Cururaukar Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Hey Thinker.This is a good idea. We have elfs (with enhanced facial mods to "fix" them up to tolkien lore) and we have dwarven architecture and we have orcs and humans. So much of the foundation is there. When I look the skyrim map and the "tech" level in armors and weapons I would suggest you would take the lotr world from the children of Hurin´s book. This book takes you back to the early days of middle-earth (1st age of the sun) when humans were young race and elfs were old and powerfull. Events could take in the harsh environment of the book where humans live. This area is given to humans by their allies the elfs. There is a huge lore behind this era and lotr wiki will help you in this also. (thou I suggest you read the book, it is a good one). At that time Dragons were born (or made by Morgoth) and send to torment elfs, dwarfs and humans. Hero would surely be needed. Turin son of Hurin was one of the few (if not the only one) of humans who killed a dragon. Players story could be about him and his story more or less as in the book. If you preferr lotr time 3rd age of the sun (or man). This is the time when elfs are leaving their places of power and humans have to get by on their own against very powerfull enemy. This area and its buildings could be that of Rohan. I suggest you take a look lotro game site as it has a lot of that time lore in its lorebook area. Main character names and history. Also Hobbit movie is coming so Smaug will be introduced, but if you cant wait for that there is the hobbit animation movie (1977). It will help in short time to find this era a bit more. Don´t forget. Tolkien wrote many songs and poems that tell stories from the ancient times. Lore that isn´t all that apperent unless you allready know what is it about. I liked that slightly enigma part to it. This could be in written books that could be found in the game and possibly songs sang by bards in the taverns or references on elf characters poem -like dialogs. There is Glamding, Narsil sword mod allready and surely others lotr mod parts that I don´t know yet. I suggest you buff up the dragons in this mod since they should be harder then they originally are. (there is a ready mod for this too and I use it...makes winning them epic). Well I hope here is something that you might consider in your work. I wish you good luck, this is a big mod to do. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
