What do you think?
In general, I have confidence in your choice of writers, trusting that you choose sticklers for canon, those of high moral persuasion, comfortable with the herioc, etc. The whole "high, purged of the gross" bit.

My only reservation would be that Liornung belongs uniquely to Nuru. If she can't play him, I'd send Liornung back to Rohan before I gave him to someone other than Nuru. Regarding Leafa, I'd still prefer that Nuru have right of first refusal; but being that Leafa is Ædegard's flame, we can't exactly send her back to Rohan unless Ædegard goes himself. Hey! I still do Ædegard's code automatically. Alt-0198. Æ. Kewl!!!

Regarding some of your writers-- The other issue/ possibility is that the folk you have listed may not be the least bit interested in that character. Perhaps rather than insist on continuing every single character, we should allow for some Southern Gondorians, or some Dol Amroth Denizens, or renegade elves or ... something. Maybe we meet up with some southbound traders from Dol Amroth and friendly old Raefindan invites them along for company despite the rumblings from the other introverts. Anyway, a few fresh characters might be a (really) good thing. Worth allowing for.

Now for the honesty regarding schedules bit-- I will be lucky to post one or two times a week, on my lunch hour. So the game will either drizzle very slowly, or, flow despite me. Either way I guess that's okay. "Revenge of the Entish Bow" finally finished, and it moved slowly. Precedent set, as if we needed one.

So.... if this takes a long time to wind up and get going, that's okay.


EDIT:

ALAK!!!!! ALAK!!!!! WOW!!!!! She's BACK!!!!!! Okay, Alak gets Erebemlin and Taitheneb. GLEE!!!! WOW! ALAK, you don't know how glad I am to see your post. Obviously, I missed it -- assumed that lmp and I were the only ones posting. HI, ALAK!!!!
