A RP that takes place around Helms Deep. It's all about couples, young and old, and families, who are torn from one another when they take all able-bodied men to fight. Like personal accounts of the refugees.

You must play one male charrie and one female, so everyone can pair off evenly. Please, no, um, being married/courting yourself. :-D

All ideas welcome!

Good! I already have my two bio's but putting them online would involve typing them from my paper I might just scan them in because I'm so lazy!

This sounds interesting but slightly short-lived. Do you have any plot ideas for after the Battle of Helm's Deep? Do the males go off to fight in the Battle of Pelennor Fields?

Well, it's the plan to get people to join here and post bios, that way we don't have eight pages of OOC posts. :closedeyes:

Heeeey, that's a good idea. Wonder why I've never thought of that. *Goes off to find some good Rohirric names*

lol! My charries names are Ray, or Rei, I haven't decided the spelling yet, and Petten. :D I just picked.

here are the bios, but they probably aren't to great. I've never actually participated in a LotR RP before.

Name: Ray
Age: 19
Eyes: Grey blue
Hair: Medium Blonde
Appearance: Long blonde hair that she keeps up, and startlingly clear and expressive eyes. She normally wears flowing dresses in different shades of blue. ( http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g29/c ... -77241.jpg )
Personality/History: Ray is generally very calm, but not exactly quiet. She isn't loud, either, she just isn't afraid to speak out. She's absolutely terrified of leaving her home, but even more terrified of staying.

Name: Petten
Age: 25
Eyes: dark green
Hair: black
Appearance: Average stable hand type clothes. ( http://www.newfaces.com/images/userimag ... /97172.jpg ) <Ignore the elf looking ear, I think it's his hair. :erm:
Personality/History: Petten was a boy with huge dreams grown into a man determined to live out those dreams. He has always wanted to be more than a stable hand, and do more with his life.

Scýne actually wanted to be a man, eventhough her name claims her to be otherwise, she loved to go out on wild adventures with her brother which eventually got them into trouble. As she became older Scýne helped her father and brother with work on the land and her brother taught her how to use a sword -eventhough her father didn't want her to. She hated to leave Edoras, but even Scýne understood that they would be lost if they stayed.

Age: 24

Name: Arvel Yestin
Age: 17
Occupation: herder/scout
Steed: Ziva, Black w/ four full stockings and a full face blaze.
Hair: short with a typical flaxen color that’s lighter in the back from sleeping in the saddle
Eyes: deep furrowed brow/ full eyelashes to match. They conceal sparkling forest green eyes that hold his entire nature.
Body: Rather scruffy and gangly for a full grown man. His legs are muscular and thick while his upper body is agile and flexible. Skin has a deep tan that makes all scars easily visible.
Clothing: normally wears loose brown breeches and a white tunic. Over his breeches he has a belt that holds a brightly clad hand and a half sword.
Personality: He’s a just fighter that when in battle would rather kill quickly than let anyone suffer. He’s a kind man to his wife and his animals, and he seems to have an unreal understanding of all living things and why they do what they do



Name: Mejia (Me-ah) Kerttu
Age: 27
Hair: dark blonde hair with a slight ripple wave in it. Usually braided with a thick dark leather thong
Eyes: delicately sculpted around highest brows. Limpid pools of soft blue as calming as the morning sky
Body: Looks as if she could be broken by a blow of the wind, but rather she is a strong young woman who can handle herself very well among a host of war trained men.
Personality: hardy and speaks her mind to any one.
Clothing: usually wears a simple long light blue linen dress that has simple nature themed embroidery. That usually includes flowers and flamboyant bird. She always wears an apron when at work and always wears a belt with a gracefully crafted single hand sword,
Occupation: owns the combination brewery/ bakery
Steed: Paroh Perlino stallion w/ a faint white stripe.
Companions: In her shop she has what to most would resemble a Chesapeake Bay Retriever to keep her company and to keep the shop after hours named Cartech( Car-tesh)
