Welcome to all newcomers I haven't welcomed. May you enjoy your stay amongst the dead.

Hi, I'm Lote....I'm wilwa and waynes sister.
I've only seen the movies but I really loved them!!
I've decided to join the downs because they always talk about it, and I wanted to see what it was like.
I hope I'll have a lot of fun!!!
:) :D

A big welcome to Taralphiel, Rainmaker, Kohran, and Lote! (Hey Lote... I'm jealous... I wish *I* had a cool LotR family. ;) )

Oh yeah it's really awesome..
and this is how you pronounce my name: low-tay.

oh joy another member of the Wilwa and Wayne Entourage... to bad your name didn't start with W, you could be like the three W's... but no your just WWL...

That means of course that the three of them shall have to joint mod the 50th game of Werewolf. It's been fated.

We just have to convince our parents to join, then we'll be a whole Barrow family!

Yes WW50. At the rate we're going it shouldn't be to much longer. ;)

Hope you enjoy it here sis!

Evening folks.
 

Hey. I'm new, as you can pretty plainly see. I still haven't had a chance to really look around the place yet. Roa_Aoife asked me to come and play here a little.

Not too much to say about me. You can get my attention with 'Bes', since it's alot shorter to type out. 22, male, absolute nerd... Been into the series ever since my dad showed me the British animation version of The Hobbit when I was a kid. I still have it on Cassette, somewhere here. Been rokeplaying different places on the internet since I was about 11, and I still like it.

So, ah. Hi.

Welcome to our newest members, Besyanteo and Lote. Lote, I know you've heard all about this site from a few people (coughWILWAcoughWAYNEcoughMEcough) and I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Besyanteo, just peek around everywhere. Join an RPG, a WW game and find your favorite haunts. Welcome to the Down's to both of ye.

welcome Besyanteo! any friend of Roa... is well a friend of Roa!

You joined you joined you joined! *bouncebouncebouncebounce* Yay!
I love you too, Gil.

Oooh, another potential victim for Werewolf Madness! Welcome, Besyanteo. Has Roa introduced you to the wonders of that addicting game yet? :D I happen to be running the next game that will be starting, so this my official Shameless Self Promotion. ;)

By the way, Besyanteo is an interesting screenname, how'd you pick it?

I hope you do too - and maybe you will love the books too in time!!!!

Welcome Lote and Besyanteo!!!

I'm friends with everybody, unlike icky ol' Gil. :p Jump in, get your feet wet, and I hope your death is pleasant!

Greetings,

I am Smaug and I layed lowed the warriors of old... Mwwwhahaha!

Sorry about that. I'm glad I have joined this most excellent Tokien discussion form. It demonstrates that there are tons of other fantatics out there, and even better, all gathered in one unique place. See you around guys :)

Welcome Smaug! I think you'll find we have fanatics to spare. Be careful, some of us do bite. (Just look at our slogans.)

I don't bite. I puree my victims and slurp.

;)

Welcome Smaug!

Oh! Totally forgot to introduce myself. What a shame...

Hello, dear Barrowdowners!

Though already 27, I only came across Tolkien and The Lord of the Rings when the movies came out. I quickly absorbed LotR, then the Hobbit, then the Silmarillion and so on. It is such an amazing and deep world Professor Tolkien invented, I cannot put it in words.

The Downs caught my attention because of Guinevere, who, in a german LotR forum we both participate in, frequently mentioned just how wonderful the Downs are.
I have to agree.

Which German forum, Macalaure? I checked out one or two back when I came here, but never warmed up to any of them. I also have the problem that I never read the books in German,; having read them in English first, I couldn't bear to plow through the translations. I am, however, a member of the German Tolkien Society.

It was the forum of Herren des Westens (and Elronds Rat, they partially share their forums). It's not that populated, but very nice.
I also published some fanfiction stories on the page.

I read the books in german first (the Krege translation, unfortunately), not knowing back then whether I would like it. Now that I've got the original I'm afraid the translation will only catch dust.

Hi Macalaure! Well met again! :) I'm glad you found your way to the Downs.

People seem to be coming in from all the doors and windows - like a spring breeze would be tossing them into this direction! And that's just absolutely fabulous!

A warm welcome to you all: Lote, Bes, Smaug and Macalaure!

As some have already suggested, do join every discussion, try the games (WW is just so addictive!), and especially RPG's - go to the Green Dragon and begin your wandering around this life after death... :cool:

Enjoy!

welcome Smaug and Macalaure! i hear the buffet is to die for... literally...

Wecome!

Thanks for the welcome, I know I'll enjoy dying. :D

Death is fun. *waits impatiently for mine*

Aiya !
 

Aiya !!!!

Hail, people of Barrow Downs. Much i've heard about ye but only now i got to join.
I expect to receive and share a bit of knowledge and fun in any way i can offer ^^

Ah, sorry !
I am Yuukale Narmo, wanderer and bard o' elvish lore, pleased to meet ye.
Now i wander in brazilian lands, my (not so dear) homelands.

Ah! If anyone passing by here happens to be a member of the Elvenkindom.net forum, talk to me, we'll sure have lots of things to chat.

One more thing, no bard is bard without a song or a poem, so, here it goes.



I Eldamar Falasi
Aiwilindë Lindië An I Eldar
Eressëa Nainier Áva Hlandenë
Man Cenuva Sinar Sára Fëar ?

- Inye cenuva ! Quentën
An Úna Alassëa Nan....

(translation:
The shores of eldamar
birds sang for the eldar
lonely laments were not heard
who will see those bitter souls

- I'll see ! (I) spoke.
for i'm deprived of joy.)

PS: I know it's a sad poem, but so is my noldorin soul.


Namárië

Wow.... Just wow....

That's got to be one of the bests intros I've seen. I can see you're goiing to be a phenominal addition to the Downs. Welcome aboard, and glad to have you here!

welcome Yuukale Narmo and enjoy yourself, i see you are making yourself at home

Hi!
 

Hi everyone it's me the Sixth Wizard! ;)

A.K.A The BIGGEST TOLKEIN FAN EVA!!!!!!!!!!

:)

Oops, that didn't come out right, I am a very dedicated Tolkien fan don't get me wrong.

And so I shall recite the entire History of Middle Earth and Arda from the Beginning.

"And so, the great god of the Valar, Iluvatar, said 'Ea!' (Be!') and the Arda, (universe) was created.

And Aule the Smith created Middle Earth, for Aule was one of the twelve who were created, the Valar, and he adored all things metal and beautiful...

<Other non-Tolkien people walk off in disgust>

Woah, how many people just joined? :eek:

Welcome to all of you! Spread out, find some friends and enjoy. And don't worry, our bites are worse than our barks *howls*.

Agreed Kath! We're getting an abundance of new members! I thought this was the Season of Love (HA!! I just named a song from Rent!! HA!!)!? Not the Season of New Members!! Ok, that was lame but you know what I mean! Anyway, welcome to all new members! :D
