I think what is really needed is for everyone of us, nazgul, to post here in this discussion thread his FAKE NAME and FAKE STORY, that we will use in Tharbad, during the operation VAL HUNT
Here it is for LILLY- Lilaenwen The name is OK, Lily was not that important for people to remember her from the Second age. And my name is in Sindarin (or sounds like one) The FAKE story: Lilly is thirty-one, born in Rhun. She had a Duneadain Dad and an Easterling mom. Her father ( Aldacar) was born in Numenor, of course one of the Faithful . C He came to ME before the Downfall, dwelt for some time in Pelargir. During the Last Alliance, he fought at Dagorlad among Isildur´s troops, but got seriously wounded and had to retire. He went to settle in the East, near the Sea of Rhun and river Karnen and, having lost his wife and two sons in the Last Alliance war, he married again, taking a young Easterling woman. And had Lilly and one (two) older sons, I propose Khamul and Five. But I really need GW's and TD's OK for them being my FAKE brothers. Then, our parents died and the three of us, poor orphans, came to Tharbad, to complete our much neglected education. How is it?? |

well the brethren of the Butterflies have met in conclave ... and we say it's mighty fine!
Brother Big purple wings did vote against... but he's completely deaf and probably was guessing! sorry i haven't posted yet ... keep getting distracted - mainly trying to entice Lief over to the dark side! ... or at least to the studious side ... even the 'good' side would do... he has a reputation y'know! and what with Valandil and Earniel and the good ol' boys (and girls) especially the girls ... eh valandil? i.e. the crazy gang ... we should have a cracking rpg here... where is Gor though? heh Gor, it's now a serious RPG! They even made the whole university co-ed just for you y'know .... best all BB |

OK - anybody wanna play 'Marty' or 'Ray'? I think I worked up Dunedain sounding full names to go with their nicknames, but don't have them on me - and want to check my Tolkien language book on them anyway.
I picture them as not being so bright. Sort of like "Wayne and Garth" - or even "Bill and Ted"!

how about Anduril and last sane person? for R&G or W&G?
Lotesse could you do the honours and PM them for me? They both are chums of yours and anyway, i'm very shy of private messaging: almost as much as CS! CS, liked your 2 posts very much ... didn't GOR say we could take physical form? it may be a problem if we have no reflection .... though plenty of rpg possibilites too ... Can you hunt her down, for us? P.S. Valandil are Marty and Ray good looking? Would lilly be interested in a little tate a tate? ... especially if they are not the brightest .... and close to the king? Watch your ankles btw ... and your bottom! ...also don't sit on anything soft and beautiful ... well not anything that flies anyway .. there'll be plenty of time for other soft and beautiful places to rest later i'm sure... and HECK! better watch most of your crown jewels too: there are some randy women and elves out there! |

O.K., I invited them. I hope they come on board; it really would get fun if they came! They'd be perfect as Rosencrantz/Marty and Guildenstern/Ray.
If they join, for sure I'll post story here.

Anyway, while we have no players for R&G I suggest Val should play for them, aren't they his friends? Quote:

Yes, that was Gor's idea of using 9 rings for shifting from one mode to another. But no reflection was my idea. It was from some old tales I remember (was it Hoffman?) that spooks do not reflect in mirrors. Gor is around, at least Lotesse thinks so. Perhaps she will appear soon... BUT WHERE IS OUR WITCH-KING? WHERE ARE TD AND ESPECIALLY GW??? Quote:

EDIT: re: Lief
maybe it only au-revoir? anyway he was looking at the thread just now .... a positive sign. dastardly good heh? Even more tempting. still it's a serious rpg ... even with me around! well serious with some frivoilty let us say ... that's what we'll tell him anyway! us butterflies know a thing or two about catching things in nets y'know ... mainly how to avoid them but that's not the point ... and the wanton voluptous allure of CS combined with your Elven hair ... (god help us if Anduril DOES join ) and Valandil's nobility and the shakespearian element... and Gor's very valued input, and Lotesse's unique style .... and TD's ventriloquism ... combined with the Witch King's unpredictability and Sir grey's big heart ... how could he refuse? (apologies if i missed anyone out...) if it's plot twists he wants... he'll be right at home here Last edited by Butterbeer : 09-05-2005 at 06:58 PM. |

