'Searching for the things you used to know,
Looking for the place .. where the lost things go.'
**

When the NuPlaza came into being, there were a lot of these types of link threads; where those of us who have spent a ridiculous amount of time over the space of some ten years plus, creating and developing characters to exist in a Tolkien roleplay setting .. can basically, keep track of all the little milestones and memories.

There are rather less roleplayers throughout the site these days, and less roleplay to read and work with, as a result. And that is a shame. But perhaps in an effort for me at least to remember what has come before, and be able to retrieve the puzzle pieces of a particular character's past .. I figured that I shall show up very very late to the party, and create a little catalogue of links.

Because anyone who knows me knows how complicated the interweaving of my various (no doubt too many) characters' stories can become. And honestly, I lose track of details which are later required to be referenced in more recent roleplay. This *might* just keep me sane. Maybe.

So this is my little place where the lost things go, with credit to the song from Mary Poppins 2** for inspiring the title, and credit furthermore to all of those writers who have come before me and collected their own works in a similar sort of a manner. Thank you for the inspiration. Imitation, so they say, is the sincerest form of flattery.

I shall begin, naturally, with a post for my IC namesake/plaza username (explanations in her biography). I intend only one post per character, though some of those posts shall inevitably end up more extensive than others. I'm looking at you .. Gondor/Umbar ! :lol:

Feel free to read as you like, or else rush right on away with your day. No harm, no foul.

In the immortal words of Bernard Hill/Theoden ... 'So it begins ..'


[EDIT - Edits are, in this thread, of course inevitable. Until I stop posting Roleplay, or just forget to update those roleplays here]

@Rillewen

I wasn’t going to get around to these particular characters quite so soon, but seeing as they and their deeds are becoming more frequently referenced etc, maybe it is helpful to bump them up my list. Here are my posts/RPs involving the House of Halsad

NB. Arkadhur is not a 'recognised' member of House Halsad, as things currently stand, so his posts will be linked separately from this post. In the near-ish (maybe) future.
