So, um, if I want to be the prototypical Tolkien geek and play a Legolas rip-off, would that be a BAAAAD thing?
I don't see a problem with it. And Col. H. and I are both playing Men, you there won't be 6 elfs.
Oh, and on a completely unrelated note, my Dunadan Noble will ber absolutely no resembelence to Boromir.
Really.

I have no problem with one or even two elves. What I don't want is the "elven mercenary company of rivendell, inc" showing up.
If you want to play a Legolas type elf, go for it. I just need to see the background.
Everyone please read <<Character Generation info here>>
I can handle 7 characters - I think he says as he remembers he has never run a play by post before - but that's about it.
I'm still working on the campaign concept, but you folks can start working on character concepts and backgrounds if you want. I need to see them before you start generating characters.
As far as backgrounds and how you all come together as a group is concerned, it will depend on where each of your characters come from in ME. The game will begin sometime around Yule TA 3018 and the characters will come together in the wilds near Amon Sul (Weather Top). You will each have been sent there by someone (could a different someone for each character) to join an expedition and receive further instructions from a guide "you will know by his green mail."
You can feel free to work how you get sent to this Rendezvous into your background or we can work it out together later.
For character creation, we will follow the summary included in the attachment using the pick method except for the following changes.
1) the base attibutes are 10, 9, 7, 7, 7, 6 and you get 9 points to distribute as you wish.
2) Each character gets two advancements
Let me know if you have any questions.
