Dunno. I'm kinda lost at the moment and going with the flow. No fearful visions for Ellysa for now

I must say I do really miss our reluctant elven couple... but they are both not coming back to play for a while.
It would be more fun if there were more characters to converse with.

I'm afraid I haven't been conversing very actively - I've given answers (sometimes substantial ones

) when spoken to, but not much more than that.

So if I speak better when spoken to, do speak to me

Actual, that's not even only a mental picture for me. I can recommend one or two nature documentaries with snake breeding gatherings.

No fear, if I can get a post up tomorrow, you all will find something to do.

Yeah, pity.

I hung out with a lot of guys in High School. I think they rubbed off on me

Don't feel to bad, Ferrus has bearly said anything this entire trip, other than talking about there being "15 elves" in the party, frankly I stopped counting elves after about five or six so I have no idea of Ferrus's accuracy on this matter

***Earniel*** · 03-07-2009, 02:32 PM

Nice to see you again, Me9996.

And I see Orithil has snuck back in for a post or two as well.

As promised: RAIDERS!

And us on a couple of rafts, this could be fun. A reminder to people with armour, watch your feet, falling in may not be such a good idea.

***Varnafindë*** · 03-07-2009, 07:34 PM

Hey, here's a chance for Baru to make herself useful!

She's a skilled archer - I don't know enough about archery to describe it with much skill, though. So don't expect any detailed description of the technical intricacies

Oh, btw, the Ainon of Rivendell that she mentions, is indeed the Ainon you may know from Journeys

Coffeehouse · 03-07-2009, 07:37 PM

Lad.. trekk tilbake.. sikt.. slipp.. *swoosh!*

Også legger du bare til en masse annet ved siden av, og vips så har du interessant slossing

***Varnafindë*** · 03-07-2009, 07:56 PM

Det er vel det grunnleggende, ja - takk skal du ha!
Men så var det alt det masse andre også da ...

Thank you!

Coffeehouse · 03-07-2009, 08:11 PM

Hehe.. yep skjønte det, fleipa litt =)

Som et tips: Det jeg pleier å gjøre iallfall er beskrive litt enkle bevegelser, men med drama og spesielt hva min karakter tenker imens han gjør det han gjør. Hva han ser og hører, og så pleier jeg å legge til beskrivelser av ting i omgivelsene som kan påvirke slossingen hans.

De færreste her har vel noe særlig våpenerfaring, jeg har iallfall ingen

, men jeg syntes det er kulere å lese hva andres karakterer tenker om sine egne handlinger enn akkuratt handlingene selv. Noen liker å påpeke at det sa *slash!* eller *whiiiiiin* men det blir banalt i lengden syntes nå jeg

***Earniel*** · 03-08-2009, 06:09 AM

Hey hey, speak something other people can understand too or I'll refer you two to the Language Thread.

Funny, though, didn't expect so many of you to carry bows as well.

We moved on to PMs

I guess I mentioned Baru's bow and arrows in her bio, but she hasn't had any need for it so far, so it hasn't been mentioned in the story. She does not wield a sword, though - her father wasn't much of a swordsman (which, again, is being covered in Journeys

), and thus didn't teach her.

Edit:
Baru, always the philosopher

The Dunlending ambush she's mentioning, has been described in an RP at a different board.

Coffeehouse · 03-08-2009, 08:12 AM

Lol well for now I hope she focuses on putting arrows into the pursuers above reminiscing about elder days

Though I see you seemed to have injured one at least=)

In any case it's only natural that most in the company are using bows.. The majority are elves

and humans aren't exactly strangers to it neither. The only creature I'd be really amazed to see wielding a bow is Borin

My longbow is prolly at least four times the length of his arm

Acalewia · 03-08-2009, 07:23 PM

I mentioned in Aelfwine's bio she uses a bow and she used it and I believe her knife during the spider attack.

Is my archery teacher satisfied?

Willow Oran · 03-09-2009, 12:44 AM

No bows for the Beornings in the party. I've got Truor using a sling-shot, and as for Haldis, she's got other distance weapons even limited as she is at the moment...

***Earniel*** · 03-09-2009, 05:44 AM

I wonder, did Haldis have Granny Weatherwax as her teacher when she was young?

Acalewia · 03-09-2009, 01:03 PM

Who is on what raft?

Maybe... her author certainly did.

Wonderful stuff! Such depth of skill

Aiming and shooting! Who would have thought it possible?

Irony aside, I like the cold pleasure Baru feels, it's a worthy combat cynicism of a royal-blooded Elf-lady

Like my lil sister has published on her bedroom-door: "Trespassers will be shot. Survivors will be shot again"
