Gender: Male Location: Somewhere in distant future playin'
Well I want to play it too Im into LOTR books. I finished them just yesterday (fellowship- return of the king). I know some info of middle earth but, I don't know if I'll play a good charcter :P
SEINOST:
- Not actually titled; married onto the council.
- Highly thought of by Gorlim, and others apparently
- Has a remarkable collection of artwork
- seems patriotic to Arthedain
- has never served in the army; has no ambition to lead an army
- thinks anyone seeking to lead armies should not be allowed to in case they are too aggressive
- Knows Farael wants to control armies, but concedes he would not seek to invade Angmar, which Seinost takes as a good thing.
- thinks several other lords want the job
- Lord Annphor is a friend of the Chamberlain
- Morsire is friend to the young prince
- Annuneryn is very young
- will not be taking part in the tournament, but will be a spectator.
Questions to consider - how did someone so... passive... end up on the ruling council when he was from a nondescript small landowning family?
-Exactly WHY is he so highly thought of? What are his particular strengths?
I'm not discounting him
- he was very anti-invasion of Rhudaur
- not a fighter
- comes from a 'lesser' family, so perhaps has inferiority complex which Witch King could tap into
- nice collection of artwork - perhaps evidence of a separate income?
Obviously, I'm not saying its him either! But, a 'definitely maybe'.
You can add to Farael`s info that his not Dunadan.
Halatir`s ambition certainly seems suspicious. He may be the type to do something stupid to get the glory he wants. He is likely the foremost among Hawks, right? We should see about Morsire as well.
Concerning Seinost, it seems he is respected for his wisdom, he appears to be rather likeable. Likely to be a good administrator, and seems to have good relations with common folk.

Well, Morsire doesn`t seem to like elves. Fact that Pallidan didn`t use proper term with refering to Prince(though he seemed to be respectful) but it doesn`t excuse Morsire being so hostile. He is not dealing with his subject here.
Frankly, a Noldor is entitled to not feel like some Dunedain`s Prince inferior, I think.

Sauron to Ar-Pharazôn
Well, Palidan is in that person's country, Elendur has a right to position that even the Elves recognise, and is a direct descendant of the Dunedain (or even more precisely, Numenorean) King that once saved the Elves, Noldor or otherwise. 'some' Dunadain Prince is an odd term. They are incredibly rare. Much rarer than some wondering Noldor.
Like I said to tpt in private, you CAN play your Noldor haughty enough as to not care about that. It's not absurd for a Noldor to be like that. But it would be staggeringly unhelpful. There is a difference between feeling inferior and showing respect.

Guys, we have no grounds to throw baseless accusations against Lords, like Anglomir just did against Annumeryn! Why do you think he is likely to be a Traitor. That he is young and not remarkable doesn`t matter as he simply inherited his title!

Morsire certainly doesn`t like elves, I bet he isn`t keen on outsiders in general. What do we have on him from the previous episodes? He had some argument with Rex`s character, right?

Sauron to Ar-Pharazôn
- Young, and arrogant
- Thinks the current situation is more hysteria than actual threat
- Thinks very lowly of Farael as he doesn't have pure Dunedain blood
- BIG skeleton in his closet in regard to his father - Gorlim winced when I mentioned it and got very defensive.
An interesting quote,
"As you yourself are well aware, of course, Dunadain are the leaders of Men. Farael's almost a commoner. My father would have none of it!" He shrugs and seems to think about something. "Maybe he should get one of them after all though... ahh, who knows?"
Well now, this is a general vibe that has been slowly bubbling around.
Basically, the entirity of the Arnorian nobility consider the Gondorian Dunedain to be impure, mostly as a result of the Kin Strife. The purity of the Arnorian line is shown in their dark hair and similar looks throughout and is in many ways a laudable thing, but its darker side is shown in the prejudice against Farael.

- quite friendly, cheerful
- Was with Gorlim at the original ambush, which puts him in the 'unlikely' category (this is correct, Ush?)
- Thinks Amon Los was attacked from INSIDE Arthedain, but concedes this can't be proven
- States the Council is in debate over the matter.
- Not entering any tournament events
- thinks Annuneryn is going to enter the Tournament, always keen to impress
- Annuneryn's father hated Farael because of his mixed heritage
- Annphor seems to hold similar views about heritage, although seems to get on fine with Farael, and thinks he may be a suitable general for an army
