The Plan

A long time ago, Omnymax looked into Galadriel’s mirror and both saw in horror, Omnymax helping orcs and a more vile creature, not known at the time which now we call Uruk-hai. For this he was banned from Lothlórien but his return was also foretold.

This time Galadriel had misterious words about knowledge, access and corruption.
Omnymax then went back to Rivendell where he met Elrond, Half-elven who consider him like kin. After some thought they began to understand what Galadriel meant and taking into consideration the first time Omnymax looked into the mirror, they elaborated a plan. They knew that at some point Omnymax would enter Saruman’s most guarded chambers and that would be the time to execute a very calculated plan to sabotage, diminish, and weaken the enemy forces.

After gaining access to Orthanc and its surrondings, a timely executed series of sabotage actions started.

….Level 46

That’s exactly where it started. And this might be a bit long, so please be patient.

It was roughly a year and a half ago when I started playing Lotro. I actually had no idea when I picked up the box (Shadows of Angmar) in the outlet store that it was a mmorpg. I thought it was just a throw the disk in the computer and play type of game. Yeah, just a little wrong there. But I thought, “What the hell, my friend loves WOW so it can’t be all bad”.

Needless to say, I spent alot of time getting used to the controls and format of the game. It actually took me about 6 levels to figure out that doing quests advanced me alot more than randomly killing stuff. (I know, haha) There were alot of times that I wished I KNEW someone in the game to ask questions to without sounding stupid or possibly being ridiculed. Online I’m pretty shy, so I just passed it off thinking I’ll figure it out on my own, and for the most part, I did.

I remember being in the Lonelands questing and I had an odd request. Do you want to join the Kin “Is Awesome”? I thought to myself.. sure.. whatever that means. And that was that. I kept on playing and leveling just trying to make it farther and farther in the game.

I’ll honestly never forget the day I was at level 46 and questing in the Misty Mountains and I got an IM pop up from Daerdreth. It was something to the effect of “You’re gear sucks”. (it was actually alot nicer). See, at this point the only weapons, gear, bling, etc  that I had was from drops. And I noticed that there were some on level quests that I was having alot of trouble with.  

He started to ask the other kin members to make me some gear. Within 2 hours I had new EVERYTHING. I Still remember that my morale went up by 800! I just kept thanking and thanking everyone. And even to this day, words can’t express my gratitude to everyone.

Without getting into writing a novel, with the help of the kin, I actually started talking in the game, I started to understand the game alot better, I started crafting (yeah, didn’t start till 46), and I found a group that CARES about it’s fellow members.

I know there might be some members out there that are sort of the same as me. And I guess the reason that I’m writing this is so that you know that we’re here for you. If you need help, ask. If you have questions, ask.  The kin has brought my joy of playing the game to a whole new level, and I hope it will for all of you too.

Happy hunting, and take care,

Omnymax profile

Ages ago Omnymax was asked to gaze into Galadriel’s mirror. The revelations were so disturbing that Omnymax was banned from Lórien, and his name forgotten by his kind  and his own life forsaken.

But Galadriel also foretold the time of his return, not only to Lothlórien, but also to his former glory and respect among the elves, and the entire middle-earth! And that time, has just begun…

Omnymax is a lore-master focused on dps who walks the Fury of Nature’s path. Usualy can be seen with Flake, his loyal lynx companion.
He is a supreme master prospector,  jeweller and cook.
