Werewolf LXXXIV - Middle Earth in Fifteen Minutes - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Shastanis Althreduin · 11-14-2010, 07:24 PM

Hello and welcome to Tol-in-Gaurhoth LXXXIV - Middle Earth in Fifteen Minutes. While this game will be Tolkien-oriented, there will be a large (read: megamassive) element of parody, courtesy of the book Movies in Fifteen Minutes, copyright Cleolinda Jones. All scenes will be taken from said book and tweaked to fit the situations in which you'll find yourselves.

Rules - normal, standard rules apply.

Roles -

1 Seer - Galadriel.
1 Ranger - Aragorn.
1 Hunter - Legolas.

1 Heir - (explained below)

3(+) Wolves - actual wolves, not orcs or trolls or suchlike.

Depending on the number of signups I receive, I may add another wolf.

---------

The Heir - The Heir is a special role, randomly assigned to an ordo at the beginning of the game. The Heir will not be aware that he or she is the Heir. Regarding the Heir's function - the Heir is nothing more than an ordo until the first non-ordo dies. At that point, the Heir takes on whatever the non-ordo's role was - either becoming a Seer, Ranger, Hunter, or Wolf. In the narration where the Heir's power activates, the role of the deceased player will not be revealed.

DL is currently set to be 10 pm CST, but if this a problem for anyone please let me know as it's easily changeable on my end.

Any questions, feel free to ask.

I said I would take a break....but I changed my mind.

And your new role is brilliant, I wish I had thought of that!

If this starts after the sixteenth (which, at this point, looks rather likely) then I'm in.

Shastanis Althreduin · 11-14-2010, 07:39 PM

It definitely won't start before the sixteenth. And Lottie, I adore your location.

Excellent; thank you!; and I forgot to mention that I love the 'heir' concept.

Boromir88 · 11-14-2010, 07:47 PM

Wants in and wants this Heir.

It's times like this I remember why I love you so much. Cleolinda=<3.

Also, I'm totally in.

Nerwen · 11-14-2010, 09:56 PM

Count me in, as always, my king.

Welcome aboard! If you're new to the game, there's a sticky thread at the top of Middle-Earth Mirth that could be a big help.

Also, I'm the host of your first game so I get to nickname you. I'm thinking something along the lines of Rondi.

I like Elra, personally, but that's me. Of course if we don't use it I can just make a D&D character from it, so either way, really.

Also, hello, fresh meat. Glad to see more people on board!

<sweeping bow> Whatever you wish, O Great One.
:P

It is my first game, but I've read all the rules, and I followed the last game pretty closely. This should be fun!
