In fact, I think I've got just the right scene to enter your character, if I may. Don't post in the game thread just yet, but why don't you give us a short description of your character here?

All-right. His name is Borin the emerald-crusher. He is a Dwarven wizzard. He carries an axe crafted in the fires of a dragons breath and wrapped in mithril, and two one-handed crossbows. And he rides a warg

***Earniel*** · 03-27-2008, 03:12 PM

A Dwarf on a warg, that's a new one.

I'm not too sure about him being a wizard, though. Dwarves in Middle-earth didn't have wizards, really.

Don't worry, I'll tell you right away when the opening presents itself. It should be soon.

Curufin · 03-27-2008, 03:17 PM

I'd like to try, if I may, and if there's a place for me?

Curufin · 03-27-2008, 05:47 PM

Alrighty, here's my character.

Abasi is an Avari elf. He was born sometime in the middle of the Second Age, but he's not sure on the date in the Sindarin calendar. While he speaks Sindarin and is able to read a little Quenya, the language he speaks and the customs he practices are far sundered from those of the Sindar or the Noldor currently in Middle-earth. He's been living in the woods near Mirkwood since his small community scattered after coming under attack far in the East during the War of the Ring. He's a rather distrustful, bitter sort, much preferring to remain in his woodland home than have any sort of contact with outside people. He never went over to Sauron, but he thinks mainly of himself and his own good over that of others...

**Mari** · 03-27-2008, 05:48 PM

Sounds like we will get along just fine

The last sane person · 03-27-2008, 05:53 PM

Kinda makes me ask though Curu, why on EARTH would Abasi be coming along, since this has little to no personal gain for him and will risk quite a bit of damage to his person. That and he has to travel as part of a team.

feawen · 03-27-2008, 06:29 PM

well really the only reason most of us are going is because gandalf asked us!

oh i like a challange! thats it he will be Namis friend by the end of it!

Curufin · 03-28-2008, 02:30 AM

Good luck with that.

***Earniel*** · 04-03-2008, 03:57 PM

That'll serve me right for being so slow.

I prepare for a nightly adventure and when I come around to start it, the night's over! So another night it is. Anyway, ladies and gentlemen, I present you the Mirkwood spiders, a rather under-used band of villains in Middle-earth RPG's, if you ask me.

Will anyone wake, I wonder, before everyone's on the spider's menu and this adventure turns out to be remarkable short?

Curufin · 03-27-2008, 05:56 PM

Well, as I told our wise Threadmaster via PM's, he's a loner more due to situation than to natural inclination. He could be convinced quite easily to go along with them, especially if he could be useful.

That said, he's going to be rather taciturn and unpleasant, so don't expect to make friends with him right away. He's a bit prickly.

me9996 · 04-05-2008, 01:08 PM

I'd join in this spider battle but Ferrin is all spun up in spider silk.
Maybe if Ferrin can get his sword loose...

feawen · 04-05-2008, 03:37 PM

oh i do love a good arguement!

but a challange is a challage! Nami will have befriended Abasi by the end of this!

The last sane person · 04-03-2008, 07:36 PM

I'll awaken Carnehil after I finish my spanish paper.

Acalewia · 04-03-2008, 08:10 PM

I've got Aelfwine up with Nami. We should be up for some fun now

Curufin · 04-05-2008, 03:43 PM

As I said, good luck! He's not the nicest of characters.

feawen · 04-05-2008, 03:45 PM

and Namis not your tipical we love you all elf! oh no! she got the rest of her long life to get him to befriend her! Lets talk about how you feel Abasi! lol

***Earniel*** · 04-07-2008, 06:24 AM

My my, lots of posts all of a sudden, I barely can keep up.

And we've got two new characters introduced. Curufin's character Abasi, and the dwarf from the spider's nest is Sasquatch's character.

I suggest to wait a few more days to give the players who haven't had time to enter the fight (and those who wish to do so) a chance to write a battle-scene. Then we'll retreat back in our camp, grap our luggage and mounts and high-tail out of this mess. So if you still want to beat up some spiders, now's your chance.

Curufin · 04-08-2008, 05:43 AM

Abasi's going to pout now.
