Sound excellent - scandal and treachery! I would expect nothing less of you

Go with that, and I apologise: I will try to get up a post as soon as I can, tomorrow night ideally if I don't have too much homework and extra stuff. (Such as restringing my cello...ooohbother...)

Aman, so relieved to see you back. We must play chess!

Indeed, over tea and crumpets apparently. Yeah, I heard that tone of voice. But yes, please do make that post - looking forward to this.

With all these missing people, would it be an idea to maybe send a request out to see if any other Downer's want to take over the characters that are now ownerless? If this is a stupid idea feel free to ignore it, I just wondered if it might be worth it seeing as quite so many people seem to be disappearing.

Okay, I've finally the written the post that I've been meaning to write since, oh, before Christmas.

I didn't see much point in prolonging battle planning, being that Perky is not here and I'm not much of a tactician. So Menelcar's off to find Hereric again.

Kath, I think finding a Chakka replacement would definitely be good, but I will have killed off Azaryan by midday!

EDIT: Firefoot, you seem to have mentioned the Gondorians possessing more NPC ships. Does this mean we Corsairs can have some too? Pretty please...

Firefoot · 01-05-2006, 06:58 AM

I don't see why not. I had already assumed you had some, anyway.

Anguirel · 01-05-2006, 07:01 AM

Rereading what pio said, maybe I should make Azaryan's death more ambiguous. But I like what I've done so I'll wait to be specifically prodded...

I haven't gone and read what's been added to the RPG itself yet, but before I left this thread, I figured I could voice an idea that just popped into my head.

Kath, I think it's a good idea to try to find replacements for our players. Evidently, it seems that Fordim's the most missed (at this point). . .we could try getting Arry into it. He's just finished an RPG, and I don't think. . .though I'm not possitive. . .I don't think he's in any other game in the Shire at present.

Now, off to read the RPG. . . see what Firefoot's been doing on my ship.

Lol, haven't yet read your post, Anguiriel, but yes, ambiguousity (I dub thee a new word!) would probably be good: allow for gruesome twists of plot. Muahaha.

Kath - not at all a stupid idea! And do you know, I have the perfect player in mind, although she may be a little less than willing at first - I shall PM her directly to see whether she would be willing to. I'll PM Arry as well - well suggested, he's another player I particularly enjoy writing with - and the two of them...well, first come first served over who gets Chakka and who gets Ferethor - Chakka is a more developed character, plot and history wise, but Ferethor has a fair amount of potential. Missing anyone else? Would it be appropriate to take over Perky's character, or can he be carried?
