Now i'm the laggard!!!

Will try to get something on board tomorrow.

Mithalwen · 03-09-2011, 01:54 AM

Was beginning to worry you had been mown down by a marauding caravan

Durelin · 03-09-2011, 12:36 PM

Obviously I'm in no rush...

lol. Btw, sorry I didn't take things any further in my post, but I wanted you to be able to write your own official entrance rather than have Karl take some of the dramatics away by seeing Willem first.

(PS, try not to run over Duke, the dumb dog)

Envinyatar · 03-09-2011, 05:13 PM

Hey - we've made it to Page 2 of the RPG!!!!

So, I've made it that Karl and Willem are acquainted. You can make that part up as you wish.

Willem's an odd duck, himself.

Hurrah! And this should get us to Page 3 of discussion....rattling along now

I wonder what Jessamy's brothers will think when they catch up and find her in such company ..but that won't be just yet.
Or though if Willem turns out to be the fabled mad axe murderer it might never happen...

Meanwhile I'll have Jessamy come back to her senses a little - or as much sense as she ever had...

Edit... which isn't so much really. She now has a notion that Willem is Gandalf

Envinyatar · 03-11-2011, 06:45 PM

We're going into the caravan. Feel free to describe what Jess sees - you can make it as exotic (gypsy-like) and wondrous as you like.

We can either travel on immediately - or make a little fire and brew up a bit of tea with honey. Willem has a carved chest somewhere in the van filled with all sorts of teas and types of honey. and other things to eat - though no meat; he's a vegetarian.

Have at it

Mithalwen · 03-11-2011, 07:28 PM

Because he loves animals or because he hates plants I wonder...

Tea is good.. still can't quite believe people add honey to it... but I shall have fun with the caravan

Envinyatar · 03-16-2011, 08:11 AM

Jumble is most likely indoors - he likes his comfort.

Duke could be anywhere - your choice.

Envinyatar · 03-16-2011, 04:12 PM

These are Jess' brothers, yes?

Silas
Bryn
Seth
Filbert

The first three are more or less adult and Filbert is ?around Edwin's age??

And all four are searching for her on the Downs?

Mithalwen · 03-16-2011, 04:32 PM

Silas is 25 , married, woodman,
Seth 22/23 works the farm with his Dad
Bryn 19-20 apprentice smith
Filbert is 15 dogsbody at the pony

Do you need any more? I don't have to invent it only write it down!

Only the eldest three are searching... Filbert is sweating it out in Bree having to explain the situation to their Pa...

I am in the midst of their (eldest three's) post - shall I get them to the van or are they likely to be intercepted by a tall, dark stranger?

Oh like the new sig btw - to mark Owen's birthday on Friday?
