'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

Lady Cordir *bow*<br />
M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
<br />
It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />

Lord Tynian *bow*<br />
Lady Cordir *bow*<br />
M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
(the OOC part)<br />
well, as Lord Tynian once commented .. <br />
"..I thought you would never get there (eff 50).."<br />
and at times I wondered as well *grin*<br />
<br />
a little ooc background on me...<br />
<br />
been playing TFC since the middle of 1995 as Boromir<br />
<br />
My first char was a warrior .. dumb as a stump :)<br />
but did have a hugely massive +dam of +12 and for 1.x .. that was good<br />
<br />
Since then I have had 4 primary characters and a host of others <br />
that sort of fell by the wayside<br />
<br />
I have played good, evil, neutral and ua..<br />
I have been pked and pked others<br />
<br />
for those that wonder about the evil... <br />
Arch-Lich .. please tell Orpik .. thanks again for the xp help<br />
in the trading post *grin*<br />
<br />
warrior, thief, mage, ranger, shaman, cleric have all been<br />
endured/experienced/enjoyed<br />
<br />
humans, dwarfs, ogres (holds nose), giants, elves, gnomes, half-elves, hobbits have all had their chance to entice and entreat<br />
<br />
I was there when the Arch-Lich came into being<br />
and when ICP got their due :)<br />
<br />
enjoyed the last melee of 2.x *grin*<br />
<br />
and finished leveling Boromir in 3.x<br />
<br />
be sure to ask Lord Foolkiller about theme day *grin*<br />
<br />
and ask Lady Cordir about my Wonderful jokes on FT<br />
<br />
I have played on other muds but not stayed away long<br />
and have been immortal in other realms but not an FLI :)<br />
(didnt hang around enough..)<br />

<br />
== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />
<br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

<b>Excerpt from the official City History:1st day, the Month of Building, Year 1</b><br><br />
<br><i>"... was a great party!! Everyone from the Duke on down to the youngest dwarf was in attendance! Food and drink and dancing and laughing and songs and stories to fill the whole world!! It was glorious!! We partied late into the night celebrating our last night on these shores and the start of the great Migration on the morrow.<br>Stupid Gnome watchkeeper!!! Claimed he tried to wake us but couldn't ..... All of the times to trust a gnome and they fail again!!!! Never Never Never ever trust a gnome! Couldn't wake us; yeah next time dont be drunk and pass out! Doubt he will be found again.<br>The despair that flooded our people; arriving at the dock only to find the ships had departed without us. To never feel the warmth of the smiles of the rest of our families now across the vast sea nor the shouts of our brothers in victory; truly devastating. The Duke bid us to light torches and bonfires to signal the few ships still faintly visible on the horizon but to no avail. Our best efforts came to nought and with it, the hopes for our people's journey across the seas to join our brethern. The Duke's shoulders slumped as he realized that having ceded our holdings in Dwarvenhold to the King and Queen and the parting words exchanged, there was no going back.The Duke and others stood staring out at the horizon long after the ships had disappeared. No words were said but no need, their expressions and demeanor making all too clear what they were thinking. The Duke straightened up and turned, facing his people with a determination and drive that has always been his trademark. He started speaking to his people, the dwarfs of his household and all others in the group standing on the shore. His voice easily carried over the sound of the waves hitting the shore and cries of the seabirds. I can not repeat his words here for like all other dwarves, I was so taken by his speech it was all I could do to write these few words to mark the moment.All that I have of the Duke's speech are the emotions driven by empassioned words lifting the spirits of his people and strengthening their resolve. <br><br> </i><i>"..We will surivive this this calamity! No Dwarf has ever failed at what was their goal and we will not be the first. Our scouts have found a cavern, long buried and undisturbed which they have claimed in the name of Mider! And that will be ours, our City of Mider!! The scouts have reported finding traces of mithril and iron and signs of raw gems so we will be a true dwarven hold with wealth and mithril to keep us safe and powerful! We have no need of those fat gnome-like slugs living in the squalid remnants of the Citadel's outpost. We will make our city greater than that ever will be! .."</i><br><BR> <i>The shouts and cheers that greeted the Duke's speech shook the earth and rocked the dock on which the Duke stood. Once the cheering and shouts subsided, the Duke and his household hoisted their packs and left the dock. As one, the people turned and followed the Duke down the road to our new home, what is soon to be the City of Mider!<br>We have reached the entrance after a short journey and all looks dark within. The Duke and his party have torches lit and are descending into ...."</i><br><br />

'''Excerpt from the official City History: 6th day, the Month of reflections, Year 24'''<br><br />
<i> "... news came today of a city rising on the west bank of the river just west and north of our city. The news is not good for the builders have enslaved Giants to build their city. The slaves toil at their labor and many perish. Scouts reported seeing groups of slaves carrying the dead away to another part of the construction site. Scouts have also reported strange magics and flashes and bright lights within the city limits. The Duke (and I agree wholeheartedly) has decided to not risk any contact with the citizens of that city.So by decree, we will now keep the gates of Mider closed letting no light or sound escape forth lest we be discovered by them. The Duke has also decreed that guards will now roam the city as a night watch keeping the citizens save. Rumor has it that a few rebels have threatened the Duke and he seeks to curtail if not extinguish them. The Duke has increased the number of guards within the City and the mines since ....."</i><br><br />

'''Excerpt from the official City History:14th day, the Month of Arrival, Year 51'''<br><br />
<i>"...Today is the where I bring the end to my lifelong duty of recording the history of my City of Mider and the Duke. Over 51 years of digging and building and mining has brought us the greatest city in the world! The mines prosper and grow while trade has brought us wealth and happiness. Alas, I will not be remembering these things for our descendants any longer. It has been months in coming but it is time. My eyes struggle to see the page clearly even in the brightest light, my hands tremble and shake despite my efforts to qwell them. My assistant these last 5 years will be holding the quill and scribing the parchment with the news and events of my City. My liege, the Duke is relinguishing the throne to his eldest son tomorrow, day 15. And tomorrow is the first day of a new historian recording the last words of the Duke and the first words of the Duke here in Mider..... assistants name and he will do a fine job. I have cleared my office of what will be my memories for the years to follow. Yet these young fellows bring gifts and mementos from the past for me to also take with. I take all of these and I will have no place to live! A noisy, boisterous throng approaches my office and I wonder at the cause ... I should have known ... Friends and family have turned out for what looks to be a great party!!I must close with these final words... <br>The City, home of true dwarves everwhere!<br>My Liege, the Duke, true leader of all Dwarves!!<br>GlanniKil<br></i><br><br />

