*giggles* Tied to the back of a boar, Daddy? Heehee...You�re so silly! What, do you want me to be roasted with the piggies or something?
Pellakal
Ah, Braga! I see this is going to be one of those nice family outings for you, eh? Such fun! And watch out Nura! He�s the fastest man in ME at rope-tying!
Braganil Goslan
Oh great and mighty GM, i.e. Pelly - Anora got grounded for a week, thusly won�t be able to participate inthe hunt! We need one more hunter now, and I think Fend was trying to sign up just after Anora. Right?
Pellakal
Ah, that is too bad for Anora! I�m sorry you will not have your entire familly with you, Braga!
But good news for Fend! Aye lad, if you are out there, you can come join us! If you don�t see this post, I�ll track you down somehow!
Fend
*smiles and rises from his seat* Hurrah! *gets a steel tipped spear ready*
Nuraeariel
Aww...Too bad for Mummy. *smiles brightly* Just think of it this way, Daddy, that means you can spend even more quality time with your dearest daughter, moi! And that�s good news, isn�t it?!
Just one more day, everyone!
Braganil Goslan
Oh Gods, Valar and Eru! *looks at Nura, and quickly walks over to Pelly* Quick, gimme a boar costume so I can hiiiiiiide!
Elena Fyrsceald
The boar hunt is tomorrow! *Dives into bed to get beauty sleep. Wakes up almost blonde.* Now I look even more rohirric!
Pellakal
(OOC: Well, I can�t stand the suspense! Time for the hunt to get started! hoo hoo hoo! Forth Hunteroonies! )
*Pellakal stood looking over the plains of Rohan in the early morning, gazing at a solitary figure riding towards him. Beagno� dismounts and converses quickly with Pell.
The hunters are gathered near the stables, laughing about their deeds of prowess in similar excursions. Conversation halts as Pell and Beagno� walk up. Pell speaks out in a clear voice*
"Gathered hunters of Rohan and Gondor! The time long awaited has come! Beagno� has reported that the boars, four of them, are holed up in the Firien Woods, by the borders of our lands! You shall have to ride down the Great West Road, which shall not take much time! Beagno� shall be your guide and counsellor when and if you require his services.
All of you are equiped with a horn and a short sword, and you have your chioce of either a bow and quiver or a long ash spear. (please post your choice. There shall be no switching of weapons once we have started!) May Bema strengthen your arms, my lords! And may you return laden with the fruits of the hunt!"
Please post, in character of coures, your choice of weapons and how you are armored. There are no restrictions on how you are clothed and armored - only no mithril please!
Here is the link to the map: Firion Wood is at the borders of Rohan and Gondor
Fend
Fend walks forward into the fresh air, he see�s the plains with the grass covered in dew, he breathes in heavily and smiles.. His steel ring mail rattling as it is shaken by his movements, he puts on his pot helm and takes a short sword from the weapon rack, he also takes an long ash spear. He walks out to his horse with the cape being blown here and there as the breeze of the morning breaks against it.
Braganil Goslan
*Ready to hunt and have a good time spilling boar blood, Braganil of Gondor stands next to his mount Rahedan with his self-made ash spear ready at hand. He takes a long sip out of a small leather pouch filled with 1A Gondoran whiskey, then handing the pouch to his fellow hunter Fend. He is dressed in a dark-brown scale Brigandine over a course linen shirt, a nice dark-green kilt with some thigh- long black woollen underpants adorned with white trees and white stars. In addition to the Brigandine he wears black vambraces, also with the crest of Gondor on them, as well a double-billed open hard-leather helmet, with a front and a back bill. His dark-green cloak covers his back.*
"I am ready for the hunt, I can taste the boar, can feel it, smell it. Beagno�, I how large are the boars? Are they males or females? I just hope there won�t be any stripeling�"
(OOC: Nice undies !)
*Elena has a bow and quiver of arrows; she has also smuggled a Dr. Pepper into her quiver for emergency situations. Like what? Who knows?* So, where are the boars? *This is her very first boar hunt and she is very excited*
Braganil Goslan
*Braga sees the excited Elena and hands her his whiskey pouch* Quite right, young one! We will first need to ride, maybe half a day? Firion Wood is to our south, but our horses should make good pace. You good with the arrow, my gal?
