ADVENTURES IN MIDDLE-EARTH

Starts Thursday 04 Jan 2017

Character Creation
Character creation is on first night. I'll be there by 8.0pm for anyone who wants to get started on creation a little earlier. Available cultures include dwarf, elf, hobbit and mannish cultures. Need one volunteer to create a dwarf of the lonely mountain please; someone who intends to attend regularly and is open to being provided a background story.

The Setting
The core rules uses the Wilderland, from the Misty Mountains to the Iron Hills as its official setting. I'm ignoring this, as it is too limiting for what I hope to achieve. Both the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings were stories involving epic journeys across Middle-earth. So, to emulate the stories of Tolkein, I am providing the opportunity for the company to embark upon an epic journey across Middle-earth too.

If you prefer not to set out on an arduous and heroic journey across a vast wilderness, you can always spend eight weeks getting rat-arsed down at the Green Dragon in Bywater.

THE COMPANY

Gumgred Longtooth.....dwarf......warrior........Stew
Peck Fallowhide...........hobbit.....treasure hunter....Scott
Grey Cloak (aka Anduin of the Greenwood)...elf.......warden....Sant
Black Wolf....................dunedan.......warrior.........Adam
Sammael Grimrook.......hobbit.....wanderer.......Hugh
