Looking for a Kinship? Post here.

[BWChubsta]

Your name, or character name and race (if known): Elstanphor - Human Cpt, Skegegti - Dwarf Min

Age: 40

Server: Crickhollow

Location: US - Central

Playstyle: Usually Duo with GF

MMO games you’ve played: EQ, EQ2, WoW, CoV/CoH, DDO, ESO


What kind of kinship you are looking for: I have played Lotro off and on since launch. This last break was several years. I usually duo with my GF, but would like to join a small kinship of friendly players to do small group content with. I really do not have any desire to raid at all.

We were both unable to access our old accounts so are starting over fresh. Both of my characters are early to mid 20's right now.

Though I have played this game off and on for a long time I am still pretty fresh on most of the group content. I have only run instances up to GA with my highest level toon on a previous account reaching early 50s I think.

[Anaxapart]

Name or character name: John

Age: Over 50

Location: SE Europe (EEST time zone)

Playstyle: Solo & group. Experienced end-game raider in various games, without ever becoming obsessive or militaristic about it.

MMO games you’ve played: Played LOTRO for its first seven years, dropped out when my kinship broke up; rejoined three months ago, now L.115 and almost ready, gear-wise, for the forthcoming raid. Otherwise have played RIFT and ESO intensively at times, currently playing Secret World rather more casually.

Why kinships should be interested in you: Experienced, serious player, quiet but sociable, looking for gameplay which is entertaining and at times challenging. Have held most positions at different times in various game kinships/cabals/etc., from officer to deputy leader and raid leader, but happy to remain a spear-carrier in an established kinship hierarchy. Dislike online drama of any kind. Happy to switch servers for the right kinship.

What kind of kinship you are looking for: Looking for a mature, international but largely European membership. Ideally, mixed casual and raiding, meaning both activities available but with no pressure to join. Ideally, friendly and relaxed from a social point of view; for example, it would be nice to be able to run Mordor dailies in company a few days of the week.

[Montjoy]

Age: 18

[Honza]

Your name, or character name and race:
Seamuil, Elf, Runekeeper (fire), lvl 84, VIP account. NO ALTS

Age:
34

Preferred server(s), if any.:
Laurelin

Location:
Czech, CET time zone (server +6)

Playstyle:
group, PvE, RAIDs, semi-hardcore, crafter

MMO games you’ve played:
Those few most significant ones: Dark Age of Camelot (RR8 Paladin), EvE online, Warhammer Online, Guild Wars 2. Tried others, liked DAoC and EvE the most (if I don't count LOTRO).

Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships?:
I am quite an active player (usual times 3-6pm server time, close to daily basis), occasionaly can manage 2pm but needs to be planned ahead and about twice a month tops (putting asleep baby boy at that time normally). I can offer decent activity both on kin chat as well as organising events (fellowships etc.). Ofc, participating in as many as possible.

What kind of kinship you are looking for.:
Active kinship that focuses on playing together in fellowships or raid grps. I have the opinion of MMORPG is supposed to be multi-player rather than massive singleplayer with embedded chat function. Being quite an old MMO player (about 15yrs experience), most of that time belonging to semi-elitist guild I wouldn't mind continuing in that direction (tried very casual kin in LOTRO, but in the end figured out that's not going to work, old dog won't learn new tricks so to speak). I don't alt (or rather, only reason I'd ever roll an alt would be to learn other characters mechanics to improve my teamplay). Currently my fire RK is lvl 84, slowly climbing up to the top (entered eastern Rohan recently). My aim is to visit all locations, do all quest, raids and deeds and in the endgame max out my character (best drops, best ash equipment etc.).

If there are any such kins, that would be interested, please send me a pm here or ingame, preferably with a description of how your kin works to figure out whether I am compatible or can manage schedule wise.

Thanks,
Seamuil

[Weathered]

A friend and I are looking for a new kin that will have us. Our current kin is sadly lacking members that play much any more.

I'm a lvl 115 hunter and he is a lvl 115 champion. I also have a lvl 106 champ and LM plus various support toons. My frind has a lvl 115 champ, plus support toons.

Veteran and VIP player of over 5 years playing LOTRO.

I'd like to find a somewhat mature, friendly and helpful kin that is eastern time based as I play evenings from 6-11pm and weekends (as time permits).
Interests are solo play and endgame fellowship quests and raiding.

