THE LONELY STAR (Contd. from BD birthday party) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

OOC - Thought I'd pull up the new thread. Decided to use the more general name of the ship rather than the hobrim, in case we run two adventures on this thread as we did last time.

So far we've got:

our ship: "The Lonely Star"

our banner: that of Earendil which Mith mentioned?? (Sounds good to me)

our hobrim: "Kali"

I still think it would be interesting to keep the Westron "Tarkil" as Tali's last name, since this does mean "descendent of Numenor" (see Appendix F), that is if we end up time travelling there. Of course, we wouldn't even learn about his last name until we're trying to figure out the documents, oral history, etc which will send us in that direction. It could be a "clue" as to Kali's familial past.

Pio -- Are you thinking of the Westron stem "trah" which has to do with creeping through a hole? I don't think either tar or kil has that meaning although I could have overlooked something.

Will post later this evening.
