Neglect! Neglect! It's your birthday, they won't mind :)

Happy birthday love. Have fun and be safe. We can wait for Lola.

Happy Birthday Lo- er, Jenny.
That was interesting, Form. And the spelling mistake means a lot of editting on my behalf. :rolleyes: |
I can't believe I missed this...blame the fever.
Happy (belated) birthday, Jenny! :) |
For the Gondorians
I'm reproducing Form's PM here. Seeing as this is a planning thread, we may as well use it as such, rather than going through the slightly more labour intensive process of PMing one another whenever we have an idea.

1) We could risk anakronism by trying to contact people from Mordor who were in correspondence with Dracomir. This is not advantageous as it wil probably lead to assignment. 2) We can't snoop around as we are being kept under guard. 3) The fact that he is a wizard is a good one to use against him. But only if we can relate the news to his father who is in faraway Gondor. Used as a threat, it will not be immediately effective. Nor would it be effective in the long term, as he could get Alli to prevent all messages going into Gondor. 4) If Mardil didn't trust Dracomir, he wouldn't have sent him. One of us could bring this up to ease the conversation away from Malfoidacil, demoting him from a major threat to a minor worry. In fact, if you guys can't think of anything in then next day, I think I'll do that. My next post will consist of Angawen angrily approaching the Mordorian guards and demanding to consult Alli as she has rather rudely not given us any details about the current situation. Angawen will attempt to clarify the situation in the minds of the Gondorians. The post will start in Bearugard's room and culminate in a verbal confrontation with the guards. I had planned on leaving Bearugard and Hyarmanwë lingering in the background in the hall whilst Angawen shouts at various people, so I won't have to develop them too much, unless you want me to put anything else in. If so, do tell me. |
I don't especially see why a revelation of wizardliness would be a problem for Dracomir if it reached Luciamir. Luciamir is also a wizard. The Malfoidacils are allowed to use their anakronistic magical power and are proud of it.
So unless you find actual evidence of treachery you're hard put to move against him so far. Other options might open up. We'll just have to keep spying on each other...but do give the lad a chance. He might even prove helpful to you at some later stage... On another note, I would like to see the phantom's post explaining why Mardil chose us. It's difficult being hamstringed about motivation in that regard. And I'm interested to see what he comes up with... And finally, I have my evil four hour Greek exam tomorrow afternoon, and my English Literature on Friday. I'll try and get in a short post today, but aside from that I'll be essentially out of action until Friday afternoon. |
I too am crippled by exams until Friday evening GMT.
|
Ah, well... if we're talking about crippling time constraints... beginning next weekend is a summer of dubious internet time for me. Between working at least two jobs, having guests for a month straight, and potentially (if it all works out the way I'm hoping) spending several weeks on the west coast... Well... we'll see how it goes. :)
Now... The phantom will have his reasons as to why Mardil would choose people. I eagerly await to hear them. Of TGWBS's list of four, I prefer relocating Malfoidacil to the position of minor threat. As Ang points out, there is no actual evidence of treachery. However if the Gondorians would like to test their limits, they are welcome to. The erm... Dweomer... will react with direct responses to how the Gondorians choose to address this. Meaning, if you guys come up with something really cool and clever that looks like it would be a lot of fun for you to write, me to read, and isn't going to tamper with story lines you don't know about, I'm probably going to let you do it. Feel free to try. |
Also...
Lhuna, shall we assume that you received the cream and returned to the chamber before Lola arrived? And- Mordorians, please escort yourselves to Roggie's audience chamber. Alli's busy and he'll be there when you get there. |
And feel free to muck about with Snape and Bellatrix...though I naturally assigned them for reasons of my own! Rather distant reasons at that...
I reserve the right to assign many more Harry Potter characters to Mordor when and if it suits me, but I would additionally point out to the honourable gentlemen that Fenrir Greyback was last seen in Mordor... |

I've added a small secondary character to Smilog’s story. Do I need a Character description form for him? He's not going to last long, by the way. I just needed him in there for plot reasons. Don't worry; this treasure hunt won't distract Smilog from the main game.
When are we meant to come to Roggie, by the way? |
As soon as you get there, you're meant to be there. Gives you a bit of freedom between now and then. As long as the characters find their ways to his chambers within the next hour or so (game time), all's still easy. Otherwise he'll get bored, leave his audience chamber, and the task of finding and convincing him will be a rather lot more difficult.
|
Right then. In my next post, Smilog and Andvarri will go to Roggie and begin to try and 'convince' him to let the negotiations go ahead. ;)
Out of interest, is there a convenient window in the audience chamber? |
Out of consideration, I recommend knocking and waiting for a response before entering.
And convenience? I like convenience. Of course there's a window! |

