Lotro OC Introduction Reblog Game!

Get your guys out there! People want to know about your OCs but don't know where to start, so this is an opportunity to introduce them to lotro tumblr!

Reblog this post with a list of your lotro OCs, give us a name/race/class and a little about them! Such as where they're from and some neat facts about them/their story. You can also link to your favorite fics featuring them if you'd like so people know where they can start reading!

Duartr, child of Lartr: a nonbinary dwarf, whom I like playing the most, because I like dwarves. They were born in Ered Luin not long before Erebor was reclaimed. They and their mother worked as farmers. And Duartr also participated in guard work. After mother's death Duartr left Ered Luin to travel. There is some pessimistic nature around them, but they are friendly nonetheless.

Pavoflordic Thornfield: a hobbit, the youngest in his family. Possesses a very foul personality, and lives with his parents. Usually a loner, but can be spotted with groups of 'bullies' in The Shire. He will judge everyone who passes by. And that's that about him.

I play on Peregrin. Also have some arts with these characters of mine.

Made a little friend today

It's all fun and games when people joke about Hungarians being obsessed with paprika but I'm here to tell you it is no exaggeration. We even use it as decoration inside our houses. When we need it it's right there hanging.

It's in (almost) every traditional Hungarian dish.

#the fact that it's even called 'paprika house' #i love hungary sometimes

For those that don't know the paprika house is located in Tihany and it's a grocery store. Here's a closer look inside

yes it's a grocery store for paprika.

I'm so sad this blew down in the high winds, but one of my neighbor's redwood trees had an albino branch!

Even the wood was lighter. So pretty.

Things I have learned:

There's apparently 5 or so different types of albinism that can occur in redwoods. If it's the *entire* plant, it's a bright white color. These can only survive if they are the offshoots of a mature tree. A truly albino plant cannot survive on its own. But redwoods are also known to have patches of albino foliage, like this branch here, and when it originates above the root stock it's yellow instead of white.

A lot of people were unaware that plants can exhibit forms of albinism, which makes sense. As I stated before, if they are not attached to a 'normal' plant, they cannot survive and so they're very *very* rare.

Lots of people think this is really cool, and it is! I've not seen an albino branch before, it makes me giddy.

If I do manage to propagate this branch, there's not guarantee that it will make more albino foliage aside from this one branch. I don't know if I'd be able to basically create a 'double' tree from it if I removed the top section if it became established, but that is the only way I could see it becoming anything other than just a single white branch on an otherwise normal tree. But I also don't know if redwoods are able to make side branches into new main trunks the way Carl The Apricot did.

@elodieunderglass i didn’t know this was a thing that could happen to trees!

Life is so exciting! And there are many beautiful ways to play with color morphs in plants.

Albinism in plants can be commercially desirable, and people like to seek out and collect variants. Like OP says - the ability to process energy is contained in the chlorophyll that makes plants green. Albino plants can’t process energy, so they can’t function, so you’ll only see partial albinism, but it’s still exciting! Partially albino monstera plants are still worth decent money, but other variegated plants like ivy are common.

Thank you so much for thinking of me!

I forget the exact number but in the Santa Cruz mountains there's a forest you can visit that has several albino redwoods, and you can visit at least one of them. (The locations of most are kept secret because people are awful and damage nice things sometimes)

They're really cool!

There was one in a gully in Big Sur, but during the awful forest fires we've had, it was badly damaged (I don't think it was the exact one pictured above but may have been, there's a few out there). It had been studied for decades. But- Redwoods respond to fire by upping their growth, and in the underbrush...

Baby albino redwoods!!!

I love when an OG post is already amazing, and then Science Tumblr pops out of the woods (pun intended) to help us all learn!

Somatic mutations out here making biodiversity even more beautiful 🧡💛💚💙💜

(i highkey want a monstera like that 😍)
