Experimental Planning Thread: The Princess Guard

Yes, Cami [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img], those are really neat questions. This is the one that caught my eye first.

Is there some kind of a crisis or problem in Gondor where these feminine skills can be employed and lead up to a defined ending, perhaps even partially in the context of a party? Perhaps spying and untangling some diplomatic intrigue, with the help of friends and servants?

Has anyone read or seen the musical "The Scarlet Pimpernel"? It's hardly Tolkien, but the whole plot hinges around a scene at a masqued ball where Marguerite, the heroine does some hefty spy work. It's especially dramatic in the play version. This question brought that scene to mind. I think it would be really fun to set up this kind of conflict in an RPG...