Please pm me or find me in game on Crickhollow server (Hunterthompson)

Thanks !

[OrcKiller60]

My character's name is Danenhunt and he is a man and his class is level 26 hunter,. I am 57 years old, so probably a little older than most here. :-) The server I play on is Crickethollow and I am on the east coast. I can only play around 2 hours a night, but have more time on weekends.

I mostly play solo if I can, but will get a fellowship when I have to. I am more of a causal gamer but do like to so some light rp. For instance I will not ride my horse fast through cities. I think it is silly when I see someone ride their horse into a house.

LOTRO is the first MMO i've played, but I have played Oblivion and Skyrim and really enjoy them.

I would be looking for a kinship which would not be 'in my face'. I'm still getting my legs in the game, so still not sure about many elements of it. However it would be nice to be able to turn to a mature group of people for help when I need it.

[Tim]

[WilliamtheWelsh]

My characters name is Bramelreth a human Hunter level 14
Age: 53
Preferred server(s), Landroval
Location. Stark Co. Ohio
Playstyle. Solo, casual, I’m new to this kind of game
I'm looking to join a Kinship so that I can learn this game.
I'm looking for Casual Kinship I play more in the Winter then in the summer

[Nibedor]

Your name, or character name and race: Maelandriel (me) and Faelandriel (friend), both are Wood Elves of Mirkwood (IC).
Age: Between our 30's and 40's (would prefer an older kin if possible but its no biggie)
Server: Laurelin
Location: GMT (times may vary depending due to real life commitments)
Playstyle: We're looking for a kin that holds regular RP events and a progression kinship that like to raid and do group content. We're still low levels at the minute but would like the option for grouping at a later date.
MMO games you’ve played: SWTOR, DCUO, AoC, ESO.
Why kinships should be interested in us: We're both extrememly experienced Roleplayers having led a number of RP guilds in the past. Our Tolkien lore may be a bit rusty but we're open to learning the ways of your kin and hope we can offer our experience in return.
What kind of kinship you are looking for: We're looking for a guild that offers both RP and one that takes part in raids as we'd like to experience all the new content that we've missed over the years. Due to time restraints and because of work/children we're also looking for casual kinship preferably. Most importantly we are looking for an Elf kinship only as we're currently roleplaying a Lore-Master and a Minstrel that are twin sisters from Mirkwood. Mixed race kinships aren't really of interest to us as we're interested in experiencing RP catered specifically for Silvan Elves if possible.
Contact: If you need to contact us our characters are Maelandriel and/or Faelandriel. Feel free to leave a mail or contact us in game.

[Colmn]

Greetings!
Looking to join a kinship after eight years!

I'm Ethan Hilton and I'm playing Colmn Ravenswood, human hunter, man of Dale.
I'm 42, male.
I use the Brandywine server.
I'm in Seattle, Washington (PST), USA.
I solo play most of the time because I don't really know anyone. That's why I'm looking to join a kinship after playing solo for eight years.
I've only played LotRO.
I'd like to lend my time help and friendship to a group and get to know people and make some friends.

Thanks much!

Check Wardens of the Dunedain out on Brandywine server. Could use a DPS RK for raiding and PvP.

[Belamiel]

Name: Belamiel Norodel from Lindon, Elf, LVL 37 Lore Master, Tinkerer (I think I'm at Supreme Level for Cook)

Age: 34, though Belamiel was born in the Third Age.

Server: Crickhollow

Location: West Coast (PNW)






Playstyle: Casual, fun. I enjoy reading the quests and the storyline so I take my time. I've played several MMOs and because I'm a slow leveler, I've never capped out any of my characters.
I enjoy crafting and exploring Middle Earth, decorating my house and collecting clothes I want for my character.
I also really love finding characters from the books, I was really excited when I got to "meet" Glorfindel" and hang out with Goldberry and Tom Bombadil.
I'm happy to help in instances, skirmishes, and enjoy questing in fellowships.

MMO games you’ve played: SWG, WoW, UO, ESO

Why kinships should be interested in you: Positive, friendly, upbeat attitude. I'm helpful and like sharing resources (materials, reputation items, etc) and helping fellow kinsfolk.
In my current Kinship, I cook foods for folks and drop off in Kinhouse, though sadly, hardly anyone is ever online, so I think all that Lembas is just rotting now. Wait, what's expiration of Lembas?

