It was decided that a council must be held, to address several burning questions. For example, how did Sauron weave his will into these wretched devices? And who was to blame for trusting Annatar, despite warnings from the wisest of the elves? The answer seemed clear to most. The leader of the Gwaith-i-Mírdain must be held accountable for these failings.

Celebrimbor proclaimed his innocence, stating that he had been blinded by his desire to put an end to the plight of the Eldar on Middle-Earth. When further questioned about the Rings, however, he stubbornly refused to answer, and continued to plead his blamelessness. After three full days of emphatic denial from the smith, a vote was held, and a majority resolved to put an end to Celebrimbor’s asinine assertions.

And so, in an ironic twist of fate, the last of the line of Fëanor was slain, marking the start of the fourth Kinslaying. The elf who slew him promptly searched his belongings, revealing…

Flip

You are Celebrimbor, leader of the Gwaith-i-Mírdain and heir to your grandfather Fëanor’s legendary smithing skill. When Annatar first came to Eregion, you were overjoyed by the opportunity he presented. With his help, you would finally be able to put an end to the curse of fading that all elves experience while residing in Middle-Earth. However, Annatar was in fact the Dark Lord Sauron in disguise, poisoning your mind while working alongside you. Now, you serve only his wishes.

You are an Agent of Sauron.

Abilities
Fëanor’s Heir: The last living member of the house of cursed artifacts.
Each night, you may use one Ring possessed by a teammate as if it were your own. However, you may not choose a Ring that they are already using.

Agent of Sauron: You serve the Dark Lord’s bidding.
You may speak with your team at any time. Additionally, your team may kill a player each night. Finally, when giving a Ring away, you may choose to give it to Sauron, effectively removing it from the game. You win when all of the Rings have been sent to Sauron in this way, or when nothing can prevent the same from happening.

It is now night one. Night ends in approximately 24h from this post. Get those actions in!

The leaders of the council were stunned. How is it possible that their esteemed leader could fall under the influence of Sauron? If his betrayal is true, how can anybody else be trusted? After more than a few glasses of wine, the councilors decide to retire for the night, unsure what to expect in the days to come.

That night, a dream is shared among the Eldar of Eregion. A black host marches forth from a black gate, their iron boots crushing the detritus below as smog billows above. The scene is lit only by a great Eye, lidless and wreathed in flame, its gaze piercing cloud, shadow, earth and flesh. Soon, all of Middle-Earth will bathe in its wicked glow…

The next morning, the council reconvenes uneasily. Still unsettled by the events of the night before, the elves prepare themselves for another long trial. However, it’s not long before it becomes clear that something is amiss: the prince of Lórien has not been seen since he stumbled off to his chamber a few hours ago, and his fiancée, who went to care for him, is likewise missing. A few concerned glances are exchanged, and the gathering swiftly relocates itself to the prince’s room, dreading what it knows it will find. There, on the floor, Amroth is sprawled; in his back rests a dagger of intricate design, bearing the brand of the late Celebrimbor, and slumped over his lifeless body is his beloved Nimrodel, who would have followed him into the Undying Lands, had death not claimed him first.

Key's flip

You are Amroth, prince of Lórien. Despite wishing to marry your beloved Nimrodel as quickly as possible, you find yourself unable to abandon your people in their time of need. As such, you have answered the call to Eregion, to aid the people there in any way you can. Perhaps when you’ve finished here, you will travel West to the Undying Lands, where finally you and your dearest love will be at peace.

You are a Loyal Eldar.

Abilities
Betrothed: While the world lacks peace, your beloved refuses to marry.
You are lovers with Nimrodel. You know that she is a Loyal Eldar, but if she dies, you will too. You may speak with her in a private topic at any time.

Loyal Eldar: There is some good in this world, and it’s worth fighting for.
You win when all of the Agents of Sauron have been eliminated.

chesskid3's flip

You are Nimrodel. After spending countless years living in solitary in the golden woods of Lothlórien, the rumblings of a new evil have disturbed your reverie. Together with your beloved, you’ve come West with the intent of sailing to the Undying Lands. However, before you leave, he insists on guaranteeing lasting peace for those you’ll leave behind.

You are a Loyal Eldar.

Abilities
Betrothed: Marriage is out of the question so long as the threat of war looms over Middle-Earth.
You are lovers with Amroth. You know that he is a Loyal Eldar, but if he dies, you will too. You may speak with him in a private topic at any time.

Loyal Eldar: There is some good in this world, and it’s worth fighting for.
You win when all of the Agents of Sauron have been eliminated.

sup

apologies for my pretty awful play near EoD; just didn’t have the time to go over things how i wanted to

pleasantly surprised by M2H wolf flip; think beeboy and ActionDan are pretty town from their push barring reread

will devote my full attention to this game on wednesday; moving back east tomorrow for school. want to get full reads list out and do some hardcore interaction analysis which should narrow down the pool significantly

want to look at people who pushed my wagon for starters; my gut tells me that there’s someone who bussed M2H and one who tried to push the counterwagon

VOTE: Ellibereth

Wrong on M2, more importantly imo the dissonance between “key and chess aren’t masons” and pushing proph instead.

Plus key’s scumElli read.

Sheep me lads!
