Dwarven Caravan Market

Come one and all to the Dwarven Caravan Market! This is a Dwarven-themed RP market event that will take place EVERY Thursday at a different trading settlement along the major trade route used by Dwarves to get to their mines in the Blue Mountains. This trade route will take the Dwarven Caravan Market through Thorin’s Hall, Gondamon, Needlehole, Bree, Ost Guruth, Rivendell, Gloin’s Camp, and other settlements of interest for the Dwarves. And every market will have a unique RP situation to connect it to the context of a wider Middle-Earth. So come and join the Dwarves of Durin's Folk as they travel upon the open road in order to bring wealth and prosperity wherever they go!

Event details:

This Week's RP Situation: Recently in Thorin’s Hall there has been some shocking news. Frimsi Gembeard, Uzbad of the order of Durin’s Folk, narrowly survived an assassination attempt by the nefarious criminal organization known as the mashaknan. His cart was stuffed with kegs of explosive powder and was meant to explode when Frimsi entered. But Frimsi being quite experienced in evading assassination attempts was able to quickly realize what was going on and jump out of the cart just in time. Frimsi was thankfully unharmed even if his beard was singed, but much to his dismay most of his merchandise was totally ruined in the explosion. Now the Dwarves of Thorin’s Hall anxiously discuss what is to be done. If they cannot protect their (mostly) respected Uzbads, who is safe? And more importantly whose money is safe? The Dwarven Caravan Market tries to continue business as usual as such tensions and anxieties plague Thorin’s Hall.

OOC details:

A few OOC details to consider:

1) This RP event will take place during a POST-war timeline. So for the most part for this RP event we will be assuming a timeline that is up to date with what is going on in the game plot wise.

2) Anyone is allowed to attend as a vendor should he or she want to. And the exchange of in-game items as a vendor in the market is OPTIONAL. Though this is first and foremost a RP event, so if you aren't a RPer you probably would not enjoy attending.

3) If you need help getting to one of the markets when it is hosted in a higher level area, please contact one of the officers of Durin's Folk for help getting there.

4) EVERYONE is welcome!
