Well well, I've found my way back to this place thanks to Esty's xanga site.

You know, the question you pose, Foley, is a toughy, and it sort of reveals to me that this an entire rpg may be based on a misconception of the Ulfings as more wholesome folk than Tolkien wrote them to be.

Because they would have to be more orcish by nature to want to turncoat, unless they were really stupid instead and believed the lies of Morgoth. Either way, there's a major issue with how secretive Uldor and the other brothers have been, and I frankly don't know how to resolve it; unless it has to do with sheer Machiavellian threat on the part of the Ulfing lords..... ????
