Golden Perch Discussion Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Inn context.

Not sure that any is needed beyond the Inn descriptions and list of staff posted at the begining of the thread save to note that it was the afternoon lull and that Iris (replacement cook) and Penny her young cousin had only started work at the inn that day. The cook's disappearance six months ago has for the time being been left as a bit of a mystery (I summarised the situation pre time slip here http://forum.barrowdowns.com/showpos...&postcount=822) .

I don't think there is anything to stop you diving in or that you particularly need to know, there isn't a fight or a party.. So if Foley is agreable I suggest we can just carry on?

We could carry on, or we could skip a few hours, or even a few days. I guess it depends on whether we want the same characters, more or less, or different ones. I'm ok with whatever decision is made.

Folwren · 05-15-2012, 09:16 PM

Yeah. Diving straight in is fine.

It shouldn't mess anything up, as Mith says, and I am totally trusting her judgement. I will have time to actually look at some of this myself tomorrow, in about 12 hours. But by all means, don't hold back - come on in!

Eeek! The responsibility!! But seriously I can't see that a major time change is necessary though always an option. I would prefer that it was minimal since I would like to keep writing Elin but equally Galadriel, I don't see why you shouldn't change if you have had enough of Al.

Afternoon lull on 2 November SR-1356/TA 2956. Got it. Since it's an inn in Stock, East Farthing, someone arriving would be a common happening. I think I'll give it a go after I read through again and see if I can figure out who the proprietor and bar-staff is. I could assume they are NCEs but will give it another read-through.

This gives you the links you need. However as I mentioned, they have been supplemented by Iris and Penny just today. Iris is cooking and Penny serving/ generally helping IIRC. However until we see who else comes back, the landlord Seredic Boffin played by Foley may be your best bet for interaction. Bit depends if your character is a regular or new in town of course...

Galadriel55 · 05-16-2012, 05:27 AM

IIRC Al isn't doing much at the moment, so he's open for interaction, but I've got to check. (And I haven't got enough of him yet!)

I'll try to read up on everything later today.
