Rumors of lost treasure brought adventurous Men back into the region surrounding Lake Evendim, where the ruins of Ann�minas and the tombs of the Kings of Arnor remain. These treasure-hunters established a town and trading post in the northern reaches of those lands, amongst the ruins of the old fortress of Ost Forod. Here they were content to scavenge for trinkets unearthed by time and weather, hunt the great Harts of the North, and trade with the Lossoth, the strange and sometimes dangerous Snowmen of Forochel.
In these latter days, a less savory element has entered the ranks of the Men of Ost Forod: brigands and tomb-robbers who plunder the very graves of the D�nedain themselves. Though the Men of Ost Forod have chosen an arbiter from among their ranks to administer some form of law and justice, he can do little to stem the swelling tide of lawless men.
Ost Forod is one of many sites created by Turbine for The Lord of the Rings Online�: Shadows of Angmar�, using the little-mentioned region around Lake Evendim, the former seat of power of the kingdom of Arnor. Players of LOTRO will visit this location often while seeking adventure in Evendim.
