Whoa Groin!!!

Plain marvellous!

And I must say Stigend is just superb! I had thought of him a bit leaner in overall appearance but more or less along those lines... Great!


On other news... The new party will enter today. I'll write the post in the coming hours after doing away with a few smaller assignments relating to my work.

Thanks y'all for the kind comments--I thought you'd like them.

That is one of the main reasons I drew these, so that it could help me remember what the characters look like (I hope that the drawings aren't too far off). Glad it helps you too, Legate.

He's just got a fat head, that's all.

In that case, I'm going to do a quick post for Erbrand early in the morning. Eonwe and I are doing something with Dan, Erbrand, and the Oeric character (I've PMed Shaggydog twice about it, no response).

The new eorl and his entourage is finally in!

I tried to write that post in a way that everyone could have a chance of getting something to do with some other writers.

There are the "important people" planning things in the Mead Hall, there are the kitchen-things to unload with kitchen staff (and a feast to be prepared), there are the supplies for the craftsmen to unload as there are horses to tend as well. Aedre and the grumpy old "uncle Fulcher" (thanks Groin for the great character!) are just idling about for anyone to contact them.

Or if anyone wants to make a contact to any "unknown soldier" - either one who is going to stay or one who is going to leave tomorrow - just invent things!

Have fun!


I'll send a few thoughts / ideas concerning that table of the leaders in the Mead Hall in a short while... but others should feel free to post whatever you think would be fun!

And when will Erbrand - or anyone else talk about our "old friend" E just met in the morning? Up to you guys...

Don't take this literally... Pick any of the things mentioned or start a totally new discussion... We can take many of those things Athanar listed as "granted" in the actual thread.

Also Lommy & Dury & Mnemo - feel free to write your characters into that discussion...



Everyone:

Relating to those question cited above by Athanar: what comes to the stage of the building-work we could come up with some common consent on those here in the discussion thread.

Also Erbrand's experience should be brought forwards one way or another at some point - well, wherever. You can also discuss it outside the Hall itself to begin with... it should be the talk of the place anyway alongside the new eorl and his entourage,

Also feel free to come up with any suggestions on what else to bring forwards...


And really, from now on we're back to interaction with less pre-planning and more like giving others some bites and reacting to things.

I'll PM Eonwe. I'll see if we can do a flashback post between Erbrand and Dan and lead up to the present.
