Biography:   Hello and greetings! I am a fashion and costume design student. I am recently married and owned by 4 kittens. I was first introduced to Tolkien as a child by viewing "The Hobbit" animated movie. The book was later read to me. Gandalf was my first favorite character, but that list of characters was soon expanded once I was able to explore the rest of the books on my own. I am a big fan of the Realms of Men. Most of my stories revolve around them, especially in the 4th Age and 2nd Age. I have been told by others that I am obsessed with Númenóreans. Really, I am. I won't deny it. :-) I write a variety of stories, although I do enjoy humor, fluff, angst, and romance the most. I like to play around with different genres. When I'm not writing, I am often coming up with various costume and fashion design ideas. Some of my ideas actually do come from my stories, or a design might inspire an entire story. I would love to work in the film and stage industries someday, and my absolute dream job is to be the costume designer if they ever made Akallabeth a movie or film series.

bullet Esquire of the King Last Updated: 5/21/2009
We know very little about the character Isildur called Ohtar. How was he Isildur's kinsman? Why was he dear to the King and why did isildur entrust the delievery of the Shards of Narsil to him? This is my take on Ohtar's story. It follows canon events up to the Disaster of the Gladden Fields.
