Child, Undómë, Dimturiel

I'd like to finish the reference to the animal people. In Dimturiel's post I got the idea that what her character saw were Orcish sort of folk.

The characters I introduced were along the lines of the Native Old Ones from the Charles de Lint books about his fictional town, Newford.

Here's what I was thinking - in de Lint's books those of the Faerie Realm came over the seas to the New World. And met there those of the spirit world/mythlore of North America. I was intending to have this be a band of those ancient Folk of the the Native North-Americans who have crossed over to the 7th Age middle-earth realm with those of their people who've emigrated east across the seas.

Can we have a brief confrontation with the bad guys and let these mysterious strangers lend a brief hand against them?

It needn't be a long episode, but I'd like to bring it to some closure.

But - whatever you folk want to do is fine with me.....

An aside - I wrote to Gilthalion a number of months ago and he has given permission to take his premise for the story and whatever posts we'd like to use and play out the Simian Shadow RPG.

Could be fun, eh?
