Good post,
Eorl and I 100% approve of your enthusiasm, but I would still consider the matter of an assistant healer. I think
Nerindel should have her say on any assistants her character might have, especially as it's something never before thought of.
Also, the introduction of an assitant healer creates some illogalicaties - no one has ever interacted with her before although she's presumably been around all along. Otherwise I wouldn't think it a problem but given the small size of the Scarburgian community, it's quite difficult to explain why she hasn't been mentioned at all at any point and hasn't been around when most needed (ie when Eodwine was sick, it was Aedhel looking after him, assisted by Modtryth - if there had been an assistant healer she would've been there instead of the all-around household maid who's also currently working as a kind of pregnancy consultant
).
I would therefore suggest that if/since you want to keep Jaheira, we make her one of Athanar's party. She could even be
the healer of his household, come with good recommendations but not really being ready or self-confident at all... or something like that. What say you
Nog? And
Nerindel? And
Eorl?
Eorl, I'm sorry if I sound like I'm bashing your idea 'cos that's definitely not what I'm trying to do, but I think you're moving a bit too fast for us others to keep in pace.
So (since we are in Rohan), please hold your horses for a second and we'll (and that "we" includes you, of course) sort out where your new character would best fit in.
Meanwhile, you can use your energy for coming up with a
bio for Jaheira (still assuming you're intent on keeping her, sorry I didn't get a totally clear picture)...
