Lord of the Rings Fanatics Plaza

WHO WOULD YOU BE??

Come one, come all!! Come join in a new Plaza-wide RPG, featuring canon characters, canon-adjacent characters, your personal characters, and any mix of the three!

We hope this is going to be a large RPG, but we want it to move snappily and for everyone to have a chance to play some canon characters. What is the plot? We'll decide that once everyone comes in and tells us what canon characters they're interested in playing! That's right- you tell us in the signup thread which FOUR canon characters you would be interested in playing. Any character that would be alive in Middle Earth between the time of the Hobbit and the LotR is up for grabs!

Not sure what we mean by canon adjacent? Come to the thread and find out!

Not sure if you have time to commit to a big RP? That's ok- we're not looking for huge posts every time, and we're also implementing a rotating cast so roles will be covered if someone has to miss a prompt!

Not sure if you want to play, or just want to spectate? Come give us your top four canon characters anyway, and help influence the plot! ALL can list your choices!

Come play a game of high stakes hide and seek against Tolkien fanatics as residents of Rivendell in the reborn

Everyone deserves to relax. Even the lowly minions of Mordor. That's why Reg and Fleeg have joined ChAoTiC forces and opened Mordor's first spa!

"The sun is low and the storm clouds are nigh; come along ye jaded, long lost travelers and rest your weary heads. Listen to the tales of far away lands, revel in tales of heroes and villains, while away the hours by the fire and hear tales of romance and betrayal, of rendered hearts and skewered foes. Rest your tired bones a while, then, dear traveler, spins us a tale of your own glory and renown."

The Dumpster Dive

It's a "lovely day" and you are presumably a raccoon, because you're in Fangorn, and you have stumbled upon a vast and reeking dumpster! Tres exciting! Who knows what treasures may lurk within?! Some may have value, some may not. I (well Sil) invite(s) you to plunge into the noisome depths and see what you can retrieve…
