I guess I should make some kind of summary so that a few more people can join in. At the moment its just me and Uorion since Zeno has disappeared. So if anybody wants to join, please do.
The full original planning can be found here and here
Summary
A rescue party is being sent into the Misty Mountains to find out what happened to a Convoy of Dwarves. The lord of these Dwarves is Balis cousin. The time frame for this will be late third age/early fourth age. So far, we are still in Eriador and are just about to leave Bree. From there we travel to Rivendell then onwards, into the mountains.
Here is Uorions original synopsis:
Another idea is that we are sent to see what happened to a convoy of dwarves who went into the mountains and never came back again. This idea would allow for a pretty cool plot twist I thought up. (and no, it does not involve large armies appearing out of no where ;D)

Uorion said:
I know that stone trolls live in the mountains. In the Hobbit, Thorin and co. hundled in terror as they watched some stone trolls playing catch with boulders. I am sure that wargs would live in the mountains as well. We don't necessarily need a main enemy/boss. We could be just travelers who are attacked by evil things. Another idea is that we are sent to see what happened to a convoy of dwarves who went into the mountains and never came back again. This idea would allow for a pretty cool plot twist I thought up. (and no, it does not involve large armies appearing out of no where ;D)
