Re: Canon character | Curufin | Not held

Hi there Haze! Glad to see you're interested in joining us.

Disclaimer - Curufin is not my area of Tolkien expertise, so forgive me if I'm missing something!

Regarding your AU-ish situation. Correct me if I'm wrong - but it sounds like you have added some extra headcanon post-death history tacked on to canon. That is going to be a bit of a problem, as history alone does not make a playable AU.

At the same time, a canon character cannot have any AU elements.

To play him with this AU history added on, there would need to be a physical or decidedly different personality change to go along with it. (Essentially this is a way to cheat the system - see this page for a guide on AUs at AM)

I'd be more than happy to go over your AU ideas, either here or on plurk - [plurk.com profile] marcuswolf828 - to see if we can make him fit.

EDIT: Also you're well within the claims week, so don't worry about it rolling over. Don't be nervous, I don't bite, and we'll find a way to work this out.
