Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day...31?

31. The Outtakes - We knew you couldn’t stand the thought of our challenge being over after only 30 days, so we decided to throw at you one last day worth of awesomeness!

You’ll thank us later...

Oh man... That can’t possibly be a good thing.

Geez, Gwindeth...sorry I asked.  No need to go all water spirit crazy on me.

Everyone say hello to Bottomless, the newest addition to the Flock of Smeagols family.

The Possession of Miri G. - Yeah, probably should've taken a lesson from Pippin and not touched the big shiny mysterious marble-thing.

The Exorcism of Miri G. - Uh, Chalse...how many times have you done this again??

Too close, TOO CLOSE!!

You know when you’re scouting a location and you just have to stop and mock the Númenórean statues? ...No? Okay, maybe that’s just me.

Do not ask me to explain the physics of this...

...or this, for that matter.

...I’m preeeetty sure there should only be one moon in the sky. (Ah, the Spring Fest.)

And that’s all she wrote, folks! Back to your regularly scheduled Sunday posts soon!

Codella and Mirinaeth, signing out.

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 30

30. The Faithful Follower - Show us that soldier, animal, herald, anyone that follows you faithfully through the game and makes you feel safe. (You guys and gals are mine!)

 

 

My most trusted Hobbit friend, Codella...never leaves me hanging in a performance. *Cheers Mate!*

Knickknack (Knick for short) is one of Codella’s most reliable mounts, and certainly the most stylish.

Though of course, Miri will always be number one. Here’s to many more adventures together!  

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 29

29. The biggest Mob you ever did see - Let’s see who can come up with the biggest opponent they’ve ever had to take down!

What in the name of Elbereth is THAT!?

Take down in the deadly art of dance, I think you mean! I’m sure you will all be relieved to know Codella did win the battle...even against a tambourin the size of her entire body.

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 28

28. I see a dragon! - Cloud watching, because let’s be honest, we’ve all seen a unicorn or two.

Have you ever tried looking for shapes in the negative space of clouds? Because I totally see a dragon there!

How about cloud-gazing in a reflection? Picture taken at the nameless fishing hole in French Hobbiton (aka Maur Tulhau, Enedwaith).

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 27

27. Weather the Weather - Middle Earth isn’t always the sunniest place. How about a picture of your toon experiencing some inclement weather.

Hobbits don’t care if it’s raining.  It’s almost time for dinner! 

Best pals do everything together, even farm in the rain. 

Though I wouldn’t call this inclement (more like, heart-stoppingly beautiful), this is perhaps the coldest Codella has ever been.

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 26

26. The Redemption - Whew!  The Nightmare is over, and if I may say, that outfit is perfect!

Ah, that’s better. ...What do you mean, dwarf cleavage? (Sexy dwarf...sexy dwarf.)

I’m pretty sure the point we’re trying to make here is that *anything* is better than the [Silken Robe of Golden Splendour].

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 25

25. Costumer’s Nightmare - A day that maybe you should have had help dressing yourself before going out.

Flying purple people-eaters, anyone? (Of the one-eyed, one-horned variety, that is.)

The [Silken Robe of Golden Splendour].  Seriously?

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 24

24. Third Time’s the Charm - An Instance/battle that took you multiple tries before finally winning.

The lovely Drake Matron found in southern Angmar. Four tries before Codella finally admitted defeat...then sought the help of an experienced runekeeper to beat the beastie into the ground.

Miri’s Bane:  I have *never* uttered more swear words at a helpless NPC than I did at Lalia in my early years.  Actually, now that I think about it, I’m pretty sure that I still curse her name every time I enter her Evil Shop of Temptation.

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 23

23. Rubbish and Ruins - The most majestic looking…. ruin.

Don’t Tempt Me Frodo gets silly at the majestic ruined city of Annúminas.

Weathertop, of course! Though the ruins around Celondim (AKA Tham Gelair) are a close second.

See?

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 22

22. Up all night - Picture from the longest Raid ever completed.

GLFF: 7/12 Rift ~lvl 55, need dps and heals.

Me: Sure, I’m in!!

Two days later...

...We don’t talk about that. (Yes, this is Codella asleep in Miri’s bed; Miri awoke to find herself draped over the table of maps. Nothing else is known.)

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 21

21. PARTY ROCK - Favorite Festival Game. (Bonus points for a picture from each festival)

The Summer Festival: Here, we can see Miri sharing a dance with one of the locals at the feast relay race near the Party Tree.

The Harvest Festival: Miri in her “Tron” costume, scaring people with the /boo emote at the Haunted Burrow.

The Farmer’s Faire: Give up your eggs, chickens!!  Come oonnnn, striped one!!!!!!  Gotta love the Egg Scramble.  You know what makes this game even better?  Playing the Chicken Dance for the other scramblers while you wait for your cooldown.

The Yuletide Festival:  Miri plays Gandalf, the villain, in the Frostbluff Theatre’s production of The Disappearance of Mad Baggins.

The Spring Festival:  There it goes... GET IT!!!

The Spring Festival: aka D.R.A.G.O.N. Wars! (Codella always wins.)

The Anniversary Celebration: Let’s get really drunk and set off fireworks! ...That’s it. That’s the fest.

The Treasure Hunt: It’s all luck. Sheer luck. (Good thing Codella has a lot of that.)

One from every festival.  
Picture Challenge: 0    Codella & Miri: 1

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 20

20. Gluttony time! - Best dish around town.

The best dishes are the ones you make yourself.

At least Codella thought it was pretty good.  Meat....*shudders*

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 19

19. Like a Rock Star - A picture of your toon playing an instrument, or attending a concert.

I’ll do you one better: playing a concert! (Here Miri impersonates a dwarf named Durrann Duran in the popular group Flock of Smeagols.) Also doubles as Codella’s 2nd most successful outfit and it was a last minute decision!

Miri performs at Ales & Tales: Extreme! in Moria.

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 18

18. A Not So Very Wild Life - Favourite ingame animal (LM pets included)

It’s always chickens. (Point of interest: Codella is the chicken down in front, Miri is the one to the right, and Chastine is to the left. The sitting elf is just circumstantial.)

Meeoowww!!!

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 17

17. In Honour Of - Saddest NPC death

TORADAN!!!! NOOOOOOO!!! *sobs heavily* (He was Windolyn's boyfriend)

I’ve played the intro more times than I can count and this moment always gets me.

Lotro(geek's) 30-Day Picture Challenge: Day 16

16. ALL the Feels - Favourite emote

Epic Miri is epic.

Fierce.
