Hello! I poked around this beautiful site on a casual basis about...gosh, about 15 years ago...when I was newly in love with all things LOTR. And very new to the internet in general, so I had no clue how to navigate a site this big or indeed what anything really meant. But this site is as beautiful as I remember (more so now that I can appreciate the details and complexity somewhat better), and I hope to really get to know it.

i'm never quite sure what to put in these things but i'm a big fan of lotr/the hobbit. I have indeed read all of Tolkien as well as watched all the Peter Jackson movies and the movie "Tolkien" which I feel like doesn't get talked about very much but i loved it. I'm 17 from the UK (F) and a lover of this site, i just never signed up before <3

Hi there! I'm 17 and a big fan of Lord of the Rings! As you can probably tell by my username and avatar, I gravitate towards bad guy aesthetics, but don't worry, I'm totally on the good guy side.

Greetings to all!

Name: chaered
Age: venerable
Gender: male
Current abode: living in Austin, TX, USA.
How did you find CoE: wandering the interwebs.
What are your hobbies and interests: reading, languages.
Have you read the 'Lord of the Rings' & 'The Hobbit' and/or seen the movies: read; watched in theater.

I've been dabbling in Quenya for about a year, spending some time on Discord (Vinye Lambengolmor), looking at Eldamo.org, etc.
My attempts at learning more made me put up a small site with some conjugation/declension help, but it is not complete or all correct.
Looking forward to some fun Quenya-related discussions with the members of this forum!

Welcome Chaered.
I need to point out that our site rules do not allow links to your own site, unless required for a specific topic. Since this is an introduction thread, it's not on topic and hence I've removed the link.

Welcome Chaered, I think a link to your site would be alright in our Quenya forum, where other learners will also spot it more easily. Feel free to jump in to that forum, and good luck with learning Quenya! The more fans of languages here, the better ^ ^

Greetings and salutations, I hope this will be a reasonably active forum as there is a new Tolkien series coming out on Amazon in a few weeks. I am a fan of the original works The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion. The Jackson movies were too great a departure from the source material (especially the relationships between the characters, with Jackson's changes rendering the original LOTR story incomprehensible and The Hobbit unrecognizable).

Hello wightOfDolAmroth, welcome to CoE!
Time will tell if the new Amazon series is any good, and whether or not we’ll see a new influx of people . But it’s good to see some renewed attention to Tolkien’s works.

Hello everyone!

Glad to be here

I am looking for costume ideas, as my nephew is having a LOTR themed wedding this coming summer. I am thinking of something from Rohan; I think a medieval-looking gown would be great. Any ideas/links? I’ve searched here but very likely not enough.

Name: Eadgifu; an early medieval English queen
Age: 53
Gender: Female
Where are you from?: US
How did you find CoE?: Looking for costuming ideas; this seemed like it would have many resources
What are your hobbies and interests?: The Middle Ages; crafts (sewing, knitting, etc)
Have you read the 'Lord of the Rings' & 'The Hobbit' and/or seen the movies?: Seen the movies, and read most of the four books.
Do you have any questions about finding your way around CoE?: Costumes!!! I am looking for how to make a costume.

Hello and welcome Eadgifu. I'm not sure we have any specific forums focused on costume making, but you might want to dig a little deeper through the Creations Forum's threads. Chances are there are some that discussed the topic (admittedly often from years ago).

Alatúlie to all!

'Tis I, Ilmare, chief of the Maiar, handmaiden of Varda Elentári, and Guardian of the Stars.

From Taniquetil I look e'er afar, beyond Aman towards the very borders of Arda and beyond, and delight greatest in the Stars that my Lady hath made, of those that shine e'er the greater upon the coming of peaceful night.

The Maiar descend at a time when they must, by the Will of Ilúvatar, and 'tis now that I have come, to bring the Light of the Stars forth, and lead Arda to a brighter future.

Valar valuvar! Cala o Eleni cuita! A, Elbereth Gilthoniel! Aure entuluva!

(Will of the Valar be done! Light of the Stars awaken! O, Elbereth Starkindler! Day shall come again!)
