Any interest in a Rohirimm RPG.

The Sasquatch of Fangorn · 04-05-2008, 11:08 PM

Just wanted to see if anyone wanted to join an RPG that I'm thinking of starting. It takes place in Middle-Earth after the war of the ring. The riders of rohaan have just re-assembled after their battle at Minas Tirith when Grima Wormtounge takes over for Saruman, and get revenge on Rohann.

Wadda ya think?

Curufin · 04-06-2008, 07:30 AM

I'd be interested.

Tell me more.

Sorry for meddling - as I am not planning to join... (I have too little spare time *sigh*).

I only have a question/suggestion: With what forces would Grima take over Rohan? All Saruman's troops have been destroyed, while Theoden did leave some riders behind to defend Rohan.

However, there is a possibility to wriggle out of it, I think. A large portion of Dol Guldur troops that attacked Lorien on March 11, 3019, continued further to Rohan. They were destroyed by Ents on March 12. If you let them escape the Ents' vigilance, then they could take Edoras. Maybe they would allow Grima to join (nice to have a local traitor who knows all ins and outs).

Alternatively, you might consider Dunlendings - maybe they were not really pacified.

Here are my 2 cents anyway...Hope you don't mind.

Not at all! Actually, I was thinking of something along those lines.

I was also thinking of adding rouge forces to the army such as dunlinding ect. I was also going to have Grima find the book that Saruman got the "recipe" so-to-speak for the Uruk-Hai.

Curufin · 04-06-2008, 01:13 PM

I've had quite a bit of fun playing LothÃ*riel, Ã‰omer's wife and the daughter of Imrahil of Dol Amroth in another 4th Age Rohan RPG...could I play her in this?

The Sasquatch of Fangorn · 04-06-2008, 01:28 PM

Why not? I'm going to make up my own person, but if you want to use her go right ahead!

A recipe? Breeding and interbreeding - it takes a lot of time anyway. Orcs and Uruks reproduce "in the manner of the children of Iluvatar"

The Sasquatch of Fangorn · 04-06-2008, 02:04 PM

Well in the RPG he's been at it for a while now.

The Sasquatch of Fangorn · 04-06-2008, 06:01 PM

Anyone else?

shesabrandybuck · 04-09-2008, 04:47 PM

As you know, I would love to join. Are we making up characters or using existing ones...orrr both?

Curufin · 04-09-2008, 07:06 PM

Thought I'd go ahead and put up a character description here.

NAME: LothÃ*riel
RACE: Human
GENDER: Female
AGE: 22
HOME: Dol Amroth
FATHER: Imrahil of Dol Amroth
RANK: Queen of Rohan, wife of Ã‰omer Ã‰adig

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE: Slight and delicate, LothÃ*riel stands out among the tall, strapping folk of the Rohirrim. Her hair is dark and long, and her eyes are brown. She is quite lovely in an almost 'Elvish' sense - it is easy when looking at her to believe Imrahil's claim that there is Elvish blood in their line.

PERSONALITY LothÃ*riel is quiet and reserved, very much a Gondorian as opposed to the louder and more forward temperment of the Rohirrim. This leads some to think that she is snotty, but in truth she is not. Part of her quiet is because of the fact that she is not particularly happy in Rohan. It is a bit of a culture shock to her, being far less 'civilized' than Dol Amroth, and she misses the sea. She also feels rather isolated as she doesn't speak the language and hates horses.

The Sasquatch of Fangorn · 04-11-2008, 11:04 PM

All-right I'm thinking of starting this baby up! This will serve as the disscusion thread for the RPG. If anyone else wants to join, post here or PM me.

Curufin · 04-14-2008, 12:21 PM

shesabrandybuck · 04-15-2008, 03:55 PM

Waiiiittttt!!!
suggestions for characters?
(....having never done this before...)

The Sasquatch of Fangorn · 04-15-2008, 04:15 PM

If you want to make up a character go right ahead. It's a first for me too. This is the first RPG I've ever done where I can't be a dwarf!

Curufin · 04-19-2008, 08:00 PM

We have enough people to start.

*twitches impatiently*

The Sasquatch of Fangorn · 04-20-2008, 02:40 PM

It will be uo within the hour!

The last sane person · 04-20-2008, 02:59 PM
