In the books, the Nazgul had a kind of terror or blind fear that went before them. Or at least the Witch-King of Angmar (Or, 'Susan' by his close friends) had that power or so. My question is this:

Hypotheticaly, if the Nazgul were in the game, and your character had the extreme misfortune of coming across one of them, how would this 'blind terror' be implemented or done? Would the Wraiths simply have and area-effect blind spell running on them? I am interested how, Hypotheticaly speaking (you don't need to reveal if they are in the Mod or not) you would accomplish this.

Interesting question -

this answer is unofficial, but a thought on how to do it

I would guess by having a constant effect as a part of the "race" Nazgul, that would automatically run an effect similar to your fatigue going to zero with a fairly decent radius. As you would not be a powerful enough person for the Nazgul to worry about, he would pass by, and then your fatigue would slowly return, allowing you to move on, rather than cower on the ground in front of him. This would preclude having any contact with the Nazgul, as you would automatically drop and not be able to do anything whenever one came around.

Just a thought on how to do it...

I dont think this belongs in Tolkien Lore...

I moved it here, Rynos.

Everyone, read the flipping description of the board. It's for discussion about Middle-Earth concerning how things might be implemented in MEMod.

I say the Nazgûl could be in the mod, be attacked and be 'Killed' becouse they come back anyway so it won't sereously affect the timeline, though I doubd one could survive such encounter (Becouse you are not an elf let alone one of the Calaquendi or a hero).
About the Nazgûl terror effect, they all had that sort of terror that fell upon anyone near them, they actually lived from that fear I gues. :nazgul:

Sorry 'bout this being in Tolkien Lore, I was a little out of it yesterday. I had meant to post it in the Questions section, but it obviously slipped my mind. Thanks for clearing up my mistake Daerk...sorry to have been a nuisance. biggrin.gif
Rynos

Yes, you did it ok without knowing...

And you helped me to finally understand perfectly well the purpose of this forum wink.gif
Ancalagon
Huh? oh, well...I had this as a question for the Mod. So I figured it would go in the Questions section, not the Lore section...

Oh well, I suppose I too know understand the purpose, as well as anybody...I need to devote like an hour or so to just reading the rules and memorizing them...^_^
