The Mc Beastie beater!
Actually growing marrow - as in bone marrow- is creepy and also therefore kinda cool (for the Nazgul chef - as gor would probably call him
 )- but i was of course reffering to marrows...Gor  : you mean after all those in-depth and high-brow discussions on the Witch Kings's (later) marrow-growing contests: YOU NEVER KNEW WHAT A MARROW WAS?????  well TD is away till thurs then poss off again Fri as he posted .... though he said he may be able to get some access possibly ... what are "squashes"? I always thought they were pumpkins or similiar? you guys get courgettes? beutiful courgettes lighty butter fried in the morning? .... anyway if you let em' go you get great big marrows ... like leeks and other things oin the north (of england) there are competetitions etc ... it was confectured many moons ago that The then (later of course) Witch king of Angmar was a keen horticulturalist .... now to be fair this is not 100% canon ... the jury is out and Michael martinez has not even discussed this important angle on the nazgul ... however i digress .... from what i am not quite sure, but usually it is a fair guess to say " i digress' ... ... mmm ... OK i'm just going to leave it at digress... and assume i was going to say something relevant, OK?  best, BB ps ... heh i'll post Rian ...not got a clue WHAT yet ... but still nothing much new there!

Hmmm... everyone assumes my mysterious black-cloaked guy is a Nazgul already!
And yes, he is. But I have not given any thought to him as yet. I'm still stuck at the name part. A little help, guys?? I'm just as mystified as the rest as to who he is, but thanks to all for being so appreciative of my writing.  And Gordis, I don't know where Jas lives. At first, I thought in the Professor's apartments with the Chancellor's Palace, but now I see there's a seperate building for the Wine Department, and I think Jas would like to live close to his little bottles. So can that be arranged somehow? And as for the directions, thanks for clearing that up. I was trying to follow the map, but I was still rather unsure. Good thing Jas was drunk, providing a good excuse for his wrong directions! Rian, I liked your last 2 posts loads, looking forward to the rest of it! By the way, do I have to post a bio for my characters, if so, where?

ahhh, but you'd need the mysterious masked cartographer for that ...
 generally, take a street, any old street, hang a few lefts and you'll see THE STREET .... ettiquette (not universal to be fair ) says you should say hello to the watch ... after that you're on your own ....thread btw is called calling all nazgul info thread or somesuch .... it's in rpg! so, it wasn't the landlord of the red-herring then? Names? Theres gothmog and ... er ... the other one! best BB (the only yet slightly drunk - just signed a biggie off - which what with illness and other commitments buidling up i am feeling very good and somewhat - er - playful? - about just now!) did i digress again? ... hope so! |

I suppose you could always just keep your nazgul's name as The Other One.

Growing bone marrow is deLICIOUSly evil & beautifully creepy!! Or just Italian. Anybody love Osso Bucco as much as I do? Who would grow bone marrow... the Nazgul (was it Gothmog? Gordis & CS, which Nazzie was it who was so into the creepy medicine & torture expertise? THAT guy would try & grow bone marrow, I bet!
)

GW, that WAS cute about wolves wolfing! Now, Lomi's supposed to be with Viv - I guess they can be together right now, since Viv's out & about this night and needs to meet the wolves anyway, hmmm... maybe she can have brought the rodents with Lomi's help as a welcome present to the wolves.
I still don't know what to post for tonight in Tharbad. The next day will be the horse race, but I'm kind of waiting to see what happens at Orrodel before going to the race, because eventually Viv needs to be able to go home and take a bath and change. She's out all night long, no sleep, still wearing her riding outfit from the previous morning. TD, CS, Udu; when are you guys going to finish your Nazgul fight and maid-disposal?

The two still missing were 1. Number Three that was called Gothmog in the Fellowhip RPG. He was a nasty cruel character, dumping poor nz girls in a RIVER just for fun! Also, if I remember correctly, he had spilled Lilly's guts in a fight. She needed sewing up, poor girl! 2. Number Four was called Mordacar (Mor) and he was a very nice guy, Vivvie's beau. But you can invite your OWN name and character! Ask Udu for numbers in Black Speech. He has listed them once on this thread, I think. |

Righ on, Beautiful Boomerang is back!
That was a great post, BB - and don't forget, Viv's out and about tonight hanging with the animals, so maybe Boomerang can see her when he goes to find Lomi... now I gotta go, only 4 minutes left on this computer  Ah well; see you all later on perhaps!

Normally he should post an answer to Udu. Or we can continue to fight... Perhaps Udu could post something along the fight lines? Actually Khamul was sure he can best all three of them as "rats in a trap" I would like some Lilly's torture... Re: NAZGUL doctor was former Eight, Haradmurath?? - creepy guy. Not at all like Udu. And not at all like Penny, who is the present doctor. I would be glad to have a creepy leech again... Eh, Serenoli? Edit WAUU, BOOM is Back! Great!

