No, don't kill my daddy! Just send him somewhere far away, but please please pretty please keep him alive! Or my mum will be sooo devastated.

Hm.

The only reason Eomer of the Rohirrim would leave his beloved wife and poor defenceless daughter is being brutally slaughtered. Besides, he is rather amused by the prospect of having a death scene, despite not playing in the game.

Of course I shall be devastated, but I suspect I will not be the only widow by the end of this game.

It is, why not? I accept.

There is. As you can see from the family tree, Greenie's family is all green

P.S. Oh, and, I forgot, I join Thinking of occupation, I wouldn't mind being a herdsman (or herdsman's son, or even an "immigrant" so that we don't have to seek a father for me, since he would be simply somewhere else) or something like that...

Ah well, a semi-orphan I will be. Of course my father will only be heroic and nothing else. Belated happy mothers' day, anyway.

Hmm...and maybe the different degrees of green-ness also tell something...

Good to see you making up your mind Legate! I've added you to the list with +.

A few "adults" would be great to play the fathers and mothers of Kit/Brinn & Gwath/McCaber and some gaffers/gammers would be nice as well.

We have now 20 players. That's a number we can play with but a few more would be nice indeed!

Last time we had 30... I think 25 at least would be nice and probably not THAT difficult to get if you advertise a bit more...

Well I used to be married to Legate in Nog's last WW, and since he liked it so much I didn't have the heart not to remind him of it.

I will be a 15-year-old lass who doesn't help her family members with housework but hangs around the village all day long doing nothing (except picking flowers and looking pretty).
edit: assuming, of course, that it's ok for Lalaith to have a 15-year-old daughter. I could be a few years younger as well.

Volo, do you want to be a crippled cat with a broken tail?

Okay. I made a first version of the families taking it for granted that the phantom takes Lhuna as his girlfriend and that Volo would be the son of Nerwen - thus enabling him being teased by Agan... and if Nerwen and Lalaith accept me as their father...

Everything there is can be changed. I just wanted to see how it would look like and to offer you as well a better understanding of the relations. And for example Gwath and McCaber do not need to be youngsters if they prefer fex. to marry Nerwen and Lalaith (them willing as well...) or something.

So here it is:
