As we briefly talked about this with Oddwen during Finlandmoot, my not-so-active-lately interest in the game was rekindled. I have a character on Silverlode (Curufinwen) and I am all the time thinking about getting another one (but I never really got to make them); I also have older characters on Meneldor, whom I don't play much anymore, though. I would be all for starting a guild, and I think money for a house will be the smallest problem, with several characters we can organise some random grinding (well, or not grinding) operations... so in any case, I can "supply" my character(s) for that.

I have two characters on Gladden (Crabannan and Gwathagor -- surprise, surprise!), but I may abandon them and start playing on Silverlode in order to hang out with you guys. One of them's a level 21, so that's a lot of playing time that would be unfortunate to leave behind, but whatever. I just which they'd let you pay for character transfer with Turbine points.

Ok, I now have a dwarf Guardian (Frarr) and a hobbit hunter (Browningar) in Silverlode. Hopefully I'll see some of you there soon.

As I have a couple of exams coming up this week, I think for at least a few days now I won't be there to be encountered, but once I happen to log in, I'll make sure to look out for your characters...

Fortunately, fellowshipping can get you through the lower levels a bit quicker. My lowest character is Derndwimmer, human Captain and ladykiller, at level eleven I believe. My only day available this week is Thursday, so if you see any of me online /t me up yo.

Since returning to the Barrow-Downs in the late summer, I made a character on Vilya to play with with some IRL friends, but if people are still active, I think I'll possibly make a new one on Silverlode.

Coolness, Eonwe.

So, regarding the kinship, we can choose a "racial charter" which has nothing to do with anything except leader/officer titles. There's more info on kinship specifics here.

And of course the all-important name.

Knights in Wight Satin?

What a Downer?

Paper Teleporno?

Will give this some thought and come up with something really awesome.

By dint of unrelenting stalking I tracked down Gwathagor last night.

Scheduled is too strong a word, but we agreed if we both happen to be around at the same...undefinied time on Saturday I would log in my level 14 hunter and we would go forth and quest.

Anybody else who wants to join us is more than welcome. My 14 hunter is named Nokki.

I don't know about Saturday, I will probably be doing other stuff on that day, but if I happened to appear around...

Yesterday we've had a brief encounter and eventual quest-together with Eönwë, it could be summed up as something like "two low-level Dwarves show off with their stunt moves, music skills and sparkling light and then walk from Thorin's Gate to Gondamon with a bit of detour to a goblin fortress". I think it was really enjoyable, and I think we both agreed that more gatherings of 'Downers would be nice. And also that we definitely should go on here with the proposed idea of forming a kinship.

Agreed.

Had we settled on a name yet?
