Treachery of Men Discussion/Planning Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Oh dear. That is unfortunate, Durelin, and I am more than sorry to hear it. But, what must be must and a cracked egg cannot be mended.

Elempi, I am not willing to take Jord. Uldor is difficult enough for me.

I'll try to think of someone that can join the game and that would make another player which would be great...

The things started to look like they were unfolding at last but it seems I have lost nothing during my trip...

Okay. I hope you Foley get someone to play Jord or we do come up with a different solution to our problem here. I just don't think there is any reason for me to doublepost in the thread so I'll wait and see what you others come up with.

I hope to see you Dury back in action also here! But first things first.

Dury - We will miss you and hope things are going well.

If Imp is willing to play Jord, we could certainly do that.

Why not? With this pace we'd need all the effort to get us forwards.

Lalaith: I could have Fastarr meet Embla. He would be in a hurry to look after his lord and that might create some nice tension there and maybe we could be creating some new possibilities for Embla as well. I'd like to see you write the introduction to the scene so just write that Fastarr comes with full gallop and Embla manages to stop him... and whatever she then does. I'll answer that post asap. after it is posted.

Before I even begin to try to wrap my brain around Jord/Thuringwethil, I'd be interested to find out who Foley is thinking of to fill the role. I think there may be some clever-good writers out there who could do the trick and help enliven this rpg with some of their new spice.

Perhaps Encaitare? Diamond?

I'm quite sorry, everyone!

I had meant to get around to working on things for Treachery last week, but a resurgence of an illness I acquired some weeks ago has stalled any progress towards that. I have three large papers coming up (one due Dec. 4th and the other two afterwards), as well as the run-of-the-mill finals in the next three weeks.

As such, if an action requires Brodda, feel free to "use" him as needed until I can return. I'll try to get around to a post or two if possible in that span, but with the nastiness of this illness and the upcoming work getting to me, I may not be able to.

Perhaps after this spat of sickness and work I might be able to get around to wrapping up Brodda in regards to setting up his end-game connection with Morgoth.

And again, I apologize for my prolonged absence.

I have no one in particular in mind, Elempi. I would like to find somebody and suggestions are welcome. I'll ask those two you mentioned. I'll check how often they're on, too.

Tell you what - let's move the game forward - the hunt, that is - without worrying about Khamir or Jord. Uldor will start the hunt thinking, "The imbecile can catch up in his own precious time." Nogrod and Lalaith, you do what you're planning.

In the mean time, I'll search for someone to play Jord.

How does that sound?

Captain, I'm sorry you were sick. We'll use Brodda as little as possible but as much as necessary so he's not cut out altogether. I hope to see you join us again soon.