well yeah, i thought Anduril was to be a nazgul too: he still can by Morgoth! ... but i think valandil wants some characters to bounce off? maybe in the meantime we could all pitch in till they have their players? it'd be great if Anduril and last Sane came in though: even posting occasionally. I know not where the witch King is but we look forward to seeing HIS cover story and appraoch ... TD i guess is planning out his role and character? maybe a character with many accents? maybe he could teach languages and gain a position at the university? Sir Grey i am sure will ride in on his charger as the Good knight Errant Sir Braveheart ... some time soon ... i think he is just looking for a good opening? |

Thanks, GW and TD!
Not half-brothers but FAKE brothers... I think, TD, you could have followed Val, so now Khamul can play the knight-errant saving the King and becoming his friend. |

well my last post wasn't totally serious ... i will be happy to edit that if you think it too odd ... but it does not matter what our characters are ... Old JRRT had bombadil and talking foxes and what not to boot.
It can be serious in terms of being good and well played ... character driven and intelligent .. and occasionally funny, why not? besides i am all for being a bit more serious: if i play with 'dastardly good' Lief i shall have to try and tone down some of the stuff ... anyway when Gor returns she'll add additional substance and help keep it serious!

I am really around and reading the thread. Excellent posts, all of you.
And it is serious enough for me. But I can't yet let my Gor enter the game. It will be silly not to let Lilly try her best first. So I assume Gor is not yet in Tharbad, as is Viv. BTW, speaking of nazgul tactics, I believe it was strange to send to Tharbad the Easterlings, leaving Numenoreans behind. But what is done is done. I would like to know what the Witch-King plans. Gor and Viv should work with him, as one family. As well as our other Numenoreans. So we wait. Easterlings first. I liked Lilly's BIO. It might work. Only I suggest to make her late father serve in Anarion's army, not Isildur's, as in Val's entourage there are likely to be those that should have remembered him. And I have a warning for all: neither of us is supposed to be old enough to remember Numenor. Right? Invisibility is handled well by CS, only we will have a pain in the neck problem with mirrors. Stupid mortals place them everywhere...Are you sure it was wize, CS? As it is, nobody can recognise us but Calaquendi Elves, (like Glorfindel and probably Gildor and maybe Erestor?) and the bearers of the Three (Cirdan, Elrond, Galadriel) and the dwarves with Seven. But neither of those is likely to come to Tharbad. Wizards are not yet arrived. , so BB, you better eraze your mention of "rhadaghasthie", if you are not a prophetic undead butterfly Perhaps I will post something, but not yet about Gordis. I advise you to do the same, Lotesse. There is a nice barroom brawl brewing... |

OK - made my 'daily post' (I'll try that as a goal for now)
About the "vision" that Val had in his dream... it could just stay a vision, but if anyone wants to play another female Elf of Nin-in-Eilph (either devoted subject or renegade) - this might be an opportunity. Perhaps she was what Val saw when he first spurred his horse on - and maybe then decided to appear to him in his dream... or draw him into a semi-concious state, if she could do that... (or was Gordy or someone hanging out here in the swamp?) Gordis: maybe the various Nazgul are not being 'sent' or deciding who goes first. Perhaps each is finding out bits of information independently and heading for Tharbad. This could well be their first activity since Sauron fell almost 50 years before. And Numenor's fall wasn't THAT long ago... for a Numenorean - I think 171 years, so Lily's "story" is plausible. That was a good suggestion about Anarion though.

As for the Downfall, I meant that for us, nazgul posing as young men/girls, students of the University, it would be a give-away to start reminiscing of the glory of Numenor, although many of us love to do it. Excellent post, Val! |

And... thank you! Pssst... what's with making Marty one-eyed!? And I don't think either of them would be experienced warriors - more like priveledged upper-class upstarts of Arnor, with perhaps some warrior training, but hey... there ARE no more wars now... remember? We're just gonna have peace from here on out... RIGHT? (Now... a couple of Valandil's GUARDS maybe... )
