Half-Trolls

The Half-Trolls of Perdorogwaith are a fierce race created by Sauron that dwell in the northeastern parts of Far Harad; they have seen many rulers, and even more anarchy.

## **History**

The Half-Trolls were founded after the First King of the High-Elves, Glaerdir left the High Elves and founded the Half-Trolls on February 12th 2015. Sadly, he would almost immediately vanished, and in April 2015 Scrubor arrived with a small force of players and proclaimed himself the Torogost. Following the arrival of Demon\_26 in Perdorogwaith, Scrubor resigned as ruler and named him the Torogost in early May.

On May 30th 2015, Scrubor declared the Half-Trolls to be a communist state without the approval of his Demon\_26. When Demon learned of this, he grew furious and banished Scrubor from the land of Perdorogwaith. Furious, Scrubor and his followers declared rebellion and waged a civil war against Demon. Despite this, Demon continued to lead the Half-Trolls well, with them even joining the New Empire of Harad. Following the demise of the New Empire’s ruler, Karsham, Demon attempted to claim the throne, but was forced to withdraw.

Following the founding of the Astrasi Empire on July 31st 2015, the Half-Trolls joined it, further cementing his position against Scrubor. At last, tired of the constant fighting, Scrubor finally departed Perdorogwaith for Mordor on January 2nd 2016. Immediately following this event, the Astrasi Empire removed Demon as ruler due to inactivity, as the throne was no longer at risk of falling into Scrubor’s hands. Lord\_Gil\_Galad, ruler of a group known as the Eastern Folk headquarted in the Tundra and Taiga, was named the ruler of the Half-Trolls. He was banned within a month and the region fell into chaos.

After a period of anarchy in Perdogwaith, a Half-Troll known as Yoeki rose to power with the support of the Astrasi Empire. She was soon convinced by Khaganate to switch sides and join the Khaganate, but was convinced to return to the Empire. Yoeki ruled for a short time after rejoining the Empire, but disappeared like her predecessors. This caused the Empire to name Dolgukhor, the ruler of Umbar to the position as leader of the Half-Trolls until a new leader could be found on July 28th 2016.

A replacement to Dulgukhor was found in the form of Moon\_Planet in December 2016. She, however, vanished as fast as she had arrived, and General\_Galdalf was named the Torogost on October 1st 2017. General quickly summoned Half-Trolls from all across Perdorogwaith, and prepared for the huge project of building Tol Torog, before leaving the faction and making Jules\_Mannus the Great Chieftain in December 2017.

Many of the Half-Trolls who Gandalf had gathered grew discouraged and left Perdorogwaith, leaving Jules with little to work with. Despite this, he started the construction of Tol Torog, and left the Astrasi Empire in April 2018.  He eventually grew discouraged and made the former Moredain leader, Aglarion\_II, the King of the Half-Trolls on July 25th 2018. He was soon banned, however, and Zesheir took control on October 21st 2018. Zesheir requested permission to rejoin the Empire, and his request was granted on December 19th 2018, beginning an age of regrowth for Perdorogwaith.

Zesheir chose to name the Angmar leader at the time, Jimeck, the new ruler on April 10th 2019. Jimeck, however, made Lord\_Funyun the Torogost on May 28th 2019. After issues with traitors in his own ranks he chose to return leadership back to Zesheir.

On the 20th of March 2020, a contributing player named KingBob123 chose to incite a rebellion against Zesheir for being a stagnant leader. Zesheir left the Astrasi Empire and turned to his friends in Mordor for support. Mordor intervention resulted in the consistent annihilation of rebels whom would soon surrender, leaving Perdorogwaith.

On April 27th 2020, Zesheir would step down as Torogost of Perdorogwaith, and Rnegade of Mordor took his place as the new leader of the Half-Troll faction with plans to annex the land as a vassal for Mordor, leading to further unrest among the rebels who were exiled to the Volcanic Islands to the South of Perdorogwaith. On July 13th, 2020, Rnegade departed Perdorogwaith for Mordor and named CaptainCatCrunch, a former rebel which was a member of Southern Half-Trolls, became Torogost and dissolved his friends back into the faction before becoming inactive. On 19th of June 2020, Kubrikus claimed the leadership of both the Southern Half-Trolls and Half-Trolls of Perdorogwaith uncontested. As a result of the subsequent unification of both sides, the Half-Trolls annexed the Volcanic Islands. The Half-Trolls joined the Alliance of the Rising Sun with the rest of Harad, which would fall apart not long after.

KingBob123 was later chosen through an election as the first King of the Kingdom of Half-Trolls. Due to KingBob123 getting banned on the 8th of October 2020, the leadership of the faction was now in the hands of Shadowejm, who subsequently gave it back to Kubrikus on October 30th, 2020. On September 10th, 2020, the city Hardorogost began construction and was completed on the 12th of December 2020. The Half-Trolls joined the Alliance of the Rising Sun with the rest of Harad.

Regretful of the current arrangement with Mordor's occupation over the northern island of Tol Torog and unwillinging to join the Shadow Confederacy, the Half-Trolls declared war on Mordor to reclaim their land. This would result in the Taurethrim-Mordor War, where they were joined by their Haradric allies in an attempt to establish Haradric sovereignty in Harad. Following an utter defeat for the Half-Trolls on July 31st, 2021, peace was made between both sides. The leader of Mordor at the time, Crysite, eventually gave up Tol Torog on his own accord and returned the land back to the Half-Trolls on August 8th, 2021.

On the 30th of August, the Half-Trolls, with the support of their Haradric allies, declared war on Dol Amroth in attempt to make money from war reparations and conquer territory for their ally Umbar. Exactly one month later, the war was ended in a white peace in order to focus on the recently declared Gondor - Near Harad war of conquest.

Shadowejm resumed leadership before abdicating to Noxen on April 10th, 2022. Relations with Mordor gradually improved and Noxen stepped down as the leader of the Half-Trolls for Shakespeare\_Dano, who subsequently named Crysite as the new Torogost on July 31st, 2022. The Half-Trolls joined Greater Mordor on July 26th, 2022, serving Sauron and further unifying all of evil.
