Hair Dye, Cloning and General Epic Chaoticness

Welcome to the Chaotic RP of TTF! This is a fun, spontaneous, lighthearted, and most importantly, chaotic RP which is available to anyone who wishes to join. While our primary goal is to have fun, we have a few rules in order to keep some method to the madness.
  • Firstly, each character belongs to their respective TTF user. In other words, you can't write for a character if someone else has claimed that character. If you're new to the thread, please ask the group which characters are available before you claim one.
  • Even though this thread is chaotic and spontaneous, we do have a storyline going. If you're new to the thread, please read the most recent few pages, or more, so you're caught up on what's going on.
  • Make sure to interact with other people's characters. Don't just go off and write your own thing without interacting with anybody.
  • Don't completely ignore or change the storyline.
  • At the same time, please be flexible if someone introduces a new turn of the plot. This is not a carefully planned RP, and it needs to have flexibility for any chaotic new thing someone comes up with (within reason-- it does need to connect to the main story at least loosely).
  • If you are writing for multiple characters, use a script format to indicate which character is speaking. Use asterisks* to denote action. For example:
    • Maitimo: *tries to shake Celeraccoon off his arm* STOP BITING ME, TYELKO!
  • Try to keep spam to a minimum. I would define "spamming" in this thread as writing more than a page over the course of a few hours. (This can be a tough one to follow, I know.) But spamming makes it hard for other people to keep up.
  • At the same time, if you're going to be absent for an extended period of time, we recommend writing your character out temporarily (such as having them disappear or go somewhere) so other people can continue while you're gone.
That's all I can think of for now. If you have any questions or need any help, please feel free to ask!

... even Tyelko is not allowed to sweet talk me like that, thank you very much. If Tyelko can deal with them, so can I. You say like it's hard.🙄
M: Jokes aside, they are quite dangerous in large numbers . . . I've known many desperate times when fighting hoards of them. They may be simple, but they aren't to be underestimated.

Indeed. They're better known for their strength than their, uh, "cleverness." Which even though they don't possess much of it, they're still smart enough to know I'm a death sentence for them.

(Do you think I could join in on the craziness? I'm new here.)
(Sure! What character(s) are you interested in?)
 
(Lindiel is a huntress, so she would be quite capable of protecting herself, hence her reaction.)
(I assumed that, but it's Maglor's nature to protect everyone and keep them from harm--even if they could realistically handle it. He's not underestimating her because he thinks less of her, but because he hates the thought of people being in harms way)

*He nods in agreement*

(Hello!)

(Well, Orcs can be a danger to even the most skilled fighters, especially when they're in large numbers as Maglor said.)

Since most of the characters are Finwians, I could do another one of them. Which ones are people not currently playing?
(Let's see. Amras is free, and even though I occasionally write Caranthir, I'm not super attached to him, so he's open. The main thing is in this universe, he's a tax accountant. Argon and Turgon are available, as are all the Arafinwians except Finrod.)

(Oh, and Fingolfin and Finarfin and Finwë themselves are all available. We don't have a consistent time period or setting, so it doesn't matter if a character is technically dead.)
 
(I'll try playing Amras.)
*Amras enters the room slowly, then stops short as he takes in everything, before heading over to Maedhros*
"Matimo, what's happening? Am I seeing double? Why is there another you?"
Good to see you, little bro! *hugs him*

Uh, yeah, for some reason, a bunch of our alternate universe selves showed up. You should be careful around my younger alternate universe self, because apparently all you guys tried to kill him in his world.

*Young Maitimo shrinks away in fear, since Amras was among those who tried to kill him in that universe.* Stay away from me!!

Maglor: Amras! It's so good to see you! *he moves over and gives him a quick side hug* (OOC: Maglor just got back from a trip and so hasn't seen anyone in a while)
Maglor *gently putting a hand on YM's shoulder*: It's alright, I promise.
*He hated to see his brother so afraid, even if it was some other version of him--it was still his Neylo*
 
*Young Maitimo shrinks away in fear, since Amras was among those who tried to kill him in that universe.* Stay away from me!!
*Laurinalótë rubs his hair with her leaves, using her soothing effects to aid Maglor in calming YM down.* There there, Maitimo the Younger.

*Meanwhile, Yavanna and Aulë are discussing the source of the Pokémon music.*

Aulë: I do not believe this is what will be accompanying the wedding program...

Yavanna: And sure am I you had nothing to do with such.

Aulë: I can't help being caught in a memory of the Battle of the Powers. *Appears reminiscing.* Tulkas-Smash was super effective.
 
*hugs him back and approaches Young Matimo with caution*
Amras: I don't mean to scare you. Whatever may have happened in your world, I can promise you, I would never do anything to harm one of my brothers. Since a version of me tried to harm you, you probably won't believe me, but I'm sure this Maedhros can vouch for me. I'm truly sorry for what's happened to you.
*returns the hug*
Amras: It's good to see you too, Maglor!

*Young Maitimo instinctively recoils, but as Laurinalotë's magic works on him, he relaxes a little, and doesn't flinch away from Maglor's touch. Thinking logically, he knows these aren't really his brothers, and they are from a different universe. But he still can't afford to trust them, not knowing if they are violent.*

*YM, quietly:* I wish I could trust you, Telvo. But another version of you didn't just try to harm me; he actually did. He slashed me across the chest with a knife.

*Older Maitimo shakes his head, scarcely able to believe his brothers capable of such treachery in any universe. But he nods in agreement with Amras.* He's right, though. I can vouch for him, having known him his whole life. In this universe, our bonds as a family are strong, and neither Telvo nor any of us would never do anything to hurt you.

*Amras stops, stunned. At first, he can't believe he, or another him, would try to hurt his older brother. But one look in YM"s eyes is enough to know he's telling the truth. Amras looks at him with sad eyes, horrified at what he must have been through.* Alright, I understand if you don't trust me, then. I assure you I'm different in this world, though.
