Prisoner of Númenor Planning/Discussion Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Regin Hardhammer · 10-05-2005, 06:53 PM

I put up a save. Is there anything special that I need to mention in my post, or should I just say that we saw the gaurds and started to fight. Also, should the rescuers take the Kariborim from Tarik before or after the battle? Any other suggestions/requests are appreciated.

I'd rather like the kariborim to join the battle, since they're so loyal and intelligent. If you could, please have Tarik's head leave his body some time during the battle? And I think Abarzadan needs to get separated?

I'm back. Since Tuesday. Been catching up on 3 weeks worth of BD posting, one thread at a time. I really did need to find out who the three werewolves of IX were, you know? Anyway, on topic now: I see there's a battle about to happen. I see Mabalar being unceremoniously dropped, and being thus started into wakefulness, weaponless. How shall we make this battle happen?

By the way, Feanor and Regin: excellent writing, both of you! I'd rep you too Feanor, but I gotta spread it around.

I'll be out of town until Monday, but next week I'll probably be able to get a post in. Thought you might want to know.

Regin, how about you take over Marsillion?

Feanor, how about you take over Kathaani?

Menel, how about you take over Herugor?

LMP, how about you take over Tiru? Uh, okay, if it's all right with the others.

Himaran, I think I've run out of suggested take-overs. Besides, I'd like to see you devote your full attention to Abarzadan anyway.

All these requests having been made, one final: how about we feel free to allow these abandoned characters (obviously excluding Herugor) to die?

Regin Hardhammer · 10-08-2005, 10:32 AM

My save is filled. Sorry about the delay.

LMP Marsillion is fine with me. I had already written my last post when I saw your note but will add him in next time. As far as killing him, could I wait to see how the storyline goes and make that decision when writing?

That was precisely the approach I had in mind when I made the request: not that the character must be killed off. We all know that Mabalar, Azarmano, Inzillomi, and Abarzadan are going to survive. I just would like to see it be that all bets are off regarding the others; could make everything more interesting, and suspenseful, for us writers as well as any readers (what a conceit, eh?).
