I have no idea. I'm not even sure what's going on anymore... :confused:

Character Description for Bellatrix coming up...

littlemanpoet 09-21-2006 07:57 PM

Sorry, my creative juices have been running a little dry lately (or rather I should say they've been running to Books :rolleyes: ) Annnneeeeewaaaay... :p I'll try to get up something about asceticISM and fanaticISM and stoicISM and nationalISM and all the rest soon; oh, not to mention lycanthropISM. :D

Feanor of the Peredhil 09-21-2006 10:28 PM

Yeah, don't forget that lycanthropism. ;) :)

Sorry I'm not here to nudge; college is being downright distracting. :rolleyes:

NAME: Bellatrix Lestrange, neé Black

AGE: Bellatrix would never tell, and would kill anyone who asked.

RACE: Human and Pureblood Wizard

GENDER: Female

WEAPONS: A slender, pitch-black wand which she flexes about at moments of stress. Without it she is still capable of casting quite a lot of magic, but is weakened. She also possesses a bullwhip for special occasions and has mastered the use of a Beretta pistol.

APPEARANCE: Bellatrix was once a universally acknowledged beauty, and is still pretty dashed glamorous in a wasted, Baudelaire muse sort of way, though her thirteen years in Azkaban have lined her face and left her with dramatically hooded eyes. She wears a tattered black dress, fishnet stockings and stiletto heels that, naturally, contain stiletto daggers. She reminds the viewer, strangely, both of Helen McCrory and Helena Bonham-Carter.

PERSONALITY/STRENGTHS/WEAKNESSES: Bellatrix is one of the greatest living experts in the Dark Arts. She is also a mistress of Occlumency and knows a bit of Legilimency, though she’s secretly embarrassingly bad at it. Her weaknesses include a propensity to arbitrarily worship tall, dark, evil figures, addiction to pretty much everything, and a character about as sweet and loving as an anaconda.

HISTORY: Bellatrix has badly gone to seed while waiting for Book 7. Getting bored of the dead weight of her husband Rodolphus, she got a cheap divorce at Lost Angles and found on her wanderings in search of Dark Lords to worship the Evil Single Ladies Motel. Here she resided for a long while, hanging out with Jadis, the Lady of the Green Kirtle, Mrs Coulter, Rosa Klebb and Shelob. It was a wild life and has steeped her still further in decadence, but after a row with Jadis she left for the castle of the King of Mordor himself...

Formendacil 09-24-2006 01:37 PM

Filled my Save- and with half an hour to spare.

Go me!

Celuien 09-24-2006 07:07 PM

Save filled. I wonder what the something big will be...

Lhunardawen 09-25-2006 06:12 PM

Form...I was just wondering where Elrogorn got his horse. ;)

Ummmmmmmm.....

Ah, I know.

It appeared, suddenly, and unnoticed by Hyarmenwë and Maika when it was Assigned to Mordor for being a talking horse. Named "Staddle". Yeah, that's it.

Meaning... I don't know, but discontinuity is Mordor's stock in trade. Don't worry about it. Your post can deal with the interior the tavern and such, and I can follow up with the rubber were-duckie in the post thereafter. And having a talking horse for Elrogorn might be just what he needs.

Lhunardawen 09-25-2006 07:00 PM

Excuses. :p

My post might take a relatively long time to come up, what with the term having two weeks left. Unless I skip on my Chem revisions. Hah.

Feanor of the Peredhil 09-27-2006 06:22 AM

I've deleted my save because I haven't got time to fill it in just now, or within the next few days. Carry on without me.

littlemanpoet 09-27-2006 09:40 AM

But I thought cats live to be bored, Diamond. ;)

Hookbill the Goomba 09-27-2006 10:14 AM

I've filled my save with rubbish. :p

As usual.

littlemanpoet 09-27-2006 07:32 PM

Problem, Hooky, Roggie's been king of Mordor for only one year, and he resided elsewhere in Mordor than Mount Doom (or Zoom) before a year ago.

EDIT: I've posted up. If anybody wants to interact, you have an opening.

JennyHallu 09-28-2006 07:40 PM

Hey, y'all, I'm back.

Lola's waiting for someone specific, so hold on. Should be a lovely surprise.

There is nothing quite as annoying as a truly bored cat. They follow you around, meowing, but they don't want to go outside and they don't want to eat and they don't want to sit still on your lap. *shakes fist* Anyway, the only thing that makes a bored cat happy is knocking dishes over or... but maybe I should just write up a post to illustrate.

Right... I'll make some adjustments.

Eomer of the Rohirrim 10-01-2006 06:08 AM

My PC is now unbroken. I can maybe start moving again. :)

Anguirel 10-02-2006 03:22 AM

Save filled. Dracomir's loyalties are, if not revealed, at least enlarged upon...

Feanor of the Peredhil 10-02-2006 06:33 AM

Ah, Dracomir's loyalties...

:D

Have I ever offered to marry you, Ang?

Rune Son of Bjarne 10-02-2006 06:42 AM

Rune Son of Bjarne

Name: Frej Baldersbane (Spie of Mordor)

Age: 20

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Weapons: A Sword, in length 37" with deep fullers running the length, with a single handed hilt.