<b>Excerpt from the official City History:1st day, the Month of Building, Year 1</b><br><br />
<br><i>"... was a great party!! Everyone from the Duke on down to the youngest dwarf was in attendance! Food and drink and dancing and laughing and songs and stories to fill the whole world!! It was glorious!! We partied late into the night celebrating our last night on these shores and the start of the great Migration on the morrow.<br>Stupid Gnome watchkeeper!!! Claimed he tried to wake us but couldn't ..... All of the times to trust a gnome and they fail again!!!! Never Never Never ever trust a gnome! Couldn't wake us; yeah next time dont be drunk and pass out! Doubt he will be found again.<br>The despair that flooded our people; arriving at the dock only to find the ships had departed without us. To never feel the warmth of the smiles of the rest of our families now across the vast sea nor the shouts of our brothers in victory; truly devastating. The Duke bid us to light torches and bonfires to signal the few ships still faintly visible on the horizon but to no avail. Our best efforts came to nought and with it, the hopes for our people's journey across the seas to join our brethern. The Duke's shoulders slumped as he realized that having ceded our holdings in Dwarvenhold to the King and Queen and the parting words exchanged, there was no going back.The Duke and others stood staring out at the horizon long after the ships had disappeared. No words were said but no need, their expressions and demeanor making all too clear what they were thinking. The Duke straightened up and turned, facing his people with a determination and drive that has always been his trademark. He started speaking to his people, the dwarfs of his household and all others in the group standing on the shore. His voice easily carried over the sound of the waves hitting the shore and cries of the seabirds. I can not repeat his words here for like all other dwarves, I was so taken by his speech it was all I could do to write these few words to mark the moment.All that I have of the Duke's speech are the emotions driven by empassioned words lifting the spirits of his people and strengthening their resolve. <br> </i><i>"..We will surivive this this calamity! No Dwarf has ever failed at what was their goal and we will not be the first. Our scouts have found a cavern, long buried and undisturbed which they have claimed in the name of Mider! And that will be ours, our City of Mider!! The scouts have reported finding traces of mithril and iron and signs of raw gems so we will be a true dwarven hold with wealth and mithril to keep us safe and powerful! We have no need of those fat gnome-like slugs living in the squalid remnants of the Citadel's outpost. We will make our city greater than that ever will be! .."</i><br> <i>The shouts and cheers that greeted the Duke's speech shook the earth and rocked the dock on which the Duke stood. Once the cheering and shouts subsided, the Duke and his household hoisted their packs and left the dock.

<i>"...Today is the where I bring the end to my lifelong duty of recording the history of my City of Mider and the Duke. Over 51 years of digging and building and mining has brought us the greatest city in the world! The mines prosper and grow while trade has brought us wealth and happiness. Alas, I will not be remembering these things for our descendants any longer. It has been months in coming but it is time.

And tomorrow is the first day of a new historian recording the last words of the Duke and the first words of the Duke here in Mider..... assistants name and he will do a fine job. I have cleared my office of what will be my memories for the years to follow. Yet these young fellows bring gifts and mementos from the past for me to also take with. I take all of these and I will have no place to live! A noisy, boisterous throng approaches my office and I wonder at the cause ... I should have known ...

<b>Excerpt from the official City History:1st day, the Month of Building, Year 1</b><br><br />
<br><i>"... was a great party!! Everyone from the Duke on down to the youngest dwarf was in attendance! Food and drink and dancing and laughing and songs and stories to fill the whole world!! It was glorious!! We partied late into the night celebrating our last night on these shores and the start of the great Migration on the morrow.<br>Stupid Gnome watchkeeper!!! Claimed he tried to wake us but couldn't ..... All of the times to trust a gnome and they fail again!!!! Never Never Never ever trust a gnome! Couldn't wake us; yeah next time dont be drunk and pass out! Doubt he will be found again.<br>The despair that flooded our people; arriving at the dock only to find the ships had departed without us. To never feel the warmth of the smiles of the rest of our families now across the vast sea nor the shouts of our brothers in victory; truly devastating. The Duke bid us to light torches and bonfires to signal the few ships still faintly visible on the horizon but to no avail. Our best efforts came to nought and with it, the hopes for our people's journey across the seas to join our brethern. The Duke's shoulders slumped as he realized that having ceded our holdings in Dwarvenhold to the King and Queen and the parting words exchanged, there was no going back.The Duke and others stood staring out at the horizon long after the ships had disappeared. No words were said but no need, their expressions and demeanor making all too clear what they were thinking. The Duke straightened up and turned, facing his people with a determination and drive that has always been his trademark. He started speaking to his people, the dwarfs of his household and all others in the group standing on the shore. His voice easily carried over the sound of the waves hitting the shore and cries of the seabirds. I can not repeat his words here for like all other dwarves, I was so taken by his speech it was all I could do to write these few words to mark the moment.All that I have of the Duke's speech are the emotions driven by empassioned words lifting the spirits of his people and strengthening their resolve. <br> </i><i>"..We will surivive this this calamity! No Dwarf has ever failed at what was their goal and we will not be the first. Our scouts have found a cavern, long buried and undisturbed which they have claimed in the name of Mider! And that will be ours, our City of Mider!! The scouts have reported finding traces of mithril and iron and signs of raw gems so we will be a true dwarven hold with wealth and mithril to keep us safe and powerful! We have no need of those fat gnome-like slugs living in the squalid remnants of the Citadel's outpost. We will make our city greater than that ever will be! .."</i><br> <i>The shouts and cheers that greeted the Duke's speech shook the earth and rocked the dock on which the Duke stood. Once the cheering and shouts subsided, the Duke and his household hoisted their packs and left the dock. As one, the people turned and followed the Duke down the road to our new home, what is soon to be the City of Mider!<br>We have reached the entrance after a short journey and all looks dark within.

The slaves toil at their labor and many perish. Scouts reported seeing groups of slaves carrying the dead away to another part of the construction site. Scouts have also reported strange magics and flashes and bright lights within the city limits. The Duke (and I agree wholeheartedly) has decided to not risk any contact with the citizens of that city.So by decree, we will now keep the gates of Mider closed letting no light or sound escape forth lest we be discovered by them.

<i>"...Today is the where I bring the end to my lifelong duty of recording the history of my City of Mider and the Duke. Over 51 years of digging and building and mining has brought us the greatest city in the world! The mines prosper and grow while trade has brought us wealth and happiness. Alas, I will not be remembering these things for our descendants any longer. It has been months in coming but it is time. My eyes struggle to see the page clearly even in the brightest light, my hands tremble and shake despite my efforts to qwell them. My assistant these last 5 years will be holding the quill and scribing the parchment with the news and events of my City. My liege, the Duke is relinguishing the throne to his eldest son tomorrow, day 15. And tomorrow is the first day of a new historian recording the last words of the Duke and the first words of the Duke here in Mider..... assistants name and he will do a fine job. I have cleared my office of what will be my memories for the years to follow. Yet these young fellows bring gifts and mementos from the past for me to also take with. I take all of these and I will have no place to live! A noisy, boisterous throng approaches my office and I wonder at the cause ... I should have known ...

You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

Lord Tynian *bow*<br />
Lady Cordir *bow*<br />
M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
<br />
It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />

(the OOC part)<br />
well, as Lord Tynian once commented .. <br />
"..I thought you would never get there (eff 50).."<br />
and at times I wondered as well *grin*<br />
<br />
a little ooc background on me...<br />
<br />
been playing TFC since the middle of 1995 as Boromir<br />
<br />
My first char was a warrior .. dumb as a stump :)<br />
but did have a hugely massive +dam of +12 and for 1.x .. that was good<br />
<br />
Since then I have had 4 primary characters and a host of others <br />
that sort of fell by the wayside<br />
<br />
I have played good, evil, neutral and ua..<br />
I have been pked and pked others<br />
<br />
for those that wonder about the evil... <br />
Arch-Lich .. please tell Orpik .. thanks again for the xp help<br />
in the trading post *grin*<br />
<br />
warrior, thief, mage, ranger, shaman, cleric have all been<br />
endured/experienced/enjoyed<br />
<br />
humans, dwarfs, ogres (holds nose), giants, elves, gnomes, half-elves, hobbits have all had their chance to entice and entreat<br />
<br />
I was there when the Arch-Lich came into being<br />
and when ICP got their due :)<br />
<br />

</PRE><br />
<br />
== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />
<br />

