"I am not now at all sure that the tendency to treat the whole thing as a kind of vast game is really good -- certainly not for me, who find that sort of thing only too fatally attractive." --JRR Tolkien

(I noticed that quote in the signature of Eáránë Táralóm on the MEO forums. I am 99% sure it comes from the Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien.)

Middle-earth Online (MEO) is a Massively Multiplayer Online RolePlaying Game (MMORPG, or MMORG, or MMOG). At this point the game is still being created, and is not even in beta yet; since the release date is currently "sometime in 2005"; the beta will probably happen sometime in the spring or summer, but no one knows yet. This has not stopped many eager people on the MEO forum boards from taking what information we do know about the game and beginning to plan ahead.

This page will be much more interesting (for those who care) once the game begins, and I can post screenshots and details of my characters' adventures.

I used Photoshop to color one of the MEO concept art sketches that looked reasonably like my idea of my character. My primary character in the game will be Celussë Falasúlimë (read her biography here). She is a member of the Elves of Imladris kinship. A kinship (other games seem to call them "guilds" or "clans") will be a group of players who join together in an organized group for mutual assistance and fun.
