Some interaction between Haldis and Baru would be good

Quote from the RPG thread: Quote:
I know that Dwarves are long-living, but probably not that long. So I'm afraid you need to change that grand-father into something more appropriate. Sorry I didn't point that out in advance ... Edit: And the fun thing is, I didn't make this up for the sake of our Borin. I had already posted about the incident where a Dwarf named Borin saved her father's life, in an RPG on a different board a couple of years ago

I'd noticed that... in that Star RPG that I forgot what its right name is now of Rinkë's. I read that Borin saved Baru's dad. I was like, Hey!

Son of the Evening Star, you mean?
Yes, and even there I was just quoting it from somewhere else

Yes. I looked it up after I posted that and I didn't come back and change it.

I don't know. You never mentioned this before in your character profile, so I'd rather have your character age like ordinary Dwarves. A little stretching is fine, but four thousand years is just way to much. Why don't you just change it to ancestor instead of grandfather? The name Borin may have been passed on for several generations, along with the stories of their deeds, just like the name Durin did.

I might not post for a while because of Christmas vacation in the far south, but bring Quickleaf along if you go anywhere. Perhaps inspiration will come later too=)

Was going to get to posting something earlier and got caught up in...ahem...recent big events. Seeing as I am now a dad, it's going to be hard perhaps for a couple of weeks to get anything online-wise done. Just in the nick of time for Christmas! Sorry I've been so absent for a long time. Hopefully I'll make up for it soon. I'm planning on it but don't know if the planning will pan out as I'd intend. One things for sure, these are exciting times!!

Ohoo! Congratulations! Give my congratulations to the mother as well.
Don't worry about the absence and future absences. Recent parenthood totally excuses you.

Congratulations! Real Life totally trumps anything we can come up with in our created worlds!

Congrats to both you and the mother!
Heh, you'll be needing as much sleep as you can possibly sneak in from time to time, so absence from the game is totally a minor thing. Congrats again!

I haven't written about Baru entering a raft yet. Do we have any plan of who is where, and is there any preference to where she should go (if not all the active posters are already on one raft)?
