Heh.

No, I don't think they're in the best position to look for her, either.

I can make Modtryth realise Ginna is missing - it would actually be quite believable too - but I just realised that I doubt I will get anything done before Sunday evening or Monday morning my time. So you don't need to wait for me when it comes to realising that Ginna is missing, or to anything else.

Maybe I can find her on my way in. I don't mind editing my last post.

edit: Ok, I've seen her

Just a couple of points for your consideration, Eonwe:

Ginna has raven black hair.

It is night time; the sickle moon is out and so are stars. It is perhaps 3 hours after dusk.

I like the uncle's words. Nice touch. Just so with mention of symbelminë. I like.

Sorry, I was reading from here. It must have changed since then.

Thank you.

EDIT: Is that better?

Nice post, Groin. I wonder though if you get muskrats in Rohan... hmm... look here

LMP -

Do you want me to edit the bio Lhunardawen wrote for Ginna? She has the character with blonde hair and blue eyes (post #76 of this thread):

AGE/GENDER/RACE/WHERE FROM: 23, female, Eorling from the north of the Middle Emnet

APPEARANCE: Stands 5'8" tall, slender but stronger than she appears, has light blonde hair almost reaching her waist, and wide blue eyes. A bit too beautiful for her own good.

BITS OF CHARACTER/HISTORY YOU FEEL MIGHT BE HELPFUL IN DEFINING THE CHARACTER: Ginna is the only child of Randvér, a widower, friend of Eodwine's from the War, and small lord and landholder. She was sent to the Eorl's keeping in hope that she will learn to "behave more properly," and while she does not mind being away from her father, their separation failed to give them a chance to address their worsening estrangement. She is determined and a quick learner, but can be stubborn and headstrong. The loneliness to which she had been accustomed helped her to easily make friends with the people around her, but had also made her highly insecure, which leads her to take advantage of Harreld's feelings for her as she had done with other men before. Too late did she realise, however, how wrongly she had treated the smith, and now desires to win back his friendship, although she has no idea how to go about doing it.

Though she does not admit it, she wants to settle down, but she doubts her father would judge her ready, if indeed he had a mind to give her away in marriage at all.

I don't see any reason why they shouldn't, unless of course you mean that we don't know if they live in Middle Earth. Well, if not them then another fury creature has to live in that marshland. Erbrand has to have something else to work with other than cowhides.

Thanks for you insight, Eönwë.

I'll go and look up what types of animals dwell in a place like Rohan.

Apparently it had been too long since I last wrote for her.

I'll go ahead and edit her character bio.

(And now I'm not so sure if I got the colour of her eyes right...)

Oops!

No, my mistake. I fear that I have been picturing Lhuna's face (after a fashion) onto Ginna.

I am wrong, Ginna has light blonde hair. Poor Harreld, he's been terribly color blind all this time!

For swamp dwelling creatures, considering the climate of Rohan, I think the best bestiary we could use would come from France and Germany. Yeah. Like Pio said.

Does that mean I have to change my post again?*

edit*: rhetorical question.
