old time", where there were trolls that did all they could to stay on the path that the Loa had set for them. They believe that the Darkspear Tribe has left religion behind and use the Loa for extraction of divine powers without serving them properly with rituals and sacrifices. They also believe that the blind services of the bloodgod Hakkar must end but since the other tribes are so hostile they have decided to start in the west, to reclaim the Holy Land of Stranglethorn Vale.

[[Image:ALwikipic.jpg|thumb|left|Some members]]Atal'Loa seeks to convince all trolls of the Horde that the Horde is using them for their personal interest. Instead they want them to complete their own community of trolls where they will only be used by the Loa to do great things. Atal'Loa seeks more trolls who are prepared to seek the perfect path of service at the side of their new leaders, in the name of the Loa.

-''The trolls’ religion takes a decidedly different dark bent than the shamanistic beliefs of the orcs and tauren, though. Trolls have a complex belief system involving malign spirits and their effect on the world, but no scholar has established what is truth and what is simply long-held belief. All trolls come from a dark and bloodthirsty history of sacrifice, cannibalism and black magic. They consider spirits to be individuals much like living creatures. Spirits are greedy, hostile and dangerous. Trolls also believe their ancestors linger on as jealous spirits who miss the land of the living and require blood sacrifices to appease them. Trolls sacrifice and eat their enemies. They conduct these practices for two reasons. First, they believe the sacrifice of sentient creatures appeases malicious spirits. Second, they believe that after death, an enemy’s spirit can visit misfortune on its killer. By consuming the flesh of their enemies, trolls believe they can also consume their enemy’s spirit, or at least damage it enough to render it impotent.'' [http://www.wowwiki.com/Loa]

===Loa information (basic):===
  
   
  +
Atal'Loa was formed with one goal in mind, to unite all trolls in the name of the Loa and stand strong against the young races until the day trolls dominate Azeroth once more.
−
Here is a 'basic' (more to come) list of some of the Loa we plan to follow, those who choose to follow and pay homage to a certain Loa will be pointed assignments which may please their Loa, for example; The trolls who follow Samedi will properly be sent to the Plaguelands to kill the undead trolls. (there are epic tasks like that for everyone! - we just have to figure more out).
  
   
  +
'''Behind the vision.'''
−
''Please note: the following Loa are considered Shadow Hunter Loa.''
  
   
  +
During his years of exile, the Shadow Hunter Bamboo'Chaa traveled the world seeking to perfecting his skills in Voodoo and warfare but it was during that time he became a visionary.
−
*'''Mueh'zala''' the Loa of death and terror towards the enemy.
  
−
"Mueh'zala blesses the Berserkers who ruthlessly give themselves in the battle, striking terror into the hearts of the most disciplined soldiers."
  
   
  +
Wherever he went, local trolls suffered at the hands of the younger races that seemed to flourish.
−
*The Loa '''Legba''': a master of swift motion and stamina.
  
−
"The body is a temple", Legba guides those who need to trust in their psycical strength and speed."
  
   
  +
This could not be his kin's destiny, should this carry on then all trolls would end up as speechless savages hiding in caves waiting to be hunted down.
−
*'''Lukou''': the Loa of healing and respite.
  
−
"Lukou gives the discipline a healer needs"
  
   
  +
He saw all tribal warfare as pointless bloodsport that had to end and it was possible too, long ago, Zul'Jin had re-groupped the war-torn tribes of the Amani empire, He would do the same but with all tribes of all nations.
−
*'''Ogoun''': the Loa of war, battle and hexxing.
  
−
Ogoun guides those who practise the ways of war and destructive magic"
  
   
  +
And there was only one way end the ancient hatreds and that would be to unite the trolls with something they share and is greater than any hatred, Religion, all trolls share faith in the LOA.
−
*'''Dambala''': is the Loa of serpents and treachery, a cunning hunter and a merciless foe.
  
   
  +
Then came the day the Atal'Hakkar infiltrated Zul'Gurub and the Horrid Hakkar was Physically summoned into this world.
−
*'''Samedi''': the Loa of cemeteries and the restful sleep of the dead. Samedi also gives strength to the living who mourn.
  
−
In Samedi’s eyes, the undead are abominations that should be destroyed
  
   
  +
This was set back for young 'Chaa who had planned to begin his work in Stranglethorn with the aid of the High Priests who were now under Hakkar's sway, war raged in the Jungles and the Loa were so angry no lone troll could make the sacrifices to peace them, should this not be the end, someone would have to gather those still failthful to the true Loa and strike against the Atal'Hakkar, they would be Atal'Loa.
−
*'''Shango''': controls the realm of storms the balance of nature.
  
−
Shango is a peaceful Loa who cares for the land but when angered, he will call down the wrath of the storm upon the defilers.
  
   
  +
Bamboo returned to Kalimdor with a change of plans but his visions for a better future intact.
⚫
==OOC Information==
  
  +
He would rally the Darkspear against the Orcish oppressors and one day return to the Vale.
−
'''Atal'Loa is the guild for any troll who seeks immersive troll RP. Your troll might have doubts in his tribes religious ways? Perhaps he seeks a closer relation to other trolls? Atal'Loa will gladly serve as a home for any lost troll!'''
  
