I indeed did not get the mention the first time around. Will get to writing soonish

Ohhh, post is up, alrighty! I will get a CS posted asap.

@Jbcool Uh, I sent you my character prose section via PMs a couple of days ago. Have you received that, or are you just reading it over at the moment?

Interesting characters so far. I must say I am looking forward to the actual play.

As am I, we've just got two more people to go, one's already quit, and then we can get going. :)

I had an idea for a character for this RP but I'm not sure if its good for the standard so I want to pitch this idea first for your approval before I make a sheet. The character would be human but born with the blood to the dragons, the race of creatures created by morgoth. As such, he is in a constant struggle between his morale standing fostered by the kingdom he was raised by, and the sinful nature of the beasts that share his blood and the connection with the dark forces. However this has given an affinity with fire, as he is seemingly unable to burn and can breathe flames from his mouth. While he cannot use the tempting control of a dragon's tongue, he can see through its deception and can speak with a dragon hypothetically without being vulnerable to this affect. His appearance is that of a typical human, with the glowing eyes, horns, and tail of a dragon.@Jbcool

@dragonmancer Sorry, but I'm afraid it'd have to be a no on that one, dragonmancer. Thanks for showing interest though.

@JbcoolI think I will make a different, more traditional Dwarf character and get back to you very soon, my friend.

No problemo, I look forward to it.

@Andromedai@vietmyke

Check mic - one, two, three.

super interested! subscribing

Think I may have to bug out of this one, so other things came up

@vietmyke Fair enough...number two to leave.

@Winston Smith Subscribing? Well, you can write up a character profile and PM it to me, that's a good start. :)

I think he's joking, to be honest.

I hope so...if that is the case, then fine.

Hmmm... I love the idea of this. Would it be possible to play as a human of Black Numenórean background? Not one that is inherently evil, but definitely one that is in some way afflicted by the darkness of Melkor.

@Grijs As much I'm tempted by the idea, gonna have to say no to this one; I can explain why, if you'd like, or you can just accept my decision. Tis up to you.

@Jbcool Eh, I understand. It would likely be out of place for would-be Sauron followers to align themselves in a fellowship as this. But out of curiosity; would it differ if it is a disillusioned Black Númenórean? In contrast to Orcs, all men are (kind off) redeemable. Their source of evil is more their lack of strength. (Isildur and Boromir.)

Edit: You know the 2011 'War in the North' game? I liked it. This RP concept reminds me a bit of it. Like this RP the story's generally loyal to the lore and tropes.

But out of curiosity; would it differ if it is a disillusioned Black Númenórean? In contrast to Orcs, all men are (kind off) redeemable.

I'm afraid to say that it would make no difference; the very reason they are called Black Númenóreans is that they were in direct opposition to 'the Faithful' for over a thousand years, their attitude and beliefs matching so closely to those of Morgoth and Sauron (domination over lesser men) that we even get the Mouth of Sauron in an age where their people are pretty much drawing their last breath.

There's also a huge debate as to whether Orcs are also redeemable, which I will not get into here, but of all the men I would have to say that the Black Númenóreans would be perhaps the least redeemable that there are - even the Haradrim and Easterlings (some of them) must have fought simply out of fear of the repurcussions if they did not, or out of a misguided loyalty, or even did not...we don't know everything that happened in the South or East, after all.

In contrast the Númenóreans or 'the Kings Men' at least, fell so deeply to the darkness that redemption for them would likely come only in their deaths. If even then.

So, once more I must say no.

Feel more than free to come up with a different concept though, I'm all ears eyes.

@Sigurd@BCTheEntity@DrunkasaurusRex@Vor

I hope all of you are still interested, and that the lack of moving forward has not turned you away; at least two folks have dropped out now, and a couple of others (@POOHEAD189, @Winston Smith, @Andromedai, etc) still need to get their profiles to me.

If anyone else is wanting to join, then please do say so, write a sheet and get it to me.

You're more than welcome.
