QUIET PLACES - GILNEAS

Quiet Places is a series of maps that mark suitable roleplay locations with little to no NPCs. They’ll be categorized as follows; Home - Closed buildings with a homey exterior ideal for walk up. ‘Open’ Home - Also a homey building but with actual openings or rooms. Camps - Refugee or relief tents along with supplies nearby. Merchant - Areas or caravans perfect for merchant or trading roleplay. Sacked - Destroyed, burning and pillaged buildings, streets or trading stalls. Forsaken - Places ‘claimed’ or occupied by the forsaken. Event - Miscellaneous areas that are heavily themed and may be perfect for certain rp scenarios.

Gilneas is a completely empty capital, making it an absolute favorite roleplay city for more than just Worgen. The only animated models you’ll find here are creaky windows, birds and other players. (I’m serious, not even a critter!) Blizzard’s art team outdid themselves with this Victorian grimdark atmosphere and haunted ghost-town. So come one come all edgelords and ladies!



Light’s Dawn Cathedral is the largest walk-up and event location by far. But many other areas are frequented like Greymane’s Court and some of Merchant Square. That being said, Gilneas is a complicated piece of in-game architecture. Some windows, ledges and buildings you can’t even access while other spots are purposefully tucked away. A frustrating place to explore but awesome to RP in. There are TONS of quiet buildings and spaces where people don’t seem to go or know about.

You’ll find mostly Alliance side roleplay here, but I’ve stumbled upon a few blood elves and the rare Forsaken. Honestly it’s a shame I haven’t come across more Horde side guild events taking place in Gilneas - there’s a nice chunk of the city heavily themed for our darkest lady. Not to mention it’s far easier to get to for Horde! Trust me!

So, to all roleplayers, consider making an event or a casual RP night in Gilneas some time soon! Or just head on over for some of that nice, dark setting.