(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />

'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

<br />
It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />

M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
(the OOC part)<br />
well, as Lord Tynian once commented .. <br />
"..I thought you would never get there (eff 50).."<br />
and at times I wondered as well *grin*<br />
<br />
a little ooc background on me...<br />
<br />
been playing TFC since the middle of 1995 as Boromir<br />
<br />
My first char was a warrior .. dumb as a stump :)<br />
but did have a hugely massive +dam of +12 and for 1.x .. that was good<br />
<br />
Since then I have had 4 primary characters and a host of others <br />
that sort of fell by the wayside<br />
<br />
I have played good, evil, neutral and ua..<br />
I have been pked and pked others<br />
<br />
for those that wonder about the evil... <br />
Arch-Lich .. please tell Orpik .. thanks again for the xp help<br />
in the trading post *grin*<br />
<br />
warrior, thief, mage, ranger, shaman, cleric have all been<br />
endured/experienced/enjoyed<br />
<br />
humans, dwarfs, ogres (holds nose), giants, elves, gnomes, half-elves, hobbits have all had their chance to entice and entreat<br />
<br />
I was there when the Arch-Lich came into being<br />
and when ICP got their due :)<br />
<br />
enjoyed the last melee of 2.x *grin*<br />
<br />
and finished leveling Boromir in 3.x<br />
<br />
be sure to ask Lord Foolkiller about theme day *grin*<br />
<br />
and ask Lady Cordir about my Wonderful jokes on FT<br />
<br />
I have played on other muds but not stayed away long<br />
and have been immortal in other realms but not an FLI :)<br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

== Mortal Restrings: ==<br />
(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

<br />
It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />

M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
(the OOC part)<br />
well, as Lord Tynian once commented .. <br />
"..I thought you would never get there (eff 50).."<br />
and at times I wondered as well *grin*<br />
<br />
a little ooc background on me...<br />
<br />
been playing TFC since the middle of 1995 as Boromir<br />
<br />
My first char was a warrior .. dumb as a stump :)<br />
but did have a hugely massive +dam of +12 and for 1.x .. that was good<br />
<br />
Since then I have had 4 primary characters and a host of others <br />
that sort of fell by the wayside<br />
<br />
I have played good, evil, neutral and ua..<br />
I have been pked and pked others<br />
<br />
for those that wonder about the evil... <br />
Arch-Lich .. please tell Orpik .. thanks again for the xp help<br />
in the trading post *grin*<br />
<br />
warrior, thief, mage, ranger, shaman, cleric have all been<br />
endured/experienced/enjoyed<br />
<br />
humans, dwarfs, ogres (holds nose), giants, elves, gnomes, half-elves, hobbits have all had their chance to entice and entreat<br />
<br />
I was there when the Arch-Lich came into being<br />
and when ICP got their due :)<br />
<br />
enjoyed the last melee of 2.x *grin*<br />
<br />
and finished leveling Boromir in 3.x<br />
<br />
be sure to ask Lord Foolkiller about theme day *grin*<br />
<br />
and ask Lady Cordir about my Wonderful jokes on FT<br />
<br />
I have played on other muds but not stayed away long<br />
and have been immortal in other realms but not an FLI :)<br />
(didnt hang around enough..)<br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

== Mortal Restrings: ==<br />
(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

Lord Tynian *bow*<br />
Lady Cordir *bow*<br />
M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
<br />
It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />
<br />

Lord Tynian *bow*<br />
Lady Cordir *bow*<br />
M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
(the OOC part)<br />
well, as Lord Tynian once commented .. <br />
"..I thought you would never get there (eff 50).."<br />
and at times I wondered as well *grin*<br />
<br />
a little ooc background on me...<br />
<br />
been playing TFC since the middle of 1995 as Boromir<br />
<br />
My first char was a warrior .. dumb as a stump :)<br />
but did have a hugely massive +dam of +12 and for 1.x .. that was good<br />
<br />
Since then I have had 4 primary characters and a host of others <br />
that sort of fell by the wayside<br />
<br />
I have played good, evil, neutral and ua..<br />
I have been pked and pked others<br />
<br />
for those that wonder about the evil... <br />
Arch-Lich .. please tell Orpik .. thanks again for the xp help<br />
in the trading post *grin*<br />
<br />
warrior, thief, mage, ranger, shaman, cleric have all been<br />
endured/experienced/enjoyed<br />
<br />
humans, dwarfs, ogres (holds nose), giants, elves, gnomes, half-elves, hobbits have all had their chance to entice and entreat<br />
<br />
I was there when the Arch-Lich came into being<br />
and when ICP got their due :)<br />
<br />
enjoyed the last melee of 2.x *grin*<br />
<br />
and finished leveling Boromir in 3.x<br />
<br />
be sure to ask Lord Foolkiller about theme day *grin*<br />
<br />
and ask Lady Cordir about my Wonderful jokes on FT<br />
<br />
I have played on other muds but not stayed away long<br />
and have been immortal in other realms but not an FLI :)<br />
(didnt hang around enough..)<br />
<br />
Boromir aka... well ... others *grin*<br />
</PRE><br />
<br />
== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

<br />
It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />

M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
(the OOC part)<br />
well, as Lord Tynian once commented .. <br />
"..I thought you would never get there (eff 50).."<br />
and at times I wondered as well *grin*<br />
<br />
a little ooc background on me...<br />
<br />
been playing TFC since the middle of 1995 as Boromir<br />
<br />
My first char was a warrior .. dumb as a stump :)<br />
but did have a hugely massive +dam of +12 and for 1.x .. that was good<br />
<br />
Since then I have had 4 primary characters and a host of others <br />
that sort of fell by the wayside<br />
<br />
I have played good, evil, neutral and ua..<br />
I have been pked and pked others<br />
<br />
for those that wonder about the evil... <br />
Arch-Lich .. please tell Orpik .. thanks again for the xp help<br />
in the trading post *grin*<br />
<br />
warrior, thief, mage, ranger, shaman, cleric have all been<br />
endured/experienced/enjoyed<br />
<br />
humans, dwarfs, ogres (holds nose), giants, elves, gnomes, half-elves, hobbits have all had their chance to entice and entreat<br />
<br />
I was there when the Arch-Lich came into being<br />
and when ICP got their due :)<br />
<br />
enjoyed the last melee of 2.x *grin*<br />
<br />
and finished leveling Boromir in 3.x<br />
<br />
be sure to ask Lord Foolkiller about theme day *grin*<br />
<br />
and ask Lady Cordir about my Wonderful jokes on FT<br />
<br />
I have played on other muds but not stayed away long<br />
and have been immortal in other realms but not an FLI :)<br />
(didnt hang around enough..)<br />

<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />
<br />

(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

<br />
It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />

M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
(the OOC part)<br />
well, as Lord Tynian once commented .. <br />
"..I thought you would never get there (eff 50).."<br />
and at times I wondered as well *grin*<br />
<br />
a little ooc background on me...<br />
<br />
been playing TFC since the middle of 1995 as Boromir<br />
<br />
My first char was a warrior .. dumb as a stump :)<br />
but did have a hugely massive +dam of +12 and for 1.x .. that was good<br />
<br />
Since then I have had 4 primary characters and a host of others <br />
that sort of fell by the wayside<br />
<br />
I have played good, evil, neutral and ua..<br />
I have been pked and pked others<br />
<br />
for those that wonder about the evil... <br />
Arch-Lich .. please tell Orpik .. thanks again for the xp help<br />
in the trading post *grin*<br />
<br />
warrior, thief, mage, ranger, shaman, cleric have all been<br />
endured/experienced/enjoyed<br />
<br />
humans, dwarfs, ogres (holds nose), giants, elves, gnomes, half-elves, hobbits have all had their chance to entice and entreat<br />
<br />
I was there when the Arch-Lich came into being<br />
and when ICP got their due :)<br />
<br />
enjoyed the last melee of 2.x *grin*<br />
<br />
and finished leveling Boromir in 3.x<br />
<br />
be sure to ask Lord Foolkiller about theme day *grin*<br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

