Ok, I'll make it easier:

1. For this particular RPG we stay within the boundaries of canon. But say canon was silent on a certain point and it is open for conjecture, can we fill in the gap? (within reason, of course)


Yes of course. I mean if you want to elaborate on some of say perhaps Aragorn's adventures before becoming king that wasn't specified by Tolkien, by all means.

2. After we have our character, then what? What exactly does 'posting twice a week' consist of? Posting what?


Well traditionally twice a week means answering your tags or writing something like a character developement post for what your character is doing at the time. Say for example, someone tags your character for a response, you need to respond to it within the week and if you're tagged again, twice, within the same week. It means that you don't leave someone waiting for you for an entire week to post your character's response. Does that make sense?

No, no, not at all please do ask.

Okay what's a tag.. not a stupid question if you're a newbie and there aren't stupid questions. Please continue to ask.

This is an an example of a tag.

"Aragorn, why have you chosen an elven maid to marry when so many others would have lain with you," Legolas remarked. "Dulcie the Tavern Wench with the ample bosoms." (Very Happy)

TAG ARAGORN

Tag simply means that its Aragorn's turn to answer.


"Because her father is rich Legolas and I am but a poor mortal who will get old while ensuring my wife's ass will always remain aloft."

TAG LEGOLAS

And vice versa Very Happy

Any more questions?

These are the characters that have presently been taken. Ideally, I'd like to fill as many of the canons characters as possible. Made ups are also welcomed.

Legolas
Faramir
Lothiriel
Eomer
Eowyn

A quick question... If we are setting/beginning one month after Aragorn's coronation, and we stick to cannon, we have a month and a half before Eomer returns to fetch Theoden's body back to Rohan. So the game is set within that 45 day period, right?

Yeah that would follow. Is there a specific time when Faramir and Eowyn get married. I wanted to have Eomer heading back a little earlier. Also, if questions like these could be asked on the yahoo list, that would be good. Since if I'm not here, my mod can answer your questions.
