General Information
Sentinels is a Role Playing server. It went online July 12th, 2006, and is on Pacific Standard Time (PST), although the physical location of the server is located in New York.

Roleplaying on Sentinels
The roleplay community on Sentinels is considered to be a tightly-knit family. Random RP is hard to come by due to the server's age, but keeping oneself flagged for RP does help RPers find eachother. There are also a number of resources available such as in-game chat channels to help connect to RPers on the server and to help foster camaraderie. Server events do take place—mostly around the holidays—as well as a number of player-run taverns that run weekly across Azeroth. Many of the server's denizens recommend that those interested on moving to Sentinels roll a character first to get a feel of the community and see if it's right for them.
