Say What? Pele had an eye?

@Lailorn it's called a breakdown :P
It sure was short-lived! Pele, maybe you can advise me on my next breakdown?
Hah, @Lailorn, It was just a sudden crazy idea (out of boredom?), though I never intended to keep the icon longer than necessary - only to see the reactions of people.
@Karis Ziranphel Here's proof, courtesy of @Tarawen because I did not think of doing this myself.

It was terrible and upsetting and seeing that tree next to her name once again brings a wonderful calm.

Happy to have helped commit this to our collective NuPlaza memory! It was a joyful 30 minutes or so

I loved every single second of it! Everyone should have an eye for at least 30 minutes and go streaking with it

Can @Tarawen get tribute for capturing this event?
bahaha I am not eligible for tribute but I am very glad you appreciate it, @Lailorn

@Arnyn Hey! So sorry for the delay, my writing muse took a dive these past few weeks but I finally wrote that chapter if you're still interested to jump in? I have it so that your character would already be boarded and lodged when they arrive to grab Abrazimir, whom you can meet aboard the ship and he can inform you about the mission. If you are still interested that is. And of course, open for anyone else who wants to do a little sabotage.
Let me know if it works for you.

Honeycake too, Tara? ;)
@Lantaelen woohoo! Love the setting, yes, that will work great. At this point Abrazimir and Arnyn wouldn't know each other yet I think? Unless we assume they somehow did?

EDORAS IS BURNING!
The capital city of the Riddermark has recently been unfortunate enough to suffer mishap and arson. A number of conspiracies and gatherings have inconveniently come to fruition in a single night. While some have taken to the bed and others engage in late night revelries, the city of Edoras is roused as no less than three separate locations in Edoras are suddenly consumed by flame.
Will you join the rescue efforts as citizens and visitors alike unite to save the city from the inferno?

Bloody Barges
The Gulf of Umbar, that finger of the Bay of Belfalas nearly surrounded by the land of the Haven, is a busy body of water at the best of times. At the worst, it becomes a veritable chaos of ships, boats, barges, and rafts, all trying to occupy the same space and move about without crashing into one another. Such is the case today, only this time, everyone has gotten fed up with the situation. And, as every craft in Umbar runs heavily armed, there can be only one solution: sink each other until the water is clear!
If you like battleship, this game is for you! All are welcome, though non-corsairs better have a good reason for being there...

Angmar has returned!
Angmar, Iron Home, the realm of the Witch-King, established in year 1300 of the Third Age in the far north of the Misty Mountains and the wastes of the plain beyond. Throughout its history Angmar has threatened the northern lands of men and elves, gathering orcs and fallen-men, evil spirits and dark creatures of all stripes to its bosom.
"Not all his servants and chattels are wraiths ! There are orcs and trolls, there are wargs and werewolves ; and there have been and still are many Men, warriors, and kings, that walk alive under the Sun, and yet are under his sway. And their number is growing daily."
~The Fellowship of the Ring, Many Meetings
The year is TA 3014 and the Queen of Iron rules from Carn Dûm in the Witch-King's stead. This thread describes and covers locations such as Carn Dûm, one of its taverns (The Dagger), the Temple of Angmar, the Mountains of Angmar, the Forodwaith, and the Icebay of Forochel. Any other location you can imagine in the general geography of the thread is also up for grabs. Though the established premise exists in TA 3014, you may free RP in any year! All races welcome; elves/rangers/etc adventuring or investigating in the far north are free to play here, as well as the denizens of Angmar. This is currently a catchall thread for all Angmar RP, but if certain locations or activities prove especially popular, they may be split off into their own threads in the future!

This week has been an incredibly busy one for me, so I haven't had time for more than a few quick glances at posts. Hope you are all well!

This may be an odd question, and this might not be the best place for it, but heck it came to mind and I've been mulling on it for a while... Not sure if everyone managed to follow what's going on in Rohan with their firefighting efforts to save Edoras from burning, but I was wondering would Gondor as a kingdom hava an official response/aid program/something or other sincw Rohan is our closest ally? I know individual PC are helping, but would we have a Kingdom wide response? Coordinated with Rohan of course.
Sorry if this makes 0 sense/you haven't really thought about it... It came to mind after reading some history books in preparation for a PhD thesis I was planning to do... Please ignore if I sound a bit erm eccentric

For fires? No you wouldn't have Rohan help out with that, as the place would have burned down by the time they arrive :P Anything else, it might be worth asking in lore as there might be a mention of it in the books.
It’s not entirely eccentric @Nessa Saelind. I kind of half-joked about it in the Marketplace ooc too.
And because I lurk, I kind of spied a letter in the Rohirric mail thread, that a messenger was intending to come and ask Gondor’s king for aid ? The Rohirric-Gondorian alliance may have been designed around military support, but I figure, if they’re not to proud to ask, then it can’t hurt to answer. Though if we need to vote or debate about it, the answer could take a while.

All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost

Dont see the need to debate it, if you want to RP helping out in Rohan, go for it <3 There is precendence so not like it's a big deal if you do and would make sense that they would remain allies and help each other out in times of need, as so many died during the war. Just keep in mind Rohan is about year 25 and MT is about 5 :P
Note to self; self ? You really are no good at joking. Stop trying, self. Lurking is far safer. Stick with that.

