Golden Perch Discussion Thread

[Mithalwen]

so we will be back very soon - I just need to decide how we have spent our lost time. I have read through quickly and it seems that we have only lost a day since we got stuck in dead end conversations on page 11 (ca post 430-something). Is that possible?

[Envinyatar]

I must admit that I have no idea of where the timeline is for the Inn. And probably should apologise, since I most likely pushed it ahead a fair number of days with the return of my character to the Inn from some business in Bree in this post .

My bad!

[Rose]

Sorry, I don't quite know "when" we are, either. Only that it's morning at the Inn.

Undómë - I have Rowan and Prim making their way out of the common room. Alright?

Granny Greenhill is following along to see what they're up to.

Don't worry I can be non-time specific. Given that it is so long ago and hardly any of those we interracted with still around it feels it should be longer. The young truants will have been apprehended by their aunt (the original RPG character Mithalwen, whose namesake has somehow taken over my life!!!), who will no doubt be rivalling Wooster's Aunt Agatha and giving them such a miserable time that time will have passed very slowly for them in deed.

Anyone want to apprehend the fleeing Hobbit in my recent post?

I've no idea if the fellow knows anything or not. If someone wants to make up a clue Mungo might give - go for it. We can take it from there.

[Rose]

Oh! Let Granny take a crack at tripping the scoundrel up!!!

Will post this evening if that's alright.

[Folwren]

Okay, chaps. I be back and have no idea what I missed. Will someone fill me in briefly? Who's here, what's happening, where's Dick?

Hmmm, well........

I think we've decided that time has moved forward a bit. It was rather vague, but enough to get us past the whole episode with the wolves.

At the top of the present page on the Inn game thread it's mid morning. Rowan and Prim got up late and discovered Cook is missing - vanished. Breakfast was more or less thrown together and served buffet style in the common room. Everyone at the Inn has been throwing out ideas about what might have happened to Cook. Most of which have no basis in reality.

Granny Greenhill (my character) has come to the Inn - she had the Shiriff sent for and suggested Will be sent to fetch back Hugh, the postman, since Rowan recalled that she'd seen Cook reading a fat letter Hugh delivered the previous day and Cook seemed to have reacted badly to what was in the letter.

So, Will's off to find Hugh (who, it's been decided, will most likely be found at Gardenia's Boffin's place northwest of Stock).

Hithadan, the ranger, has spied a suspicious Hobbit (Mungo Brandybuck) trying to sneak out of the Inn and calls for him to be held. Granny lays the fellow low and some unidentified fellows in the Inn drag him up to face the shiriff and the ranger.

None of us players know whether or not Mungo knows anything of importance, but someone can maybe make up something he's seen or heard on his nefarious nocturnal dealings on the night Cook disappeared. Whatever we find out from him, we can head off in that direction with the game.

Rowan and Prim have gone off to Cook's room to see if they can find any sort of clue.

There is also an Elf, Tavaro, who couldn't sleep during the night and was out wandering about. Maybe he will bring up something he recalls while he was out walking.

I don't think anyone has mentioned the Innkeeper. So I suppose you can just jump in as you want once you've read through the posts.

So, who's here: Envinyatar (Hithadan); Arry (Will); Undome (Rowan and Prim, now a sort of NPC); Lilly (Gardenia Boffin, Hugh Mossytoes the postman); Tam Lin (Tavaro the elf); Tiffany Aching (Miribelle Rushybanks); & me (Granny Greenhill). The Shiriff, Rusty Smallburrow, is a character I think Pio said we could all use now as long we make ourselves familiar with his original bio.

And, oh yes, I think Mithalwen has said she and Kath are going to pop back in at some point.

Hope that helps!

I'm glad to see the Golden Perch alive and well! There was very little activity during my stay at the Inn (one full RP Day), so I shall have to make a point of paying another visit eventually. I might have to talk to people instead of just killing things.

Looking forward to seeing the return of the sisters at some time.

'Bye for now!

[Folwren]

Alright! I've read through the whole last page (not caught up entirely on whats' happened since I was gone, but oh well) and I hope to post today. Thanks to everyone who mentioned my character the innkeeper a few times. I wasn't sure how I'd bring him back in, but now I realize I don't have to worry about it too much.

Looks great, and very interesting!
