'Tis not my idea, Aman. I can't claim ownership of "To Rescue Celebrian". The premise comes straight from LoTR. A stray paragraph in one of the appendices tells how Celebrian was captured by Orcs while traversing the Redhorn Pass en route to Lorien.

The Appendices contain many snippets of stories that could easily sustain lengthy RPGs. An idea for a game can come from a single line in The Tale of Years. Or a bit of conversation between characters in Unfinished Tales. Anyone interested in the tragic death of King Arvedui? The cats of Beruthiel?

I would like to hear what people think of mentoring or co-owning games; that is teaming up either with an experienced gamer or a less experienced person to run the game and provide assistance to the participants.