== Mortal Restrings: ==<br />
(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />

'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

<br />
It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />

Lady Cordir *bow*<br />
M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
(the OOC part)<br />
well, as Lord Tynian once commented .. <br />
"..I thought you would never get there (eff 50).."<br />
and at times I wondered as well *grin*<br />
<br />
a little ooc background on me...<br />
<br />
been playing TFC since the middle of 1995 as Boromir<br />
<br />
My first char was a warrior .. dumb as a stump :)<br />
but did have a hugely massive +dam of +12 and for 1.x .. that was good<br />
<br />
Since then I have had 4 primary characters and a host of others <br />
that sort of fell by the wayside<br />
<br />
I have played good, evil, neutral and ua..<br />
I have been pked and pked others<br />
<br />
for those that wonder about the evil... <br />
Arch-Lich .. please tell Orpik .. thanks again for the xp help<br />
in the trading post *grin*<br />
<br />
warrior, thief, mage, ranger, shaman, cleric have all been<br />
endured/experienced/enjoyed<br />
<br />
humans, dwarfs, ogres (holds nose), giants, elves, gnomes, half-elves, hobbits have all had their chance to entice and entreat<br />
<br />
I was there when the Arch-Lich came into being<br />
and when ICP got their due :)<br />
<br />
enjoyed the last melee of 2.x *grin*<br />
<br />
and finished leveling Boromir in 3.x<br />
<br />
be sure to ask Lord Foolkiller about theme day *grin*<br />
<br />
and ask Lady Cordir about my Wonderful jokes on FT<br />
<br />
I have played on other muds but not stayed away long<br />
and have been immortal in other realms but not an FLI :)<br />
(didnt hang around enough..)<br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

<br />
It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />

M'Lords and M'Ladys *bow*<br />
(the OOC part)<br />
well, as Lord Tynian once commented .. <br />
"..I thought you would never get there (eff 50).."<br />
and at times I wondered as well *grin*<br />
<br />
a little ooc background on me...<br />
<br />
been playing TFC since the middle of 1995 as Boromir<br />
<br />
My first char was a warrior .. dumb as a stump :)<br />
but did have a hugely massive +dam of +12 and for 1.x .. that was good<br />
<br />
Since then I have had 4 primary characters and a host of others <br />
that sort of fell by the wayside<br />
<br />
I have played good, evil, neutral and ua..<br />
I have been pked and pked others<br />
<br />
for those that wonder about the evil... <br />
Arch-Lich .. please tell Orpik .. thanks again for the xp help<br />
in the trading post *grin*<br />
<br />
warrior, thief, mage, ranger, shaman, cleric have all been<br />
endured/experienced/enjoyed<br />
<br />
humans, dwarfs, ogres (holds nose), giants, elves, gnomes, half-elves, hobbits have all had their chance to entice and entreat<br />
<br />
I was there when the Arch-Lich came into being<br />
and when ICP got their due :)<br />
<br />
enjoyed the last melee of 2.x *grin*<br />
<br />
and finished leveling Boromir in 3.x<br />
<br />
be sure to ask Lord Foolkiller about theme day *grin*<br />
<br />
and ask Lady Cordir about my Wonderful jokes on FT<br />
<br />
I have played on other muds but not stayed away long<br />
and have been immortal in other realms but not an FLI :)<br />
(didnt hang around enough..)<br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

== Mortal Restrings: ==<br />
(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

<br />
It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />

and at times I wondered as well *grin*<br />
<br />
a little ooc background on me...<br />
<br />
been playing TFC since the middle of 1995 as Boromir<br />
<br />
My first char was a warrior .. dumb as a stump :)<br />
but did have a hugely massive +dam of +12 and for 1.x .. that was good<br />
<br />
Since then I have had 4 primary characters and a host of others <br />
that sort of fell by the wayside<br />
<br />
I have played good, evil, neutral and ua..<br />
I have been pked and pked others<br />
<br />
for those that wonder about the evil... <br />
Arch-Lich .. please tell Orpik .. thanks again for the xp help<br />
in the trading post *grin*<br />
<br />
warrior, thief, mage, ranger, shaman, cleric have all been<br />
endured/experienced/enjoyed<br />
<br />
humans, dwarfs, ogres (holds nose), giants, elves, gnomes, half-elves, hobbits have all had their chance to entice and entreat<br />
<br />
I was there when the Arch-Lich came into being<br />
and when ICP got their due :)<br />
<br />
enjoyed the last melee of 2.x *grin*<br />
<br />
and finished leveling Boromir in 3.x<br />
<br />
be sure to ask Lord Foolkiller about theme day *grin*<br />
<br />
and ask Lady Cordir about my Wonderful jokes on FT<br />
<br />
I have played on other muds but not stayed away long<br />
and have been immortal in other realms but not an FLI :)<br />
(didnt hang around enough..)<br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />

'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

It has been an eventful year ...<br />
Leveling to Level 30 Thief and Level 30 Mage<br />
Finally reaching that goal of Effective 50 !<br />
<br />
With that accomplishment ...<br />
I found my time to be somewhat empty aside from iding and helping others<br />
lacking a true purpose or personally significant goal<br />
<br />
I have spent much of the last 300 hundred years or so <br />
considering my place in this world and which path to follow<br />
<br />
Which path do I follow .. <br />
the path of the retired Xp'er..time now spent iding for others and idly chatting in the guild<br />
the path that some strive for..to step into immortality.. growing beyond the mortal bounds<br />
<br />
I have spoken with friends and foe alike ...<br />
friends for I value their judgement because of our friendship<br />
foes for I value their judgement because they are worthy opponents<br />
<br />
After due consideration and comtemplation..<br />
<br />
I hereby petition for immortality in this realm.<br />
<br />
My background some ask...<br />
<br />
I started as a young elf in Loth Lorien...growing into my skills and talent<br />
first under my own standard<br />
<br />
Then the standard of Lord Bumblefoot<br />
Lord Bumblefoot taught me the basics of the realm ..to survive and learn and enjoy<br />
<br />
Next was the standard of Lord Foolkiller<br />
Lord Foolkiller taught me the ways of the warrior.. patience .. stealth.. force.. mercy<br />
Under Lord Foolkillers tutelage.. I became an Advisor and Battle Lord ...<br />
<br />
And now the standard of Lady Cordir<br />
Lady Cordir has taught me the ways of the peacemaker.. strength .. endurance .. compassion<br />
Under Lady Cordirs' tutelage .. I became a Taoiseach .. a Councilor<br />
<br />
As I grew in experience and knowledge, I sought to help others with what I had learned so they would not stumble as I did. <br />
Some listened *wry grin*... some did not <br />
<br />
With that being said ..<br />
<br />
I humbly request that my petition be considered and approved.<br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />
<br />

