Hey guys, here's the first chapter of Memories! This is also a little background for the Ancient Ones! Which I own! The chapter should be the second thing on here.
Disclaimer: I only own the Ancient ones and my OC
Ancient Ones
My LOTR stories contain Ancient Ones a group of OCs that can wield the Magic from the Inheritance Cycle. I take no credit for Christopher Palolinies created language. But anyway- Ancient Ones are people who are able to shapeshift into wolves and wield the Ancient Language. We are just going to pretend that the Ancient Ones have been here always and that so has the Ancient Language. There will also be mentions of Dragons and Dragon-Riders in my stories.
There are four 'houses' in the Ancient One's culture. each houses have roughly the same number of members and are given roughly the same amunt of territory, they however never really claim it as their own lland and just survive off it by hunting wildlife. They live usually just in small settlements that could easily move if they need to. There is however an actual castle of the Ancient Ones. It's loctaion reamins hidden from Hobbits, dwarves elves and men.

Aconites:
The Aconites are normally silver to an almost blue-gray with green to yellow eyes. They have actually had very few king/queens in power- for they feel no drive to become powerful. The most peacefully out of all the houses and rarely fight.
House color: royal blue
House Leader: Snowy Mountain
Territory:cärrock, Angmar, Eastern Angmar, Borderlands.
Immortality
Ancient Ones can live as long as elves. All they have to do, is in fact, is find their true name (look it up from Eragorn) and tell it to their beloved, if their beloved truly loves them back a spell will come over the two making them immortal- if the other is not already.
But since a true name has not been figured out by any Ancient One since the second age it is thought that they do not have true names anymore and there for cannot be immortal anymore.
Armor
An Ancient Ones armor is a consistency of chain mail that connects pieces of hardened and enchanted leather. The leather is normally the chest/back protection and is the color of the Ancient Ones house color.
On an Ancient One's shins is normally metal protectors. The chain mail connecting it to the chest plate (where it is normally loose to allow better movement) and then mail running down and in-between a wolf's paws, leaving spaces for the toes!
On the claws themselves is metal sheaths to shared their claws more and successfully tear into skin.
If an Ancient One has a helmet it would have earholes and protect the top of the muzzle.
The Ancient One's armor can in-fact change forms with it's owner so they can fight freely in either form.
