What about the wolves? Do I really have to kill them by myself?

Folwren · 03-18-2008, 10:26 AM

lol! I'm hoping the wolves will simply scamper off and not trouble Stock ever again...but that's the Hobbit side of me talking. If you want to kill the wolves, you're going to have find others to help you, becasue I don't have any characters who can/will lend a hand. The new men who just walked in will be able to help, me thinks.

And Groin, that's fine. It's been a lot of fun having you here. You're not leaving the Downs Roleplaying section altogether, though, are you? We need players who are good and who stick around!!!!!

Thanks Folwren, I've had a lot of fun in this thread and has given me a general knowledge of how to write with these RPG's.

No I'll be around the RPG's for quite some time. I'm not sure that I'm good, but I'll certainly stick around.

Gwathagor, maybe we could do a little Wolf killing when I'm leaving the Inn.

Folwren, you are right about the availability at least of Jims. Gwathagor and Eonwe, I will be heading out to the stables soon and please feel free to join in what I (hopefully) get started there re wolf hunting.

Folwren, what are the limits of action occuring outside the immediate environs of the inn? Would any wolf hunting or 'slaying'

have to take place close to the inn? I know in general this thread is for non-violent activities centering on the GP, correct?

BTW, who started the wolf thing anyway and is he/she still around? Does anyone know why the wolves are around???

Gwathagor · 03-26-2008, 08:53 PM

It was Forest Elf that started the wolf thing. Her character was named Gable, and she hasn't been around for months.

Folwren · 03-27-2008, 07:53 AM

I think the wolves were done simply so that something could happen. I encourage people now to deal with the wolves in a group, preferably with each character having a player behind it. I like how you three seem to be planning to do that.

The purpose of this RPG is to give people an opportunity to learn how to interact and play along with other people's characters.

As for slaying the wolves...it can be done away from the inn. If it is not in the immediate surroundings of the Perch, then, in the Title line of your post, write "Away - Jims - Killing Wolves Somewhere in Stock" maybe. Something like that, I guess. Pio has it outlined here. Don't make it too terribly gory - I haven't read anything unacceptable here so far, I don't think.

But you are correct - this is (hopefully) for more non-violent stuff happening in or near the Perch. Of course, conflict is alwasy very good, so I expect and can actually hope for some little trouble among the characters, if only to make things interesting.

Have fun, gents. I'll try to keep up on the posts in the game thread.

Well there you go and feel free to jump in anytime, anyone.

I did not take Songo along to the stable as I had thought to originally Eonwe but I left an opening there for him to chime in however you like to Jims' questions/discovery.

Eönwë · 03-31-2008, 02:50 PM

Well, I'm back

Well thats a job for my second character (who's about to come soon) and no mistake. I'll be glad to join you in some wolf-slaying.
