Here's a new RPG I wanted to start.
Mordor is begining to be retaken by the Orcs. The point of this is to try and retake it from the Orcs. The Orcs are starting to attack Gondor too, so we need to asist their armies. You can be either a dwarf, a man, an elf, or a hobbit.

Wow. You managed to get a whole two guys here before the inevitable [insert species of choice] handmaidens started appearing. I congratulate you.

Sex: Male

;) :) Why thank you. But I don't mind Elven Maidens, or any maidens. Just don't run it over with 'em. Heck, maybe will have a few marriages after the war!:rolleyes: :cool: :D
P.S.Hobbits are good too!:D

Sorry. Didn't mean to sound quite so mean when spoke about various females. Mouth just runs away with me sometimes.
Although it will be quite funny when the women of Middle Earth all rise up to battle evil, while most of the guys stay home and watch the football.
Am a girl writing a guy. This could cause problems in the romance department. There's only so far I'm prepared to go...
Oh, what the hell. Bring it on!

I had been wondering about your avatar, Faeirex.:D
Nariel Starfire
05-20-2002, 12:00 PM
okay, when do we start? I'd love to get going. I have no qualms about any romance that might happen: It's been scarce around these RPGs. And, Faramir: Yoda is in deed da man!
Faramir
05-20-2002, 06:45 PM
Agreed!
Anyway, if this seems like enough people, I'll start it.

Earang, you can be a bad guy. But that won't work well in the plot.
Eäráng
05-24-2002, 06:54 PM
Well, hey, there needs to be a bad guy. Just to keep things interesting. Now the Orcs have a chance to fight against the other races...:p
Laredith
05-28-2002, 08:59 PM
C'mon! When will it start already?
Faramir
06-17-2002, 04:37 PM
O.K.,O.K., I'm starting it. Look for: The War of All Races: The Actual Story. I'll need a little help, because this is the first RPG I've ever started. Oh, and Feairex, if you want since your character is a male, it could be like the whole Eowyn thing, going to war in disguise. Just a personal opinion.
Faeirex
06-17-2002, 05:26 PM
Huh? Wot did you mean? My character is a woman dressed as a guy? My guy is going to war dressed as a woman? Everyong else is men dressed as women? Everyone else is women dressed as men?
I'm far too easily confused...

No Faramir, I wanna know what you're talking about. Sorry, but It'll just bug me otherwise. I can't help being dumb. Pleeeeeeeeeeease?:D
Anyway, while I'm here, rather than me just wandering off on my own private storyline, are there any ideas you have for things Madjael could do that would be useful to the storyline? It might be nice to actually interact with people rather than just doing many posts talking about how handsome I am, and how wonderful I am, etc.
And how pushy girls annoy me.
I will try to avoid insulting the various females too much, but some of them are going just a bit too far...[alright, a lot too far. As in several miles out to sea and still accelerating]. It's a bit hypocritical, as if I had chosen a female character I would probably end up doing exactly the same thing, but the fact is, I didn't. And while I should stand up for my sex, it is simply a fact that girls can't fight as well as guys. For one thing, they have poor spacial awareness, so have nowhere near as good an aim. For another thing, they are simply not as strong. Unless you have some huge butch womens-football-playing girl, which I don't think anybody wants, there's no way they will even be able to lift a longsword, let alone have the strength to block a thrust.
Hey, I do my homework. I know what I'm talking about.
Rant over. This has no real purpose, it was just a general ramble. Please don't tell me that this is only a RPG etc, because I know that. I don't take it that seriously, I just felt the need for these things to be said. Feel free to ignore it is it's not what you want to hear [have a feeling only Faramir and Earang will read this now. Ah well].
I'm just writing whatever comes into my head, and will continue to do so. Hey, that's just me. I won't sugar-coat my opinions for anybody.
So, any ideas for what I should do? I take it challenging women to a duel to prove my strength is not an option :D
Oops. Sorry. Again.

Listen,I kick harder than any boy in my grade, and im more athletic than any boy in my grade.so stop flaming girls.
Faeirex
06-22-2002, 06:09 PM
I'm not flaming girls, I'm pointing out facts. I'm sorry if you have a problem with that.
I do karate, so I'm trained to kick and punch, and to block blows. I can totally believe that you can take the guys in your year on. Girls can fight, I know that. All I was saying is they're not as strong. Cold, hard facts.
Just deal. Move on. Fine, you may not agree with me. But can you at least conceed I may have a point?
~Fae
Faramir
06-22-2002, 07:48 PM
Stop fighting! Please! Really, no getting mad at your friends, just the Orcs. And Faeirex, don't be so hard on your gender, your beating yourself up.:D And Christiana, I'm glad you've joined, there's no problem with it. I am a little surprised there are only 3 boys. Wow...
Faeirex
06-23-2002, 08:13 AM
Faramir! I'm shocked!
This is not fighting. It happens to be a 'debate'. And I am very good at 'debating'. Just leave me be, it keeps me happy.
I'm not being hard on my gender either. In most ways, girls are far superior to boys. I'm just telling it like it is.
It's nice to see you being so open minded and trying to keep the peace, but providing I don't push anybody far enough to hire a hitman, we're fine. At least, I'm fine.
You ignored my pleas for ideas, and my question about the Eowyn thing. Once again, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?

I'm totally in agreement with Fae. And I'm a girl. It's true. Men do have a stronger upper body build than women. Don't get on me about this: I'm majoring in biology. With the exception of only the East German women's olympic team (and I can dog them because I'm german), the average man can throw farther, run longer, shoot farther, than the average woman. I leave room for the exceptions (such as the EGWOT).
Okay, so Christiana you're buff. So. In Fourth and fifth grade I could run faster than anyone else in my school save the High school boys. I could also throw farther, but not as hard. I also had greater endurance. I could run three miles in an hour whereas it took everyone else (again, save the High school boys) longer. Now, I've never done any archery, but I have pretty good aim at darts. And I've always been able to lift loads that surprised people (considering my size). and in case anyone's wondering, in fourth grade, I turned ten and weighed 70 pounds.
Now, in defense of my character, I've made her train for most of her life. When I say she's formidable with a sword or bow, I mean she's a great shot. I'm not saying she has matches with Legolas, but I'm saying that, for a human, she's pretty darn good and doesn't miss often. With a sword it's the same. For a girl, she can fence pretty good. She might not get out of this war alive, considering she's fighting a bunch of guys (namely orcs), but she can hold her own in hand-to-hand. There's nothing wrong with a buff girl. All I ask is that we don't have any wonder-women.
Faramir
06-23-2002, 02:03 PM
I don't really see what's so shocking about what I said. Please take this argument to another thread if you will. And I meant if you didn't like your character being a man, he/she could go to war disguised like Eowyn. Is it that confusing? Well, maybe.:p
Faeirex
06-23-2002, 02:13 PM
Faramir, I repeat, IT'S NOT AN ARGUMENT!!!
*coughs* Ahem.
It's ok, I feel I have made my point now. Henceforth I will remain silent on the subject of she-warriors. Happy now?
And I do like my character being a man. That's why I chose a guy. I'm gonna have lots of fun being a big macho guy type person, so don't worry.
Yes, you were that confusing. Or not really, but I didn't understand you, which amounts to the same thing. I really should actually post on the story at some point, shouldn't I...
Christiana
06-23-2002, 02:51 PM
My character's had 2,807 years of practice:D
Also,can we get on w/ the game?
