All correct. Now, don't forget that the rune gate is not the one with the Watcher in the Water. That one got knocked to pieces in FOTR.

That's fine, what you've got, with them resting in Lorien. I think I'll try to work up a plot development around that.
Meanwhile, I'll give Legolas, Gimli, Makoin, and Tarkhal some work to do.

whoa dude I'm confused, there are dwarves ALREADY atacking Moria? or already IN moria? and geographically speaking our merry band of dwarves is at least a days march away from wherever this "spare" moria gate is.

enlighten me o loremaster.

Good job, Curub. You're already confusing people
Foiled by the 90 sec rule! Again! And Again!

Sorry about that. It's in the original ending/epilogue that Tolkien wrote for LOTR...you can find that in History of Middle-Earth. There was a band of dwarves that already set out to establish a colony in Moria. I'm not sure who led them. Those are the dwarves that are getting attacked...although right now they're trying to drive off the goblins.
Anyone's free to create a dwarf character in the colony. In fact, it would help a lot...

Hmm...I never thought about the name "Acalewia" vs. the name "Aviendha". (I know the name so well because she gets a much bigger role in the next books)
You were prob. thinking about Neverborn, the wolves name for a Fade.

Use guttural letters like Kh, Z, G...and then throw in O's and U's. And an N or two. Other letters...use sparingly.

I'm just going on with that conversation with Acalewia. Obviously not furthering the plot much. Maybe developing... Meh.

Should Elrohir come in and... kill some orcs?

Not yet...I'll make some sort of major plot development now.
Here's my dwarf colonist:

Name: Dalginn son of Malginn
Race: Dwarf
Gender: Male
Weapons: Two handaxes, which are fairly big.
Appearance: More limber than other dwarves, not as stocky. Wears a blue cape and sturdy armor. A somewhat short beard.
Personality: Eager to find ways to prove himself. Can hesitate if caught in very nasty situation...but he almost always gets into these anyway!
History: Got wanderlust, decided to help colonize Moria again.

Good twist, Curubethion!


Willow seems to be suffering from a disturbing flux in her powers. Bad timing there.

Thanks for the tips guys, I'll work on the names.

Well, even if it doesn't kill you, Acalewia, the elf part of you will take a hit.

I assume.
I think.
Eh
