Over at wow_ladies on LJ, there was a prompt to outline a character's typical day. It's a fun exercise - I always like the ideas of Thespian Thursday, they usually inspire me to write a little bit. And writing is always good, yup.

So let's have a look at my Troll rogue's day! Being a guild leader and a workaholic, it's a loooong one.


-He gets up quite early, usually between 6 and 7 AM.

-Stumbles over things because someones always leaves stuff lying around. Curses the usual suspects silently.

-Prepares too much breakfast for the few guild members who are around at the moment. (He never learns. And it doesn't help that the Forsaken don't eat much.)

-Starts cleaning the guild base.

-Checks for new commissions (he advertises his work as a cook and alchemist. Troll needs money.)

-Either starts working on said commissions or, when there aren't any, tells one of the two prospective alchemists he trains that they can come over for some hours. Forgets that he can delegate, does the training himself.

-Has some breakfast leftovers for lunch. Tells himself that he should stop cooking for a whole company. Forgets this right away.

-Meets with his second-in-command. Gets told that no, he doesn't have to read the letters and to do the paperwork, she doesn't have to sleep and can do it on her own. Is reluctant, but secretly relieved that at least one person forces him to delegate stuff.

-Either continues working on commissions or prepares some simple alchemical stuff for sale. Troll needs money, remember?

-Notices that the guild base is cluttered again. Starts cleaning for the second time - if it's a week where a certain BElf paladin doesn't have cleaning duties for "being disrespectful at a guild meeting, which involves telling embarrassing stories about the leader's adventures in Northrend".

-Talks to guild members who have concerns or requests, tries to find solutions or at least listen. Is happy when a day passes where nobody got into trouble, which means that he has a free hour to drink tea and doze off on the sofa.

-Hurries out to buy supplies for the guild base or for work.

-Prepares dinner. Usually eats alone because the rest of the guild is either somewhere else or undead.

-Meets with his partner. She rebukes him because he works to much. He reminds her that working that much ensures that he can still make her expensive presents. They agree on taking a day off together... soon. Very soon. Yup.

-Some... er, shared relaxation ensues.

-She either has to leave or stays for the night. When she's asleep or has left, he usually spends another two or three hours in the alchemy lab. Falls asleep there from time to time.
