Just to confirm, I don't believe there would be any problem in me mentioning Bilbo in my post, as I would be acquainted with the name at least.

That should be fine, Mormegil, you're right. I'm pretty sure he would have herad from Bilbo, if he were from anywhere near the Lonely Mountain and Dale.

Ok so I'm a little confused as to this whole format that seems to be operating here. I have roleplayed before, indeed I used to be a moderator on a site just for Tolkien roleplay. However I have never seen it set out in a format like this before and I'm finding it a little bewildering. Shall I just post a character up here and then post in the inn and see where it goes from there?

Grok, I'm fairly new to the RP world here but yes you make up a character using the general form found at the beginning of this thread and then introduce him/her at the inn. There are cetain character types that wouldn't be allowed in this setting such as orcs, southrons, etc...

I hope this is moderately helpful. Welcome to the downs.

Mormegil, Folwren,

I have no idea what Tollers whispered in Dick's ear: the truth, a fabricated tale, or something in-between. Folwren -- feel free to play this any way you like (or to leave it alone). Mormegil -- don't know if your dwarf will accept such an offer. But if you do, I'd love to play one of those children! But then you are also totally free to back out or to try and ferret the truth out of your wily hobbit waiter....

Sounds great! Kuric could use some obnoxious child to try and knock some sense into him. He's obviously not used to such company.
