Actually, they aren't too short, Farael - they get your characters to the leaving place and both of you are free to add additional posts where you talk with the others in your party, mount up, receive direction from the march-warden as you wish, etc. Don't hurry along - there's plenty of play time and it's nice to deepen your characters as much as you can.

I'll work on putting up the posts just after midnight here in the Pacific northwest of the US - after I return from work. There will also be some final instructions about posting to the game included.

Undómë and Nogrod - I'll put your 'older characters' posts on the game once the chosen riders have left Bregoware.

Shield Let's ride on!

Looks good!

And even if we oldtimer's are slow to start, we'll be at your backs soon enough.

Have a good ride everyone!

And let's hope that Valar will guard our way.

Which reminds me... exactly what beliefs did the people from Rohan have? if I'm not mistaken, the Valar are the gods of the elves and Numenorians (and as we are lead to believe, the 'true' deities of Middle Earth) yet did all the other cultures worship the valar?

The RPG is now open for play. Have fun!!

--------

A few reminders:

Remove your signature from EVERY post to the RPG thread, including SAVES.

Fill in your SAVES in 48 hours, please.

Do not use smilies or any Post Icons on your Game posts.

Don't put 'Reasons for Editing' on your game posts - if it's important that the other gamers know you've edited something - use the Discussion Thread to tell them about it.

Please remember to use other writers' characters very carefully. Don't speak for them or have them perform actions unless it is okayed by the character's owner.

Yay! The game is open for play!!

Until our two groups join together - let's use the names of the 2 villages in bold as headers to our posts. I think it will be easier to keep track of our separate groups that way.

Farael

I put your second post on the game for you.

Tevildo

My character, Brand, has finally gotten to the Hall - and has greeted you as the first fast-rider he spies.

Ladies of Wulfham, feel free to come and join us two guys and get our food, water, etc. Before we actually leave, I think the March-warden will give us a few instructions.

One thing about geography

Do we have any more clearer idea about our villages' whereabouts than that they are in / around Wold, near the eastern Border of Rohan, Bregoware even at the east side of Anduin? Within that description falls quite a lot of land.

I was just wondering about the route we well take: as someone riding after the others, I should have some idea about the direction... Hopefully the March-warden of Bregoware will say it aloud at the game thread?
