(I meant wherever. I hate keypads!) I say Rivendell. What do you think?

_________________

I was thinking Rivendell or maybe where our characters are from. (Remember this is the planning thread, so we're not starting here)

I am interested, but what do you mean by no magic? Are you talking about people who use magic, or the magic of romance? Sorry, just want to make sure that I understand the rules properly.

Whoops. I kind of forgot about the wizards so I took out the magic thing.
Do you want to join?

Yes, I would like to join, but if there is no magic then I will need to switch up a few things for my character, but that's not a big deal. I have a few variations of him so I'll just work off the one that works best, and adapt one for this, easy.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure a bit of magic is okay.

Um, I don't know. I mean, it would be nice, but that would be kinda majorly changing it.... so I say no, but if you want to that's ok too.

If it's OK then I would like to use two characters. Also I think having the ability to change some events would be OK, but we would have to do things to make sure that it didn't mess stuff up to much. Personally I would like it if both Boromir, and Theodred where able to survive, but is a choice we would have to agree on, or I would think so at least. If you want me to take out the part about magic, than I can.

There are crimson stones set in his gauntlets which allow him a small measure of magical abilities. With them he is able to use some healing abilities, as well as creating light, and creating, and controlling, fire.

Personality: He is a bit of a smart alec, and likes to make sarcastic jokes. He is a dedicated friend, and would lay down his life if it meant saving one of his friends. He is slow to anger, but has to watch himself so that he doesn't lose his temper at the wrong time. He is a wild fighter, because he chooses to let loose his anger during combat.

Appearance: He has black heir, grey eyes, he has a really well built body, his ears start to look like an elfs then curve off. He wears a long sleeved black shirt, long black pants, black boots, a long black cloack, and a necklace with a dragons head. He has a pair of Gauntlets that have a dragons head designed on them with crimson stones that rest in the dragons eyes. He also has a black quiver with a silver dragon wrapping around it, and his Longbow has two dragons connected at there tails. He can also twist the ends of his bow off, which look like dragons talons, to use his bow as a walking stick, or a fighting staff.

History: He was born the youngest of the twins. They where fraternal and not identical twins. His parents decided to send him to live with a friend couple of theirs within the Dunedain, so that if anyone ever discovered their heritage and tried to kill them then they wouldn't all die. He was given the name Anarion, as well as the Dunedain name Zôrzagar. His adoptive father died when he was fifteen, and his adoptive mother died when he was twenty. He had grown over the years into one of the best warriors of the Dunedain. When he was twenty-five he met Gandalf, who was fighting off some goblins, and he mistook him as an old man in danger. He joined in the battle, and afterwards learned who he had helped. Gandalf gave him the gauntlets he now uses, because he saw the good in his heart, and as a thank you for the help in the battle. When he was thirty he was sent on a quest with Aragorn, and when it was completed they visited their mother who upon seeing her youngest son broke down crying, and told them of what their parents had done. He grew to be close to his brother, and birth parents. When out hunting one day, when he was forty, he met Gror, and they decided to travel together, and became close friends. Gror taught him how to use every plant usefully as for healing, food, or as a weapon against an enemy. He traveled many times through Mirkwood over the years and had become a good friend of the royal family there. He is nicknamed, The Dragon, because of his furious fighting style, and all of the depictions of dragons that he has on him.

Name: Gror

Race: Dwarf

Height: 4'5

Age: unknown

Family: Gloin(Father), Gimli(Twin-brother)

Weapons: 8 throwing axes, 8 poison axes, twin medium axes, and 1 Battel axe

Personality: He is a kind soul who loves a good time, but he also is a mighty warrior. He enjoys studying plants that could be best used as healing herbs, as a powerful poisons against his enemies, as well as just for regular use in food.

He carries his throwing axes around his waist on his belt, he carries his poison axes on his arms and legs, 2 on each of them, he has his twin medium axes that hang upside down in the form of an X on his back, and his battle ax hang's between his twin medium axes on his back. He is slimmer then most dwarfs, he is also a lot more well built then other dwarfs, his beard is black and reaches down to his belly.

History: He is the younger twin of Gimli, and studied as a blacksmith, and a warrior. However he decided that he preferred the forest to caves, and working with plants to working with metals. So he started moving around living with Elf’s to learn whatever he can about different plants, and the forests, and animals that lived in them. While out gathering plants one day he met Anarion, and they decided to travel together. They have become very close friends, and he has even taught Anarion much of what he knows about plants. His brother Gimli likes to tease him calling him "An Elf trapped in the body of a Dwarf."
