A Change in Plans

Due to circumstances beyond my effective control, we're going to take a break from the "Test" pattern of ATM. From today until January 2, 2006, Anakron will have given the Offending Party "a couple days" off from the Challenge. Feel free to post as often or seldom as you like.

Your characters must remain at Mount Doom Casino and Resort, and vicinity. Here's a geography for your rpging fun:

The great cataclysm of the destruction of the Ring caused the Sea of Nurn to expand westwards, then northwards, such that it now extends between the western mountain range (no books with me so I can't bring up all the names) of Mordor, and the arm that extends northeast before halting, separating "Nurnia" from the desolation of Mount Doom. The Sea of Nurn widens and extends northeastward, coming within 25 miles of Mount Doom on the western side. Between the Sea and Mount Doom lies the new city of Lost Angles, wherein lies Trollywood, the centre of the film industry of Mordor, such as it is. You guys drove in on the east side, even if you thought otherwise. At this northern extremity, the Sea is called the Pathetic Ocean, since it's way too small to be a real ocean, so it got to be said about it, "how pathetic", and the name stuck. So what if it's circular logic? I'm the moderator. nya.

That's it for now. Have at it. From time to time I'll add pieces of info such as geography, this, that, and the other t'ing.

So be ready to start back up ON January 3.

Have a happy Christmas!
