Unfortunately nothing. I had an accident 2 years ago that injured my back, haven't been able to get back to working yet.

What do you like to do when you are not playing LOTRO? Any interesting hobbies?

When I'm not playing LOTRO, I like to spend time with my family. But I also have a lot of hobbies that takes some time, I am especially very interested in sport and history.

What is the last book you read? What is your favorite?

The last book I read was Ken Follets "Pillars of the Earth". My favourite book is actually a series of books by the danish writer Dan Turéll.

What was the last movie you saw? What is your favorite?

The last movie I saw was the danish movie "Dirch", its about one of Denmarks greatest comedians. My favourite is "Eddie and the Cruisers" with Michael Paré and Tom Berenger.

What kind of music do you like to listen to?

I like Rock. I'm a huge Queen fan but I also like to listen to Kiss, Bon Jovi and Meat Loaf.

Where is the first place you were introduced to the Fellowship: book, movie, or game?

I think it was in the 4th or 5th grade when one of my teachers read a few chapters from the books.

How did you get interested in LOTRO?

Its Lord of The Rings... Need I say more ;-)

I saw in 2007 that it was coming, but due to relocating to another part of Denmark, I didn't start until September 07.

How did you choose your character’s name?

Just using my middle name as I always do.

What race/class is your favorite?

Most of my characters are human, but I really like dwarves too. Only got 1 hobbit and 2 elven characters.

What server do you play on?

Gilrain, the nicest server around. Not too many players and not too few either.

Are you a member of a kinship? Which one?

I am the proud leader of "The Last Warders", awesome kin with great people. Not the biggest kin but quality is more important than quantity. www.thewarders.guildlaunch.com

What did you name your legendary item?

I rarely name my items. I did name my new 2nd age sword "Orc's Bane" though.

Do you have a house in-game? What neighborhood do you live in?

Yup, in Derndelf in The Shire, just over the hill from our kin-house.

Creep, Freep, Neither?

Freep, I have a warg but I don't play it very much.

What kind of food and drink are must-haves in your inventory?

None. Its only something I use when I remember to use it.. I can hold my own without it, but its a good thing to have.
I would rather have the old cooked food to the new one though..

How bout in real-life while you are playing LOTRO?

I'm trying to lose some weight, so all I get when playing LOTRO is coffee in the afternoon and mineral water in the evening.

What is the funniest thing you have ever heard in OOC?

I think it must be a guy saying that he wanted to the best player in the game. That made me laugh. This is not a game where you can be "the best", all you can hope for is to be respected.

What is your favorite place to go site-seeing in LOTRO?

Whenever I see the sunrise from the top of Weathertop it just takes my breath away. That reminds me why I play LOTRO.

If you could hang out in real-life with any of the NPC’s from the game who would you choose? Why?

I think that has to be Elrond or Glorfindel, just think of the stories they might be able to tell.

Where , in Middle-earth, are you most looking forward to visiting?

I look forward to seeing Rohan, but ofcourse I also want to see Gondor and Mordor. I'll be here to the end.