== Mortal Restrings: ==<br />
(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''January 1, 1999:'''<BR><br />
non-descript ..ion<BR><br />
Clumsyfool is in perfect health.<BR><br />
<br />
<br />
'''Date Unknown - Written by [[Cordir]]:'''<BR><br />
Well. That's quite a pair of knees.<BR><br />
Your gaze travels up... and up... and up, until your head cranes back fully. Smiling down at you from a height of over eighteen feet is a smiling giant-kin. He hoists a "mug" that is easily the size of a halfling's rainbarrel, and says, "Greetings! Can I interest you in some Mirth Beer? Its a fine batch, made it myself!"<BR><br />
Eyes sparkling, he looks you over as you do the same. He is unusually large for his race. Then you realize he is also unusually old for his species as well, yet his hair is still dark and his movement quick and strong. His garb shows the affects of age; worn, yet serviceable. Totemic runes glow upon his leather armor, radiating softly with the power of his spirit.<BR><br />
For a moment, the jovial expression slips, and you see a figure of times long since past. "So few remain," he murmurs, then shakes his head. The humor returns, if a bit forced, and again he raises his glass in a toast... "to absent friends."<BR><br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />

of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... <br />
Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful, Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... <br />
Sitting back down in his chair, Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." <br />
Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads and he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " <br />
your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
looking up, you realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and awide<BR><br />
as you turn, Bormir says "ah yes, here it is...I knew I had written this adventure down for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading, closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had failed to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... <br />
you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..."<br />
Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks so You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. <br />
You nod only to think, that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful .. Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... Sitting back down in his chair ... Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. You look closer and you see faint shimmering outlining his chair and Boromir .. you then realise the thief skills are far advanced ... only a Master Thief can eminate in that manner... <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads ,, he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " ... your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
you look up .. and realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and not ones reflection <BR><br />
as you turn, <BR><br />
Bormir "ah yes .. here it is .. .I knew I had written this adventure down .. for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading .. closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had falled to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..." Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks.. You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. You nod .... only to think .. that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

(Potent magic) a wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful .. Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... Sitting back down in his chair ... Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. You look closer and you see faint shimmering outlining his chair and Boromir .. you then realise the thief skills are far advanced ... only a Master Thief can eminate in that manner... <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads ,, he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " ... your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
you look up .. and realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and not ones reflection <BR><br />
as you turn, <BR><br />
Bormir "ah yes .. here it is .. .I knew I had written this adventure down .. for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading .. closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had falled to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..." Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks.. You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. You nod .... only to think .. that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

== Mortal Restrings: ==<br />
A wicked sense of humor.<BR><br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Sword:'''<BR><br />
As sharp as a blade and twice as pointed, Boromir's humor lies in wait here<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful .. Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... Sitting back down in his chair ... Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. You look closer and you see faint shimmering outlining his chair and Boromir .. you then realise the thief skills are far advanced ... only a Master Thief can eminate in that manner... <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads ,, he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " ... your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
you look up .. and realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and not ones reflection <BR><br />
as you turn, <BR><br />
Bormir "ah yes .. here it is .. .I knew I had written this adventure down .. for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading .. closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had falled to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..." Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks.. You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. You nod .... only to think .. that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

== Player Info: ==<br />
Boromir the elf first appeared on TFC back in late May/early June of 1995. He is not my first character but he is the highest level so far. There were 3 characters prior to Boromir and of those 3, 1 faded in late 1994 , 1 faded in late 1997 while the 3rd is still active. There were at least 11 other characters played after Boromir appeared. Of those, only 2 remain active enough to play from time to time. For those of you who might be curious, at 1 point I had an active character in every active following on TFC (late 1990's). <br />
How did I start mudding? I logged into Primenets home page and found a link for a game. So I thought I would try it out and the rest is history! <br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful .. Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... Sitting back down in his chair ... Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. You look closer and you see faint shimmering outlining his chair and Boromir .. you then realise the thief skills are far advanced ... only a Master Thief can eminate in that manner... <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads ,, he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " ... your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
you look up .. and realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and not ones reflection <BR><br />
as you turn, <BR><br />
Bormir "ah yes .. here it is .. .I knew I had written this adventure down .. for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading .. closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had falled to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..." Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks.. You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. You nod .... only to think .. that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />
<br />

(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful .. Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... Sitting back down in his chair ... Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. You look closer and you see faint shimmering outlining his chair and Boromir .. you then realise the thief skills are far advanced ... only a Master Thief can eminate in that manner... <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads ,, he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " ... your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
you look up .. and realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and not ones reflection <BR><br />
as you turn, <BR><br />
Bormir "ah yes .. here it is .. .I knew I had written this adventure down .. for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading .. closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had falled to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..." Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks.. You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. You nod .... only to think .. that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />

(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />

'''Mortal:'''<br />
<PRE>Trust.<br />
You blink, wondering why that particular word leapt to mind when your <br />
eyes met those of the unusually tall elf before you. His posture and<br />
body language are relaxed and open, his hands busy with the repair of<br />
the strap of one of several belt-pouches, not lingering by the swords<br />
sheathed at his back. Pausing in his labors, he brushes back a silver<br />
streaked lock of black hair that escaped the neat thick braid binding<br />
its fellows. The gesture draws your attention to his hands; calloused<br />
and strong, yet with the fine bone structure of his race. A soft glow<br />
builds around the tips of his fingers, forming into a shimmering ball<br />
of purple light. Rolling it nimbly around and between his fingers, he<br />
plays with it much like a juggler. A quick, easy grin flashes across<br />
his angular features, echoed in the blue-green almost hazel eyes that<br />
gaze back at you, catlike.<BR><br />
<br />
He glances back at the ball of light, its violet glow casting shadows<br />
over his handsome face. "Fate chose for me the fine group of people <br />
and the Goddess we all follow. Where my Thread's course lies within <br />
the Great Pattern, only She knows. For now, I am content to wander as <br />
the Three guide." <br />
<br />
He flicks his fingertips, and the ball of light disappears. A moment<br />
later he withdraws it from the depths of your left ear, a wicked grin<br />
curving his lips. With a courtly bow, he presents it to you, but just<br />
as you reach for it, it bursts into thousands of individual sparks of<br />
indigo light which dance over your skin, tickling you.</PRE><br />

