Bravo, everyone! Blood, battle, decapitations! Pimpi admires you warrior folk greatly. Though the new hairstyle might be too horrific even for her to dwell on. I hope Earnur got Wylkynsion back.

I have gone back and changed my references to Mirkwood to Workmud. Squatter, in your post on January 16th, 8:01 AM, you used the term. "The self styled Poet Larueate of Mirkwood." I didn't notice it anywhere else.

I also changed Thranduil to Throngduil (Geppettuil is the third cousin thrice removed of King Throngduil) and Dale to Chippendale. Earlier I had also referred to "Mirkwood" as "The Forest Formally Known as Greenwood the Untreated Lumber Yard." If you don't get that, it's probably because it's a very lame pun. Apologies.

I have not as yet used "Rohan" in the RPG, though I did in the discussion, but if the occasion arises, may I suggest "Rofee"?

I used "the Shire" a couple times. I can't think of a suitable spoof, as it being only one syllable it's hard to change it and not make it unrecognizable. Any suggestions and I'll change. That should make no verbatum place names from Tolkien.

I'll try and update my post later in the afternoon. If anyone wants to post before, I plan on ending it just under the bows of Workmud. I might end up going deeper if no one does post, but you can use that as a starting point.
