ROHAN DISCUSSION - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

***Gilthalion*** · 01-02-2002, 11:12 AM

Just got back from reading the latest posts.

Hope no one gets mad, but I've had to delete a couple of them.

Tanmarion: the name of the elf is ELWOOD. He was with Thenamir when they were spying on Storwolos' Dunlenders.

Prince of Dol Amroth: sorry, but we won't have any rangers involved to a great extent in this story. There may be a ranger or two later, if the party takes the South Road to Tharbad as they seek the elvish ruins, but not here and now in Dunland.

The White Council can NOT become aware of the treachery of Saruman as a result of this story. A letter to Lothlorien, or intelligence gathered by the Rangers, or a herald from Rivendell would surely spill the beans.

At this time, Isengard is home to Saruman the White, the leader of the White Council and head of the order of Wizards. It is filled with trees and birds and is not yet teaming with orcs and wolves and half orcs. Only Rohan is aware that something is wrong on their border and this is the first inkling that ANYONE has that Saruman is involved.

There will be heroics and adventure, perhaps you will even thwart Saruman's latest scheme. Don't count on it.

If only one of you returns alive to bring word back to Theodred, you can count that a great victory.

You are all meddling in the affairs of the most powerful wizard in Middle-earth. He is more subtle and quick to anger than any other! You are, furthermore, far from any help, and seeking the lost ruins of an elvish city, hoping to follow a cunning warrior and his band of wild Dunlenders through the wilderness.

Do they know where they are going? Can you follow them? If you lose them, can you find them?

And what happens if you do?
