I meant only that, the Rp'ing may be a little "weak" if no-one had ever Rp'ed an Ent before. As Bęthberry said, it would be hard, and I was merely agreeing. I would consider myself an able RP'er too, having done so to some lengths on the 'lotrplaza' site.
Please accept my apology if I came across rude, I did not mean too at all.

Oh, I didn't say no one had ever done an Ent character in an RPG on the Barrow Downs. I merely said they weren't common and that suggested that entwives would require great skill to portray.

Wow, talk about the difficulty in creating canonical characters in an RPG.

In fact, we have at least two Ent characters in games here, which I think are very ably drawn. Out of modesty, I name first
Child of the 7th's Age Peachblossom, in Threat of the Trees, a game which covers this very topic here, although from a different angle from that I considered. And an entwife no less!
The other is my own
Shepherd of the Trees, in the game Rohan, Treetop. Again, a game somewhat different from that contemplated here.
I thank you,
Manwë, for your clarification and apology. A less hasty reply often has merit. Perhaps you might enjoy reading over some of the extensive games here on the Downs? Active games are in The Shire, Rohan and Gondor forums, while completed games can be found in Elvenhome. You might even consider reading over the gaming rules in those active forums and taking a stab at a character in The Green Dragon or Rohan's new Mead Hall.
Hoom hah, sirrah!
