AE Tolkien Role Playing Game?

Hello there,

i wanted to gauge the interest in a possible RPG to be played in AE? I am designing a small Tolkien-inspired adventure/puzzle game that will probably read more like interactive fiction over a computer board.

So... if you like hamming it up and you want to pretend for a while that you are a knight avenging the honor of a fair maid, let us know so that we can get the game rolling

I think that would be fun, as long as I can be an elven warrior, are we talking LOTR with weapons, armor, and citys like the movie?

I'd wish more expaining but one needs to kill the time... 

Rider,

Okay, I will explain it more. Each person will play a character. Each character has a series of attributes, such as strength, intelligence, speed, etc. Each character can choose to be a fighter, a wizard, a cleric or a thief. (I recommend fighters.) Then, if it strikes your fancy, you can choose to be a jolly dwarf or an joyful elf.

You have a certain amount of health points, and you get to battle against other people. I will roll dice at home to determine outcomes. Then I will write more of the story according to what happened.

I will write out the story, and then you brave knights decide what action you will take. Get in character and ham it up. I will go forward once I get at least two people signed up. Others can join along as the story unfolds.

C.B. I can't tell you too much of the story without giving it away, but you do have the chance to look up for treasures through ruins. Think of it as a little story not found in the books or the movies that yours truly made up And the best thing is that you determine your lines and your actions.

No, this adventure that I wrote, I am finished, doesn't have a city. But if this game works out well, I may be willing to write a story line in an urban setting.

Great! Now all what we need is a confirmed second player Oh, Rider....

Alright! what now? 

My Character is a Noldor Elflord/Knight (If I can be a knight), My name is Gildor Estelgalad. And can I have a barded battle trained elven steed, a lance, a long sword and dagger/elven knives/throwing knives, and a sheild, and a bow?, one more thing can our weapons be magical?, you know, glows blue when orcs are near? and what time period is the game set in? and how many health, strength, intelligence, speed, etc. points are we allowed?

I wanna join!

My character is woodsmen hunter, equipped only with a bow and a dagger. With many years of practice hunting wild game, I am a great archer. I have a scent hound perhaps?

Alright. Sounds great.

Well. Let's say my name is 'Lord Hoth'... Human? Mage? /UNLIMITED POWER/

Or I may be the Platypus also...
