HOBBIT
Fallohide.
Lovers of trees and wood-
lands, the Fallohides were the fi rst
Hobbits to come to The Shire. They
generally tend to be fairer of skin and
hair, as well as taller and more slender.
Harfoot.
The Harfoots are the most
prodigious hole-dwellers and were the
fi rst to cross west into Eriador. They
generally tend to be darker skinned than
the other kindred, as well as smaller and
shorter.
Stoor.
The Stoors were the last of the
Hobbit kindred to come to The Shire,
settling in the eastern marshlands that
became known as the Marish. They
generally tend to be heavier and broader
of build than the other kindred.
MAN
Bree-land.
Bree-land was once part of
the North Kingdom of Arnor, ruled by
Elendil the Tall as High King of Middle-
earth and by his elder son Isildur. Now
it is but a simple, rustic land, and the
North Kingdom is no more.
Dale-lands.
The Dale-lands lie in the
northeast of Middle-earth, beneath the
Lonely Mountain, where Bard the Bow-
man slew the dragon Smaug and fought
in the Battle of the Five Armies.
Gondor.
The land of Gondor is the
South Kingdom once ruled conjointly
by the sons of Elendil, Isildur and
Anárion, ever-watchful against the
looming threat of Mordor.
Rohan.
Home of the Horse-lords of
the Riddermark, this realm was granted
to Eorl the Young by Cirion, Steward
of Gondor, and is currently ruled by
Théoden, son of Thengel.
