Um, sure, if Ray is needed, I will gladly trot him off to the reception.
And as for me being a girl, Yep. I am, and a jockey as well. Jack-the-lad? I guess I am still a bit of a tomboy, yes. But I never said I was a man, but I didnt say I was a woman either...up to you really. Half orcs: Well, I didn't think that rape and consequent offspring were limited to one age alone...Or did they not have orcs but just goblins? I don't remember reading that...

CS, where ARE you? Edit: On the other hand, in LOTR the animals serving the Dark side are certainly mentioned. Aragorn said before Weathertop that not all birds etc are to be trusted, some may be spying for the nazgul. And while sailing down Andoun the fellowship was fearing black swans! I don't even mention wolves and werevolves. And yes, again, I believe this Gr... should be 100% orc. I thought Saruman was the first to make orcs interbreed with humans on a regular basis, which must have been shocking both for the West and Mordor. Sure cases of rape occured before it, so Gr... being a half breed is not impossible. Last edited by Gordis : 10-09-2005 at 03:45 PM. |

Willow, please, change this part! BTW, I loved your picture! You are an accomplished artist! I wish I could draw as well as you... And I really think that your character will add much to the conflict. Hope you are not offended by the nickname of "Storm-Crow". Quote:
However, I believe it will lead to confusion if three of us (UDU,Gor and Willow) will have to change their posts for that. I suggest that YOU, BB, past the whole race at the end of your first post where Bumble is dressing, and use your place-holders to describe how he meets with Udu and Mahtiliel (?) at the reception. Could you, please, do it BB? Cheers, Gor I REALLY LOVE bumbledore. Aiwendis also thinks he is endearing. |

But it is 1. a bit too revealing; 2. I have great difficulties to describe an animal and chat with an animal. I am not good at it. |

No, no, no... Shah, Lotesse - don't get me wrong... KING Valandil wants both Marty and Ray there, but it's OK if he doesn't get everything he wants all the time. He THOUGHT they both knew he expected them to go, but maybe there was a misunderstanding... or maybe they've been somewhat... distracted!
So - it's OK if Ray doesn't make it. Or if he gets there very, very late (it seems like they're spending a good deal of time galavanting around. Don't worry... this could all be for the best!

Not offended at all. It fits. And I did change it, I can change it more if it wasn't apparent though.

Well, HERE I AM!
Lotesse I am back with my poor battered Lilly. As you now play Penny, I hope you will help me to punish Khamul! And I almost swooned seeing that you were banned! Hope you will never quit us. BB, Gor, Udu, Willow, Val, Shah, Lotesse, Rian and Earniel! (Hope I didn't forget anyone...) Wonderful posts ye all! Reading this RPG is like reading a good book!

I know, Saruman was the first to regularly breed humans and orcs...But the supposed rarity of Gr fits all the more. Why else would viv even bother with him, certainly wouldnt waste time prjecting thought onto a full orc. And if i had written him as full orc, Ray woulda killed him out right.

BB - I love that whole race idea with old professor Bumbledore!! Absolutely brilliant! You really set a wonderful scene - I could feel the excitement in the air, the oldsters remembering previous races, the anticipation, the eagerness of the bettors, etc. Great!
Lotesse - I really liked your little mind-letter idea - kind of like a "you got mail!" thing for when the half-orc logged back into his brain! Very good imagining

Yes there could, and there were long long time ago. A queen was called Shah-banu.
Little King. Also meant Beloved King. My title is from a conversation I had with my father... He said, "You would have made a True Shah of Persia." So there you go.

Granted that she is no sorceress and is about to tempt fate once again....Well, I am interested to see what she is brewing up.

OK, Eärniel, they're in!
(earnestly hopes Eärniel will take it next! I'm such a newbie at these rpg's!!) (and I did tons of technical writing, but not much creative writing - suggestions welcomed!)

I have introduced 4 new characters - the family of Azrabel, the portly Governor of Tharbad. I felt we needed more NORMAL guests at the reception.
I am going to use MM's, Aiwendis' "friends" later on. And, of course, they are accepted to study COMMERCE. Old Guvernor and his pretty daughters Miriel and Malaphel are all PUBLIC. Feel free to use them! Last edited by Gordis : 10-10-2005 at 07:14 AM. |
