Lord of the Rings Fanatics Plaza

*freezes in @Thalionwen's beaming gaze* just, uh... hanging up a poster BYE NOW.

Westu Minions, hal.

*takes advantage of @Aodh Hammerhelm's appearance and announcement to slip out of @Moriel's clutches and safely back to Rohan*

*Shouts after @Taethowen* "OH WE'LL GET YOU YET. JUST YOU WAIT! EVERYONE SUCCUMBS TO THE DARKNESS AND THE FLAME IN THE END!"

@Dimcairien Luiniel Let's say...Zaram makes it through the Imladris maze. And let's say... Zaram happens to pilfer the treasure of one Aerlinn Mordagnir? Might Aerlinn turn up in the Black Market demanding its return (and compensation for related travel and suffering in the form of chocolate)? Details of disguise forthcoming, if agreeable. :smiley8:

@Aerlinn I'm agreeable with that. What sorts of treasures does this Aerlinn Mordagnir possess? And chocolate could be a considered form of payment. It is a Black Land treat after all.

Hello, hello! I used to participate in the rebel-RPG we had in the old Mordor forum as the chief rebel; but my main Mordor character was a Black Númenórean trained by @Sil and later commanded a bit by @Moriel... I'm thinking of joining the Black Host again ;)

Do it! We need more trainees than just me running around and destroying things

Go for it :) You are welcome to use you old rank or make a new npc or start over with the one you used before.

@Moriel Suppose I bring an assassin from Angmar (one of the minions of Jadis) to train in Mordor. Where would you propose to begin? Also, I'm looking for some Black Host soldier to train him, though I can't guarantee he'll still be breathing by the end of it. :smiley10:

Just jump into the Black Host thread and get started :D If you actually want to be trained by someone and not do it yourself, you can ask for someone here and if no one speaks up, I will pop in and do it :)

@Aerlinn Well, Zarâm successfully made it through the Imladris maze. Let me know if anything turns up missing from your treasure trove.

Thanks, @Winddancer and @Moriel!

@Allafyrefleorhtlig, what if I DON’T think I’m the best fighter in the land, but also think it’s a great way to die horribly?

Hello all. I used to go by Bashrasha here years ago. I'll be posting in the Black Host thread with a conscript character soonish. I used to be in the Morannon Garrison before I joined my RL brother in Minas Morgul.
Do any of you remember the Mordor breeding grounds? I seem to remember I had a job there training wargs or something.
It looks like a bunch of you have put some extremely hard work into this place. It looks great!

Best,
Lokktar

*slides on in* Well hello @Lokktar Ogar, and welcome back to Mordor. Do not let my equine avatar fool you--I too shall be joining the ranks of the minions shortly (it is quite literally a long story at this point) and we do indeed have a shop in the Black Market that might be right up your alley. Let me know if you're interested, but no pressure

Hi @Moriel, Lokktar is fine. Bash was great but new beginnings are cool too. I'd love a discord link! Do you need my email? I'm a bit new to it. Thanks!

Hey @Thalionwen, no worries I hopped around a bit as well : ). Pakon Stazim sounds awesome! I'd love to be proprietor.

@Lokktar Ogar Lokktar it is then :smiley8: Here's an invite link for you! It expires after one use or one day, whichever comes first.

It's all yours @Lokktar Ogar

Looking good @Thalionwen! The ring suits you better than the horsey ever did. Also welcome back @Lokktar Ogar!

Welcome back in here as well! Will your brother be joining us as well?? *hint hint wink wink*

@Glitterati_Goblin Then we definitely want you, so that we might revel in the glory of your bloody demise.

Also very excited that you bear a Rohirric icon (for now). And the contingent of not-so-secret, undercover in every way but actually being subtle Minions pretending to be Rohir grows.

@Allafyrefleorhtlig I made them for me in the discord. @Taethowen made a very compelling argument.

Minions think they are the only ones good at recruitment. Taeth is better. :twisted:

Nooooo recruiting for Rohan here! Unless you want to be "escorted" to the Pits! I could do with some victims..

I'm not recruiting NOW. I already completed that assignment. :roll:

Oh honey! You have no idea how good we are at recruiting!

Frost is gonna have to keep trying harder then. :smiley10:

He will..

I am as persistent and insidious as the frost, I will find the tiniest cracks and nestle in, expanding and breaking apart your will until the horse icon you hide behind is shattered and broken, revealing the eye beneath.

The eye which is that of a flaming horse. Not a *burning to death* horse mind you, but a horse made of fire. There will *always* be a horse.

We breed horses in Mordor.. hellish ones..

See why didn't you guys START there?!

Is this the type of horse you want @Taethowen?

I need my yesblob. Why is there no yesblob. But yes, I would be okay with that type of horse.

If there is ever a need for SCRs (or even if there isn't) can an admin have Taeth wear said icon I posted? If that's the only way she'll join us …

Hmmm, it’d have to have red eyes AND a flaming mane to tempt me. Then it would be VERY hard to resist.

Also good job @Taethowen!

We just wanted to see how far my charm could go to bring you in, as it turns out, you were already half way there. You cannot continue to deny that nature within that yearns to breath the savage air. :mrgreen:

@Aerlinn so in regards to Zarâm pilfering things after her successful attempt at the Imladris Maze, what does the Mordagnir crest look like?

So I'm thinking it's about time to resurrect/rework some of the characters I was developing at the end of my time on OldPlaza, and one of them is warg/werewolf (the distinction is fuzzy, at best). Taking a peek through the Army thread header and seeing there's accounting for the less humanoid options in there, in certain roles. But the cavalry's awfully constrained about how it's the riders. Can we work with that? How do we work with that? Are we still in the stages where we're largely pantsing it and I can ignore anything I want?

Sure, go ahead and ignore it lol, but you best make damn sure to let others know if they can ride you or not!

So I've been told this is where the cool kids come to hang out :)