   
  +
'''Atal'Loa Is Formed'''
−
Mind that the Shaman class is not allowed (you may roll a shaman but not title yourself as one, use the class to play a witch doctor or something)
  
   
  +
'Chaa spent the next two years within The Horde, earning the ranks and reputation needed, happy to be among the Darkspear once again and see most of them had not abandoned the Loa and praised the great spirits in secret, the orcs paid little attention to their troll allies. Now was the time to put his plans into action.
−
All other classes allowed and again the only race allowed in is Troll... Oh and your character does not have to be a Darkspear (though it makes most sense) we take in those who are outcasts by their own tribe and can be of any use, they may also follow their tribe´s loa (those who are listed above are considered Darkspear Loa)
  
   
  +
'''Return To The Holy Land'''
−
I hope this guild may rise to be active, fun and respected, I have plenty events in mind (easy since there are troll related thingys all over Azeroth! - Outland and Northrend will follow.)
  
   
  +
Bamboo'Chaa took most of his followers to settle in Stranglethorn Vale, since then Atal'Loa's numbers have been steadily rising, trolls from every corner of the world have come seeking to serve their gods.

IC background

Atal'Loa was formed with one goal in mind, to unite all trolls in the name of the Loa and stand strong against the young races until the day trolls dominate Azeroth once more.

Behind the vision.

During his years of exile, the Shadow Hunter Bamboo'Chaa traveled the world seeking to perfecting his skills in Voodoo and warfare but it was during that time he became a visionary.

Wherever he went, local trolls suffered at the hands of the younger races that seemed to flourish.

This could not be his kin's destiny, should this carry on then all trolls would end up as speechless savages hiding in caves waiting to be hunted down.

He saw all tribal warfare as pointless bloodsport that had to end and it was possible too, long ago, Zul'Jin had re-groupped the war-torn tribes of the Amani empire, He would do the same but with all tribes of all nations.

And there was only one way end the ancient hatreds and that would be to unite the trolls with something they share and is greater than any hatred, Religion, all trolls share faith in the LOA.

Then came the day the Atal'Hakkar infiltrated Zul'Gurub and the Horrid Hakkar was Physically summoned into this world.

This was set back for young 'Chaa who had planned to begin his work in Stranglethorn with the aid of the High Priests who were now under Hakkar's sway, war raged in the Jungles and the Loa were so angry no lone troll could make the sacrifices to peace them, should this not be the end, someone would have to gather those still failthful to the true Loa and strike against the Atal'Hakkar, they would be Atal'Loa.

Bamboo returned to Kalimdor with a change of plans but his visions for a better future intact. He would rally the Darkspear against the Orcish oppressors and one day return to the Vale.

Atal'Loa Is Formed

'Chaa spent the next two years within The Horde, earning the ranks and reputation needed, happy to be among the Darkspear once again and see most of them had not abandoned the Loa and praised the great spirits in secret, the orcs paid little attention to their troll allies. Now was the time to put his plans into action.

Return To The Holy Land

Bamboo'Chaa took most of his followers to settle in Stranglethorn Vale, since then Atal'Loa's numbers have been steadily rising, trolls from every corner of the world have come seeking to serve their gods.

Current Status

Bamboo'Chaa knows he will never see his vision come true himself but he plans to give Atal'Loa the starting push needed.

Majority of Atal'Loa are Darkspear trolls but many of the troll's Chaa chooses to keep close to himself are outcasts from other tribes, hence Atal'Loa has been mocked as a "Rag-tag band of troll zealots" that could not be further from the truth.

Atal'Loa stands as firm and thought out as any order or clan out there and follows Zandalarian Law. and are loyal to the King of all trolls, the great King Rastakhan.

Atal'Loa may be focused on working close with the Darkspear Tribe but they look towards The Zandalar Nation of Zul'Dazar as a role-model, This great, ancient troll nation has secluded themselves away from other tribes and constructed a more evolved society with greater understandings of technology and magic than other tribes. Sadly they are arrogant and see other troll nations as trouble and a waste of time.

Atal'Loa is well settled deep within the heart of Stranglethron Vale where they stay out of the conflict between the local tribes who's leaders still hold onto Hakkar's false promises, there is little to be done about them until the remaining taint of Atal'Hakkar has been washed out.

The Holy Land is plagued with more than Hakkar's ideals; poachers, pirates, Ogres, Naga, Murlocs, Trespassers, Tomb Raiders and last but not least The Venture Co, easily make other trolls the least of Atal'Loa's troubles.

Booty Bay and Grom'gol Base Camp are (for the time being) seen as friends and Allies.

Loa (Gods of the troll pantheon)

What are the Loa? (from wowwiki)

-The trolls’ religion takes a decidedly different dark bent than the shamanistic beliefs of the orcs and tauren, though. Trolls have a complex belief system involving malign spirits and their effect on the world, but no scholar has established what is truth and what is simply long-held belief. All trolls come from a dark and bloodthirsty history of sacrifice, cannibalism and black magic. They consider spirits to be individuals much like living creatures. Spirits are greedy, hostile and dangerous. Trolls also believe their ancestors linger on as jealous spirits who miss the land of the living and require blood sacrifices to appease them. Trolls sacrifice and eat their enemies. They conduct these practices for two reasons. First, they believe the sacrifice of sentient creatures appeases malicious spirits. Second, they believe that after death, an enemy’s spirit can visit misfortune on its killer. By consuming the flesh of their enemies, trolls believe they can also consume their enemy’s spirit, or at least damage it enough to render it impotent. [1]
