Great to have you in the game Aegor! Welcome...I am glad to have another Elf.

V, regarding Eye of Mordor rules, here is someone who suggested an alternative set for Eye Awareness. The nice thing about these rules is that it doesn't penalize a bigger group (making Revelation Episodes likely to occur often with 5+ PCs), but it still keeps them simple: http://forums.cubicle7.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=4036

Thank you Blubbo!

Call me on any non-Elflike behavior and I will edit posts and avoid that in the future. Reading up on Noldor in the wiki now.

Sure thing.

If you want to be really inspired, then read this:

After I read it, Finrod became my favorite of all the Noldor.

Just a few comments on Hartley's behavior with the unconscious man. I think Hartley is the kind of person who cannot ignore suffering and will do what he can to help, even at the cost of putting himself in peril. Also, having worked at the Prancing Pony, he would have dealt with the aftermath of quite a few bar fights. He also thinks that if they can help the man, they might gain a friend, or at least an ally in Tharbad. Of course the man may be a worthless sot and be of no use to himself or the group, but that wouldn't change Hartley's motivation for helping.

I thought it was the right response from Hartly (and honestly I put it there to test the party) :)

Didn't figure you'd throw a dying man in front of us for no good reason. ;)

I think everyone reacted appropriately to the situation given their character. Hartley helping, Aravule annoyed and focused, Halleth following his captain, the Elves watchful. The High Elf reminiscing... :-)

It is a nice group, too bad you are all about to get eaten by Smaug.
