Okay, we are now up to...

Meneltarmacil
Cailin
Azaelia
Fareal
TGWBS
Garin
Holbytlass
Kath
Rune
Valier
Gil-Galad
Lhunardawen


Not a bad start... I'm sure we'll have enough by the time the game starts.

Do you have any vague notions concerning gameplay afore I give my character a role?
My dear Guy Who Be Short....

I have more than vague notions, I have a rather clear picture...

This game will be set in the early-mid Third Age, in eastern Rhovannion. Gondorians and Northmen would be the most likely ethnic groups to be found in this particular little village.

It is my intention to continue in the epic tradition of the Phantom and Alcarillo, now taking place in the Third Age.

I'm looking for approximately 15-18 players, by the way.

In that case, I'll be the creepy guy on the outskirts of town.

Okay, the list stands at:

Meneltarmacil - Creepy Guy on the Edge of Town
Cailin - Noble Kleptomaniac
Azaelia
Farael
- Worm Hunter
TGWBS - Hat Maker
Garin - Horse Loaner
Kath
Rune
Valier
- Brewmaster
Gil-Galad - Shrubber
Alcarillo - Moneylender
Lhunardawen - Potion-Pizza Person
Gurthang - Rancher
Amanaduial
Naria
- Store Proprietor
Nilpaurion Felagund - Suspicious Carnivore
Kuruharan - Dwarven Alcohol and Weapons Merchant
Eluchil - Mild-Mannered Innkeeper
Malkatoj

That's 18 players, unless I count wrong, which I don't, so I think we're about full up- with room for maybe one more player, unless someone backs out.

As for Rune: Be a peace activist if you like, but I don't think that there were any Hobbits in Gondorian 3rd Age Rhovannion...

Kuru and Naria: You can be businessmen (or businessdwarves), if you like, but tobacco/pipeweed hasn't been discovered as useful yet...

That seems to be all the important info for now... If everybody could hand in job descriptions (or have them assigned- be warned, I will make them whatsoever I like) over the next couple days, that would be awesome. Meanwhile, expect a Saturday, Sunday, or maybe even Monday start- depending on what happens to me this Sunday.

Each Day, as usual, will be 24 hours in duration (give or take), as will each Night. We will begin with a Night Cycle. Day/Night transitions will probably be made at 3:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time, which is 5:00 p.m EST, and should be 10:00 pm in Greenwich.

I wonder if there was pizza in those days... If there was, I think I shall be a chef specializing in potion (of whatever kind)-containing pizzas. What say you, dear mod?

10+8=18. 18-12=6. So that's 6 AM for me...expect early votes.

Typos happen to the best of people. 'Tis best not to point them out in posts unless if becomes habit.

Potion Pizza Person...

Dunno if they had pizza during the 3rd Age, but there's nothing saying they couldn't slap some sauce made of anachronistic tomatoes onto bread dough, sprinkled it with cheese and called it a pizza.

Updating the List.

Yes, I just now realized that you are quite a 'misplaced' individual. I wasn't even aware that the hobbits were such an unruly crowd as to need a peace activist.