Appearance: Frej is 6’3’’ tall and slender build yet fit. He has long blond hair and bright blue eyes. In these days he is probably the closest one would come to an elf. However he does lack the splendid voices of the fair people and when he sing people run of screaming, it has been suggested that it is the very reason that he ended up in Mordor.

PERSONALITY/STRENGTHS/WEAKNESSES: Although his name suggests it, he has never killed anybody and probably never will, he is a spy not a worrier. If needed he can wield a sword with great skill, but he prefers not to. By his work as one of Allis spies Frej has learned not to trust people, it has been a tough battle for him to adapt this skill as it goes against his very trusting nature. Sometimes he falls back into his old habit of trusting people, but he does his best to hide it from his employer. He has a ambivalent relationship to his spymaster. At once he is intrigued by her, wanting to please her and do whatever he can to complete the tasks he is given by her satisfactory and still he is frightened and intimidated by her and feel a bit of despise towards her for not recognising his value.

HISTORY: Frej was assigned only a mere 5 years ago, the rumours will know it was for starting something called a rock band. Other rumours say that that the other band members escaped assignment as they were actually talented, nobody really knows and Frej is certainly not going to tell.

Feanor of the Peredhil 10-02-2006 06:52 AM

I approve. Just don't forget to get rid of your sig on game posts.

Rune Son of Bjarne 10-02-2006 06:56 AM

Sorry about that, I was about to remove it when I discovered something that needed correcting and then I forgot.

I hope that I haven't made a mess out of things, by not putting up a save after Jenny's post.

Anguirel 10-02-2006 07:13 AM

For the record, Fea, I think I've already asked for your hand several times through various personae, but you haven't up till now taken the initiative yourself...

Oh, do slap my wrist lightly for the sad overlooking of it all...

I just wasn't ready for the commitment before now. ;)

And no worries, Rune. If it bother anybody too much, we can always shuffle the order of posts. But it's not a big deal.

Rune Son of Bjarne 10-02-2006 09:52 AM

ok good :)

I know the joke is "a moose once bit my sister" but I have a personal prefference for the name Elk.

Feanor of the Peredhil 10-02-2006 10:51 AM

Save filled. Fast, too. Go me!

Lhunardawen 10-02-2006 11:23 PM

W-what in Arda...! Rune, you sneaky little...

Feanor of the Peredhil 10-03-2006 08:57 PM

My 'downs time for the next few weeks is self-inflictedly minimal. I've got a huge project with an outcome that can very easily affect the next few years of my life. No exaggeration. *grumble*

Anyhow... carry on without me. Y'all do beautifully without my help. If you do, perchance, need something... leave me a message on MSN or PM me and I'll try to get back to you quickly.

Celuien 10-04-2006 09:39 AM

A most fitting end for the news crew, lmp. :D

My save will be filled tonight.

Anguirel 10-05-2006 05:44 AM

Save filled. Dracomir doesn't like love rivals.

JennyHallu 10-05-2006 06:15 AM

Those poor little boys. If they're very lucky, Lola might acknowledge their existence. Or she might flirt and entice and lead them on and then crush them later with a "can't we just be friends?"

EDIT: or worse...a "you're just like a brother to me"

Hookbill the Goomba 10-05-2006 01:15 PM

I have filled my save.

I do hope that I have not made your character, LMP, too... well... out of character, if you see what I mean. My intention was to draw attention to how Smilog is an altogether loathsome person and incredibly annoying. Weather or not he can see your character is irrelevant at this time. I hope his out bursts are acceptable, given the frustrating nature of the events and the character of Smilog. :D

littlemanpoet 10-05-2006 01:43 PM

Hee hee! :D Funny stuff. But I would appreciate if you could un-comic-book-ize Anakron juuuuust a wee bit:

"You! Dwarf!" Anakron called, turning to the dwarf, "You ignored me. Why?"

Anakron stared at the Dwarf, hardly believing his eyes and ears. "How can you be certain?"

Anakron's teeth clenched and his brow lowered menacingly. "Do you not know who I am?" he grated.

Anakron ignored her.

"Dwarf! Come back here!" he called. Smilog stopped and turned around. Anakron felt suddenly vindicated and said with a note of triumph, "So, you have been ignoring me!" He paused for effect, then in a growl said, "You will pay."

Anakron nodded patiently. "Just answer my question."

"No wonder people assault him with such regularity!" said Anakron.

I um guess that's quite a bit of editing, but well, that would put him more in character..... :p

Hookbill the Goomba 10-05-2006 01:51 PM

Okay then Mr. Poet.

I've made the changes. http://forum.barrowdowns.com/ubb/icons/icon14.gif

Hope it's satisfactory. :D

Feanor of the Peredhil 10-05-2006 03:42 PM

Idea: Ang and Rune, would you find it as amusing as I would if you grouped up to find Alli? Travel buddies. *evil grin*

Not that you need to, but I had a brief vision and it made me laugh.

Anguirel 10-05-2006 03:45 PM

Perfect. Even better if Lola comes with us.

Lhunardawen 10-05-2006 11:03 PM

Post up. Finally.

piosenniel 10-06-2006 01:58 AM

Just a reminder:


Rune Son of Bjarne 10-06-2006 04:35 AM

haha I was actually planning to go on this adventure with Lola. . .I guess an extra companion would do just nicely.