== Character History: ==<br />
<I><B>The Early Years!!</B></I><br />
<br />
Welcoming you into his house ... take a seat Boromir says .....<BR> <br />
you look around and dont see a chair ..except for the one that Boromir was using ....<BR><br />
Boromir chuckles then gestures ... <BR><br />
a comfortable-looking chair appears ...you sit down and realize that this has to be the most comfortable chair you have ever sat in .. its perfectly contured to your body ...<BR><br />
as you get settled in .. Boromir settles himself back into his chair <BR><br />
Boromir says " ... well what can I do for you? ..'<BR><br />
"I want to expand my knowledge of Loth Lorien, its residents and thought you might be able to help by relating your life's history.." you respond<BR><br />
"hmnmmmmm ahh... ok..'<BR><br />
Boromir takes a minute to think and starts out by saying " this may be a bit convoluted but I will do the best I can '<BR><br />
He pauses ..then continues ...<BR><br />
"I was born in Loth Lorien just down the branch from the Inn ,,,," he says ...<BR><br />
"my father fought with Lord Boromir of Minas Trith and named me.. his oldest son after him"<BR><br />
Boromir pauses as you jot down some notes ... then continues <BR><br />
"I grew up in a house of joy and merriment .. love and discipline .. chaos and order " <BR><br />
he grins as he stops to let you catch up<BR><br />
"I started out learning the ways and skills of a mage as was my Uncle and then decided to follow the path of my father ...the best ranger in LL" ..Boromir smiles proudly .. <BR><br />
"I took up the study of thieves on a bet from a couple of friends on mine and decided to stick with .." <BR><br />
a slight smile brightens Boromirs' face as he watches you scribble on your pad.. <BR><br />
" Unfortunately .. my parents passed on in a raid by the Orcs when I was but 20 years old ... my father fighting to save my mother ... my mother from her wounds and her sadmess at the death of my father.."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent as he revisits that memory...<BR><br />
"I was away on a trip to Nydia visiting some friends when this happened and returned to find the place empty ...I then sold everything and took to a life of wandering ...'<BR><br />
a long pause ensues as Boromir thinks about what has happened ...<BR><br />
" ... Since that time .... I have wandered thru this Realm .. looking for places yet unseen .. seeking knowledge ...<BR><br />
or as I have said before .. I get lost and then find myself .." <BR><br />
Boromir grins and continues ".. I have journeyed through many places yet always return to Loth Lorien ..more years than I care to remember have passed by .... many travels and discoveries .. yet so much more to do and see " <BR><br />
Boromir sips his drink as you continue to take notes ...<BR><br />
" Not sure what it is your are looking for .... ask questions as you wish .. I'm more than happy to answer "<BR><br />
Boromir finishes with a smile ...<BR><br />
You review your notes and ask .." what are the most vivid menories from your travels? .."<BR><br />
Boromir ponders the questions for a few moments .. then responds .. <BR><br />
"hmm good question ... nothing really stands out .. alot of little things .. nothing of a major importance ..."<BR><br />
Boromir falls silent .. and looks thoughtful ... <BR><br />
You take this moment to look around the room ... trying to get a feel for the Elf whose company you share.....<BR><br />
On the wall you see a broken mace hung over the chest ,,, and you mention that ....<BR><br />
Boromir says "hmmm ..? " and then laughs ....<BR><br />
"oh that " he says ....and grins " that is from the first encounter with a stone golem ... " he chuckles .. <BR><br />
" I had just advanced to skill level 10 mage .. and was feeling rather .... powerful ' <BR><br />
a wry grin <BR><br />
" I decided to wander down to Landru's Keep to check out the golems ... well ... I felt it was time to take the Guard Golems to task" <br />
laughing Boromir continues <BR><br />
" .. instead .. the first blow broke the mace .. followed by the shield and most of the eq I had on ... I barely escaped with my life ..."<BR><br />
Boromir winks <BR><br />
" and came back to reality when I finally got away .." <BR><br />
" the boot hanging next to the mace is from my first portal attempt ... Demon Realm is a tough place for a skill level 15 mage ..level 10 ranger or not " ... " thats all the eq I got out with .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs and says " ... the other boot minus the foot that filled it ...along with the other itens I had with me .. are still there I guess and I hope the demon that has them ..well .. hope he gets little use from them " he finishes ... <BR><br />
You chuckle as you flip to the next page of your journal ... <BR><br />
"what about the those three books on the table over there? " pointing to the table next to the door ...<BR><br />
Your host responds " the books? " ..."those are journals I keep whenever I think about it of the Lord or Lady I swear allegiance to .." <br />
Boromir states <BR><br />
" the dustiest book is from Lord Bumblefoots time .. he left this Realm unexspectedly and never returned..." ..a sad expression frames Boromirs' face as he looks to the second book ..<BR><br />
"the second is of Lord Foolkiller ... he has also departed this Realm .. I find his departure more painfiul than that of Lord Bumblefoots' .." ... <BR><br />
You notice that the third book is brand new and has but a few entries ... Boromir notices your expression ...<BR><br />
"the third book is of Lady Cordirs time ... she has graciously welcomed Tyrall and I into her following ... to join or leave as we will ... "<BR><br />
You say ..." join or leave as you will? " <BR><br />
"yes .. join or leave .... speaking for myelf .. I am doing what I can to complete the process of joining '..<BR><br />
You nod slowly as you finish filling another page ... <BR><br />
as you look up.... <BR><br />
you see Boromir has a look of intentness and a degree of distraction....<BR><br />
you wait patiently and ask as Boromirs' attention returnds to you ... <BR><br />
".. dreaming? " <BR><br />
Boromir shakes his head " no.. just responding to a tell from an old friend ...we're meeting later for a few beers and swapping of stories ... " <BR><br />
" I was just thinking about your question .. I have few accomplishemnts of note .. other than surviving years in the field and forest ... I was honored by Lord Foolkiller by being appointed as a Battle Lord and Advisor ...<BR><br />
altho I was never a really great Battle Lord and was a much better Advisor ..." <BR><br />
"...Battle Lord? Advisor?" You ask ...<BR><br />
" well a Battle Lord was one who could extract vengance with out reqeuesting permission from Lord Foolkiller . as well as initiate an action aganist someone who had wronged a fellow follower ..."<BR><br />
Looking serious Boromir states ' the Advisor was such that they spoke with the voice and authority of Lord Foolkiller and were to be obeyed as if Lord Foolkiller had spoken " ... <BR><br />
"It was a duty .." Boromir states quietly " that I took very seriously " ...he continues ... "I was ummmmm one of the last of the followers to be released by Lord Foolkiller and that release brought me to Lady Cordirs' following " <BR><br />
Boromir stands up .. walks over to the table ..,, picking up the first two books .. he places both of them in the chest and closes the lid of the chest ... as if to say ... the past is past ... the present is now ... <BR><br />
Returning to his seat .. Boromir brightens and says ' Next question? " <BR><br />
You think for a moment ...' how has the change from "good" to 'neutral' gone? ' you ask ...<BR><br />
the answer comes back quickly .."its both tough and diffierent .." <BR><br />
"tough in the sense of needing to strike a balance between good and evil ,, difficult because the change in aura has also changed friendships and relationships .." Boromir stands up and walks to the window and contines speaking " .. as a "Good" the lines of who to help and who not to help were clearly defined ... as a "Neutral" .. the lines are very blurred and actions or lack of .. require more thought and consideration.." <BR><br />
chuckling Bormir says " a memory of an adventure comes to mind .. I was accompanying a fellow mage of Lord Foolkillers Following as he wandered in and around the mines of the Dwarfs ... we were moving down a mine shaft looking for gold and equipment when we came upon a group of miners and guards .. Sicar didnt even pause and moved into the attack .. next thing I know ... the two of us are fighting 13 dwarfs ...." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckles . " needless to say ... I was not doin real well ... being a small elf and all ... I didn't fare well at the hands of those dwarfs ... I ended up fleeing when I became too wounded to continue .. Sicar ... well ..he finished them off and staggered over <br />
to where I was ... yelled "we won!!!" then collapsed ... " <BR><br />
he laughs " it took me forever to get him back to the guild "...<BR><br />
" I spent alot of time doin that with him .."<BR><br />
smiling Boromir says " and I learned alot about how to judge when to attack and when not to "<BR><br />
as you add to your notes chuckling .. " must be a good friend ..."<BR><br />
Boromir says ' yes ..but he has left this realm for other fields to travel ... I havent seen him in a couple hundred of years ..' <br />
You continue writing as you consider what to ask next .... Boromir continues " A number of friends have left to seek adventures beyond this Realm ... I miss them and sometimes wonder if I should also seek adventures beyond "<BR><br />
Looking thoughtful .. Boromir stands up and steps to the fireplace .. picks up the nearest log and tosses it on the flames<br />
