#mirenilde

Day 1. Wounded

@enjolras-in-valinor's dnd OC, Mirenildë, in the wilderness during Bragollach

Prompts under the cut!

my character from the campaign. Mirenilde, known to her friends as Mirya. she has made many mistakes in her life, one of which got her banished from Valinor. you can probably guess what that was. still, she keeps going. Feanorians do not give up easily.

Our first session was January 13th, 2024. We meet once a month, in three groups. Each session is ran again with each group, and through magic and suspension of belief, we make it work quite well.

We have a collection on ao3 here!

We use components of 5e and Adventures in Middle Earth (a 5e branch). Now, onto the story!

It is 2986, and 9 adventurers have recived letters froma mysterious "G", asking to meet in Bree in the Prancing Pony to investigate some rumors in the North, near the ruins of Fornost. The adventurers convence, but the mysterious G can no longer come, and asks them to please still investigate, then to meet him in Rivendell to tell him what they found.

They investigate, and report to Rivendell, to the one and only Gandalf. They tell him of what they found, a group of orcs, wargs, and some nameless thing. And he tells them that it was a test, to see if they were ready... to time travel to the first age, to help the peoples there and save who they can. As they meet new friends in Rivendell, time travel back to First Age 456 and find their footing, the party grows to 15 adventurers.

They soon meet a hero of the first age, and begin their journey into the chaos and bedlam of Beleriand.

Now, we meet our party.
