A Modern Middle-Earth
Well, it is just a concept I like alot. In today's society what if there were elves and dwarves and hobbits? What if the were ever so clever, and hid among today's people? What would happen?
Story line: In the west (of America) scientists unearthed a grand finding, a creature petrified, very ugly and seemingly mythological, in it's hand was a beautifully crafted ring. The lead scientist, Lauryn Kale, knew immediately that it would be valuable. She hid it in a grand museum. Now the old creatures of Middle-Earth, the ones who remember and the ones who were told are greatly uneasy for in today's times, with the One Ring, it would be infinitely possible for total genocide, if the owner of the ring so chose. There societies, units and groups in countries (very well orginized) are meeting now in London to figure out how to get the ring back, and how to destroy it. Note to the Reader: THis is my first attempt at an rpg, but I think it is an interesting topic, but if it fails I know why. Character I will be playing most- Lisse Elf Older than the ages past A very fun loving elf who has a terrible time being serious. Des. Blonde Blue 5'7 Modern clothes, keeps hair long to cover her ears, originally born in the jungles of Africa. Please join me on an adventure. (I sound like the Carnival cruise commercials.)

No, I don't think I will, Zavron. Unless when asked or when it goes off topic. The storyline is simular to that of the 'Return of the Ring' RPG but not identical. I see no reason for closing it.

I saw an old friend get off the boat. "hello! I was waiting all morning! Your boat must have had some problems! Come you must tell me everything!" In my mind I said <Aaye, Biredon! What do you make of this business!> I steered him into a small cafe, where we sat in a corner.

I did not feel safe in here so I said: <We cannot speak of it now! We must wait for the counsel.>
