Character Faction-Swap Opinion Gathering

So, after realising I have no support structure, friends, or inclination to play Hordeside, I've decided to faction-swap my Forsaken rogue to A-side once I get paid. It's sad - the rogue was my first character, and I love her RP concept. But, I never play her anymore, and you can't RP in a vacuum. And besides, I run a raid Alliance side, so can gear her out of the bizarre ilvl200-blues-through-T9-and-QD set-up I've got her in currently.

And more importantly, if I transfer her across I have the option of turning her into a "second" Illi - complete with Killing Spree and stealth kills. The idea turns me on a little I'll admit.

So that leaves the question - do I transfer her over as "Illi", and if I do - what do I name the rogue? I'd love to be able to use "Illi", but that's currently being used by a nubadin on Feathermoon, who's an active character. There's a few options - so I thought I'd poll the cheap seats, and see what the proletariat think.

If you've any suggestions, opinions, or experience in the matter please comment bellow.

I reeeeeaaaally don't care for the multiclass thing, so i voted a new character.

Same here, sorta. Trying the multi-class thing myself, doesn't really seem to pan out right. >_> The only big suggestion I would have, though, is take your time coming up with someone new. Once you figure out an idea that really seems to inspire, go nuts.

Unfortunetly WoW isn't set up where multi-classing is... Well... Worth it in my opinion.

If the character concept isn't Forsaken-exclusive, you could always try to theorycraft it over. If it is then get brainstormin'!

Eh. I considered the "second version of Illithias" aspect as I find it difficult enough to get to RP with my main, let alone secondary character. They never survive.

Looks like this will just end up a raiding/PvP alt rogue.

The Forsaken rogue was a dead farmwife from Ambermill who wanted to kill everything on Azeroth as retribution for having her family, home, and life taken away from her. That's not going to translate to anything else, sadly.
