New Callings
Envoy
“Those were happier days, when there was still close friendship at times between folk of different race, even between Dwarves and Elves."
For you the world is a brighter place when folk draw together in common fellowship. You would see the free-peoples of Middle-Earth form stronger bonds of friendship. You are a gifted speaker and see to the heart of matters and you would use your talents to strengthen the ties between the various settlements and factions of man, elf and dwarf.

Everyman
“The wide world is all about you: you can fence yourselves in, but you cannot for ever fence it out.”
Many seek out the thrill and excitement of the road, of far off places and distant lands. This was not the case for you though; you never had any intention of leaving you home and loved ones. Sometimes adventures come looking for you and before you know what you are doing you are out the door and in the wilds.

New Shadow Weaknesses
Curse of Doubt
“A hunted man sometimes wearies of distrust and longs for friendship.”
In time even the most sensible of individuals can begin to lose their sense of being. They begin to doubt themselves and others and as the corruptions spreads in the heroes spirit that which was good and decent about the hero is slowly lost.
Contentious
A contentious hero is likely to display a perverse and wearisome willingness to argue. They are often starting quarrels with pugnacious glee.
Fickle
A fickle hero is susceptible to erratic changes in behaviour, outlook and beliefs. They lack any form of steadfastness and are unpredictable.
Morose
A morose hero often slips into a sullen and gloomy disposition and will be difficult to cajole out of it.
Craven
A craven hero is contemptuously lacking in courage and will look for the easiest option to keep themselves safe.
Lure of Manipulation
“Have we ridden forth to victory, only to stand at last amazed by an old liar with honey on his forked tongue? So would the trapped wolf speak to the hounds, if he could.”
When a man is given a position of trust it can become tempting to use such a position to serve one’s own ends rather than the needs of the many. As the shadow grows on an individual’s heart they can lose sight of their old goals and ideals and replace them with a cold calculating self aggrandisement.
Judgemental
Quick to pass judgement and to dismiss the words of others, a judgemental hero is both critical and unconcerned with the ideas of others.
Hard-hearted
Showing no sign of kindness of sympathy for others, a hard-hearted hero is often callous and unmerciful.
Devious
A devious hero has no qualms about lying and tricking people to get what he wants. They are good at concealing their intentions from others.
Amoral
An amoral hero will selfishly pursue their own goals, with no concern on the decency and integrity of their actions.
