Gather round, all, and let us enjoy some of the finer things in life!
The Finer Things in Life is an opportunity for the Windfola RP community to get together and share in some of the finer things in life; namely the drinking of ales, the smoking of pipeweed, and the singing of song! Stories are often told as well as poetry. If you have some you'd like to share, come on by!
This event is welcome to pretty much anyone who has any inkling of desire to role-play. So even if you have never RP'd before, please come by! We'd love to have you and the more the merrier.

Ground Rules
Stay in the Lore -- We don't expect you to take a class on Tolkien. However, this is a game in which the lore is deep and well studied. Please be respectful of those that take the time to craft their characters inside the lore. If you are not 100% sure that what you are about to say happened within the storyline, don't say it. Check the lorebook page (Link Below) to find the resources you may need to sort things out.
Metagaming is a No-No -- This means that your character doesn't necessarily know everything that you, as a player, know. No one is supposed to know about the Ring. If you have gone through the Epic Books, your character knows the Fellowship has left and is on an important errand, but they don't know what exactly is going on.
In Character actions have In Character consequences -- If you play your character as a fool who runs around screaming, don't all of a sudden expect everyone to take you seriously when you want everyone to come rally to your cause.
Roleplaying is a Team Activity -- Treat others as you would like to be treated. And remember, we all have to work together to make RP fun.
Separation of Game Mechanics and Character Knowledge -- Your character in Middle-earth would not know what DPS, fellowship maneuvers, or stats are. So don't bring it up while RPing! Remember, the developers of the game have to make some concessions to gameplay because this is, after all, a video game.
