Coming soon to a village near you! Traveling Tidbits is currently a one Elf endeavor to offer assorted snacks, meals and sometimes experimental drinks to the many people (and creatures) of Middle Earth. The Elf in question is Filhedhel. She will randomly choose a town or village and look for permissions to cook and serve food to anyone who comes by. It may be in the local tavern, the town hall or in an open field while dodging Aurochs! Offerings to include (but not limited to, and subject to change): Stone Stew- a hearty stew of local meats, vegetables and herbs with a heat-retaining stone tossed in the pot to keep it comfortingly hot! Assorted breads and pastries Frisket's Basket- The week's experimental bakery offering! It might be cookies! It might be cake! It might be granite-hard muffins suitable for range ammunition! Drinks! - There will always be assorted teas and coffee offered with suitable accompaniments, but sometimes Fil tries her hand at brewing and cocktail mixing too. Sometimes she tries to do too much at one time and confuses cocktail creation with alchemy, so be on the lookout for interesting reactions! There is never a charge when Traveling Tidbits is open, all who are hungry are welcomed. If you feel the need to trade, then produce, interesting trinkets, music or stories are preferred, but never coin. (( Specific locations and times of day will be posted at least 24 hours ahead (for the most part) on the Roleplayers of LOTRO site. This is noted as a 'one elf' mini-event but as a player I welcome other cooks, minstrels, booze vendors and everyone to come join in when I set these up. It may become a regularly scheduled event but for now, it will be random 'when the spirit moves me'. Frisket is Fil's happy lil dog. )) 22-03-26 [more] Filhedhel	*Professional soldiers, and adventurers available for hire. Provide excellent service, and discretion.

2-02-26 [more] Atgar	Now open for the Harvestmath Festival Event (October 9th- Novemeber 3rd): 5 Waterbank Rd, Imloth Lumren, Falathlorn! Enter into a world inspired by the Halls of Memory and Eerie Acres. Brave hungry trees, hungry trolls, and even hungrier bears (oh my!) as you wander through the house in search of treats. Each 'haunted' scene contains a treat mat that can be used for advancing the "Treats or Trickery" deeds (all eight are present in the house). Can you make it through the whole house or will you run in fright? Are the 'monsters' all a trick of the imagination or a treat of holiday decoration? The house will remain open to all throughout the harvestmath festival. Feel free to use it to just collect treats or plan for RP adventures through it for you and your friends.

The time of War is over. The Enemy has fallen, his Ring destroyed forever. But there is work to do still.

To defend all that is dear to us, and to drive back all remnants of the Shadow. If you wish to contribute to this effort, we ask that you join us.

"AELLWENN'S MARRIAGE DANCE.- ALL WELCOME!" Details of the event are given 'pon a smaller pamphlet underneath the banner. details 7-06-24 [more] Leorhan	(Please be aware this is going to be a Med-heavy RP. So it wont be like RP you see before the Pony, but instead more serious in character) Greetings reader! As some of you might've noticed there is a large growth of Orphans in Bree alone since the war against the Shadow. Well the build of Orphanages by Lady Joselle Long from Gondor is greatly appreciated, the Orphans lack a supply of toys. Enter Dale, the city just bordering Erebor, east of the Misty Mountains and the dark Mirkwood. That city creates toys perfect for these kids. Thus we need to get a caravan together and travel the road once travelled by Thorin and company. To get us toys for the Orphans in Breeland. It will be a dangerous road, but it be worth it! Though we still need to discuss who and when! Send me requests via letter (I ask Barliman everyday, so you can just give it to him). And keep an eye on the Billboard for when it is planned to go! ((To find a right date for, please send me (Valkoin* or Aevwyn) an ingame mail. If you have me via Discord, you can do it via that aswell,))* 24-02-24 [more] Valkoin
