Shadows Among the Ruins

This is the OOC information for our bi-weekly campaign.

Currently the events we weave our RP around happen (time-wise) after the fall of Mordirith. Nevertheless, Angmar itself remains a force to be reckoned with. Therefore, the Wyld Hunt assists the Council of the North any way it can - especially in the wake of the Grey Company gathering to travel South, in order to join Aragorn.

Yes, it is still a perilous time for the North.

Any new-joining character should be aware that the campaign will continue tomorrow, on Sunday, 31st of January, in Esteldin, North Downs.

Still, that is, by far, not the only location we will RP at, as, depending on who joins us, we have further plots to pursue, in the Shire, Ered Luin and/or Bree-land.

If interested, please contact Shemkel, Mahin or Elufer in-game.

At least one person should be online half an hour prior to the start of the next episode (that is half to eleven AM, EST).

As usual, IC (or story-like) glimpses into the campaign are available on Laurelin Archives.

Roam free, both Wolves and guests.

Prologue: Blinded Angmar

The prologue to our bi-weekly campaign starts this Sunday (3rd of January, 2016).
The setting of the campaign covers (mainly) Eriador and happens during the post-Moridith Angmar; still a big threat to the North, but now leaderless and blind in rage.
Roving orc warbands, minor Cargul trying to force their will onto Angmarin, while they fight between themselves for scraps of power.
During the time of our prologue, Grey Company gathers on their way to the South, enduring, with a heavy heart, leaving their beloved lands behind, with but a skeleton crew of Dunedains to protect them.

We are ones to help them now, to provide intelligence and hunt those leaders that come to power.
We are insanely outnumbered, but not alone.
Men, dwarves, elves and hobbits, all of the Free Folk who do not hide out of fear, are our allies.

Together we prevail.
Together we strike fear into hearts of the wicked.

Shemkel Mornheneb, the Dark Hunter

[The prologue starts at noon, server time, on Sunday.
If unable to get to Esteldin on time, make your way to one of the big hubs, like Bree, Ost Guruth, Rivendell, and send a tell to Shemkel - I will be able to port you.
The prologue will be tailored according to the characters who start with us, but fear not - missing an 'episode' won't make you out of touch. The campaign will continue and events shall be recorded for everyone.]
