As George walks up to the tied up human he begins to wonder who lets himself be tied up by a bunch of goblins. Pengail proclaims himself to be the rightfull owner of the glorious Jewel of the Lone Lands. As George looks up to him, just pondering if it might be an April fowl joke. Pengail slowly dimmed his artiscoratic tone. By the end he just wants to be set...

Please note: The following post was an April Fool’s joke and is not real. Normally critters or cosmetic pets aren’t that huge a part of leaks or spoiler season. Normally they are released and known quite quickly, part of a NDA or specific pets are part of a story line that would spoil too much of the upcoming quest lines. But with U18 on the bullroarer...

George made his way to the north to Candaith. Looking for advice as to what the collar might have held for jewelry and gems. After a short journey he reached his camp. Candaith looked with longing lusty eyes to George. But he quickly changed his mind when George started to ask questions about gemstones and settings. “Do you drink?” he asked. But...

As George bobs and weaves like a burglar between all the touristy regions of Minas Aeriol. He begins to wonder what he got himself in to. Surely he doesnt have to fight 180 spiders and goblins just to move around a bit. Must be a better reward for that kind of activities then a small trinket. Critters feed Don’t want to miss an episode, have a suggestion or a...

Jinx?, Jinx?! A chicken? A lynx? After both critters lose their fright of each other they calmed their nerves. Who is Jinx?, asked George. The lynx told the story of his human loremaster and their stories. George remembers their little memorial and as he starts to put the pieces together he figures that Jinx must be the poor cart driver that got killed towards...

You got yourself a nice little hobbit or dwarf. But their feet grow tired quite fast. Then you spot those things with four legs with players on them. You already had one like those, but it dissappeared after 24 hours. And now you’re dammed to walk to mordor on your own two feet. For surely a horse is too expensive and in /world you get all kinds of advice...

A small quick reference guide to the different kind of accounts. What are you, how do i get it and what is the point of being a specific account. Lotro has a few different account types. But after a little while most players will settle in what is called a “premium” account.  When you create your account on the lotro main website your account will...

What began as drunken mans rant quickly became a sad tale about an old Loremaster that fell on a hard place. His tales of glory and spirit remained unspoken of in the grand pastures of time. Burrowing around the Forsaken inn George picks up bits and ends to what the old scratches and wailing might have been all along. Critters feed Don’t want to miss an...

Don’t the critters have no need for a budget? Sure they can eat straight from the environment in Middle-Earth? Yes they can. That’s why this series will focus on how to get most out of lotro without breaking your vault in Bree. Lotros first big influx of new players that don’t want to spend too much real world cash came in when lotro turned...

An eerie feeling After their luxurious stay in Bree the party arrived to a lesser known inn. A small run-down establishments that clearly had seen better days. The decor is ghastly and the butter on the spread so thin on their lunch it could be mistaken for a ghost. One of those places you’d wonder how the owner stayed afloat for all these years. Surely...

All a little different this week. More background that adds a little thought to this weeks comic. The afterlife of an NPC Most of the time during  your travels you know where you are and where you will end up. How different people remember the travels in between.

As sapience tried to get some peace and quiet after he finally gave up on keeping the cats away. He was rudely awoken again. In the end he caved in and spent some of his hard-earned coins on what was supposed be a “premiere room for a lively hobbit as himself”. Never trust a ward in his own house trying to sell you his produce. As the night drew...

Having caught up to the expeditionary force George began to find out it grew larger then sapience expected. “This hobbit gave it too much attention”, sapience said. I only meant to get some life in the brewery and perhaps collect a few donations for my cause. They even planned all sort of events along the way. I’m supposed to open a festival...

Following Goldberrys advice to stay with her during the night George set out at dawn. Tom’s singing kept him up old night. George was tired and not amused to find another hobbit wandering around. In the end he couldnt get it over his heart to let her just wander around. A quick there and back again atleast turned into some coupons for a shop in Bree. Then...

Remembering his former adventures in Breeland George decided to head for Tom Bombadils house. He’s a quirky guy, but he remembers him fondly. George already lost a lot of time trying to get some information out of the Boffins back in Buckland. It’s getting late and lets hope the other hobbits are more usefull in his travels.

With another year past and everything and everyone a bit older.It’s time to get back to their Critters Journey in 2016. All the critters have calmed down and left the Yule festival for what it is.  Last time George was right on the heels of the Isengard party. There was just a small stream inbetween him and them.

A little christmas break that got used to round up the entire crew for a little gathering and snowman bashing. But as expected getting a ton of animals to sit still for more then 5 seconds proved to be a bit more work then expected. But once they were all too tired from the running around and messing with each other we managed to take a final shot that was good...

    “The hobbit is going to Isengard”, Surely George must have misheard Wald. It was probably just that annoying nephew singing that obnoxious song again. He might be mistaken this time.           “Fly you fowl”, as Squirle shouted waving George goodbye on new adventure. And the merry little chicken set...

George and his dastardly crew said their farewells for the 2nd time. During the forthcoming nights every critter went on their way to their old homes. In critter time it felt like years went by without a noteworthy event, but in Shire days it was just a few months before new trouble started to rear its ugly head. A hobbit named Sapiense was tired of the...
