Please do not post here unless your name is on the list already. The Game Proposal is not yet done and is not open for new players.

Thanks!

Deagon walked silently through the path in the forest. He had just finished with the patrol, and as usual left the group to be alone. The tall elf was aloof nowadays, even from those who were his friends and companions.

He was in deep thought when he caught sight of Gayahithwen and the other kitchen elves. She waved to another elf. He stopped when he saw who it was- Rinurion. And with him was the elf from Lorien, Laryelion.

Rinurion was the one elf in Mirkwood he had constantly tried to avoid. Everytime they crossed paths, he could see in the other's eyes the distrust. And the heavy guilt he bore pained him as much as the helplessness he felt.

He sighed and walked away. To be alone again. Alone since Elenloth was captured by the enemy. It was because of that fact he had tried to trade Gayahithwen and another elf maiden Amaryllis for her release. Rinurion had foiled that, and with Laryelion's aid, had rescued them. There was an argument between him and the orcs. They refused to take him to Elenloth, nor assure him of her release.

Amaryllis and Gayahithwen had persuaded Rinurion not to deal harshly with him. He had been released after being cleared. The elf maiden had said that the orcs had ambushed them. She had not revealed he had led them to the orcs. She had spoken to him afterwards, but he had kept silent.

What could they do even if he told them that his sister had been captured? Should he seek aid, it would endanger Elenloth's life. He had made a bargain, forced upon him. He had tracked down the orcs, but they were many. His companions were killed or taken, but he was released. And he was promised the freedom of his sister if he fulfilled part of that bargain.

PIO & THAL,

sorry that came with "some" delay!

The Deagon character is going to shape up quite differently from my Muru character, thanks for the advice Pio!

He's somewhat tragic by the looks of it. Although it'll be up to the story's development if he dies or not. I don't think Thranduil will let Deagon live once his duplicity is revealed. At this point, although I think I'll consider Elenloth already dead (or a lost cause) even though Deagon still thinks she's alive.

So when is the story going to get started?

Everyone

The Game Proposal is now all filled in!

Can everyone please check in so we all know you're ready to play.

Once that's done - I'll open the Game's Discussion Thread - there were still 3 characters you wanted to pick up - 2 Mirkwood guards and 1 warrior from Lorien.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thali -- CLEAR YOUR PM's PLEASE!

Once everyone has checked in here - I need you to be able to handle the Discussion Thread when it opens - what date is good for you?

I'll close this Planning Thread, then, and everyone can use the Discussion Thread.

Once you've gotten your 3 Elven players I'll open the RPG Thread up for play.

How does this sound?
