The Company of the White TowerThe Captain of the Company is one Angrenel, styling himself Lord of Fire, or Aranar in an Elven tongue. If questioned, he may allude to a past in distant lands far to the West, now submerged beneath the ocean’s waves. He will freely admit to having paid little attention to events in the world over many centuries, but rather having spent his time in study & contemplation, as many Elves are wont to do.
Latterly, though, so many fair things having perished or passed from this world, he has roused himself to action! Applying his knowledge in ways that he ne’er before had contemplated, he sets himself against the devices of The Enemy. Along the way other like-minded brethren have joined him, eager to carry the fight to the Dark One’s very strongholds! With Abarax, a brave & steadfast exile of Gondor, and Calanthir, another Elven Master of Lore, these 3 have been comrades from the earliest days. Others, alas, have fallen by the wayside, but staunch comrades new have filled their places. Khorugrudalad, an Edain named in the old tongue; Pelekas, a nimble, crafty hobbit; Gan, a stout Guardian; a Minstrel of the Shire nicknamed Dimplebroadbelt; Tarinas, Silirien, Tiermond, Bothorn, Rhyaewald, Elves & Men, all valiant & proud; stand amongst our number. There's even a dwarf or two, though they tend to grumble a lot...
Named in memory of a place the Captain once knew (or so he claims); long since stormed & sacked by the Enemy, now covered & cleansed by Ulmo’s healing waters; Nimminas is slowly built in thought & deed, if not in stone & mortar. A motley band of do-e’er-so-well’s, small in number but great in valour, we are The Company of the White Tower!
In the Service of the West!
We are recruiting
We are looking to strengthen our ranks, perhaps with you. We are a somewhat mature kin, the majority in the higher level regions.
Before you decide to apply, plough through our impressive list of kinship rules:
We are a light RP kinship, therefore do not like l33t sp34k at all (ie, banned). Shorthand (or txt) is generally disliked, so keep that to a minimum.
You do not sell to the kinship. If you can craft something to help a kinmate, you're at full liberty to have that person supply every ingredient themselves, but you don't charge them for it.
Beyond that, we think of ourselves as mature, friendly, & up for anything – RP, Raids big & small, or just “Help! I need a hand!” We have our own forum, our own TeamSpeak server, we are a major part of a raid alliance that can call on anything up to 100+ players. We even have a small (and mostly inactive) Creep tribe under the raid alliance banner. And that's the one thing in which we may disappoint - we're not very active in MvP on either side of the fence. Finally, we don't, as a rule, blind invite. We like to have a run or two with you first, so (if you are interested in us), please don't be offended if we don't invite you on first contact!
Oh pick me, pick me!
Good day, stranger. Since it's a pleasant enough day outside, I'll assume you've not just slipped in out of the weather... Oh! You are interested in joining the Company? How wonderful! We can offer you two square meals a day, even on campaign, & your fair share of the plunder. Please give your details to the scribes over there, they'll have you make your mark somewhere...
{sotto voce} More orc-fodder, Sarge. Reckon they'll live long enough to learn which end of a sword to hold?
