When/If we open the Mirkwood RPG there will be a new thread started! Hopefully, not too much longer...
I've got a broken computer and no access from work, so I'm checking in on a friend's PC. I hope to return soon!

Well, I like writing all this Bulwer-Lytton prose, but I didn't want to take someone else's character and play it for him or her.
It looks like I am going to have to write my own rescue. I thought I was being too heroic already, but now I have to save myself and everyone else too. In 24 hours, I WILL post again, if no one else has... Thenamir of Rohan Frustrated Wannabe Author

I should be back soon! Don't worry about the pace. As long as a few stay with it, it will work out. I really hope it will make entertaining reading when finished one day.

I would post but I am unconcious at the moment. If somone would be so obliged as to wake me up I would be happy to post. Or maybe I can be awakened by the cries of thenamir calling for help.

ah, leighlei, just a slight error in ure post (the rest of it is good), firstly, my name in the rpg is gurthden, and secondly, u dont currently no my name, because we havent been introduced. so u could just change rinurion 2 somthing like the man, or the warrior of the mark, or whatever.
thanx a lot Rinurion

i knew it was a good idea 2 double that 24hours [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img].
Hmmm... druwen, i dont think that u will b able 2 get into this rpg as an elf 4 some reason. however, there is a mirkwood elf rpg being started, and u could either b a mirkwood elf in it, or a high elf, and come in a bit later. oh, and bye the way, that was a very nice little twist u put on this story gil. and u thenamir. thanx Rinurion p.s. did u ever get that message i sent u about the mirkwood rpg gil?

Thanks Rinurion. Glad someone likes my poor prose. And I do not put any 'twists' in the story that Gil does not approve -- I just write 'em, and he edits 'em to suit the needs of the story. He is the mover and the shaker in this RPG.
And I will second Rinurion's sentiments about Gil -- good work, thanks for the effort, and keep it it up! Things are getting interesting!

Where could i find the mirkwood rpg? I just joined the barrow downs and I would certainly enjoy being the elf I am in an RPG. Unless of course you guys could fit me in a little better than you could the other guy. I maybe could come in a little later after you maybe stop at a village to recover or something like that. I don't know exactly where you all are now, I just know someone is unconsious and its during a battle. please let me know [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Um, I dunno, lots happens in my periodic absences. I guess Gil will have to answer that!

Thank you Dwarin! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] This RPG has gotten really good, it's the best one I'm taking part in right now. I suppose you guys want Sam? I'll try sending him over again, last time I tried he was busy.

My computer is up, but I've been out with overtime work, home renovations, and too tired-to-care!
I'm so sorry! But I'll try to schedule more regular appearances now. I promise a MIRKWOOD RPG soon!!!!!

Hi guys. I'd really love to join an RPG. You guys are so far along in the Rohan one, I wasn't sure if it would be ok for me to join. I'd love to join the Mirkwood one, though. I'd be an elf maiden from Lorien (or perhaps Mirkwood, if that makes more sense in the context of that RPG) Any idea how soon is soon for the Mirkwood RPG?

Just Kidding! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] You'll have to ask him.

VERY soon!
Which could mean only weeks! I'm just kidding. But events and lifestyle changes have indeed slowed me down. Can't say when the situation will be more stable. Nevertheless, I am composing the lead post and still working the kinks out of my scenario. Get ready!

I think that it is Theodred's turn to post, since his character, Taradan, is the leader of our little fellowship.

If you have something to post, go for it! You don't necessarily have to wait for laggards!

Thanks for the assist -- things were moving a bit slowly. If you can clue me in as to what to expect with the map (at my barrowdowns e-mail address), I'll write it in right away. If we have to wing it, that'll be good to know too.

***Attention***
LEIGHLEI, SHIELDMAIDEN, THEODRED, RINURION, TAR PALANTIR -- The Rohan RPG is DYING!!! I don't know about all of you, but I REFUSE to let this GREAT RPG go the way of the ERIADOR RPG which just plain DIED. A good story was going on, and it just DIED for lack of PARTICIPATION!!! Dwarin and I have been carrying the story for the last few posts. GET POSTING!! SAVE THE ROHAN RPG!

Ok, that was probably the best laugh i have had all week. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img].
But anyway, i have come up with an idea to stall the dunelings... It involves faking a message from saruman... a risky business, but one that has the possibility of stalling the dunelings for a small period of time. We get kaloherns horse, and a member of our party that the dunelings have not encountered, and give the dunelings a message to turn back, while going for the ruined city. That should at least catch us up. I know that this will need some complicating, but ill leave that to people who would do it better than me [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]. Well, theres the bare bones... as soon as i get some feedback ill start working on the post. Oh, and i think the reason that everyones suddenly stopped posting is the mirkwood rpg. once thatrs started properly, this one should pick up again. Thanx Rinurion

I don't know which post I like better -- shieldmaiden's or Rinurion's!
Good idea Rinurion. Nice work! Sorry I could not come up with an idea on my own, but that's what teamwork is all about, right? Go ahead and write the post. It's good to see some people paying attention!

Getting a life may be overrated, but I guess it's better than the alternative!

First one to see Sharku, tell him it's time for a Storwolos post. He can begin with seeing the forest fire across his path and changing direction. This may put him on his guard.
