I'm hoping to get my save filled tonight. I'll probably have Keni notice Onli, if that's okay with Folwren and still good for Legate.

Good with me! Go right ahead. I meant to post this last night, but I don't know why I didn't.

And of course still good with me. For sure, go ahead! I'll wait to see what you are going to come up with.

Great! I just read it. I'm about to write and send you a PM...

Legate,
I'm going to let you post before me. If I didn't wait, I'd just have Kénan head home with Kéni in tow, and I think I need to give you a chance to post for Onli. If you can't post, or don't want to post, then just let me know and I can do so. -- Folwren

Your fill in was great, Kitanna; also, I really enjoyed your post Durelin. I have my post up for Tror.
I will wait until after Friday until I get a post up for Nali. Give Lommy a chance to get a post up for Ori.

All right. I will get some posting up during today.
I am not sure if Lommy will be able to post on today or tomorrow, I think it will depend on circumstances. But I'll let her know that she has obligations here

All right, posted for Onli now - it is completely upon you, Folwren (or Kit) if you wish to prolongate this debate or if you want to cut it short. Whatever is fine with me.
I will get a post for Lóni up soon, too - possibly tomorrow.

I'll be gone for the next two days on a weekend hiking trip. I'll get a response up Tror, if you have responded in that time, on monday, Durelin. When Korin is done with Tror, Legate, you may go ahead and have Onli approach Tror. Nisa can introduce him, or if Onli is feeling bold he can approach Tror on his own.
Also, if any of your characters want to go with Tror on the scouting party either speak up here or in the RPG. Gwath and Durelin, your characters sound like they might want a little action. How about it?

Errr I post tomorrow. But honestly, I will. I was just overcome by a flu and a massive cleaning operation today.

I am so very very sorry for abandoning the game like this without any warning. It's just that life was a bit hectic and I could not bring myself to concentrate enough to write something. Anyway, now that things are back to normal I'll try to be more active. I'll catch up with the game and have a post ready in a few days. Once again, a million of appologies, guys. I promise I'll give warning next time I decide to vanish

No hard feelings, Dimturiel The game is here for us to enjoy rather than to compel us (even though it sometimes does not seem like that, but that's from a large part just a question of attitude ). If you are going to continue posting, that's going to be great
On another note, I have posted for Lóni - I guess it's Náli's turn now, Groin. I think the situation turned to be very interesting.

Dimy, welcome back! I am very glad that you have returned, we need some of you good writers to come back. Basically I wanted to say what Legate has already said: just have fun with this RPG. I hope your return means that we will be hearing about Bain soon?

Hey, all. I started writing a post this evening, fully intending on posting it. But I got stuck half way through. I will try finishing it tomorrow. I apologize for the delay, especially to Kitanna.

Thanks for understanding, guys. And yes, you will be hearing from Bain quite soon - Friday at the latest, I think.

I posted, and did something cheesy (it's like Mulan, but not! oh Lord...). I imagine you want to wrap up Korin and Tror's conversation quickly, so of course feel free to do so. If you want we can collaborate to finish the conversation.
Also, sorry for being so slow about posting lately...school is just keeping me pretty busy... |

There, I've posted. Sorry it took me so long. It took me a while to figure out how to do it. Anyway, I did it.
Kitanna, I know it's not exactly what we had kind of discussed by PM. If you want it altered, let me know...PM me or something. -- Folwren

I'm looking forward to that post Dimy, and you save Kitanna. Glad to see that we have some upcoming posts.
Quote:
A future glance: Once Onli and Tror finish talking, all the characters in the council will be dispersed. Tror will take some characters in search of Oin, and Ori and Nali will go to the hall and gather the other players into the spirit of the upcoming fight. Does anyone have ideas on what the women should be doing while the men are repulsing the attacks?

Hi all. I'm very sorry I've been absent from the game for a while. Life's been throwing more than the usual amount of insanity at me lately. Will try to read up on everything I've missed and get a post up soonish, hopefully this weekend.

Durelin are doing a PM post for Tror and Korin. I'll see if I can wrap that up sometime soon. Nali is waiting on Ori, or Loni, to respond to his question: you're up Lommy! After Ori gives an explanation I'll send him back to gather the citizens. Let's see if we can get that done soon, I really want to make the other players, who haven't been involved with the council, more active now that the battle is a short time away.

I'll be posting soon. It's midterm week, so once my papers are well on the way I'll get my save filled.

Hey hey hey. Guess who posted. It's been too long, I'm sorry. I've had a busy couple of weeks...months.
I reckon I should probably introduce my second character pretty soon if I'm going to at all.

Gwath! welcome back to the land of the dead! Glad to see that some of the oldies are coming back; welcome back Ilya.
Your post was excellent Gwath I enjoyed it very much. Great ending to our post Durelin, you did a fabulous job with Korin! Quote:
I am out of town right now and have limited access to a computer; however, I may be able to slip something into the RPG sometime this week. Tror will definately respond to Frar; Nali is still waiting on Ori's response, whenever you are ready Lommy is fine with me. Onli will have to take the initiative now that Tror will be on the move, perhaps grab him for a quick word before he leaves. Legate, I know what Tror wants to say (I guess I better... I'm his writer after all) so if you and I want to do a PM post to sum things up that would be fine. I'll get back to y'all soon with a post. Glad to see that things are still looking bright!

Hehe, glad you liked the end there, Groin, and, of course, feel free to deal with Korin in the future as Tror sees fit.
I figured spitting on a dwarf's beard would be more insulting to him even than just spitting in his face... |

Oh golly, I didn't even notice that Korin spat on Tror's beard! I think I'd better edit my post - a stronger reaction is called for.
(Did you catch the Duke quote in my post, Groin? That was just for you.)

I did, I thought it was great, fitted in quite well! Unfortunately, I can't remember what movie of his it was from, but I could hear and picture him saying it after I read your quote!

Kitanna, how did midterms go? I had one this week and it made me almost sick, I was so scared while taking it. I can't stand not being sure of an A, and I am definitely not sure of an A for this test.
Anyway, now that the week is winding to close, does that mean you'll get a chance to fill your save soon? (I'm really annoying, aren't I?)

I've been terribly busy with final exams and still am - I have three of them next week - but I'll try to write for Ori as soon as possible.

I put up my post for Tror, Gwath. I described a lot of how Frar seemed to Tror, let me know if I overstepped my bounds! I was tempted to describe how Frar's warriors were armed but I thought that it would be better if Frar would describe it himself.

Glad to see it!
Having read it.....heh....I'm not used to being put into this sort of situation with my characters. Usually I play the characters in Keni's and Iari's place. Now maybe I'll appreciate other people's difficulties. Any suggestions anybody?

Sorry that I haven't posted in the RPG for a while. I am working on a PM post with Legate and Nali is waiting for Ori to respond (whenever you are ready Lommy). I suppose I could get something up for Nisa today or tomorrow, but I'm not promising anything.
Kenan could admit that he's wrong and grovel at Tror's feet!

But he wasn't wrong. That's the thing. Maybe he got a little over heated, but he wasn't wrong.
