Hail and Well Met!

Greetings to all free people of Middle-Earth. Join Kirvay, Lalinreth, Jazdeia, Drakorin and Sylwin as they travel through Middle-Earth and offer hints, tips and opinions on the lands, people and characters they meet along the way.


This is a blog about 5 characters that I play in the game Lord of the Rings Online. LOTRO is an MMORPG which stands for Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game. LOTRO is based on the great books written by J.R.R. Tolkien:
The Hobbit
The Fellowship of the Ring
The Two Towers
The Return of the King
The Silmarillion

In this game you interact with real people as well as NPCs, or Non-Playing Characters such as Bilbo, Frodo, Strider, and many others. You can visit the Shire, Bree-Land, and even find your way to Rivendell and continue to the Misty Mountains!

There are four races that you can choose to create a character from; Humans, Elves, Dwarves and Hobbits. Dwarves are male only, but you can create either male or female characters with the other races. There are also several classes to choose from, but not all classes are available with all races.

The classes are: Burglar, Captain, Champion, Guardian, Hunter, Lore-Master, and Minstrel. Each class has it's benefits and it's drawbacks, but no matter what you choose to play you will have a great time exploring Middle-Earth.

So, follow along with me as my adventures take me far and wide. You never know what I might run into or finally get accomplished.

Weaponsmith Quest Too Easy

With my half-sister at my side, we traveled to Naerost. When we were almost there, a half-orc was on the roadside, and I being a brave Guardian decided it should be dispatched. This fell creature was carrying the ruined Elven Blade that I and Aereanor were seeking!

I was fully expected a terrible fight, needing to slay several of these creatures before the blade would be revealed to us. To find the blade on the first half-orc was fortunate, but a bit of a let down.

I had fully prepared myself to stand toe to toe with these creatures, rending and smashing them in groups.

I can't say I wasn't delighted at our good fortune, and I did make a beautiful Elven Hunting-dagger, and have progressed in my Weaponsmith training.

Maybe the next quest will be more challenging. I shall let you know when I know.
