'At the Sign of the Prancing Pony' (Every Saturday, 3:00 PM)

in

This Week's (September 13, 2025) Hook:

Snitches may get stitches, but at least they’ll make a bit of coin on the side 

Following Bob’s alleged gaming indiscretions, the Watch has realised that they need to broaden their investigation into the ring that he was involved with — and to look into the activities of one Wilco, hobbit of Bree.

At the House of the Setting Sun

What kind of Adventure is this?: 
Story

Directly across the shrine dedicated to He-Who-Sees-All sat the manor, its outer walls a cheerful coral color and shutters teal, by all outward signs, just another rich home in the Upper Ward. In the courtyard several dwarves fanned themselves with palm leaves as they loitered around a fountain of whitest marble, carved all over with marvelous designs. They were swarthy-skinned, with gold gleaming in their teeth and threaded through their thick beards.

What kind of Adventure is this?: 
Story

We travelled slowly uphill, past the Stonecrop Encampment where we had arranged to meet up with Captain Culufinnel and along the road towards Herne. He was waiting by the crossroads there, and looked as if he may have been for some time. The Captain let out a single deep sigh of relief as he saw us, the warmth from which misted the air before him, showing pale against the leaden sky.

Daughter of the Fairy King


For the next bedtime I chose to begin tellin' me grandkids a different type of story: an epic adventure. I also thought me stories might be more interestin' if the hero or heroine seemed a more like one of 'em:

Even small differences from one's peers can be the source of derision. Beannaithe's insect wings and her inability to speak are BIG differences.

Pellas

Pellas
Status: 
Active
Race: 
Elf
Kinship Link: 
Wandering Earth
Background: 

In the veiled vales of Imladris, where the Bruinen sang secrets to the stars, Pellas was born in Quellë of the year 100 T.A. of Erestor's line. Her father, the stoic archivist whose quill had traced the threads of the Elder Days, poured into her the lambengolmar's fire: the sinuous coils of Quenya runes, the lamenting cadences of Sindarin lays, the hidden geometries of Tengwar that bound word to world.

The Dwarrow Ting

Calling all Dwarves to Thorin’s Hall! With Lord Dwalin’s blessing, Uzbad Frimsi of Durin’s Folk seeks to revive the ancient tradition of the Dwarrow Ting. This is a meeting in which all Dwarves active in Ered Luin are welcome to attend so as to share plans for great works and to join each other in good fellowship. Dwarves of all kinds are welcome, whether they be in a kinship or not. It is the ancient custom of the Dwarrow Ting that every Dwarf that wishes to speak shall be heard regardless of his status.

Merchant's Guild Council Meeting

Come join the merchants of Bree-land as they bicker endlessly over trivial matters in the Merchant’s Guild Council Meeting. The Merchant’s Guild is an advisory body to the Mayor and as such has no real, direct political power. So the Mayor will likely discard or ignore the majority of petitions sent to him by the Merchant’s Guild. But the fun of political RP is in the process, not the results!

An Unexpected Market

in

Come one and all to this month’s Unexpected Market! This is a RP market event that will be a bit different than the usual Dwarven Caravan Markets that Durin’s Folk hosts. Once every few months there will be an Unexpected Market in which the Dwarves of Durin’s Folk visit some exotic, distant trading settlement that is well off the usual Dwarven trade routes. So come and join the Dwarves of Durin's Folk as they travel to random trading settlements across Middle-Earth in order to bring to them wealth and prosperity! And perhaps a healthy measure of mischief too!
