Wouldn't voting on this mean someone can predict where you're going to do this and therefore can prepare and meta?

What would you do if I brought up the enderkin? Am I still your favorite child? Why make an AMA? I thought you were better than this, Fury!

Merridolph grumbles something about having founded the village, before abstaining from the election.

Maybe in the future. I have an explanation for how it could happen. Dwarven raiders come and..y'know, (Word that'll get me forum banned here) the humans. The Dark Elves don't give a ****, but see it as impurity and contamination, so they abandon the halfbreeds on some island where they become Halflings.

"Boots?! BOOTS?! AN' MINAS?! Wow, bigguns are takin' two impropah things an' puttin 'em togethah!" Says Merridolph.

A lot of British TV (The older stuff, idek what's on their telly nowadays) is better than american.

((Fabulous lore...are these folks playable?))

The Applebrook Family The Applebrooks are a peculiar family. The features these redheaded fishermen, writers, musicians, farmers, and brewers bear are rare in Halfling culture. Few may ever see a redheaded Halfling, but if they do, it’s an Applebrook. This Family takes pride in its music, its specialized brews, and their knowledge. Traditions Although generally a carefree family when it comes to the careers of their children, Applebrooks often will push their children in certain directions. For one, they hope that their children will become fishermen, writers, musicians, farmers, or brewers in the future, depending on the Halfling. Applebrook clothing is typically green, and consists of vests and trousers for the males and simple laced dresses for the females. Applebrooks are also known to wear hats, a favorite among them the Paddy Cap! Applebrooks are also trained to shog from a young age, and play these 3 (or more) instruments: The Flute, The Mandolin, and the Fiddle. Some Applebrooks branch out to other instruments, and they have their very own style of Halfling music. Applebrook Music Applebrook music is peculiar, and among their songs are a few notable ones: OOC: All Lyrics are RPly translated to more LotC-ish dates, places, etc.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CCq2qvslCM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfpmuuzt3q0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxBKgOyMzSc OOC; Essentially what I’m getting at is Applebrook Music sounds like irish folk. Applebrook Porter The Applebrook Family has a secret recipe for Porter. For the most part it is standard Porter, essentially darker beer with more malt. However, they have a secret ingredient that gives it a better taste and a stronger kick. Only Applebrook brewers are aware of this ingredient, and will not share it with anyone- not even other Applebrooks if they aren’t brewers. Appearance Applebrook Halflings have a rare trait, uncommon in many other Halflings: Red hair. Although most of the time it is copper or rust colored, it is rare to see a brunette Applebrook (although they do exist). Some theorize that this is where the name comes from, due to their hair being the color of red delicious apples! Applebrooks are thinner than many Halflings, although still have very pudgy faces and sometimes are a little soft around the belly. Their hair is curly, oftentimes quite unkempt and messy! Their skin is pale, sometimes bearing freckles. Applebrooks are typically shorter than other Halflings, but not incredibly short. They usually range from about 2’8 to the standard 3 feet. Application No need for no fancy application! Just PM me in game, on the forums, or on skype about making an Applebrook. I’ll gladly help you out!

All you wandering Halflings should join Pendlemere! It was an effort to unify the remaining Halflings! There's a post on it in Halfling roleplay. If you go there, you should find me or some other Halflings. It's still in construction but we'd love the help!

2/10, I recognize one of your characters but not you, really.

I'm going to put in a more in depth feedback on Villain RP. People need to kill less liberally- you might want to notice that our characters are still PEOPLE, and most people aren't fine with murder. Another thing, I'm fine with white knight RP, as long as you do it REALISTICALLY. Never look at your character as some kind of super hero, look at them as someone who- if they saw something bad happening- would stop it. But don't make it define your character, I can't stress that enough. I think people saving the day from bandits is honestly necessary, however much bandits don't like it, because there are consequences for banditing just like there are consequences for breaking laws in real life. I will say, however, people need to be cracked down on metagaming this stuff. As a bandit, I can't stand it when someone metagames and all of a sudden it goes from a one v. one to a one v. eight. That doesn't mean, however, its wrong that a passerby would join in to try and help you. People also need to kill less often, for 2 reasons. As stated before, most people possess a moral compass (I know, hard to believe), but also, it's bad for character development. If you just die, you can't develop a fear of something, or get injured and have to cope with it for a while, or if you're the bandit you can get captured and have to RP a prisoner or something! But if you just die, you forget all about the RP and are healed completely. No character development whatsoever.

I think Villain RP is good as it stands but people need to crack down on meta and powergaming. On both sides of the RP, that is.

Merry pins a map of Tahn to the board which held the notice, hammering a nail in exactly where the village was. ((X:2569 Z:520))

"HALFLING UNITEEEHHHHH!!!!!!" Shouts Merridolph, running around the village as he marked the sites of homes, taverns, farms, and storage burrows.

Raugrimm grunts, "Lat should nub be raizin' an Uruk's kidz fer 'em. Even if mi waz dead me wouldn'' let a ztowt raize me kubz. Orcizh orphanz are well taken care uf, leave dem alone."

Shamanism exists in real life, and Canonism's god is called 'god'. Also, the farfolk religion isn't directly called islam. Not to mention, Allah just means 'God' in one of those middle eastern languages. Its like saying Canonists can't call The Creator 'God' because God is part of a real religion...
