Week In LOTRO
Teriadwyn
- Axli and friends headed to Enedwaith and rescued some former rangers (Grey Company guys).
- Saryssa finished up in the Broadacres (for now) and is rooting out corruption in the Stonedeans. Really loving being a burglar in Rohan.
- Welldressed Killingmachine finished Volume 1, Book 2 and then decided to belatedly start working on World-renowned, so did a whole bunch of crafting to get Kindred with the Eglain.
Cyndars
- I attempted Kidzhul Kalah with Maven, Sans, Crister, and some other PLOI folks. We died gloriously, multiple times.
- I participated in Friday Night Fights and ran Spider Wing and Thievery and Mischief. I also learned Loremasters should never fancy themselves healers… Share the Power: fellowship is not nearly as helpful as Beacon of Hope. I might have been doing the same thing on Thursday night… Sorry, Crister and Pineleaf.
- Worked on getting Emerallina up to 120. She’s 118 now, and in Skarhald!
Sanswinda
- Finished the Black Book of Mordor on my minstrel, so she is ready for the new expansion.
- The new yellow line hunter I’ve been running with Gwaerendes reached level 17, has learned some new dances, and is now a member of both the Inn League and Ale Association.
- Almost reached level 100 on my minstrel, Sanswinda, on Arkenstone. Instead of questing to reach 100 though, she bravely led the fellowship to a slaughter in an attempt to get First Age LIs.
Crister
- Almost made it to the end of Thrones friday night. I messed up the loot rules and got locked out of one fight, so Incompa-Crister is still going strong.
- Halloween consisted of Dome of Stars and Kidzul-Kalah, and I dressed as the Rhunt-less Horse Orc and scared small hobbits.
- Got knocked off my horse too many times in the Vales, I am a trampler, and need to trample, how can I trample if I’m knocked off my horse? HMMMM???
Maven
- Took a casual stroll through Minas Morgul and Second Age Barad-dur, and I have two words for everyone: LOTSA POTS
- Got both my Beorning and my LM all the way through the Black Book, thanks to Amelora and Nitesh being patient about me dual boxing them around the Gladden Fields
- Followed Crister’s lead (with a bit of reminding from Rud) in a great Dome of Stars run and was part of the “learning experience” of the 6-man Kidzul Kalah foray.
Pineleaf
- My Arkenstone hunter completed Bingo Boffin and reached level 100. Then in the field trip, we learned the “threat” in “Roving Threats”
- My Warden on Anor reached the Gap of Rohan.
- My Landroval hunter headed into Enedwaith and encountered a hobbit with the name of Pineneedle Diggle.

Very entertaining show this week! Thanks to all of you that keep this going! I was laughing quite a bit with the comments about Gandalf asking you to pick up the mask, I too made a verbal comment when I played this quest something about, “Really? Gandalf, it’s right at your feet, I’m like 20 feet away” “I know your old, but you picked up Faramir’s body twice, you should be able to bend over and pick up a mask!” Then after you pick it up and give it to him, he says something about it being really dangerous and no one should handle it…..Again, Really, thanks Gandalf…. In the later instance instead of fighting him,I almost told Karazgar that if he wanted the Black Book, I would give it to him…:) Thanks again for the great show,
Louni (Fin)
Oh…Almost forgot, Great to hear Maven again, and glad to see Crister back on the show!!!!
