Into the Wild 101 with Radagast the Brown

Posted Feb 15, 2007 at 8:38PM by QJ Staff Listed in: Titles, Previews Tags: J.R.R. Tolkien, Peter Jackson, Turbine Inc.

You've got Gandalf the Grey and Saruman the White. Ever wondered what the other wizards looked like? In LOTRO: Shadows of Angmar, you better expect to bump into some of the characters we've read about in J.R.R. Tolkien's books or seen in Peter Jackson's movies. However, for someone as elusive as Radagast the Brown, better not be surprised if he suddenly pops up in front of you as you travel around the wilderness.

This wizard might seem like a simple old man, but he's powerful indeed (if you consider "talking to animals" powerful, then yeah!). He's among the ranks of Gandalf and Saruman. Radagast is only mentioned in passing in the books and his role in the War of the Ring is ever-so mysterious. So what's he doing around Eriador, where he's supposedly been seen quite a lot, recently?

Radagast the Brown keeps his matters to himself, but that doesn't mean he's one of the bad guys. His intentions (whatever they are) are always for the good and his actions are always for the betterment of the good people of Middle-earth. Or at least, the beasts and creatures of the good people of Middle-earth, that is.

In any case, if you do bump into him, don't be alarmed. He's still wise and can give you much information about the wilderness and its creatures.
