Erestor was bored one day and decided he wanted to go climbing up Taniquetil's slopes. Of course Artanis and Laure just had to tag along. Marching through the snow is tiring however so Erestor thought of an innovative way to get back down. Characters Needed: Elves Glor Artanis Me of course, The Valar Actually any would do, thought Yavanna and Aule are the ones Erestor seemed to run into most of the time. Any other folks that want to sign up we could probably use a Maiar or two. -------------------- Erestor, Chief Counsellor of Imladris, Collector of weird and arcane objects. Can I offer you an Elven Gumdrop? May the Valar favor your snowboard. Erestor's bio

I have a feeling I might be getting in trouble. Maybe Emmyarwen would like to create a valar character for this one! -------------------- Glorfindel was tall and straight; his hair was of shining gold, his face fair and young and fearless and full of joy; his eyes were bright and keen, and his voice like music; on his brow sat wisdom, and in his hand was strength.

In Aman during the age of the trees, the first part of the story of course will be in Tirion, then the short trek up the mountain. Trouble naw, just think of it we'll be the first Elves to snowboard down Taniquetil. Maybe we'll start a new fad, sort of like the one with dying Míriel Serindë's hair blue. This was of course your suggestion. See what happens when you suggest things to me. Eldirn well Olorin always seems to be around when Erestor decides to get into trouble. Maybe Emmy can play Yavanna Kelementari. Well I guess its back to the garden for me. -------------------- Erestor, Chief Counsellor of Imladris, Collector of weird and arcane objects.

Kinda like a scene on a stage, in one room, one place on the mountain after or before an event. Aman is kind of a big stage! Otherwise this roleplay will be a long roleplay and should be started in the regular long roleplay forum. So to start out a scene roleplay you need to set the stage. Tell what happened prior to the scene and also you might want to line out a rough idea of what you want to have happen. Will it be humorous? dramatic? way out from canon? etc. -------------------- Glorfindel was tall and straight; his hair was of shining gold, his face fair and young and fearless and full of joy; his eyes were bright and keen, and his voice like music; on his brow sat wisdom, and in his hand was strength.

Well all we need is a couple of sheilds. lots of snow, a steep slope and gravity. -------------------- Erestor, Chief Counsellor of Imladris, Collector of weird and arcane objects.

Doing scene roleplay requires some beating the bushes to find roleplayers. Use PM to get promises from others to join in as specific characters.

Balrog Slayer Group: Tauristo Posts: 2,225 Member No.: 1 Joined: 20-October 04	Ah yes! Of course my sister Olóte would be present and mastermind of the whole thing! So we have: Erestor Olórin Olóte and maybe me... (gah, another roleplay to keep up with!) We would also need several NPCs as well. Anyone want to be a Vala? -------------------- Glorfindel was tall and straight; his hair was of shining gold, his face fair and young and fearless and full of joy; his eyes were bright and keen, and his voice like music; on his brow sat wisdom, and in his hand was strength.

Or is it supposed to be realistic but lighthearted? -------------------- All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence; then success is sure. --Mark Twain

Balrog Slayer Group: Tauristo Posts: 2,225 Member No.: 1 Joined: 20-October 04	I would say it's lighthearted and AU for now. Something that might be fun to write. Also, it might be shorter posts rather than the longer ones we are used to posting for more serious stuff. -------------------- Glorfindel was tall and straight; his hair was of shining gold, his face fair and young and fearless and full of joy; his eyes were bright and keen, and his voice like music; on his brow sat wisdom, and in his hand was strength.
