Morgoth, in his bid for middle earth, has swarmed the sources of the Naraog and Teiglin rivers, as well as the upper region of the Sirion. This place is know as the North-Marshes, and is gaurded by Doriath elves who call themselves "Marshwardens." At theis time, and unending war is being waged between the Marshwardens and the invading orcs.

As you might have gathered from my into, in this RP you'll miost likely be playing a marshwarden. And, since this is a middle earth RP, let me lay down some ground rules.
1) No un-middle-earthy powers, or I'll have to slap you upside the head. That means no telekenisis, no invisability power, or uber healing skill, please.
2) Try your
very hardest to be an elf. I know its hard, but the truth is the marchwardens were elves. But, I will allow
2 of you to be humans. (Exceptions would be Turin. If any of you want to play him, be my guest)
3) Follow all the regular rules of RPing: No powerplaying, no swearing, common curtesy...I think you all know what I'm talking about.