...then grabs the poker and stirs the coals around ....the fire quickening as he does so..... Sitting back down in his chair ... Boromir gestures and your drink is re-filled as is his own and he smiles at you awaiting your next question... Where do you plan to go from here? you ask ...<BR><br />
Boromir takes a moment to consider your question and responds <BR><br />
" Plans? ... I hve nothing definite at the moment ... perhaps just to wander the road less traveled ... advance the skills I have and learn new ones....help those who need it ... ..you know .. the usual stuff "<BR><br />
he grins as you fill another page and continues <BR><br />
" maybe at some point look to find a ...place to settle down ... not necessarily here in Loth Lorien .. tooo many memories here that are.... painful'<BR><br />
You nod thinking of his parents and their demise ... <BR><br />
Boromir continues " I have one more adventure to relate .. if you're interested .." Yes I am .. you answer smiling ..<BR><br />
Boromir nods and says this is a bit longer than the other ...<BR><br />
Boromir gathers his thoughts for a moment ...then begins his story...<BR><br />
"A couple of us were xpin together in Harpers and doin pretty good .. xp was accumulating at a good rate and all of us were feeling that this could be a place to stay and level...."<BR><br />
Boromir stands up and wanders over to the chest .. opens the chest and gets out the second book .. the book of Lord Foolkiller<br />
returning to his chair ... <BR><br />
Boromir sits down and opens the book ... "excuse me a moment while I refresh my memory " Boromir says<BR><br />
You nod as he opens the book and begins searching for the entrys ...You take this moment to look at Boromir and see an Elf ... gray tinting coal black hair .. a face tanned and relaxed ... a few lines serve to add character .... the lines around the eyes show humor .. and grief ... the ellipses running down either side of the mouth from the nose to the chin accentuate the feeling of strength and solidarity... as you glance at his apparel .. you see nothing extravagant .. a comfortable shirt ... a pair of pants and a soft pair of boots completing the ensemble. You look closer and you see faint shimmering outlining his chair and Boromir .. you then realise the thief skills are far advanced ... only a Master Thief can eminate in that manner... <BR><br />
You suddenly ask if you can look around while Boromir reads ,, he replies ,, "of course .. I ask that you not touch .. some of the items are .... sensitive to ... those who handle them and may react unpleasantly ' Ok .. you reply I will be careful ... Boromir smiles and returns to his reading ..<BR><br />
You stand up and walk over to the window and glance out at the view .... it suddenly hits you that this window looks out over the forest yet,, this tree is in the center of Loth Lorien .,,, turning to ask . <BR><br />
Boromir answers the question yet to be asked .. "its a glamour I have cast ...I like this view much better ,,,dont you? " ... Boromir grins and returns his attention to the book... <BR><br />
Moving to the fireplace, you look at hand-painted images of Boromir and friends in various places and times.... turning to warm your backside .. you see an interesting item across the room on the side table under the mirror ... you walk over to the side table and ask .."what is this? " pointing to the item ..<BR><br />
Boromir looks up and quickly says .. "a wand of power .... its tuned to a mage and will explode if handled by any other " ... your hand inadvertently moves back even tho you had no plans to actually hold the item ...<BR><br />
you look up .. and realize that the mirror doesn't reflect an image but is a grayish colored surface .. you examine the it closer and see that its a mage's mirror ... one used to see afar and not ones reflection <BR><br />
as you turn, <BR><br />
Bormir "ah yes .. here it is .. .I knew I had written this adventure down .. for it was one I wanted to remember ' ... <BR><br />
You sit back down in your chair and wait expectantly ...<BR><br />
Boromir finishes reading .. closes the book and starts " as I was saying ... a group of us were xpin in Harpers and doin well .. gold and eq was gathered and we all were feelin pretty good .." ..sipping his drink He continues " we were taking a break and talking with Chaplain Grimes ... when a number of members in this group receive a request to attend to their Immortal .. and so they left .. the two of us remaining decide to press on .. " .. <BR><br />
Boromir grins and speaks on " so we bid farewell to the Chaplain ... leave the chapel and head south into the east end of the Village ... without warning .. we are attacked and the onslaught is furious .. .. no.. we have no idea who this is for the attacker is invisible and my spells aren't strong enough to reveal who he or they are ... I yell to my companion to flee while I stand fast for the moment ..." he stand up and begins moving around the room as if to re-enact the incident ..." <BR><br />
my companion quaffs a potion and immediately is whisked away to the guild .. I fight on .. knowing I will be next .. I in turn quaff the potion to escape ... and lo and behold I am not in the guild ... but out at sea ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses to catch his breath as he re-lives that moment ... He continues the story .." weakened by the effects of the unexpected transition .. I cast invis on myself and rest ..floating above the waves .. eating some bread and meat and sipping water to regain my strength ... <BR><br />
Again I am beset by my unseen opponent ... I can not stay for the blows are fast and furious and I have but little time to escape before I perish .. again I quaff the potion to escape .. again I am flung to a place not of my knowing .. "<BR><br />
Boromir stands still for a moment ... allowing you to catch up with your note taking .. he waits until you are finished and continues " I immediately move out of the room seeking a place where I can hide and regain my strength... good fortune smiles upon me for I do find a room that only has space for one .. I collapse to the floor ... exhausted beyond belief ..." a pause .. the story resumes<BR><br />
" I gather my strength and hear the sounds of battle near by .... I assume that is my assailant ...so I stand ..girding myself to make the final effort to either subdue or perish .. I hear a cry and then silence...... I remain ... still ....quiet ....scarely breathing .. I hear footsteps out side my hiding place ... they stop ....a loong moment of waiting and dread passes by .. then I hear foot steps slowly wander off in seek of other prey ..."<BR><br />
Boromir pauses and on " I finally have regained my strength .. and have spoken with my companion .. we were talking the whole time ...I decide to leave this little room and attempt to find my way out of this place I have found myself ... I walk down the hall..every sense alert ,, nerves keyed up ... I turn the corner and run into the largest golem that I have ever seen ... I jump back ... ready to defend myself ... the golem just keeps on walking ...I sudenly realize that I am still invis ... *whew* ... a blessing ... for the golem was looked to be 2 hits from gaining another trophy for his mantle had he pressed the issue...' Boromir stops for a moment .. thinks for a moment then says <BR><br />
"2 hits? It hits me once .. I hit the ground ..anyway I suddenly realize where I am ... the southern side of the Sea in Altibia ... a sigh of relief is cut short as I hear the 'pop' of a mages' portal closing ... quicker than I have ever moved before ... I cast my strongest spell and flee... quaffing my last potion in a bid to escape my relentless purser " <BR><br />
Boromir stops speaking ... and reflects for a moent .... the story continues .. " I finally make it back to the guild ... such a feeling of relif flows over me .. a feeling I have not had before that moment .. and but twice since ... I immediately retired to Lord Foolkillers temple .... a place of sanctuary ... I relaxed ..only to be startled by a voice ... and then a mage appears.... <br />
it's Sicar ... laughing .. " <BR><br />
Boromir laughs as he finishes the story .. " the mage I fled from in Altibia was him ... he had marked some of my eq .. and had portalled to me when he heard I was being attacked and had falled to recall twice .. my spell had not hit him for he has recalled at the same moment I had cast it .. ...He did say that the mob standing behind him collapsed as it took effect ..." <BR><br />
Boromir chuckled .... <BR><br />
You scribble down the last of your notes ... You ask if he ever was able to identify the attacker ..Boromir shakes his head no ... "I never did " he explains ..."but I would look to a rematch as some point ..." Boromir suddenly seems darker and a nimbus dances around him as a sudden feeling of power fills the room .. Bormir smiles mm and the room brightens ... Looking at your notes ... the pad is filled with scribbles and notes and you have no more space to write ... you mention this and Boromir laughs .. saying "perfect timing for I have to go ..." Cocking his head to one side ... "Would you like a quick trip home? " Boromir asks.. You think for a moment .. then nod yes ... .. Boromir grins and say 'take a deep breath .. nod your head .. and I'll send you home .." he grins .. <BR><br />
You take in a deep breath .. nod your head .. as you do so .. Boromir moves his hands through a set of motions as he says "Good bye and let me know how it turns out .." ..You start to reply only to chuckle as your own living room shimmers and solidifies arond you ... a voice speaks to you "it was enjoyable talking to you ..take care " a voice you recognize as Boromirs .. You nod .... only to think .. that's real good ... I nod and he can't see me ... <BR><BR><br />
<br />
<br />

