It’s a small Azeroth, after all (or, fountain coin for your thoughts?)

My buddy Palehoof started quite the meme today when he grabbed a meme from the ‘Hoof realm forums and posted it on the general forums. Pale asked everyone:

[I]f someone caught your coin from the fountain in Dalaran, what would it say on it?

I jokingly replied to the thread “I wish, I wish I didn’t kill that fish” (oh, The Simpsons). If you asked my character though, he’d probably say something very Paladin-y, like “For the war dead of Quel’Thalas” or “I will fight the Scourge until it ends me.” Something heroic and foreshadowing his eventual evisceration at the hands of some raid boss.

I’m not really an RPer, but there’s something to be said for those little flairs that give your character a little life. For that reason I always wear the Argent Dawn tabard on Rhidach, as well as carry Uther’s coin (technically he touched it once, right?) in my inventory.

Anyways, great discussion idea Pale!

    Hm, this IS an interesting idea for a meme! I’d have to do some thinking on what Anea’s would say though.

    If I had a pally, I would carry Uther’s coin around with me too. I love Uther.

    Question: Would you touch Arthas’s coin if you caught it?

    Second Question: What are you using to display your equipment in your sidebar?

    @Anea: I have a bad habit of /saluting him during the opening scene of CoT: Stratholme every time I see him.

    @Wukki: Alas, I have caught Arthas’ coin. But believe me, I tossed it right back in afterwards. Also, I’m using the wow-armory plugin for wordpress: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wow-armory/
