A new shadow rises (Middle Earth RPG)

[LilaeaSedai]

This will be an RPG based roughly on Lotr. It will take place after the second fall of Sauron. Everyone believes that since Sauron has been defeated for good that Middle Earth is safe. Little do they know that Sauron had a son, who he trained secretly in Barad Dur. After his father's fall Lumbearan (translation- Shadow king) remained in Mordor and gathered all of the orcs, goblins, Uruk-hai, Cave-trolls, ect. he could find. Soon small bands of evil creatures began attacking places at random. The people of Middle Earth begin to realize that something is wrong. Some decide to wait and see what will happen, but some decide to find out exactly what is going on. King Aragorn Elessar of Gondor uses his Palantir and sees that a new shadow is rising. He sees Lumbearan and realizes that he is Saurons son. Aragorn holds a council with King Eomer of Rohan and they decide to send a large band of warriors, led by themselves and Faramir, into Mordor to defeat Lumebaran. This will start when Aragorn and Eomer set out from Gondor and are heading to Mordor.
Characters needed:
Aragorn
Eomer
Faramir
Lumbearan
Oringinal characters fighting for the good side (male or female)
Original characters fighting for the bad side (male or female)
Anyone else you can think of

Here is my original character:
Name:Avanié Peredhil
Race:half elf
Gender: female
Age:21
Weapons:sword, many knives hidden about her person
Companions:large black stallion named Gaidin
Appearance:short, slender, waist length wavy light brown hair, dark green eyes with flecks of gold and grey in them, pale complexion
Personality:kind, brave, stubborn, adventurous, quick tempered

I will also NPC the characters listed above (Aragorn, eomer, faramir, lumbearan) if no one signs up for them. But if you want them please do sign up because I don't particularly want to play them.

This will be the OOC and sign up thread. I will open an IC thread when enough people sign up.

CAN I BE FRODO?!!!!! Or r we not doing those people?

[*~Luthien~*]

Can I be Lumbearan and Faramir? I love playing two parts, if not I will just be Faramir

[Gondor Knight of Narnia]

OOH!!I'd like to play Eomer and an original character(will post stats later...tis late...) :D

[LilaeaSedai]

will_is_my_man1234- I was planning this after Frodo left for Valinor, so it would be better if you played someone else. You can make an original character that is a hobbit. Maybe someone who is distantly related to Frodo? Or you can be Aragorn. It's your choice.
Tumnus_luver77- Sure you can play them both. I don't do well playing two characters at a time. I get very confuzzled lol
Gondor Knight of Narnia-Yep you can pllay Eomer.

Okay when we get more original characters I'll open the IC thread!

[NarniaNews.Net]

how do I post someone help me

[Melwyn]

I couldn't find an RPG that was just beginning... I have done some RP games from the Lord of the Rings before... they are very fun. If it's ok, I'd like to be Eowyn.

[LilaeaSedai]

NarniaNews.Net- I'm not sure that I know what you mean. I guess just post who you want to be. Faramir, Eomer, and Lumebaran are taken. You can be Aragorn, an original character or another character from lotr. Frodo and Gandalf and everyone else who went to Valinor have already left so you cannot be any of them. If you want to be an original character post a bio (like mine in my first post).
Melwyn- Yes you can play Eowyn

Here is a list of the characters so far:
Aragorn-?
Eomer- Gondor Knight of Narnia
Faramir- Tumnus_luver77
Lumbearan- Tumnus_luver77
Eowyn- Melwyn
Avanié Peredhil- lilaeaSedai

[LilaeaSedai]

yay! U might have to PM me to give me what kind of plot u had in mund for Lumbearan
I'll just go ahead and post some info right here.
Here are some personality traits for him: he is very intelligent, manipulative, skilled battle strategist, greedy, he wants to dominant all of the world that he can, basically he's just really evil
Other: Although he does not have any special weapon thing like the Ring, (although if I or anyone else thinks of something cool like that later we can add it in)he has gathered up the largest forces of evil creatures that Middle Earth has ever seen united under one leader. He has Orcs, Uruk-hai, Trolls, Balrogs, Barrow-wights (those things from the FotR book, they're not in the movie), Fell Beasts (dragon things that the Nazgul rode), and Great Spiders (ex. Shelob) (Those were all of the evil creatures of ME that I could find. If anyone else has other suggestions tell me and I will add them)
There is really no set plot to this RPG. I'm just gonna let things happen as they do with no real plan. Basically Lumbearan will somehow find out about the band of warriors and there will be a battle. Yada, yada, yada we'll just let things progress as they do.
Hope that helped a bit!

[LilaeaSedai]

I'm gonna wait a little while and see if more people sign up, and then I'll open an IC thread.

