I, the GameMaster, have trapped you. Now you must do my bidding. There is no question of walking off - those of you who have families will never see them again, and those without will never see anything except death again. No mercy for the deserters. But so long as you obey, no harm should come to you from me. This is Arda, my friends, and it's not always pretty.

Your first challenge will be to engage in combat with an enemy patrol, about ten soldiers, who are escorting a valuable gift. These are horsemen, with a wagon amongst them, so they won't be especially fast. Their armour is roughly mail, although there are a few pieces of leather and the odd bit of plate, so this is no easy task. Their weapons are very mixed - but without swords, and seem to be steel from where you stand. Whomever they are, you will have to act as one to beat them.

I'll wait for either eight people to join, or until midday on the 17th of August 2016 (UTC) to start. You may post only one character here, and for any others a request will have to come to my wall. As usual, I will control the actions of the enemies, and the resolutions of your own actions. I'm warning you here, I like high levels of realism, so stealth is hard, and fighting is harder. Sometimes, perhaps, it would've even been an option to talk to them. Without further ado, here's the template;

Name: Race: Age: Gender: Equipment: Experience in a fight: Personality:

I'll throw in Itallië to act as a tutorial guide for now, and kill her off when I think you guys are ready for me to do so, so here's your "starter pack". She'll be more OP than you guys, but that's because you're supposed to learn.

Name: Itallië Cal'endurë Race: Vanyarin elf (to put it simply) Age: Since the light of the Two Lamps shone, and Nessa and Tulkas were married, she was very little. It's a bit of an in-joke with her family that perhaps she wasn't their child, and instead had something to do with the fact of that marriage. Gender: Female Equipment: Mail armour, rather well forged, a spear from a "good friend", and her father's bow. Experience in a fight: She has fought in countless wars, over the many years. The War of Wrath would be a big one, in which she fought alongside her family well. You could probably call her a veteran, although she's still very able. Personality: Kind, considerate, loves things such as nature, but bite her tail and she'll bite of your head.
