OK, I am starting to work on the planning post. I am going to put it up a chunk at a time in one space and revise it as I go along.... I'll let you know when it is actually finished (though you are welcome to read my half done, pre-revision chicken scratches along the way).
First I want to make sure where everyone is. I read back over the thread and also considered how injured someone was. Based on that, this is my best guess as to who is going where.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I HAVE FORGOTTEN SOMEONE OR PLACED YOUR CHARACTER IN THE WRONG LIST. I WILL CHANGE OR ADD AS SOON AS YOU TELL ME.

Is this right?
Durelin, Nogrod - Will you both be carrying Beloan, or just one of you?
Of those in the scouting party, who would be the one to first discover a sleeping/drunk orc and draw his/her sword to slay him? Would this be one of the characters listed or a NPC we devise? Which of our characters would realistically do this?
We seem to have a shortage of "real" males in the scouting party. I think they all fought so bravely that many were wounded.

Are there any more "real" males going with the scouting party or will we be using NPC's for that purpose?
