Tanuchan Posted May 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 (edited) You are now in Moria, the ancient home of the dwarves. Feel free to RP the jouney in there, with any details you want to include. You may explore the rooms, and stop for either eating or sleeping. Just keep in mind that you'll be going down for a while, and then upwards, through a labyrinthine series of stairs, corridors, and rooms. Below is a sketch of Moria, and a link for more info. The horses here might be assumed to have followed their owners, as it would be cruel to separate Warud and Horse-Brother from Seothen and Baelestimah. But *all* pack mules ran away at the first sign of the Watcher in the Lake (the tentacled monster). Sweet, you are free to RP Stoomp as a ghost, following the Company if you so wish (and I hope you do ). Moria, from The Atlas of Tolkien's Middle Earth Information on Moria: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moria_(Middle-earth) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Scorecard The Company of the Ring... Gryphon => Mattias, Elf (male) Finnius => Filkiormous Magnanimous Berrison, hobbit from the Shire Mynx => Jagkatha, Elf (female) Akallabeth => Turin of Dol Amroth, human, Dúnadan Giles => Baelestimah, Elf of Rivendel (male), servant of Arwen Patrick => Seothen, son of Seoras, Rohirrim Venefyxatu => Neriam Therzyn, son of Elwen Therzyn, human Panther =>Garnorn, human Ranger (male) Vahktang => Yeager Tickle-Bottom, hunter, hobbit from the Shire Ayshela => Linador, horse-master elf (male) from Rivendell Gyrfalcon => Frerin, dwarf from the Kingdom under the Mountain (male) Sinsor => Irvin Bartholomew Muskfoot, Hobbit of The Shire Katzaniel => Rootmaker, ent(wife) Phoenix => Megwyn, human, Ranger (female) Ozymandias => Jin, son of Jalen, dwarf ... and those who left Savage Dragon => Raus Tanathos, lost during an avalanche at Caradhras Sweetcherrie => Stoomp, taken by the Watcher of the Lake, Moria Edited May 12, 2006 by Tanuchan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLJordan Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 question did Baelestimah's pack horse join them or only Horse Brother? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetcherrie Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 I've guided Stoomp into the Pen Keep...I kinda liked him too much to let him die like this. He might make an appearance later on...depending on if he remembers that he still needs to bring Jagkatha flowers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuchan Posted May 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 question did Baelestimah's pack horse join them or only Horse Brother? Oopsie... I didn't know he had a pack horse... I'll leave the decision in your hands! I don't know if Ferret and Hawk were on his horse or the pack horse... and being an elf, Baelestimah might have had the skill to lead the pack horse while keeping contact with Horse-Brother. Who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katzaniel Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Didn't expect that? Didn't I post saying that I would? Beside, you can't have an Ent in the party and expect him to cower away from a threat like that. I had enough trouble explaining why he didn't attack immediately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayshela Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Giles - Linador can bring your pack horse in, but I won't have time for a post until later this afternoon. If you'd rather I not, just let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayshela Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 cool. my day kind of ran away from me, so I've not gotten a chance to yet, but will get that up tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayshela Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Got it. Aaaand - it's a full moon, will our werewolves be howling? (sorry, just noticed that while outside, and couldn't resist.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuchan Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 (edited) Hehe... full moons are lovely Well, as I see that people seem to be busy around this weekend... I'm extending the current day phase for about 48 hours or until I get 9 stated votes/abstentions - whichever comes first. Vahk has nicely posted that the Company is now traveling through Moria - so have fun on your journey! Edited May 13, 2006 by Tanuchan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayshela Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 *laughs* wonder how many of us were having so much fun with the story we forgot about voting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuchan Posted May 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 (edited) *grins* I'm glad you're having fun, and that's my best reward for modding But being practical, as this is a game... if I don't have votes at the end of the 48 hours... well... I've seen games where wolves lost a kill for not PMing the mod, but so far I've never seen a game where villagers have lost a lynching for not voting...

Vahktang Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 For some reason, it didn't take my reply or let me edit. Go figure. Anywho, my vote is for: Mynx => Jagkatha, Elf (female) Once again I vote first which makes me a target. But we are in the second day and I survived which means I can die a happy hobbit. Not that it means I actually want to die. Thats just an expression. I want to live! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough fun I ALMOST have NightFae convinced to try one of the next games. As for the practical - well, if we must. Though it looks fair to middling to run high on abstentions. For the "it's been a while since I've played" among us, how does that affect the tally of necessary votes for lynchings? IOW, do we need to start pestering the "I dunno" abstentions to throw the dice? *heh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be *so* glad if NightFae does join us in the games!! She'll have a great time, I'm quite sure of it! As for the practical - well, if we must. Though it looks fair to middling to run high on abstentions. For the "it's been a while since I've played" among us, how does that affect the tally of necessary votes for lynchings? IOW, do we need to start pestering the "I dunno" abstentions to throw the dice? *heh* I'm not sure I understood completely your musings here, but... I don't mind the abstentions in a game this big, and this early - and I know that as the game goes on, people will start voting. That's the reason why I ask for at least 9 stated votes or abstentions; the bad side being that it is perfectly possible to end up dead with just one vote... if there are, for example, 7 abstentions and 2 different votes. So... if you (players) don't want a person dying on one vote, I advise you to vote ("you" being a generic you, and not Ayshela specifically) Vahk - nice idea for a battle! Have fun! Day phase goes on for another 10-15 hours most probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayshela Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 gotcha... I was wondering if that was a *total* of abstentions and votes, so that it was possible to have eight abstentions and one vote and that vote be the sole deciding factor. Just got everyone pretty well cleared through here for the day, and Broken_Inside decided to do most of the kitchen cleanup for me, so I'm going to take my aching back and lie down for a bit, but WILL be back with a vote post before deadline.

Ayshela Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Question? Is Rootmaker male or female? I've seen him/her/it referred to as both male and female and it's quite confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuchan Posted May 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Question? Is Rootmaker male or female? I've seen him/her/it referred to as both male and female and it's quite confusing. Well, it seems Katz was a bit confused herself... hehe... But Rootmaker is male - Katz didn't want to have to justify all the Entwives' story...

Vahktang Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 (edited) I was hoping someone else would say what was coming. I left it open for that. I'm thinking either lots of goblins or a really, really big centipede. Going for the goblins. OK, there's the set up. Somebody else get us out of this.

Tanuchan Posted May 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Well, writing battles is out of question for me... soooo... unless you want a simple "the battle was quick once Rootmaker decided to have fun", please someone write down ideas... And sorry, I won't be able to close day phase right now in spite of the number of votes being above minimum... lots of stuff work-related to be done. I'll end the phase in six hours, give or take.
