Tol-in-Gaurhoth XVII: The Saga Continues to Continue quite Continuously - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Meneltarmacil · 02-03-2006, 04:00 PM

The villagers awoke to the dawn of a new Day.

Shelob wandered around town, still trying to familiarize herself with her surroundings. She passed by Kath, who was checking the village for ghosts.

While mormegil started work on a set of knives, Aiwendil put the finishing touches on a dinner table.

The guy who be short checked his mermaid traps, the only catch being Cailín, who had once again been trying to prove her mermaidness to the village. He sighed and let her out.

Márcolië Lamen attempted to convert Garin to the One True Way of Pastafarianism, only to find herself being attacked by his overeager pigs.

Nilpaurion Felagund ran around on the beach enjoying his freedom from a different Isle of Werewolves, only to run right into a palm tree, knocking a coconut from it onto his head. Valier, who was standing on her head to milk some coconuts nearby, saw this and fell over due to a sudden fit of the giggles as a result.

Dancing spawn of ungoliant attempted to sell Naria a bouquet of colorful flowers; however, this was interrupted when a group of sea turtles apparently sent the latter an urgent message.

Wayne tried to play a game of Dungeons and Dragons in his basement with Gil-Galad. Gil, however, quickly lost interest in the game while analyzing the shapes of the various dice on the table.

As Glirdan walked by muttering to himself under his breath, The Saucepan Man silently wondered if there was a legal way to get all these nutcases shipped off the island for good.

Their thoughts were interrupted by a scream from within the woods. The villagers ran to investigate, finding the mysterious AbercrombieofRohan in distress. Meneltarmacil lay upon ye olde grounde nearby, impaled with ye olde speare. Upon examining ye olde knighte, malkatoj announced that he was only “mostly dead, which is barely alive.”

“Who did this to you?” The Saucepan Man asked.

“Th-three… w-werewolves...” Menel said with his dying breath, and then fell silent. As Formendacil dutifully recorded all this in the village chronicles, malkatoj, seeing that Menel was now “all dead,” went through his pockets looking for loose change.

The villagers gathered in the center of town. The wolf hunt had begun.

Living:
mormegil- Elven smith
Garin- Truffle hunter with a half a dozen pigs and no social manners
Nilpaurion Felagund- Escaped thrall from Tol-in-Gaurhoth
dancing spawn of ungoliant- Florist
The Saucepan Man- Earnest and learned young man of the law
Aiwendil- Old woodwright
AbercrombieOfRohan- Mysterious lady who lives in the depths of the forest
Shelob- Someone who recently washed ashore
malkatoj- Retired Miracle Man (who is not really a man)
Gil-Galad- Shape-Analyst
Glirdan- Crazy guy down the street
Márcolië Lamen- Second official 8th day adventist Pastafarian
Formendacil- Village historian
Cailín- Deluded girl who believes she is a mermaid
Kath- Local investigator into the paranormal
the guy who be short- Mermaid-catcher and fisherman
WaynetheGoblin- Town geek, wimp, and nerd
Naria- Crazy old lady that thinks the marine life talks to her
Valier- Overly giggly coconut milker who only milks the coconuts while standing on her head

Dead:
Meneltarmacil (Moderator): Speared by wolves on Night 1

Wolves: 3
Villagers: 16

It is now Day 1. Villagers may post. Hunter and Ranger may PM each other, Wolves may not.

(Note: My mentioning of villagers' activities is not intended to refer to their roles as wolves, etc.)

Gil-Galad · 02-03-2006, 04:05 PM

oh my three werewolves... thats bad... what are we to do? where are our gifted to save us? oh i hope i don't get lynched... though if i say this i will get band-wagonned on again and i'll be lynched and it will be for naught becuase i'm an Ordinary...again... though when i say i'm innocent people will say that sounds wolish and lynch me and that'll prove to them that i am indeed innocent...perhaps i've said too much already... i need to be serious... oh look a rectangle! *runs off*

the guy who be short · 02-03-2006, 04:23 PM

Alas for the death of ye olde knighte. Verily shall he be missed. I recall his tales of brave exploits amusing me when I was a young lad, afore my fisher years.

Now then, I would like to arbitrarily mention my suspicion of the following:

mormegil
Garin
Nilpaurion Felagund
dancing spawn of ungoliant
The Saucepan Man
Aiwendil
AbercrombieOfRohan
Shelob
malkatoj
Gil-Galad
Glirdan
Márcolië Lamen
Formendacil
Cailín
Kath
WaynetheGoblin
Naria
Valier

Especially Kath, cos she's nasssty.

