    Icon12 Women...

    I've got an idea. Why not put princesses into the game, after-all there are a couple of influencial women in Lord of The Rings and The Hobbit. Here are my suggestions:

    I think the following women should be princesses in the game:

    Eowyn - Probably most suitable because she married Faramir.
    Arwen - She also married someone outside her own faction: Aragorn.
    Galadriel - She could be already married into the family yet have individual traits and picture.
    Dis - A Dwarf woman! She is briefly mentioned in The Hobbit I think and is of Durin's house.
    Ioreth - She is a Gondorian maiden and good at healing I think.

    Also they could have individual traits such as:

    Eowyn - Good: Rode with the Rohirim, Trained Maiden-Warrior, Healer. Bad: Failed to get with Aragorn, Adopted?
    Arwen - Good: Fairest Elf Woman in Middle-Earth, Immortal. Bad: Gave up Immortality
    Galadriel - Good: Member of the White Council, Immortal, Carries Light of Elendil. Bad: Tempted by the Ring, Left Middle-Earth

    Somes script would be necessary to disable marriages with orc factions. And possibly some other women named briefly in the Silmarillion could be introduced into other factions such as Dale, Silvan Elves, Eriador, Rhun, Harad. A Rhun-Harad marriage might be cool!

    And maybe married women could be able to walk around the map and get traits: this would work well for Galadriel because she is already married and still include there escence in the game even though powerless in a married state.

    Even though it doesn't really enhance the gameplay that much it includes women in a suitable way, right?

    Are Lore-Masters on my side? What do you guys think?

    But could we end up with Éowyn in a nunnery like in M2? That would be a waste.

    Can't you remove stuff like that? As you can edit the traits list?

    Are you wanting to spawn these princesses?

    I don't think it is possible for a married woman to be an active character, I believe that this is hardcoded.

    There are a few things about the traits that I have problems with, such as the Left Middle-earth trait for Galadriel,, if she's left middle earth then how would she be in the game?

    Sorry, I didn't realise: I was just giving examples of possible traits.

    Maybe this can be the answer to the old debate about assassins... evil orcs get wicked assassins, prancy fancy elves get princesses. (Like they aren't already... hehe.)



    Btw, ogre assassin > ogre princess.

    Yes women...I guess a few important women could be princesses for certain factions. Wouldent hurt if they could make some marriages impossible.

    God no..

    Very seldom (if at all) woman in lotr married because their father told them. Especially elves won`t marry anyone without loving him. And i doubt that proud eowyn would marry anyone she dislikes..

    and the only knew each other from the time that Aragorn departed to the Black Gate and like a week later Faramir asked her hand in marriage. Talk about short term relationships.
