    Would Aragorn technically go Paladin when he becomes 👑King?

    The moment he reclaims his sword and his rightful place as king. Hence royalty and the bloodline and has palace privileges. Means he gets upgraded in rank. From Ranger - Paladin

    Did the Rangers of the North do the Standing Silence?

    So in the Two Towers Faramir shows to Frodo and Sam the "Standing Silence", a custom of the Rangers of Ithilien (I assume all the Dúnedain of Gondor do this as well). They stand and look towards the west in silence before a meal. As Faramir says in the book "[...] we look towards Númenor that...

    Chieftain of the Dúnedain after Arathorn II's death

    So in the research I've been doing it says that Aragorn's rule as Chieftain of the Dúnedain started as soon as his father died (T.A. 2933). However, by that point Aragorn was only 2 years old, and wasn't told of his lineage until he was 21. So during the time that he was raised by Elrond, was...

    Why Ithillain rangers got no authority to get equipped with mithril?

    Yeah, such elite armed forces trained as hardly as tower guard and appointed to much more risky military tasks than the previous,yet with lower hardware? Was it due to prevention of any mithril classified stuff from being captured or anything else? Any idea?

    Earlier Gondor Rangers?

    Rangers of Ithilien were set up in the latter 3rd Age as a all-round rapid elite knight-class military forces, yet before their appearance, who're in charge of their duties and operation? There'd been too many reasons that Gondor needed such all-round elite military units, such as rapid tactical...

    Further discussion about Rangers of Ithilien?

    It's obvious these bad ass are under the direct command of the Army-Level command, meaning that they're not normal recons usually under the command of tactical unit like divisions or even combat unit such as companies. So...let's get back to business, where're these guys during the siege of the...

    OOC Rangers

    Hey guys, I have this idea for a RP, called 'Rangers'. Rangers takes place right after Aragorn is crowned King of Gondor, and it is the story of what happens to the rest of the Rangers of the North. Perhaps they became Lord of great lands, perhaps they continued to wander the North, perhaps the...

    From 'Westernese' to 'Rangers'?

    I've noticed that essentially the same race appears to be referred to differently at various junctures and sometimes (I think) interchangeably. Can someone help clarify this: 1) Men of Westernese or Men of the West 2) Later took Numenor and were known as Numenoreans. 3) Later referred to as...

    Why didn't the Rangers go South?

    Let's trace the events: >> Arnor - destroyed >> the population of ex-Numenoreans - scattered all around the North having lost homes and kingdom >>Gondor - still holding positions there in the South and yet in desperate need of help in order to survive Then WHY, I have been often...
