Know Your LotRO Lore: Final Thoughts

If you play a Dwarf in LotRO, hopefully this article will help you empathize with your character a bit more, and understand their background. If you roleplay a Dwarf, maybe this piece will aid you in relating to your character's plight. Since the Dwarves are coming off of their climactic times in Middle-earth, it's no wonder they always seem so stern and determined. Plus, the fact that they were basically the science experiment of a Vala probably doesn't help things.

That said, they were created to withstand a lot of hardship. Aulë made sure that they would be unlike any other race, and I think we can honestly say that goal was achieved.

Join us next week as we complete the racial articles with one explaining the origins of our most recognizable race: Men. We'll explain much more about their role in Middle-earth than you might imagine, as they're actually one of the most detailed and extensive races in Tolkien's works (besides Elves, of course).
