The Fourth Age... - Page 2

Handmaiden of Yavanna · 03-20-2002, 06:07 PM

Out of curiosity what are you going to be calling this rpg? Is it going to be called 'the fourth age'? Just wonderin.

Wayfarer · 03-20-2002, 06:30 PM

I'd be willing to play on two conditions:

1) No ****py untolkien things. Like nazgul or tragic romances with legolas (elves don't do tragic romances).

1) No ****py untolkien things.

It's been my experience that these things detract from a roleplay greatly, and moreson when commited willfully (not by accident).

That aside, I have a previous character who was a general for gondor.

Name: Solon
Race: Gondorian.
Hair: Short Cropped and Grey
Eyes: Grey
Height: Medium.
Build: Stocky.
History: Been in the army of gondor all his life. Fairly high ranking, slightly better at combat than strategy.

Nariel Starfire · 03-21-2002, 08:20 PM

okay, fine no sappy untolkien stuff. You're all in (even Earniel

)
I don't know what the exact plot is yet so I can't really give it a proper name. I know this much:

When the story starts out, Eruwyn is travelling to greater Gondor and Rohan as a messenger to ask them for help because the Southrons and Easterlings are attacking Ithilien (Just Ithilien ). The bad guys are men (weren't they men?). Any further plot development i'll need help with, so if you've got ideas, IM me.

If you don't mind my asking, what is so wrong and untolkien with me being a Nazgul? I agree that having a GOOD Nazgul could be untolkien, but why can't I play an EVIL Nazgul who is leading the enemy? I really wanted to be a bad guy and I usually play as a Nazgul... so what's wrong with that?

Anyhow, lets start!

Wayfarer · 03-22-2002, 04:10 PM

Erm... first, there were only nine naztul, and they basically went to hell when sauron was defeated.

Second... morauko queen of the nazgul? I don't have a problem with female wraiths, but the witch king was the leader.

Lastly... didn't a few people say things about being related to aragorn?

I like evil things... but realistic evil things. A nazgul just wouldn't work in the fourth age.

Laurenis · 03-22-2002, 04:26 PM

Nariel are you still accepting any new people??? I'm in the middle of Pentagrid Net but this Fourth Age one sounds really interesting... I'm not an expert at rpgs anyway but I'd like to be in this...

***Earniel*** · 03-22-2002, 04:35 PM

Alright my character:

Name:Imarwen
Race: Rohirrim
Age: 20 years
Appearance: 5.3 (this better be right, I normally use a different measure system) dark blond hair, brown eyes
History: comes from an noble but poor family, serves at Meduseld
Personality: a bit shy but has some healing skills
Weapons: long knifes, can throw them as well, but still misses occasionally.
That should be it.

P.S. Morauko,i f you can't be a nazgul queen and still want to be a baddie, why don't you try as an she-orc leading a large warparty of orcs? Or is that too untolkienish? Just a suggestion, though.

Nariel Starfire · 03-22-2002, 04:46 PM

come to think of it, it's true. All the Nazgul were defeated. Anyway, sure, Laurenis. GO ahead and post your profile. I'm going to do some placing where i want people to start out:

Kalome: You will start out on the road to Gondor from the north.

Nimmorn: You will start with a bunch of elves (who will be public characters) rebuilding Ithilien (probably planting trees)

Tuorin:You will begin riding with the Rohirrim back home to, um (gosh, what was the name of the capital city of Rohan again-it slipped my mind)

Anariel: You will begin in Ithilien also, having taken up a residence there. You help out with the rebuilding, but you also make bows and stuff.

Solon: You'll start out in a council with King Elessar. Talk about whatever you want, but in your first post, don't have your char leave.

NOte: In this RPG, people WILL be allowed to talk for other characters as long as they don't mess up the character's personality or take over.
Also, we'll start soon.
One more question: Would morauko be willing to be a human? Leader of Easterlings or Southrons?

NazgÃ»l Queen · 03-22-2002, 10:46 PM

Na... I only was gonna be a bad guy caus I wanted to play as a Nazgul and there are no Good Nazgul.
So I'll just stick with Kalome

Handmaiden of Yavanna · 03-22-2002, 11:26 PM

Where is the rpg posted and under what name so I'll know. When are you going to post it anyway, just wondering.

(I love those little smiley things!)

Belated Happy Birthday and welcome to Moot Madness, Handmaiden of Yavanna!

Nariel Starfire · 03-24-2002, 02:06 PM

Okay, Imarwen, you can start out in Meduseld. Work yourself in somehow when Eruwyn gets there. Anyhow, I've decided to call the story Ithilien's Bane for lack of a better idea. I'll post there.

Handmaiden of Yavanna · 03-26-2002, 05:20 PM

What is Ithilien's bane supposed to be? Like what is the bane itself. I was just curious, it's a cool title for a rpg.

Arat-Falathion · 03-27-2002, 02:05 PM

Has this started already?

I'll join in as soon as I have my computer up and running again!

Arat-Falathion · 03-28-2002, 02:02 PM

Is this rpg during the beginning of the 4rth age? or is it later on?
Just in consern of if Eowyn (the White Lady of Ithilien) and Faramir is still alive...

- Arat-Falathion

Nariel Starfire · 03-28-2002, 03:11 PM

the bane of Ithilien is to be exposed later in the RPG. THe point of it is to figure out what it is and if I told you that'd ruin the idea. And yes, Eowyn and Faramir are still alive, but they're getting up in years.

Arat-Falathion · 03-29-2002, 07:46 AM

Ok, so then we somewhat know that it is in the early ages of the 4rth age

jaja..
I'll cut to my entrance as soon as I see the time is right, emm... seems like the characters ain't too active... I might bring my entrance a little earlier then I first thought

Now to the others: get yourself together and post post post!

- Arat-Falathion, son of Arat-CÃºrion, son of Arat-BÃ*renath...

Handmaiden of Yavanna · 04-02-2002, 10:48 PM

I agree Arat-Falathion. I need to post to someone please!!!!!!!

***Earniel*** · 04-03-2002, 04:55 AM

Well I can't really post until they get to Meduseld. I forgot that when I placed myself somewhere I would have to start there, silly me.

Oh wait, this looks like my cue!

Eruviel Greenleaf · 04-03-2002, 10:56 AM

I was waiting for one or two others to post, as I am rather new to this, and now I realize I will be away for a week, starting Saturday. Could I possibly come in late?
