ROHAN DISCUSSION

[Estelyn Telcontar]

Very understandable, Thenamir – you have kept this RPG alive by sheer willpower for such a long time that you deserve a break! Several of us have brainstormed ideas on chat; here is what we have come up with:

List of characters and players –
Taradan and Andros – Estelyn (separated from the others, farther north; they will probably take Redhorn Gate across the mountains.

Guthrin – Rimbaud (will take off on his own, necessitating rescue, thus separating the group)

Elwood – Rimbaud
Volkmar – Ransom (Are you still playing, Ransom?)
Kalohern – Dwarin
Arenia – Leighlei (Are you still with us, Leighlei?)
Khelek - Great Warg

This group will go after Guthrin, taking a more northerly route over the mountains. Volkmar’s tracking ability as a Ranger is needed, and Elwood is along to make sure he can be trusted, since the Ranger is a stranger to the group as yet. Arenia will help with her knowledge of life in the wilderness, and Kalohern volunteers – well, we have realized that he wants to be where she is! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] This is his chance to prove his mettle. Khelek goes with them to scout; since he can only communicate with Elwood, it’s best to keep them together.

Thenamir – Thenamir
Dwarin – Dwarin
Haleth/Baranthol – shieldmaiden
Gurthden – Kate/onewhitetree
Ulfwine – Bethberry
The Ent – Bethberry (temporary character, will rescue all and lead this party out of Fangorn, but has to be convinced of the good cause first)

The main group is headed south for the Gap of Rohan, the usual passage to the lands west of the mountains. Whether or not they can go that way depends on what Saruman does – Orthanc is very close! We should move through the wilderness when we get beyond the mountains, avoiding cities and large settlements. Aelfritha, Bethberry’s new character, lives there somewhere and the main group will stock up on horses with her joining them when they get there.

Last but certainly not least, the only enemy that is being played by someone right now –

Borleg – Gandalf the Grey

If the Barrow-Wight wants to join at some time, playing one of the bad guys as an additional character would seem the best idea. Should we encourage someone to join in to play more enemy character(s)?

This should give us some impetus for awhile; questions and suggestions are welcome!
