Just to confirm Wally, I do not have the book and will need help with the character.

Yep. Just get me a character concept and background, and then I will put together a draft character for you to look at.

Hey, can we post our PC's here? (Assuming my last version passed muster.)

I'm kinda psyched for this game :D

Your last version was fine. :)

You can post it here if you like. I will want everyone to post a description and as much info as you want to share once you are all together in the game setting.
 

All right, I figured out what I am going to play. I shall be a Dwarven Warrior/Crafter. Backstory will be posted as it becomes available...so stay tuned.

Strabo is a Bree hobbit from Staddle in Bree-land. A bit of a wanderer and dreamer( for a Bree-hobbit), which his neighbors attribute to his Tookish blood, he nonetheless lives an isloated but comfortable life on his small farm by Bree hill. In many ways he is a typical hobbit, with perhaps a few eccentric (for a Bree hobbit) quirks of behavior.

Friends and family will tell you however, that Strabo is mischievous and often frowns on the loud Big Folk that come into Bree, disturbing the peace. And curiously enough, despite the rather common nature of his very small cottage farm, Strabo never seems to have a shortage of coin, which allows him to stock a fine larder and kitchen(even for a Bree hobbit).

Boy, I sure hope Strabo doesn't live in a glass house. :p

Looks good Daiymo! No LotR game is complete without a Hobbit in it.

LOL. Thanks.

I imagine Strabo will be hiding in shadows alot when a brawl breaks out given all the barbaians, warriors, rangers, knights we're going to have in the group.

DM: "A pack of trolls emerge from the hills ahead"
Group: "Attack!Die Fell Beast!"
Strabo: "Hey, I think I saw some kingsfoil a ways back, I'll catch up with you guys in a bit."/insert roadrunner beep-beep and puff of smoke as hobbit runs away.
