I will not be a religious leader, but a Union leader/boss or what they are called in english.

Excellant. Rune, you and I need to go have a little chat with my employer, who is attempting to become my ex-employer.

A Pearl Diver, eh? Now that takes me back to the days when we was sailing the seas far south, in the ocean that lies off Far Harad. The things that dwelt in those seas you wouldn't believe. Oysters as big as houses, there were. And the pearls! Larger than you could imagine they were. Dangerous they were to get hold of, mind you. Them oysters could take yer arm off. Happened to our second mate, it did. Took is arm right off it did. Took it off, I tell thee. I was more lucky mind. Managed to grab three of the beauties, I did. Three of them, I tell thee. Mind you, I lost them when we fell foul of them nasty Haradrim pirates some days later. Cast adrift we were. Those of us that they didn't toss to the sharks, that is. Tossed 'em to the sharks they did. And the size of them sharks! Well, you wouldn't believe it it you saw it. Cast adrift for eight weeks we were, with them bloomin' great sharks circling us every day. Eight days being circled by sharks the size of Oliphaunts, I tell thee. It was a wonder we survived. Many of us didn't, mind.

And you talk to me of Unions, young Gurthang me lad. We didn't have unions to help us grab them pearls or fight off them Haradrim pirates or ward off them flippin' great sharks. No, we didn't 'ave no unions in them days, I tell thee. Now get away with thee, and we'll have no more talk of Unions. Unions! Tsk. Them and their health and safety rules. There'll be no more diving for pearls if they have their way. We will be shipbuilding. With all the will in the world. Diving for dear life. When we could be diving for pearls.

Or maybe it's just a rumour that was spread around town.

Unions! Tsk! Whatever next?

If space should suddenly by some miracle become available, I'd love to join in. If not, that's ok too, I can always wait for next time

I'll be the town fiddle player. Not sure if thats how you spell fiddle, I'm speeking of the stringed instrument.

So would that be fiddler or fiddlelist or fidlist maybe? Also not sure of the proper title but that's what I'll be!

I need some sleep.

Ah, the evocative sound of the lone fiddle. Puts me in mind of the time we was sailing ...

*The harbourmaster disappears under a hail of assorted lobster-pots, oars, lambs, oyster-shells, crabs, crates, fishing nets and union membership cards.*

TGWBS and Azaelia - and anyone else who wants to join a game - Sleepy Ranger is still recruiting for his game over on the Werewolf Junior thread.

Alcarillo · 11-28-2005, 09:39 PM

Great roles, everybody!

The Saucepan Man – harbormaster
Mormegil - repairman specializing in ships and docks.
Formendacil – disgruntled office clerk
Kath – bum
Dancing spawn of ungoliant
WaynetheGoblin - doctor
Rune Son of Bjarne – Union leader
Gurthang – (possibly unemployed) dockhand
Aiwendil – retired tutor
Folwren
Boromir88 – crab farmer
Wilwarin538 – fiddler
Lhunardawen – polite little shepherd girl
Holbytlass – butcher
Fordim Hedgethistle – pearl diver

Attention! If you have not yet chosen an occupation, I will make one up for you! And it'll be boring and unexciting!

The game will start on 3 December, at midnight for those of you in England. So sorry to make some of you (like Rune) stay up so long into the wee hours of the morning, but that's the best time for me. The game will begin with a NIGHT phase, for the wolves to get to know one another and the seer to make a dream.

By the way, I shall be the local tax collector.

mormegil · 11-28-2005, 10:31 PM

Is that midnight EST?

Gurthang · 11-28-2005, 10:35 PM

So that would be...what exactly in my time? I'm guessing about 6:00 in the morning. But that's alright, I'll figure it out when the game starts, as I have every other time I've played. (BTW, I'm in Central Time, US, but I'm not sure what that exactly is compared to world time.)

Thats a perfect time for me. The other games I have played in changed about 3-4 am and adicted as I was/am I stayed up not to miss anything.

Warning to Saucepan Man: You better start treating your employees according to the collective agreement or you will have a strike on your hands.
