I've just put up a post for Loni and Nali. Nali is talking to Folwren's character and Durelin's will soon be called into play. I thought that a little more interaction would be nice, so I added Korin to the council's members.:) Legate, let me know if I have overstepped my bounds with Loni, I do not know if the proposal he made would be in accordance with his character. |
Groin, when would you like me to write for Ori?
I'm afraid I won't have time to write for Vigdis today as I can't be making noise with typing much longer tonight and I have history homework to finish... but I will try to find time to write something for her tomorrow and if not then, I should have at least a little time on Friday... |

By the way, both Vigdis and Ori are so much going to love that wailing of the women and the special means to stall it... ;) :rolleyes: :D

AHA! I am FINALLY getting into this character! He is beginning to fit what I had originally imagined.
Okay, folks, I've posted again. Not that I needed to blare a trumpet or anything. Kitanna, I have joined the grandchildren and grandfather, and may now wait your response. Groin, I have answered Nali, but sent him off again. Kenan will soon be at your convenience. I think, though am not sure, that there will be some choice words spoken at this said council. Things may be...eh...interesting, shall we say? ;) I am looking forward to it. And, Arry I would have had more discussion with your character (I wanted to let you post again after Kenan got so heated), but since Groin had posted with Nali coming up, I didn't feel I could keep him waiting. However, if you think it likely (as I did) that Vitr would say something in response to Kenan's outburst of feeling, you can write something and PM it to me (or something) and I can edit it into my post. Whatever you want to do. I did not want to venture writing for your character. :) -- Folwren |

I was planning to write for Vigdis today but work exhausted me and writing Christmas cards took more time than I thought it would... I'll write for her tomorrow, and that's a promise I will keep. ;) |
I'm good to go again, hopefully I didn't leave you all having to stall too long. Nasty little court case that we had no business being at. The deputy who pulled over one of our drivers even said he wasn't sure what the law said but gave him a ticket anyway. :rolleyes:

I think it might be better if Oin informed everyone about the orcs...I mean Gror just knew there were a lot of them, that is if you want a detailed account from someone. Now, Gror can of course state his business for being in Moria in more depth, and perhaps (unintentionally of course :p) give the dwarves false hope that their fellows from Erebor will be coming? |
Groin - I left it open in my post whether or not Nali has left Korin and Kor. I think right now the siblings are perfectly capable of carrying on a conversation between themselves while Nali's still trying to talk to them. So up to you whether or not Nali has more to say.
|
I didn't mean to write a novel, but... :o

And really, everybody, I tell you, I love this RPG. :D |

Durelin, I'll have Nali stay and listen to Korin and Kor's conversation. He'll probably want to make sure that his idea gets to the council as soon as possible. |
Hey Groin, "whilst" is actually an archaic form of "while" rather than "will." :)

Just so you know, Gwath (you might have already seen this, but just as a reminder...), Tror has encountered Frar in the hall leading to the bridge of Khazad-dum. I hope that it was alright that I made that short little confrontation between the two, I remembered what you said about Frar beginning to devise a plan so I thought that I would use that in my post.:) Let me know what you think. |
Save filled! Lys and twins are safe at home.
The door is barred, though, so Vitr will have to knock, Arry! :) |
Looks good, Lilly. :)
Will try to get a post up sometime to day!! -- Arry |
So far we have Loni, Ori, and Gror ready for the council; and we are still waiting on Kenan, Tror, Frar, Nali, and Kori. Kenan comes in his own good time, I just need a response from Durelin and Gwathagor to get the council going, so whenever you two get the chance could you please post?:D I am rather anxious to get the council started (partly because I want to see what Lommy has planned), sorry if I'm pushing y'all around too much.
I'm loving these saved posts, can't wait to see them all filling up!:) |
Yes, and I'll be ready to have Gror give his limited information whenever we're ready. :p

Great posts everyone, the story is wonderful so far!

Durelin, nice job with Korin. It really cracked me up when she sloshed her beer all over Nali's boots, great stuff!:D |

Just one checking thing - Groin, Lommy, especially you two - do you have any more concrete idea how many Orcs approaching are we talking here? At least this party which Óin could see now. |
Quote:
But don't fret! I understand entirely. I've got finals this week, too, and haven't been able to write much as a consequence. We can wait until Thursday or whenever for your save to be filled. :) Good luck on your tests. -- Foley |
File saved. Errr, save filled. :) Now Óin may encounter yet something before he comes home, but at least I have time to focus also on the others, Onli (when he finishes what he is doing now) and also Lóni. Well, fine. Let's see how this goes :)
|
Hurrah! I've been keeping my eye on that post in hopes that it would be filled soon and I am glad to say that I was not disappointed. Well done, Legate.:)
Quote:
I will get a post up for Nali today and bring Korin, and possibly Kor, to the council. Gwathagor, I'm ready to begin the council after I post so if you want to get a response up for Frar that would be great! ;) |

Well, 5000 is quite a lot. It is half of what attacked Helm's Deep. Théoden came with 6000 riders to Pelennor. If this is going to be 5000, that would have to be everything that really came to Moria. I would imagine that the Orcs who later were in Moria did not come all at once. But okay, it could be several thousand, possibly. Or does anyone else have anything to say to that?
|
Perhaps I missed it, but - how many Dwarves are we thinking there are in Khazad-dum at present? And what would be the breakdown into #'s of men, women, children, do you think?
|
That is actually a good question. To the latter, certainly there will be far, far, far more men than women and children, if only because there were always too few women among Dwarves. I think it may be even something like 70% (or even 80?) of men, and some really small number of children (there should be even less of them than women - and far less, because for the time of the existence of the colony there hardly were more than a few born. If I say five children born there, then I am highly, highly overdoing it. And I don't think many parents with children would choose to venture into these uncertain, though of course legendary areas).
And the number of the Dwarves really should not be very big. We are certainly talking less than thousands here. But I am not really good in counting things like this. |
Also - is it a foregone conclusion that every one of the Dwarves in K-d dies? Any wiggle room there?
|
I filled in my save, finally. It's just a brief conversation between Kénan and Kéni.
|
Groin had an idea bout the numbers but as I'm bad with numbers I already forgot it. :rolleyes: It really doesn't matter much to me...

If we were to use this idea the only time that I think it probable is when the Dwarves try to exit the Hollin Gate and a few get past the Watcher in all the confusion. Although, this would mean that those survivors could not get in-touch with any civilization in the nearly sixty years that elapse between the fall of Balin and the coming of the Fellowship. If they were to come in contact with anyone I am sure that they couldn't help but spill the beans on the whole matter. Not to say that we couldn't do this, just thinking out-loud again.:cool: |
Great. I'll get Kenan moving within the next day or two and get him going towards the council.
-- Foley |
Finals: 0, Me: 1. Now, if only the Saints had a similar record...
Finally filled in my save and hopefully I'll have the chance to catch up on everybody's posts tonight and tomorrow. :) |
Nice post, Lilly! I'll try to continue the conversation from Vitr's side sometime later today.
"Wiggle room" - what might you be cooking up that you need it for? :) ----- Great posts, everyone! Am very much enjoying writing in and reading along on this game!! |
Lilly
What a bomb to drop on poor Vitr! :eek: I'll see what I can come up with for the sure-to-be duty-torn Dwarf. -- Arry :) |
