LotRO Creatures of Middle-earth Bandits and Brigands

The Lord of the Rings Online Creatures of Middle-earth feature takes a look at Bandits and Brigands.

These men and women have always lurked in the shadows of Eriador. Treasure hunters and cut purses they haunt the ruins of Arnor looking for trinkets or waylay the occasional traveller, relieving them of an over burdened purse.

Of late bandits who once fought amongst themselves have banded together. They are organized and their numbers are growing. No one knows what has brought about this change, but these groups grow more dangerous each day as they turn from cutting purses to cutting throats. After the deadly Archet attack, a cry has been raised for champions to take up the sword and bow to defend the people of Middle-earth from this growing menace.
