My Crew

This past week in LotRO: Faron, Augustinn, Taaure and Linlorien all hit level 45. Hodrath, Ahron, Marinnus and Oodon all hit level 42.. I'll get them to 45 and then level up the rest of my crew: Bontao, Boroamir, Coremar, Dilliar, Hoppii, Lyoin and Shanyar (they are all level 40 now). 

Summer Fest Horses

Well I was late this year getting to the festival this year - but I did manage to squeeze in 5 or 6 days worth fun! The Keg Races and A Taste of Hobbiton are super fun, I didn't get a chance to compete all the deeds this year but there is always next year (if I'm able to attend).

Not all my toons got their Steeds this year but 3 or 4 of them did so I am happy about that. I really love this Sunflower Steed - I'll be riding this one at times I know.

Oodon showing off his new Steed of the Summer Sea

with the famous Shire Rainbow in the background.

Sunflower Steed & Taaure in his new Tunic dyed Shire Peach.

Taaure showing off the original color of the 

Long-sleeved Sunflower Tunic and Trousers. 

I find many colors work well on this Tunic. 

Dilliar carrying the ice to the Bywater. A fun little quest for Festival Tokens.

Hodrath on the same quest.

Faron flying the Kites

Faron Fishing - I love these quests because 

they really help with the Fishing Hobby.

Hodrath having a pint at the Green Dragon.

He's showing off the Surcoat of Nárië and

the Summerdays Hat dyed in umber.

Linlorien showing off his new 

Long-sleeved Summer Tunic and Trousers. 

Oodon chatting with Neddie Grubbs by the Bywater Fishing Hole.

Just before the race begins at a Taste of Hobbiton.

The beginning of the Keg Races.

Marrinus showing off one of the consumables: Fire-breathing Potion

Faron showing off the Monster Fare consumable.

Faron, after all the fun partying got sick. It must have been

the Vile Vittles  consumables that did him in. 😜

I had a blast! Just too bad I wasn't able to attend the first of the festival but I 

really  enjoyed what time I did have this year.

Random Photos

A couple of random photos taken during the Springfest 2017.

Bontao in the Shire looking at some of the fruits and vegetables! Yummy! 

Faron and his pet fox Bandit (he got it from Bert/Bingo).

Hodrath wearing the Surcoat of the Yield (from Farmers Faire 2016)

Hodrath's Look

 I normally have Hodrath in this teal color but when

he's on his red and black horse, he looks better with a

dark read colored mark.

This looks ok with that horse and not so "stand out" while riding it.

 I think when I decide to ride that horse, I'll dress him in something similar to

what he's wearing here and change his mark color - looks good and  easy to do.

Pick A Steed

WOW!!!! My Beorning, Hodrath, just got a "pick a steed box" -- a rare item -- during his deed grinding and this is the steed I picked out, Red Painted Skeleton Pony! RARE to get a box like this! :)

I got it in the Barrows -- deed grinding out there! Bree-land.

And The Fishing Begins

I started with Faron fishing for his house  trophies (of course festivals were we fish) but decided last night - they all need to get their fishing. So starts the role-playing fun of who's the better fisherman.

Dilliar told Faron "No man can out fish a dwarf!" -- So he started his fishing today... lol. Not much to brag about in the beginning as far as the fish goes but he'll catch up sooner or later. :P

One Of Each

Out of 15 toons,  5 classes are doubled (Hunter, Runekeeper, Warden, Minstrel & Champion), the rest of the classes I only have one of each (Guardian, Beorning, Burglar, Captain, & Loremaster) and they are listed below.

One Loremaster

Ahron

Characters From Crickhollow

One character on Crickhollow was axed to make room for the re-rolled characters from Landroval to Crickhollow and that was Ottavia. Below are the characters or toons (as I call them) that I kept on Crickhollow. These toons remained the same without any class or name changes.

Faron Boweman - Hunter. 

Still the same ol' Faron from 5 years ago, just been re-rolled to start over from 

the bottom and back to the top of the game again. :)
