This is the OOC community for the game gondolindrim

Setting: Gondolin, during its height.

What was Gondolin? Gondolin was a hidden elf city, ruled by Turgon. It existed in the First Age from 126 - 510 and was destroyed in fire. Before it all goes to heck, it's a perfect place for a bunch of time-lost people to appear, out of sight of Melkor and his army.

This takes place in the year 300 of the First Age, during Gondolin's height. Humans have been 'awake' for a mere 300 years, and most elves have never even seen one.

Scenario: Something is very wrong. People are appearing where and when they shouldn't be, and it's all focused on Gondolin. Feanorians dead and gone walk the streets, shoulder to shoulder with Rohirrim from the War of the Ring, and there's hobbits in the weirdest places. Wargs appear in the sewers, and there's always the chance a dragon will appear on the main street.

Gondolin now features a blend of modern and Silmarillion-era tech, gifts from the knowledge picked from future visitors. Fridges hum along while horses are still essential to travel. Turgon is getting a little worried since democracy's been brought up. Things will change and evolve as the elves learn more.

What is causing these problems with time and space have yet to be discovered.

Characters: Any non-deity Tolkien characters (Silm, Lotr, Hobbit) along with, once you have an established canon character, the ability to create OCs based in Tolkien canon, such as Haradrim, Easterlings, Dunlenders, non-royals, etc.


Further Info:

What does this entail?: It means no explicit logs/threads/posts (in the sex and violence sense, and that we'd prefer you stay away from certain plots like rape). No nudity in pictures.
