'At the Sign of the Forlaw Feasting Hall' (Every Friday; 2:00 & 7:00 PM)

in

For the last Friday of every month, Roleplayers of Laurelin allows its members to choose a location to relocate our 'At the Sign of the Prancing Pony' event series. As this is the last Friday of the week, today's 'At the Sign of...' event series will be held at the Forlaw Feasting Hall as decided by Roleplayers of Laurelin's community! 
 

This week's (December 27, 2024) hook: 

A fey and fierce winter has come to Rohan…. In the town of Forlaw, folk gather at the feasting hall for food, shelter, and warmth. Many of these are women, children, and crofters and farmers from outlying lands, while others are travelers from near and distant lands; the passes through Wildermore are greatly favoured by wanderers that seek to cross either side of the Entwade. 

Though the hall has been brimful of first-rate yarns and merry mead, moods have begun to dim: Forlaw’s provisions have dwindled and its people begin to hunger. Despite this, no man in Forlaw will brave the outdoors for fear of the cold and what lurks there: mountain-orcs astride wolves and rumours of a wandering and wild wraith, who leaves both orc and Man alike mangled, riven, and dead, with little to foretell his coming but the blowing of some wan, weird horn. Forlaw wonders whether it will last the winter…. 

Date:
December 27th, 2024
Time:
2:00 PM (for EU players) and 7:00 PM (for NA players)
Location:
Feasting Hall, Forlaw, Wildermore, Rohan [39.3S, 60.8W]

What, Where, and When

‘At the Sign of the Prancing Pony’ is a weekly story-based roleplay event series held every Friday at 2:00 and 7:00 PM server-time which seeks to bring the community together under the roof of LOTRO’s Prancing Pony, with the event being relocated to an inn or tavern of the Roleplayers of Laurelin's Discord server’s community’s choice on the last Friday of every month.

Each event will include a unique story “hook”, and will be broken into two sessions or timeslots: an earlier session for EU players will begin at 2:00 PM server-time and a later session for NA players will begin at 7:00 PM server-time. It is possible and even likely that these sessions will overlap with each other!

Please note that these events will not feature a DM: you are free to run with the weekly hook as you choose, and to come as early or as late as you’d like.

Why

While roleplay in the Prancing Pony is nothing new, the intention of this event is to offer: 1) disparate members of the RP community a single time and place for RP, 2) new or inexperienced RPers a chance to RP and connect with other RPers, and 3) a launchpad for other adventures; consider using this event as a “lobby” for RP—maybe you can stop by the Pony to find a Ranger who will join you on a quest to banish brigands from your farm, a Dwarf-broker to clear your debts, or adventurers to join you on a treasure-hunt. Use this event as a means to develop your own stories! 
 

How 

Simply visit the Prancing Pony and start RPing! All roleplayers who attend this event and join the Roleplayers of Laurelin Discord server will get a chance at the ‘At the Sign of the Prancing Pony’ 150 gold giveaway, drawn every month!
