Nice post Himaran. One thing is driving me crazy though: when you say his "knew" wife don't you mean "new"? I'm usually not grammar sensitive, but it just stood out.

One other thing: Is Meneltarmacil going to join up with us in a post or are we merely going to carry his character along? I said in my post he would meet us outside the city. If the latter is the case, I will mention in my next post that he has joined with the group.

Also, how long is the journey to Armenelos going to take ?

Regin: we're a few hours into the journey, and I remember someone saying that on kariborim, it's about a ten hour trip. I'd say we've got maybe six hours left?

Wow,

That question from Regin lingered for days and then finally i get around to answering only to find that Fea beat me by two minutes! What timing...

I would say, and of course this is only one man's humble opinion, that probably you could skip over the rest of the journey and have the next set of posts upon the arrival to Armenelos...of course this is just a suggestion, perhaps you have something good in store for the trip?

I look forward to seeing what's next...

I have just pmed a few of the rescuers to let them know how Marsillion and Kathaani plan to get out of their scrape (but still leave lmp in a bit of suspense). When the details get worked out I'll fill in my post (now just a very rough sketch indeed) and see where things go.

The hour of decision. Alas, the time has come where we really need to decide if we're going to use Alaklondewen's abandoned character, Monoizindu. I think he's a good link and a good way to work ourselves into the prison area. I also think there's a good history between him and Abarpanaru which might be interesting to play out, however, he might be an extra burden as one more writerless character.

Yea or Nay?

As much as I liked the character, I've got to vote ++Nay. (Ah! WW5 has followed me around!)

I think we've got sufficient plot twists being played out right now:

Abarpa with Tar-Miriel
Inzi with Abarza
Kath, Tiru, Marsillion with King's Men
Rescuers trapped outside
Abarpa about to die (that must have been one drawn out torturing of that poor lad)
Elendil in a hurry

Trying to tie up all the loose ends we've created should be quite enough, unless I'm out-voted.

I will be away starting Sunday and will not return until the 15th, so I'd like to post sometime in the next couple of days. However, I cannot really see myself posting something that agrees with the storyline until we figure out some feasable way of secretly entering the city. I proposed a "dress up as the bad guys" idea a while back, and there were the thoughts on the sewers, but it doesn't seem like we've agreed on anything yet. I still think the "dress up as the bad guys" idea might work, though it's admittedly a little overused in popular movies (ex: Star Wars)

Menel's idea has merit.

Another thought too: Numenor isn't filled up with only rich Numenoreans. The only way any society can exist is for there to be an underclass that does all the dirty work. Just imagine how many disaffected poor folk there must be on the outskirts of the great city, happy to help people who are (1) against the powers that be (2) willing to do all they can for the disaffected. It also adds a good moral aspect to the group's story possibilities.

Yes, this idea has been just as overused as all the rest, but it just seems like it probably has more potential for interesting story.

I put up my new post.

With regards to the disaffected poor. In my proposal I suggest that we ambush a small group of guards and take their clothing. Perhaps while we do this, one of us could get in trouble and be rescued by one of the poor citizens who hates the king? It might change Azarmanô's opinion about being stranded without anyone around them to help.

I suggest that we sneak into the city through Noirian, the Valley of Tombs. It seems like a good, secluded place. I mean who takes a path that runs through tombs?

Tell me if this is okay.

Ah! Double Post!

I'm working on my post, but have two questions:

1. Inzi's new plan is good, but doesn't it scrap the old one about her being Abarzadan's wife?

2. Has Thoronmir rejoined the group yet?

Fea- Why did you end your post with Abarzadan's name?

I am sort of confused as to why we wrote Meneltarmacil's character back into the story if he isn't going to post. As of now he is supposedly with us, but he hasn't done anything. I don't know exactly what to do with Thoronmir. I guess he'll just tag along.

I like the idea of having Inzi being "captured" as it gives us an additional avenue into the dungeon to rescue her husband.

I usually cut and paste names so I don't have to memorize ALT codes. I bet that's what I did, and then I forgot to delete the "original" at the bottom. I'll go fix it.

Abarzadan disagrees but will respect the decision of the group. They are at the tombs.

Pio/Menel - I think that Menel's post would fit in with the game better if it were placed above mine. ???

With my last post I've set upTârik taking initiative to find people to help Mabalar escape - with Míriel's artefact - and with Mabalar's Kiribor (which one I can't remember!).

Maybe the Guard that have captured Marsillion, Kathaani, and Tumi (? - I can't keep track of all the names) can be tricked into handing the captives over to Târik and/or his cronies?

