I think it definitely affected his character and his confidence. It was probably really difficult without a dad to show him how to be a man, and a mom to ya know. So think that was a definite factor. He probably felt really insecure, especially not knowing his last name.

I think...if I were Will...I would have made a last name for myself.

Yeah. He might have imagined a last name for himself.

What would be a fitting last name for Will that he could have invented for himself....and nobody say Smith!!!

And not Turner! Perhaps Ashton...

Totally off subject, but, I'm not sure if Ro or Elfie would have any interest, but what about we open a Ranger's Apprentice Role Play in the non Tolkien forum?

No Turner is absolutely bad!

A Role Play is a story or a game written by several people. You have characters that you play and a story line. Ummmm...one I thought of is Two (or more) Rangers are sent to investigate an uprising in (inserts name of country) but it turns out that it is the government and not the uprising that is in the wrong. Each of us would have characters and write what they are feeling, doing, or saying.

Does that make any sense? I play them often and yet I can't find a good description.

That sounds really fun!! Lets do it!!

Why is Turner bad?? Besides the fact that it's already taken.

1. Same reason you don't want Smith.

2. Turner is a traitor in a book I've read.

3. Turner is a really bad guy in a book I'm writing.

So any suggestions on a story line?

I wanna join the RP!! Censor there's just one flaw in your plot. Remember what Halt said "One riot, one ranger."

Uh no Flanagan didn't make a apprentice for Gilan but we could.

What country? Preferable somewhere with a forest or wood.

Ro please stay on topic!!

Sounds good Cenor. What about....I don't know all the countries for RA. The only one I really know is Skandia. That has lots of woods, right??

Magyara, Alpina, or Aslava might be good. There are no woods on the map but we can make them up. Besides Flanagan hasn't used them yet.

I like Aslava best, just by how it sounds. Alpina sounds good. I think its probably best if we use one of those cause there's not already a history for them that we've heard of. It would avoid any clashing with the original. I'm supper excited!!

You're "supper" excited, Elfie? I like Aslava. I really like Magyara,too. That's fun. What about Sonderland and Teutlandt? Flanagan is always mentioning them but they're never really "in" the books.

Haha I like Aslava as well! The good thing about these countries is that they have no history and no spoilers for some of us here....

Anyways characters:

Gilan-Mareth

Gilan's apprentice (insert name)-Elfie

Halt's niece (inserts name)- Ro

Insurgents leader (insert name)-Do you guys mind if I play him?

+ more characters

Of course Mareth!

So while I'm waiting for Ro and Elfie to pick characters...I will suggest some RP titles.

Silent Shadows

Fight for Freedom

Flying Arrows

Mission to Aslava

Rangers and Insurgents

These are just suggestions and everyone is free to offer some as well.

Thanks!!

I would want to be Gilan's apprentice...but I think more than just me wants that, and Elfie and Ro were here first, so they should pick who they want first. I told my newly converted RA fan sisters about this RP, and they want to join, too. Eruwestiel volunteered to be Gilan's wife. She was mostly kidding...I think.

Before we go picking a title...what will the story line and the purpose of this RP be? I think we should base the title off the story, personally. Although, I must say, those first two titles are pretty awesome!

Whatever you guys want is fine by me. I'll try to think of a title to suggest...however, I doubt I'll be able to think of anything nearly as awesome as Cenor's titles!

Okay Ill pick a character...ummmm...okay. I know...wait no I cant do her because. I would be spoiling something for Elfie. *glares* Kay hold on let me think a sec...Well while I think what is our plot gonna be? We could do like...hmmm...how about something with Genovesans? I like those guys. (PS. Elvis the Genovesans are highly trained assassins) okay can I be Will's apprentice? I mean can we scratch Maddie out of the equation for now? If its not okay with you guys that's fine.

And if you guys don't want me to be Will's Apprentice can I be ELFIE YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO SUFFER A MINOR SPOILER HERE BECAUSE I REALLY WANNA BE THIS PERSON. Can I be Halt's niece? I mean you know how Caitlyn had Sean, well what if she had a daughter?

*slaps Ro's wrist* Shame Ro spoiling a good book!

Okay Ro I am going to say no to Will's apprentice...because...I ABSOLUTLY LOVE THE IDEA OF HALT'S NIECE!

Okay so does Elfie need to be Gilan or Gilan's apprentice?

An Insurgent is a rebellion against a government.

Uhhh Ro you called your sister Elvis lol

Genovesans? Uh maybe. Who do they want to kill?

Yep. I like Halts niece a lot better too. Okay everybody that's my pick.
Oh okay thanks for explaining that.
Sorry Elfie. This stupid spellcheck...
Anyways um....I dunno. I just really like Genovesans. Maybe they were hired to kill King Duncan and we caught wind of it and graceless to Aslava where they(he peeps who wanna kill the king) are headquartered. And then we have to hunt them down or something.

Ooh or let them try to kill Gilan when the govener realizes that Gilan joins the Insurgents? By the way I think the apprentice needs to be new so Maybe the Insurgents catch him?

That plot sounds good Cenor, but Ro and I aren't exactly sure what you mean.

Wait, you guys are going to fast her...what niece does Halt have?! I do not recall this ever being mentioned!!

I think they should go after Gilan, not Duncan...the latter is always a target. I think we should have a new target this time.

I volunteer to be Gilan...only, I don't think I can do him justice. :/

What do you not understand, Elfie?