[Elvess_Leawyn_Greenleaf]

I want to be in it, but I want a female character, but don't want Arwen or Galadriel, and that's all I can think of!!! Other than Eowyn, but she's taken!!!

[LilaeaSedai]

You can make up an original character, if you want :)

[Elvess_Leawyn_Greenleaf]

Thanks... I want to be a character named Leawyn. I have a profile written already for her if you want to read it. Oh, and is anyone being Legolas?

[Saruman]

Is the role of Prince Imrahil of Dol Amroth (brother-in-law of the late Denethor II, Faramir's uncle, Éomer's father-in-law) available? I'll join in. :)

[LilaeaSedai]

Elvess_Leawyn_Greenleaf- you can post your bio on here if you want. That would be good. And no one has asked to be Legolas so if you want him you can have him too.
Curumo- I had forgotten about him. You can play him if you like.
Thanx for joining!
Now we just need someone to be Aragorn and then I'll open an IC thread.

Background:

She was born in Middle Earth. She is the daughter of Maeglin and Alassë who worked in the courts of King Thandruil. She has one sibling, an older brother, Glindrin. Growing up in the court of Thandruil her and her brother’s best friend was the king’s son Legolas.

Then one day Leawyn was out walking in the woods alone. She was about the age of 19 in human years. She was walking along admiring the beauty of the wood when she heard something behind her. She turned and to her horror she saw an orc just as it let an arrow go from its bow. As soon as it hit her in the shoulder, she fell to the ground, clenching tight to her arm. She quickly jumped up from the ground, pulled her throwing knife that she carried with her at all times for self-protection, from her back and quickly killed the orc.

This was the first time she had ever killed anything. She realize what a great warrior she could be so from that day on she always remembered that moment, the pain, the fear, the realness. There she stood after killing the orc, blood streaming from her wounded shoulder. She screamed for help, and that was the last thing she remembered.

She awoke lying on the ground somewhere in the woods. She looked around and did not see the orc she a slaughtered, but in its place was a man, a human. As he walked over he told her that she had been unconscious for a few hours he believed before he found her. He also said that he was taking her back to his home, to a healer there to heal her, but that was all she heard for she blacked out again.

She woke up in the woods once again, alone this time. She felt her shoulder. It was healed. She had no idea what had happened while she was unconscious. But she knew she had been unconscious for a few days. She tried as well as she could to find her way back to her home. But she never could she finally just gave up and headed south to the woods of Fangorn.

There she lived alone in a cave. She taught herself archery and the skill of swordsmanship. She traveled to the Elven city of Rivendell to seek the advice on how to get back to her home from the lord Elrond. But she never reached the city, turning back many times. She went to the city Edoras many a time to get a horse and things she needed, like weapons. But she lived there, many years in Fangorn alone.

CHARACTER PROFILE

Name: Prince Imrahil

Location: Dol Amroth (fiefdom of Gondor, located between the mountains and the sea)

Occupation: Twenty-second Prince of Dol Amroth

Age: 72 (he was 64 in T.A. 3019; his total lifespan was 99 years, T.A. 2055-3054, d. F.A. 34)

Hair: Silver

Eyes: Light gray

Race: Men, Elves

Strengths/Talents: Keen-eyed, military tactitian, strong with sword and bow and a challenge in hand-to-hand combat, noble, gracious and extremely kind-hearted

Background:

Descended from Elves, the people of Dol Amroth were a tall, proud and hearty folk, extremely generous and gracious to neighboring lands and allies. In battle they were fierce, having long defended their coasts against small raids from the Corsairs of Umbar and from small bands of Haradrim from the south. Imrahil fought in the War of the Ring at the side of his brother-in-law, Denethor II, who tragically perished by his own hand. Imrahil took charge of Minas Tirith for the duration of the Battle of the Pelennor Fields. Through those dark times, the Swan-knights of Dol Amroth were a great help indeed, and it was Imrahil who brought his critically wounded nephew, Faramir, back to Minas Tirith for cure before the Enemy could reach him.

For long he has dwelled in peace, doting on his children, and preparing his heir, Elphir, for the throne. He keeps in regular correspondence with Faramir, Steward of Gondor and Prince of Ithilien and his wife, Éowyn, and with his son-in-law, Éomer, King of Rohan, who married his daughter, Lady Lothíriel.

Famous quote(s):

"Surely this is the greatest jest in all the history of Gondor: that we should ride with seven thousands, scarce as many as the vanguard of its army in the days of its power, to assail the mountains and the impenetrable gate of the Black Land! So might a child threaten a mail-clad knight with a bow of string and green willow!" (ROTK, 893)
