Use this area to share why you want to join LMB.:
I like to join LMB primarily because of the long history of the kinship. I was originally part of the first beta of Lotro back in 2006 and played up to the first expansion on the Elendilmir server but left due to real life commitments . I like to join LMB of the similar interests we share. I am an amateur musician and my favorite book is The Hobbit, I also have a real love for the game's music and was inspired to become a composer.
I even watched the original 1978 Lord of the Rings animation movie during my childhood I am 44 years of age.
I hope to learn more about Tolkien and add other books of LOTR that he wrote. I desire many adventures with the Kin and be able to contribute by crafting and fellowship
As for the Trilogy books themselves . I like The Fellowship of The Ring, I confess however that my reading hobby didn't really come out till I was in my early adult years.

Tolkien:
Have you read the books or seen the movies? What are your favourite scenes or images? :
I have read The Hobbit , The Fellowship of the ring , and part of the two towers. I have seen all the LOTR movies and I have many favourite scenes.
I loved the scene of Gandalf entering the mines of moria and seeing him battle the balrog . Another scene in the hobbit an unexpected journey was the dwarves singing and throwing the cutlery and plates around. I also liked seeing Galadriel what seemed to be gliding down to the fountain of possibility in fellowship of the ring
Misc:
Is there anything else not covered in this application that you'd like to share with us? :
I have some mental health issues mainly depression that sometimes requires me to be absent from time to time for usually no more than a few weeks at the most . I currently take medication for this diagnosis but sometimes I have to undergo changes with medication in order for it to be effective. Usually my depression treatment requires changes every 3-4 years and when undergoing a medication change I am usually away from my activities for 6-8 weeks.
I also have what is called a mild intellectual disability due to a brain injury from childhood that affects my decision making from time to time and can complicate learning new concepts. When it involves gaming I can't really communicate verbally well and prefer to communicate by text. I am however able to listen to voice chat by headphones.