Hmmm... I don't seem to read my own posts very well. I shall edit that other paragraph ASAP.
Let me know if I've still missed something... Anyway, I'm still totally clueless as to where to take the Gondorians, so I'll let people get on with their exams, and wait. I'm in no major hurry. I don't LIKE demoting Draco to a minor thread, personally, since I think ostracising him and the other Gondorians makes for good dramatic interest, but at the moment it does seem to be the thing to do. |
Maika had just had her moment of vanity, and I seem to have enjoyed it too much. :rolleyes:
Anguirel, please edit your post with Maika having already returned when Lola arrived. Thanks! |
I suppose this would be a good time to tell everyone that I have never read any of the Harry Potter books or seen the movies.

Excellent! Then Skittles's confusion is all the more justified!
Just off to edit, Lhuna. |
Quote:
Orphaned boy with latent supernatural powers is hidden from Dark Lord and raised by aunt and uncle sans powers until such a time comes that an old man with a very large interest in the boy (that also has supernatural powers) shows up to introduce him to a magical world beyond his imagination and reveals that said orphan is the only one that can take out said Dark Lord. "Harry," Voldemort will probably say as Fea rolls her eyes with a grin. "I am your father." "No!" Harry will scream melodramatically. |
And how does Draco fit into the Star Wars model...?
The question of questions-am I Han Solo or the bounty hunter chappie? |
Time to get reading then Diamond! Think of it as extending your education in a fun yet helpful way :rolleyes:
And Fea, what an ending! |

The thing that worries me is who Snape, Beatrix, and Fenrir are. :confused:
Maybe Skittles should just avoid them.... |
Snape is Malfoidacil's favourite teacher, Bellatrix is his aunt, and Fenrir is a werewolf.
|
This list is a compilation of Harry Potter characters and places, not exhaustive since it doesn't include Fenrir, but is pretty good nevertheless and is annotated. This list is a bit clearer to read and also doesn't include Fenrir, but has brief descriptions.
A brief description of the canonical Fenrir Greyback: he's a vicious brute that has made it his mission to convert as many as possible into werewolvery, especially children. Draco Malfoy is acquainted with him and has dropped his name with an enthusiasm like to that of releasing a rabid ferret from your grasp but is also afraid of him. A quick description of the Fenrir that was introduced to Mordor in ATM1: Fea transported him there through a fire to help take care of a werewolf problem (she has odd logic, she'll admit) and he stuck around. He is now very closely watched by Alli (Seer) and Aimè (Hunter), but he is still a free citizen. Feel free to use him. :cool: |
I confess that I have not been able to find time to read any of the rpg, nor much of the discussion thread, due to RL and other coughwerewolfcough constraints.
Could someone tell me where these events are currently taking place so I know where to pop Anakron in at? |

I guess Roggie liked the casino too much to leave it demolished. ;) EDIT: Yes, there's the post. |
Thanks, Celuien. I won't be able to post anymore tonight, it's getting too late. Tomorrow should work out better, after I familiarize myself with a little bit of who's dissing whom. ;)
|
I'm leaving town for the weekend. Complete unavailability from right about now up until probably Monday afternoon. Don't blow anything up while I'm gone, children. ;)
Mordorians about to go find Roggie: this gives you a few days in which to encounter a few adventures on your way to his chambers. |
Form, if you want me to edit anything, just ask.
I had to cut that off prematurely. I had planned a confrontation with the guards. You guys can cover it if you want. |

You know, we're dreadfully limited in what we can do, what with the fear of Assignment and all. It's almost tempting just to get Hyarmenwë assigned to Mordor so that I can get around and do stuff- and the dramatic tension would be heightened since an old and stiff man would have to adjust to VERY different circumstances... But no, I shall forbear. |

Just wanted to request that Lola stays in the room until Panakeia's arrival. There's a little post brewing that sort of needs her presence as motivation. ;)
|
I could probably manage that. Let me extricate her from Malfoidacil's forward grasp, however. One moment...
|
Er... perhaps I should have mentioned this, but I had Skittles leave suddenly in hopes of getting her to Roggie's chambers before everyone else. So I didn't want her dragged back to the council room. :p But, I think I can still work around that, if you're patient with me. :D
|
My apologies Diamond, I can always cut that bit out if necessary?
|
Actually, no... but thanks for offering. Celuien's post gave me a bit of an idea, so I'm trying to work with that.
I'll try and remember to clue people in on plans a bit better -- I had planned to write Skittles Part Deux earlier but didn't get around to it, otherwise I would have warned people (if I'd known I wasn't going to get it up right away). |
