Wow Curu! You've been rounding up your herd, I see.

Welcome Varnafindë!

Thank you!

Is there a tea house here as well?
I suppose I could do with a cup of tea ...

Btw, is this where I tell Varna's history? Or is there a fan fiction or RPG where it would be more suitable?

I already know about Curufin and Son of the Evening Star - as Varna's father knows Elrond from childhood (Elrond's ), I'm going to play him there ...

There's the Teacup for a cup of tea. Come on over and I'll make you one

There's a separate RPG section if that's what you're asking. This general section is mostly that, with all sorts of topics.

Welcome all. I hope you'll have a nice time here on the 'moot.

Say Curufin, how many people did you tell about this board exactly?

Did anyone else notice that all Rinkës friends have names with ümlauts?

EDIT: that ümlaut looks like it is in the wrong place... >_<

And even if her screen name doesn't have an umlaut, you give her new one.

Thank you, Aika and Curufin!

I won't tell Varna's history here - her father's history will be told in "Son of the Evening Star" . If suitable, her own story could be told in one of those RPGs as well - there's a Narnia / LotR crossover story there!

Well, she didn't want to call me 'Curu' because of 'Curubethion' so I told her she could call me by any version of my mother name - Atarinkë - that she wanted, and there you have it.

Okay, I can go to Rinke. No funny punctuations, though.

Hehe, as long as I keep my keyboard to Dutch, it's no problem getting the umlaut.
And Rinkë, I hoped you did *hug*
