Week In LOTRO

 

Aerindys

  • Got to Volume 3 for the first time on a non-Valor’d character and have been moving through the Epic Story; visited the Carn Dum Day Spa for the first time and it nearly killed me.
  • Ran through the Great Wedding on several characters. Aragorn and Arwen occasionally de-syncing when dancing together is amusing every time it happens. 
  • Downloaded the songbook plugin for my level 120 hobbit mini and bought instruments for a few other characters.

 

Celebathien

  • Discovered people have no manners when catching fireflies, but patience is a virtue with great rewards. Like ALL THE BLINKIES.
  • Finally got the recognition I deserve for being the true savior of the world. After Frodo, at least.
  • Made sure the Great Wedding wasn’t a circus…. right up until a beorning turned it into one with dancing dogs. Rude.

 

Gwaerendes

  • Questing update: Although completely side-tracked by the Wedding, Gwaer is now ready to quest through the Circle of Sorrow in Minas Morgul
  • Completed a major deed or two: Gwaer is now Conqueror of Gorgoroth, and has a funky-looking horse to prove it. And she is able to Dream, thanks to Luinori and Ashigaru running T2C Halls of Night with her.
  • How tall *was* that cliff, Sanswinda? (but also, spent some time dealing with Radagast and am almost done with his Rhosgobel chores)

 

Sanswinda

  • Festival stuff on several alts
  • Epic Battles followed by a frantic escape in Minas Tirith
  • Some relaxing dailies, with some fishslapping of Radagast and some emote spam payoffs.

 

Pineleaf

  • My Anor warden helped to defeat a rather cold giant in Wildermore
  • During Friday Night fights, we ran four skirmishes: Ford of Bruinen, Thievery and Mischief, Defence of the Prancing Pony, and Breaching the Necromancer’s Gate.
  • My characters were learning the joys of a certain new item for VIPs.
