Matey?

Should I find myself a peg leg, a drunken parrot and a bottle of rum, yo ho ho? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Hmmmm, interesting thoughts I must say. This realm would be reasonably close to the Grey Havens and the borders of the Shire... Being 12 F.A, the outposts at Fornost (Deadman's Dike) and Annuminas would have a lot of work to do to keep their bounds secure against incursion.

But, I like the challenge of having to get up to and then travel back from the northern most tip of the Emyn Uial. Plus, it will be chilly... Forochel's Bay is called Ice Bay on my, non glossy atlas map in practical earthy hues of brown and beige and ecru ( [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] me jealous of your map - nah, mate).

That makes for a range of terrain and climatic challenges alone to be dealt with by the party. What's more, there's the heightened risk of this dark realm that is being founded to add excitement. It's nice and handy to Carn Dum for a historical link to earlier grim realms of evil folk.

Plus the entire range of the Evendim Hills will be at our disposal for the search, attack, flee scenarios.

In short, me likes those ideas of yours. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Pio Thanks for the map! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
