THE COUNCIL OF ELROND ※ RIVENDELL ※ OOC POST


THE COUNCIL OF ELROND: OOC POST

LOG POST

The Council of Elrond is commencing! This Council will allow the characters to discuss the various prophecies different peoples have had of them, as well as events going on in the greater Wilderlands beyond. Several representatives from other lands are listed explicitly in the post but players should assume a very large group of them is there, as a few more may come up when the mods are npcing.

The Council Post will allow Brughed characters to speak through the magic mirrors being enlarged and set up to float. Players should treat the post as having a network format, with branching conversations that the npcs will join in on.

This Council is a chance for characters to learn more about the exact nature of their role in the Wilderlands and about some of the specifics of different threats beyond.


NOTES

Free-for-all Post: This event will be in "free-for-all" format, meaning that threadhopping is encouraged and that threading should be treated in the same conversational way as network posts with branching threads.

Joint network Post. Due to the magic mirrors being widened and set to float, characters in the Brugh can participate in the conversation, even if they can't be there physically. When posting please note if your character is in the Brugh when started a thread by putting Brugh in the subject of one of the earliest posts.

Post in bracketspam format. Plots and mod-run events in the game are meant to be in actionspam format to keep a brisk pace. Characters that are interacting via the mirrors are also technically doing it on the network.

NPCing. The mods will handle all the fantasy npcs and some may show up that aren't specifically listed in this post. There are many people at the Council.

It's okay if the conversation gets messy. It's a giant group that's going to be talking here. That means it's natural if side conversations happen, interruptions happen, or things get missed because people are talking over each other and switching conversational partners.

A private discussion will happen later. A crossroads post and private conversation among the squad will happen after the Council so they can decide for themselves what to do next and how to handle what they've learned.