== Mortal Restrings: ==<br />
(worn) A mithril amulet surrounded by white diamonds<BR><br />
(on ground) A shimmering amulet, encrusted with pure white diamonds lies here.<BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Amulet:'''<BR><br />
Cupping the amulet in your hands, you are surprised at its weight.<BR><br />
Mithril, one of the purest metals, is also among the heaviest. <BR><br />
The same could be said of the heart of he who wears this pendant:<BR><br />
Pure, but heavy... <BR><br />
<BR><br />
'''Look Pendant:'''<BR><br />
Examining the pendant of the amulet closely, you marvel at the quality<BR><br />
of the diamonds. Bright, clear, and with a deep fire at its innermost<BR><br />
core. The surface of the pendant is engraved with the name of she who <BR><br />
causes that fire to burn so brightly: Cassandra.<BR><BR><br />
<br />

03/17/02 - Bliss goes on a pinching spree, getting everyone who hasn't worn green for Saint Patrick's Day and confesses, "I do have the fastest pinch in the west!"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><i>"... was a great party!! Everyone from the Duke on down to the youngest dwarf was in attendance! Food and drink and dancing and laughing and songs and stories to fill the whole world!! It was glorious!! We partied late into the night celebrating our last night on these shores and the start of the great Migration on the morrow.<br>Stupid Gnome watchkeeper!!! Claimed he tried to wake us but couldn't ..... All of the times to trust a gnome and they fail again!!!! Never Never Never ever trust a gnome! Couldn't wake us; yeah next time dont be drunk and pass out! Doubt he will be found again.<br>The despair that flooded our people; arriving at the dock only to find the ships had departed without us. To never feel the warmth of the smiles of the rest of our families now across the vast sea nor the shouts of our brothers in victory; truly devastating. The Duke bid us to light torches and bonfires to signal the few ships still faintly visible on the horizon but to no avail. Our best efforts came to nought and with it, the hopes for our people's journey across the seas to join our brethern. The Duke's shoulders slumped as he realized that having ceded our holdings in Dwarvenhold to the King and Queen and the parting words exchanged, there was no going back.The Duke and others stood staring out at the horizon long after the ships had disappeared. No words were said but no need, their expressions and demeanor making all too clear what they were thinking. The Duke straightened up and turned, facing his people with a determination and drive that has always been his trademark. He started speaking to his people, the dwarfs of his household and all others in the group standing on the shore. His voice easily carried over the sound of the waves hitting the shore and cries of the seabirds. I can not repeat his words here for like all other dwarves, I was so taken by his speech it was all I could do to write these few words to mark the moment.All that I have of the Duke's speech are the emotions driven by empassioned words lifting the spirits of his people and strengthening their resolve. <br> </i>" .. We will surivive this this calamity! No Dwarf has ever failed at what was their goal and we will not be the first. Our scouts have found a cavern, long buried and undisturbed which they have claimed in the name of Mider! And that will be ours, our City of Mider!! The scouts have reported finding traces of mithril and iron and signs of raw gems so we will be a true dwarven hold with wealth and mithril to keep us safe and powerful! We have no need of those fat gnome-like slugs living in the squalid remnants of the Citadel's outpost. We will make our city greater than that ever will be! .."<br> <i>The shouts and cheers that greeted the Duke's speech shook the earth and rocked the dock on which the Duke stood. Once the cheering and shouts subsided, the Duke and his household hoisted their packs and left the dock. As one, the people turned and followed the Duke down the road to our new home, what is soon to be the City of Mider!<br>We have reached the entrance after a short journey and all looks dark within. The Duke and his party have torches lit and are descending into ...."</i><br><br />

The news is not good for the builders have enslaved Giants to build their city. The slaves toil at their labor and many perish. Scouts reported seeing groups of slaves carrying the dead away to another part of the construction site. Scouts have also reported strange magics and flashes and bright lights within the city limits. The Duke (and I agree wholeheartedly) has decided to not risk any contact with the citizens of that city.So by decree, we will now keep the gates of Mider closed letting no light or sound escape forth lest we be discovered by them. The Duke has also decreed that guards will now roam the city as a night watch keeping the citizens save. Rumor has it that a few rebels have threatened the Duke and he seeks to curtail if not extinguish them.

Over 51 years of digging and building and mining has brought us the greatest city in the world! The mines prosper and grow while trade has brought us wealth and happiness. Alas, I will not be remembering these things for our descendants any longer. It has been months in coming but it is time. My eyes struggle to see the page clearly even in the brightest light, my hands tremble and shake despite my efforts to qwell them. My assistant these last 5 years will be holding the quill and scribing the parchment with the news and events of my City. My liege, the Duke is relinguishing the throne to his eldest son tomorrow, day 15. And tomorrow is the first day of a new historian recording the last words of the Duke and the first words of the Duke here in Mider..... assistants name and he will do a fine job. I have cleared my office of what will be my memories for the years to follow. Yet these young fellows bring gifts and mementos from the past for me to also take with. I take all of these and I will have no place to live! A noisy, boisterous throng approaches my office and I wonder at the cause ... I should have known ... Friends and family have turned out for what looks to be a great party!!I must close with these final words... <br>The City, home of true dwarves everwhere!<br>My Liege, the Duke, true leader of all Dwarves!!<br>GlanniKil<br></i><br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><b>Copied from the Books of Mider, Volume 3515, page 587.

Of slaves ripping asunder their former masters even as the city burns around them. The guard golems are outnumbered and overwhelmed. Its all they can do to hold their temple, much less save any of the populace. Reports of strange and strong magics booming and thundering over that city makes one wonder who or what will be left.

<br />
3) Go easy on the cussing and swearing. Yes, it's a part of life .. a SMALL <br />
part.<br />
<br />
4) PK'ing: Only those people who have harmed us first. We lessen the chaos. <br />
Not make more.<br />
<br />
5) CHARACTER SEPERATION IS VERY IMPORTANT: Read Tamar's FYI - it states my <br />
attitude completely. As a minimum - 1 hour time seperation between your Nexus <br />
character and any other Characters you have.<br />
<br />
6) Sparring is allowed. All possessions and body parts must be returned to <br />
their owner when the sparring session is done. All eq lost during sparring will <br />
be returned.<br />
<br />
7) No Attacking Allies, no matter how good their equipment is. Plan on <br />
losing YOUR equipment if you do ...probably more than once :)<br />
<br />
8) Have Fun!<br />
<br />
9) Have Fun!! I am!<br />