What kind of kinship you are looking for: Active and casual kinship. Kinships that have roles. For instance in the SWG guild I was in (over a decade ago!)
I was the main Tailor in the guild, so I made the clothes for guild members but everyone helped gather supplies for my character.
I had created a website for my Tailor (mostly for my Guild) where they could "order" their clothes and I would make it in game.
One of the Art Directors of the game emailed me to compliment me on the design and usability of my website...haha! I was super excited about this!
Funnily enough, in RL I own/operate a clothing e-commerce! Anyhow, I digress...
It would be lovely if the kinship also had some J.R.R Tolkien fans, I don't have a lot of RL Tolkien fan friends, so would be nice to chat with folks about Tolkien's Legendarium and not be met with the sound of crickets...
And if the kinship did in-game events. Nothing elaborate, but perhaps a designated time when we meet up in game.

*note* I am actually in a kinship right now, though I joined it randomly when I first started playing and there aren't too many active members on it, most often I am online with one or two other people.

[Zeddicus29]

Character: Robwulf
Race/Class: Man Guardian (Level 26)
Age: 35
Server: Landroval
Atlantic Timezone (Eastern Canada)
Playstyle: So far mostly solo PVE/Deeding and Crafting. Would like to run instances/raids at some point.
MMO games you’ve played: Most notably WoW for 10+ years. Various others.
Why kinships should be interested in you. In other words, why choose you and not another player. What do you offer kinships: I am an active, daily VIP player so I have access to most content. I've created alts to have one of every profession available. I don't expect handouts or free things. I occasionally say a funny thing.
What kind of kinship you are looking for. (This one is very important for recruiters): Mostly just an active Kinship with at least some experienced players that don't mind answering a question or two here and there. I am looking to explore everything LOTRO has to offer so my focus isn't on any one thing. I enjoy PVE, PVP, Deeding, Crafting, Instances/Raids, and don't mind dabbling in a bit of RP (although I'm not that great at it :P). Best way to get me is probably a PM in game as I don't check the forums much, but I will try to now that I've posted.

[Orlindo]

Hello,

I am returning to Middle Earth and looking for where the GoH (Guardians of Honor - Elendilmir) folks wound up. If they aren't around anymore then I will be looking for a close-knit Kin that covers casual to raids, prefers brains and humor to elite gear and values kindness both in and out of the Kinship.

If having someone around who started in EQ (a Paladin!), knows strategery from strategy and who remembers when SNL was still really funny then I may just be the toon for you. Please feel free to respond or send me a PM.

FYI I am waiting to Transfer my old characters to my new server so I will need to spin a temporary character if you want to interview in-game.

[AwesomeGamers]

I have recently returned to LOTRO after about a 3-4 year break. I have been in the kin Watchers of Elendil from the beginning but unfortunately it has died down drastically. I play on the Landroval server.

I have created a Guardian named Brytrica who is (at this moment) level 35. I had always been partial to the hunter but Brytrica has won me over. I do have several other characters who remain in Watchers and will for the time being, at least. I have all of the crafters, though they are no longer maxed since my absence. I do have a level 95 Hunter named Illuras but don't even know where to start with her again since things have progressed in the game so much.

I have always pretty much been a solo player but do enjoy fellowships and chatting with fellow kinmates. I would very much like to find a new home where I feel comfortable. I am a 50 year old woman who is off work until further notice. I spend A LOT of time playing.

I have played several MMO's - EQ2, WoW and a couple others that are no longer around.

My biggest difficulties in the game are not knowing about skirmishes (although I have played a few previously) and other instances as I did not do much before. There is always something new to learn, which is one thing that keeps bringing me back to MMO's.

If you have any questions for me please just ask. I hope this gives whomever is searching enough information to go on.

Playstyle: solo but looking to group

MMO games you’ve played: EQ, GW, DDO, WoW, Neverwinter


What kind of kinship you are looking for: I play LOTRO because I love Middle Earth and want to be part of one of my favorite settings. I want to be parts of Raids and end game content, but I'm much more interested in playing through the storyline and exploring. I'm a casual player due to hectic family life but try to get in a couple hours during the week. More time on the weekends. My highest toon right nw is level 33 on Brandywine, but I'm willing to start on another server if I find the right kin.