Monôizindu is the shopkeeper that aladlondewen would have been playing if she hadn't gotten so busy. In her absence, I'm preparing to write something that ties together Mabalar, Târik, and Monôizindu. The idea is that Mabalar finally remembers that he has a friend right in the capital, and he sends Târik after him. Once Monôizindu finds out what's up, the entire network of secret Faithful in the capital gets into action, and it's only a matter of circumstance before the rescuers are discovered/run into and get connected up with Monôizindu and thus Târik and finally Mabalar. And rescuing the Karibor (I again forget which one) that Mabalar rides, becomes a soluble (solvable, sorry)problem. Thoughts?

I've gotten us into the city. I'll be gone starting Friday but I'll be back on Monday so I don't think that should affect the RPG much.

Time for a little more thinking...

What do we do now? These are a few options I have considered:

1. Take Inzi to the prison and use it as an opportunity to get the others out.

2. Drop the uniforms, find a place to stay, and lie low while gathering intelligence and figuring out how to get everyone free.

3. Turn themselves in. (Just kidding.)


We have, however, finally reached the point of the game where Abarzadan has a legitimate reason for deserting. He is inside Armenelos, and obviously wants to see it as his father had asked him to do. At some point in the rest of the story, I do want him to explore the "wonderous" city and find what he may... Then we shall see how this little sub-plot will end.

Option 4: We're in. We now wait for Soph and TB12, because I believe they have something in mind.

LMP, careful you don't get yourself rescued, it would ruin all the fun of me being "captured".

Well, Feanor, somehow we need to make use of Moizandu and Târik. Get them linked up with your group or the other group. Maybe Azarmano might stumble across the shopkeeper? All kinds of options.

I agree LMP. We can't toss off such great characters.

Would Inzi recognize Moizandu? If so, perhaps when she is being "taken" to the temple, she would spot him and relay his identity to Azarmano and Co.? Something could happen and so when Tarik reaches him, Moizandu already has word of rescuers in the city?

Or even more fun would be if Moizandu recognizes Inzillomi but not she him, and he relays to Tarik that Abarpanaru/Mabalar's lady has been taken by the King's Men.

Oh what heartache would ensue...

I took the liberty of having Moizandu recognize Inzillomi while she has her eyes towards the ground, avoiding the taunts of the crowd. I hope that the recognition was done in a satisfactory way for everyone. If there are any problems, please let me know so I can edit. Man, it's hard to be a prisoner.

I am not sure about the tombs. I guess since we have disguises we are scrapping it.

Inzillomi just isn't very happy right now.

So, in order to meet back up with the captive Marsillion, Tiru, and Kathaani...

Either we find them in the dungeons?

Or we run into them while escaping, have a fantastically fun battle sequence, and run for it to Romenna (ride for it, actually)?

Or [fill in the blank]?

I know that TB12 and Soph had mentioned a crazy bit of duex ex machina just inside the gates involving a huge storm and lots of confusion and some villagers that hate Sauron and the king, but now that we've gotten our group to the temple, either that will have to be reconfigured or scrapped.

Either way, LMP gets to have fun writing whatshisyap's post for meeting up with the guy whose name I can't spell (you can tell how much of a perfectionist I am when I'm in a hurry ) and learning that Inzi's headed to prison. Then of course we get to see some heartache.

But we definately need to figure out a plan for getting our two rescuer groups back together.

I think I just added him without realizing it was him. Check out my last post. But if that's who that is, then we need to somehow get him off the island too before it sinks beneath the waves.....

That is kind of a problem. The only option I can really see is stowing away on one of the Faithful's ships, unless a Fell Beast was waiting to fly him off the island.

*edit*

Fell Beasts are not aircraft, though, and can presumably only fly so far without having to land and rest, so I think it's more feasable for him to stow away.

*more editing*

Actually, I noticed that I mentioned him in my bio earlier:
Quote:
He (Thoronmir/Sakaladûn) ran into the strongest opposition from Herugor, the second most powerful man in Numenor and the one he suspected had been learning all kinds of evil things from Sauron. After Sakaladûn flat out refused to have anything to do with an assault on Valinor, first proposed in 3299 and actually started eleven years later, Herugor, probably following instructions from Sauron, made up a number of false accusations about Sakaladûn forming a conspiracy and taking the throne for himself. Herugor then presented these charges before the king, who fired Sakaladûn from his post and had him arrested.
Herugor was the name lmp and Elora came up with for the Mouth in a previous RPG, though as mentioned earlier on this thread the name will probably have to be changed to something less obviously evil.

Mock!?

I was just having fun.

Herugor is some kind of Elvish name (I made it up years ago but can't tell you whether it's Sindarin, Quenyan, or some kind of mix between the two), so it can serve as the nickname the Faithful have for this particular scoundrel. We will need to come up with a Valinorian, and/or perhaps Umbarian name for him too.
