Northrend -- (July 21, 2010) – With the help of every member of the progression team, and the support of the entire guild, The Contemporary Heroes have cleared all evil from the halls of Icecrown Citadel – from Lord Marrowgar through to the dreaded Lich King (10 player) himself. As the members of the team danced around Arthas’ remains, they promised to return time and again with their friends to show the horrid leader of the scourge what a real team can do.

“This win belongs to the guild, not just to a small group of raiders,” Firestaryvfd, the guild master for Contemporary Heroes, explained. “Our goal now is to use the knowledge we gained in our fight with the Lich King to help everyone willing to put in the work earn a Kingslayer title.”

The revelry following this initial kill went long into the night, with rumors of CH raiders flaunting their new titles and bragging to passersby in all of the major cities of Azeroth (darker rumors put Tungol in Stormwind making sure Wrynn sees he is now a "Kingslayer").

Congratulations on killing the Lich King, Contemporary Heroes. We are truly in a great guild.

Effective June 29th this addition to the loot rules will be made:

Items with Strength and other Dps stats are considered main spec for Warriors, Death Knights, and Paladins who are rolling dps.

Items with Agility and other Dps stats are considered main spec for Rogues, Hunters, Feral Druids, and Enhancement Shamans.

The following will remain in the loot rules:
Weapons with Agility on them are considered to be main spec for Death Knight tanks.

Remember its not about the purple shinies.

Follow-up: In Contemporary Heroes raids Tungol has done an excellent job recently of overcoming the temptation to explain to the King Wrynn that his warrior spec and itimization is fail. However, it was noted that Tungol refused to come to His Majesty's defence during a Horde raid on Stormwind, choosing instead to defend King Magnini Bronzebeard in Ironforge.

March 3, 2010 – Varian Wrynn, the current king of Stormwind, turned his back on The Contemporary Heroes Wednesday after senior raider – and long time troublemaker – Tungol told him “We don’t want your help. Please go away,” in Icecrown Citadel.

The king, aghast at the insult, abruptly left, taking his “Strength of Wrynn” buff with him. While the other 24 heroes in the raid remained confused, Tungol was overheard mumbling something about “We don’t need him. He isn’t my king anyway. I didn’t vote for him.”

Luckily for the raid, the king returned after some crafty diplomacy by CH guildmaster Firestaryvfd. There were, however, still many hard feelings.

“I respect the strength that the Contemporary Heroes bring to the fight against the Lich King, but this Tungol may want to stay out of Stormwind for a few weeks,” Wrynn explained. “There are many hazardous spots in my city and I would hate to see him suffer an unfortunate ‘accident’.”

Guild leadership met shortly after the raid to discuss punishment for the brash warrior but, to date, no decision has been made regarding his fate.

Note: Seriously people! Don't talk to the king. We will make fun of you forever!!

As I’m sure everyone is aware, the movie of the decade (possible of the century), The Smurfs, is currently going into production. What many may not know, however, is that several prominent Contemporary Heroes have decided to audition for key roles in the new blockbuster. They include:

- Bloomyvfd as Harmony Smurf (featuring the new hit songs, “Our Smurfy Loot Rules” and “It’s not about the Smurfy Shinies”)

- Ralynn as Vanity Smurf (with the smurfy blue healing dress)

- Garitus as Papa Smurf (do we really need to explain this one?)

- Firestaryvfd as Brainy Smurf (watch as she proposes smurfy new ways to defeat Gargamel)

- Nellaandra as Jokey Smurf (laughing so hard, she falls out of her chair)

- Tungol as Clumsy Smurf (really, people, don’t talk to the king in ICC – we will make fun of you forever), and

- Morassa as Baker Smurf (hope they like smurfy fish feasts)

So, get your face paint and popcorn ready. It should be a smurfy good time.
