I'm here and willing to post. I am open to any of the options aforementioned, but I wouldn't scream or kick if we had to close the game.

Good. I can take care of that part.

Seriously, I'm a bit worried about this trend of RPGs closing down. Aren't people willing to commit to games any more?

Those people are getting more common these days.

I suggest we all go out in one group, as not to confuse everyone on who's group should be posting when. Then let's go to that guy who lives in the Chetwood, I foget his name, and move on from there. But first ya'll have to find me!

I'm trying mate. If all want to follow that would be fine as they could catch up to us. I don't find it unreasonable that they would be a little alarmed at the way Kuric left and want to tail me for a bit and when we enter the wilderness they get mighty upset. Groin could, at first, be a prime suspect.

That'd be marvelous. Sorry I'm not being more help here guys, this is my first RPG, and I really am not much of a writer (have you noticed the short posts and everything? )

Sounds good, I nominate this idea.

Firefoot has been trapped in the Barrow!
My apologies, all.

I really sort of had planned on dropping out of RPG's in general... most of them were hardly moving at all and I didn't have much time anyway. Well, I still don't have enough time but it looks like they're moving again and at this point I don't think it would be really fair to leave you guys here when you still want to continue. So I guess I'm here.

What I am going to do, however, is let you all in on the intended plot. I think that's part of the reason this game has stalled, that people haven't known where it's going.

The culprits for the livestock killing are wargs (as some of you, perhaps, have guessed). The hunt through the village was intended to add some more action to the game, and as such will be unsuccessful. The group will then have to head off into the wilderness, where the group actually will encounter Ol' Jak (played by Folwren). Then on to fight the wolves.

Don't feel bound by this, though; if you have any ideas for complications etc. don't hesitate to throw them in there. And don't hesitate to move the plot along either... (in other words, don't wait for me). I'm really going to try to keep up with this RPG, but I'm not anticipating having a lot of time.

I'll post next

How about the "heroes" stumble upon Gorin. If you approve, I'll have this up as soon as I can.
