About Jesters and Questers
Jesters and Questers Objective: Fun, Humor, Questing

A kinship with few rules.

Casual over stressed game play

Use voice for at least listening, speaking is optional, but more fun

Crafting is a big part of JaQ (even though crafting is a solo endeavor! So don't waste your groups time by selfishly running to every node be considerate to your group and don't waste their time!)

Just when you think you have done it all, you find -> You don't know JaQ!





Welcome to members of Riddle of Steel kinship, Golden Khanates, Swords of Light, Eternal Brotherhood, Doom of Mordor, Sleepless Knights (Meneldor AND Brandywine) and all the GOOD puggers I have met on my travels. and perhaps soon JaQ will become a reality!


Magemiguel is the founder of the Meneldor Jesters and Questers Kinship, while Stoutfellow remains the site administrator.

We use and recommend Dolby Axon and it's FREE!!
Don't let skirmishes break up your friends!
Use Dolby Axon to make LOTRO bearable, doing solo instances with no chat = NO FUN:(



Check out Dolby Axon, they removed the charges so the pro version, formerly $19 a year, is now free!

I had spent about fifty hours on updating the virtues chart to reflect the increase to 12 but at the time there was a question whether ALL the +2 virtue rewards were going to 1, or just a few, anyway here is my chart which just had beta info:

from: New to LOTRO? Here is your thread...

This year at Pax East, Turbine was nice enough to offer a huge number of copies of "The Mines of Moria, Special Edition" to everyone that passed through their convention floor area.
These copies of LOTRO (As well as many players who have purchased the $9.99 SoM Special) will offer new players a chance to play and discover the wonder and amazement of the Tolkien's Literary Masterpieces.

For that reason I felt it was necessary to cover a few helpful tips and offer a place for new players to offer up questions and concerns they may have.

We hope you enjoy the community and choose to stick around!
