Lord of the Rings Online : Lorebook Updates

The Lord of the Rings Online Lorebook has been updated with new entries detailing locations, creatures and characters in Turbines incarnation of Middle Earth.

When Oskari, brother of Iivari and First Hunter of the Suuri-lehmä tribe, led many of the Earth-kin hunters in a revolt against their brethren, he aided in the creation of a new tribe: the Rauta-lehmä, the tribe of the Iron Aurochs. He led them eastward into lands controlled by the Rauta-lehmä’s masters, the Angmarim. There, in the North Downs, they established a war-camp at Fashat Laug, near the ruins of Ost Crithlanc.

At Fashat Laug, the Rauta-lehmä gather their might, recruiting more of their kindred and replacing their crude hunting tools with iron weapons provided by the Hillman-armourers at Ost Crithlanc. When the storm of Angmar’s wrath is finally released, the Rauta-lehmä of Fashat Laug will stride forth against their own people and all others who stand against the Iron Crown.

Fashat Laug is a site created by Turbine for The Lord of the Rings Online™: Shadows of Angmar™ to further develop the giant-race called the Earth-kin. Players will likely find many items stolen from the Suuri-lehmä there.