I got the joke, but then thought Gondorians DO like to debate, so thought I would say it anyways :P
Note to self: stop typing posts from your mobile phone, you already make little sense as is.
Disregarding our desires for eternal debates like we're the Roman Senate I was just curious if we would do this as an organised Kingdom-wide effort, or just individual PC RP-ing how private Gondorian citizens are organising to aid Gondor. Am I making any sense?

I don't really care much about years and just jump in and do stuff. Pele's there anyway, recovering from stabbing, but I figure it would be great if there was some sort of organised effort.
Given how many are active atm, I say do it individually, but say it is kingdom wide so all can jump in if they want to.
I was practising some Ercassie-esque lurking and spotted the discussion regarding the Rohirric fires and potential Gondorian aid; any and all people of Gondor are of course welcome to assist in the relief and rebuilding efforts, much of which could easily be covered in the recently opened Montage thread with minimal RP commitment.
I appreciate that you may be waiting for an IC invitation from @Calimir's dispatch rider PC but I thought I would provide another OOC one also.
Additionally, if anyone should be looking to employ an arson specialist and inferno-co-ordinator to bring perilous fires and opportunities for heroism to *your* kingdom then look no further! (wiggles eyebrows suggestively)
ALLACAN EDIT to add in official thread advertisement:-
The Riddermark seeks assistance from all its allies as it recovers and rebuilds after the terrible fires that beset its capital of Edoras
*the sound of a record scratching and the sinister dramatic tones are replaced with happy pleasant music* Alternatively...
Need to add a new skill to your character's repertoire but don't have the time to commit to lengthy RP?
Preparing for a championship fight and need to get in shape quickly?
Planning for total world domination but want to fast-forward the awkwardness of hiring an army of henchman?
All this and more can now be achieved in Rohan's first ever Montage thread

@Allacan ob Burzum Thanks for helping deliver the message. Now I can go off and collect the lemons @Gwai is looking for. I'm looking forward to seeing what goes on in the Montage thread.

Hey everyone! So the member of the month voting is nearly up and there haven’t been many votes. I would like to implore you all to take a quick 5 minutes to do so. Even if you are not active, I still implore you to take the time and vote. You don’t need to have been super active the last month to stop by and tell the admins who you think is the coolest or the best or your favorite writer. Why am I so invested you ask ( okay you didn’t but I’m gonna say it anyway). I came up with the idea to let us, the non admin members of the Plaza pick someone special. I really want to see that idea succeed because it can help draw us together more as a group and can say to someone that we as a whole enjoy their work and their company. We’ve got a few more days, and you all have 5 minutes to push the envelope button on the bottom of the page.
I’m also just posting this in the OOC threads because it’s not an announcement so much as it’s a plea to engage with.

Fine, fine, Frost, done...
@Nessa Saelind I have posted - just ping me here (or wherever you want me) when you're done - no vast hurry, I am back at work now, so my time is limited.
The Wood-elves lingered in the twilight of our Sun and Moon, but loved best the stars.
@Lirimaer saw your post, but I'm still trying to figure out how to seamlessly transition from the Marketplace to the Houses of Healing without it looking like a hot mess I'll most likely transfer the whole thing to the Houses of Healing and tag you in my post there :-)
No worries, I'm not in a hurry - my work has also been hectic so I do most of my writings on the weekend anyway. :-)

I would presume they have met once or twice. Abrazi's been in the army for a handful of years so it's not unlikely they would have crossed paths before. I'm all for any previous history they might have add, on patrols or other garrison duties and the like.

@Lirimaer I posted my response in 2 parts because it made more sense to me The 1st part is in the Marketplace, and the 2nd one is at the reception of the Houses of Healing. I hope it's ok, and please don't feel obliged or pressured to respond quickly. Take your time, I'm in no rush. Turtles all the way down in here

I've been a bit absent from here in the past few days because of work stuff and I've been having migraines again (stress at work probably triggered that again), so I'm trying to minimise screen time off work. I know I owe a post to Windy and Frost at the Houses of Healing, and I hope I can finish that on Sunday *fingers crossed*. If I forgot someone or something let me know so I can put it on the to-do list :D

Come one, come all, to the Hall of Judgement in Carn Dûm where murder has taken place, and more is to come if you don't help find the killer. This game + light RP is based on the party game "mafia" (also known as werewolf, assassin, or witch hunt), adjusted for the forum format. All are welcome, though non-minions better watch their step!

Hey Gondor friends! (Ooo looking good @Arnyn!)
From my quiet lurking it seems that you are all set in early FA and the Rangers are mostly disbanded, yes? Any other important things I need to know to RP in your fine city?

Very early FA about 5 years ish into it, give or take whatever you need to make it fit :P Gondor still has Rangers, but they are more like out dealing with skirmishes and stuff like that. Tower Guards deal with crime in the city :)
Thanks Windy! I can work with that. I know diddly-squat about Gondor so anything helps right now.
Feel free to ask and feel free to jump in where you want! <3
Especially in the Houses of Healing cause Windy needs more patients to practice on Well and we'd love to see fresh new healer apprentices there too ^_^