BB - "truly, .... it was in the air!" LOL!
I'm glad to see Beautiful back!Lotesse- - "maid-disposal" - heehee! Poor girl!! Will she end up as wolf-kibble? Will she be healed and mind-erased? Inquiring minds want to know! (btw, Rian will be gone all night - we elves don't need to sleep, after all - so take your time! Just please be done by dawn!) CS - ugh, that #3 sounds creepy! Well, we need some more baddies, since we just got 2 more elves in the mix! And of course any elf of Gondolin would HATE anyone named Gothmog, 'cause that's the name of the Balrog that killed "Ecthelion, lord of the Fountain, fairest of the Noldoli" (from The Fall of Gondolin in BoLT II), as Ecthelion killed him! *sob* *hands kleenex to Earniel*

“TD, CS, Udu; when are you guys going to finish your Nazgul fight and maid-disposal?” - Lotesse
Lotesse, Penny, Lilly and Udu have assumed a defensive position against Khamûl to protect themselves from him. Since Khamûl was the initiator of the disturbance, the other three are waiting to see what his intents are now in regards to fighting. They also would be, logically, concentrating their wills on that and any possible spells that Khamûl might throw at them. Without TD to make the next move, there is not much that they can do. Therefore, I do not feel right about posting anything that changes its balance until we hear TD’s response. “The big question is TD, is he going to post? Is he able to? Normally he should post an answer to Udu. Or we can continue to fight... Perhaps Udu could post something along the fight lines? Actually Khamul was sure he can best all three of them as "rats in a trap" I would like some Lilly's torture...” - CS I might post a short response, but even that would require TD to follow up on it. “Re: NAZGUL doctor was former Eight, Haradmurath?? - creepy guy. Not at all like Udu.” - CS Udu neither is creepy nor does weird experiments. As a matter of fact, he might be a good drinking companion in a tavern. “But you can invite your OWN name and character! Ask Udu for numbers in Black Speech. He has listed them once on this thread, I think.” - CS Tolkien did not give us the names of any Nazgûl except Khamûl, but the Orcs referred to the Dark Captain as “Number One.” Here is a list of the numbers 1-10 in LOS/Shadowlandian Black Speech: 1....Ash 2....Krul 3....Gakh 4....Zag 5....Krak 6....Rut 7....Udu 8....Skri 9....Krith 10....Gal The complete Shadowlandian wordlist and grammar rules can be found at http://www.thelandofshadow.com/mordo...ch/speech1.htm A wordlist of words from other dialects (MERP, Horngoth, Svartiska, and others) compiled by Lugrekh of the Red Hand Orcs can be found at: http://www.geocities.com/thequietwra...owordlist.html The latter is one of my sites. Any number of words can be used for names, such as Hûrûrz, “brave,” or Ikhûrz, “forceful,” etc. |

Rian
I shall hopefully keep this short and concise, as it deserves ... now, i read your last post over many breaks of 'lost' ..which BTW i am enjoying and analyzing (YET ENJOYING: thus my true resect for it) .... one thing that has very vividly sprung to mind (and i mean this seriously) is from reading your last post - one vivid thing sprung to mind: I, think JRRT would be proud to read it: that his legacy carried on: that others in his spirit and enthusiasam and dedication for his works could carry on and flesh out his tales ... and to all here ... sometimes we perhaps forget how we honour Jrrt with our mix of creativity, canon knowledge, AU respected play and sheer enthusisam mixed headily with rpg inventiveness and creative freedom to explore ... very much in truth to how JRR created his writings ... how,we (at least to my mind) would so please him were he here to read it .... now for me, i think, JRRT would both laugh, appreciate and enjoy his legacy here .... as a truly enduring and worth-while legacy ... well, that is my take on JRRT .... and for me, i wil defend it till the earths are sundered ... but my main thought was just this .... i felt that you had wonderfully encapsulated in first-person detail some of the strenghts of Tolkiens's writings .... what more can i say? It is so easy to forget what we do ... but i think the respect you show and skill in adding to JT's writing could easily be over-looked ... why? ... because this is some rpg ?? NAY! for me, it is all valid: it does not need to have some publicist seeking MMartinis to make it of value: nay, again ... one thing is seen clearly: whatever anyone may care to think: i think JRRT would read and enjoy our little addition to his world. and why? simply and purely: because we honour him and in the spirit of the thing both keep it alive and growing, both reasonably true and developing: but also light-heartedly in spirit with tolkien's writings (in the raw form) that he would recgognize! ... remember he had no discussion thread as such ... but i feel sure he would have very much enjoyed this one! so, in short, well written, i think JRRT would be happy indeed that we all take such care to read and add to his world! best BB |

UDU CS, et al
lets be very clear here: TD has psoted clearly he will be away till thurs .. possiby then away from fri with maybe some possible access ... are you not english? do you not understand the language? ... (forgive me i mean no offence or whatever ... but TD is ... am i the only one who can understand what he clearly writes????) whatever ... but i would seriously suggest for the sake of our RPG you continuie posting while TD is away .... we will of course respect the player's law ... and should TD require anything editing take it from there: but STALLING the whole game, to me, is NOT an option that TD would want .... correct me TD if i am wrong on this ... (though i doubt it!).... whew! ... so ... carry on posting! i guess here, of course, but i do not think TD wanted to stall things whatsoever ... SO: CARRY ON AS USUAL! and let others have the opportunity to join in! very best all BB |

I enjoyed reading your commentary. Rian's posts were outstanding. CS, Lotesse, Gordis, TD and any interested - Udu has just posted. Anything I have written can be changed or modified so just feel free to speak up if you want something changed. |