Formendacil · 02-03-2006, 04:46 PM

'Tis such a pity, good villagers, how the events of one's life conspire to take us away at times when our civic responsibility should be first in our lives...

I should let you all know, right now, that I am the Ranger, and I've dreamed about all of the villager, and if anyone kills me, I'll kill Nilp, 'cause he wants to be lynched:

mormegil: Is innocent, annoyingly so. He'll probably propose a grand plan on Day 3 or 4 to out the Werewolves.
Garin: Is a Werewolf.
Nilpaurion Felagund: Is innocent, but suicidal.
dancing spawn of ungoliant: Is another Werewolf.
The Saucepan Man: Is innocent. He will try and kill Morm.0
Aiwendil: Is the tax-collector. He will rob us blind.
AbercrombieOfRohan: Is a very pretty young girl and couldn't possibly hurt me.
Shelob: Is also very pretty, but she'll probably try and lynch me.
malkatoj: Will try to kill me. Innocent, though.
Gil-Galad: Is not a Werewolf. Might be the Werebear.
Glirdan: Is secretly a Hobbit. Don't let on, though.
Márcolië Lamen: Has a thing for turtles. Might be a Wereturtle.
The Guy Who Be Short: Is guiltier than snot, and should be our first victim.
Cailín: Is the third Werewolf.
Kath: Is quiet. She'll probably hide in a corner until Day 5, then kill us all.
WaynetheGoblin: Has a thing for Werewolves. Probably the Cobbler.
Naria: Very scary, but innocent.
Valier: Is Queen Beruthiel: see that catavatar?

I'm voting for ++ Valier. Queen Beruthiel must go!

(And if you believe everything I've said, you're madder than I am! Sorry about things, but I very likely won't post again toDAY, nor on DAY 2 till later on... Kill me if you like, you're only losing your Lord and Master.

)

Cailín · 02-03-2006, 04:23 PM

Only one post and I am already confused! Gil, dear, you sound rather traumatised. Anything you wish to own up to?

Three werewolves! Not one, not a modest couple, but three...! And they are horrible creatures: all smelly and hairy and nothing gracious about them. I suppose this would be a proper time to return to sea, but unfortunately, I quite forgot where I left my red cap.

TGWBS obsession with mythical creatures is certainly suddenly far more unnerving. I say he has an unhealthy obsession for mermaids. And why isn't he more obsessed with me? *whines*

You don't suppose werewolves only eat meat, huh? I might be immune!

the guy who be short · 02-03-2006, 04:28 PM

Cailín, I've told you over and over. You're not a mermaid. You never were a mermaid. You never will be a mermaid. You have LEGS, for Illamatar's sake!

As for my "unhealthy" obsession with mermaids... it's more a passion than an obsession. And I have the right to a personal life, don't I?

I'd like to add that mermaids and werewolves are completely unalike. Unless you get weremaids...

Valier · 02-03-2006, 04:28 PM

Oh! OH! OH! My head is starting to hurt! (Giggle) THREE WEREWOLVES!!!! What ever shall we do? I must go and stand on my head some more, to rid me of this nasty headache........But I will be (Giggle)...watching you all for signs of wolfishness. (Giggle)

They are not legs, my tail was just accidentally split in half! I had a hard life, you know.

And besides, everyone knows mermaids have legs while on land! You don't know the first thing about them! You'll never catch one. Haha.

Anyway - I will have to leave you all for now. My fins desperately need a bath and I have to practice sea hymns and the like. Be safe while I'm gone. Don't kill fish. They are our friends.

Glirdan · 02-03-2006, 04:48 PM

Oh!! Look!! The three Wolves!!! Oops!! Never mind!! I'm just imagining things again. And what's this!? Menel is dead!! My dear old friend! He always helped me calm down when I got to out of hand. Now who is to help me? We need to find these nassty crabs!! I mean Wolves!! Evil is afoot!! Menel dead!? What are you talking about! He's right here beside me!! I think I'm going to go get my medication. Maybe when I come back I'll be less delusional.

*RL Comment* I will be gone the rest of the night. I should be back on early in the morning tomorrow in order to figure things out and vote. So don't take my abscence as a suspicious. Thank you. *RL Comment Ended*

Kath · 02-03-2006, 06:09 PM

Just checking in, thought I'd see if any ghosties or ghoulies had come out to play, and instead I find werewolves! Even better! Well, not for poor Menel or course but from a scientific point of view the possibilities are endless!

If we get one, do make sure I get the body, I'd like to run some tests.

Aaanyway, it's Day 1, and what do we do on Day 1 everyone? That's right! Randomly accuse people! But hey, where's the point, hardly anyones here yet.
