After months of work on it on and off, I finally finished my Adar fanart 💕

First time making paper cuttings. Took around 30 hours to conceptualise, sketch, plan and cut.

Loved making it. #Adar and his #Uruks are 👌🏻

Hair Cutting (Uruk/Orc Headcanons SoW)

Was talking to @space-arsonist about this and thought to bring it up here too

xxx

Once, hair cutting wasn't always a source of shame or grief for uruks and orcs alike. It was a sign of change and growth, be it integrating into new clans, reaching new life milestones, or for ceremonial purposes.

As life became harsher for the lot of them, it became more and more difficult for uruks and orcs to even grow healthy hair to grow out, much less cut. Having a healthy head of hair meant that you had resources, and if that hair was cut, it was due to outside influence and not due to individual choice.

Slaves would have their heads shaved regardless of the amount of hair they had or didn't have, hair would be cut for uruks or orcs deemed traitorous or banished from their clans, hair (and/or scalps) are even a common trophy taken by victorious warriors.

If it's something that can be taken away, it can and will be in Mordor for one reason or another.

(My personal OCs and their hair(cuts) under the cut)

Hûra

- Both of his clans cut his hair at various times during his youth. It was done as a form of humiliation and control along with a means to make money, as Hûra’s hair was strong enough to both string bows and to be used as nearly unbreakable ties and/or as a garroting wire.

- His hair was cut to nearly ear-length by Khrosh.

- He cut a few locks of his hair off with Takra when they officially became blood brothers.

- He cut some of his hair when Gogat officially became his son, and he did it again when Dûsh, Mâku, Lûga and Grisha joined the family too (he made charms woven with his family’s hair).

- He cut his hair to his elbows after the war ended and never cut it again.

Takra

- Her hair was cut off several times by superior Uruks at her outposts when she was very young.

- It was cut once by her Marauder captain when she first sold herself to him.

- It’s been cut numerous times by her “clients”, usually resulting in her hair being short and choppy most of the time.

- She cut it when Hûra reunited with her very short so it would grow back both healthy and at the same length.

- She cut a few locks when she became blood brothers with Hûra.

- She cut it when her children came into her life (Hûra created charms with her hair as well).

- She cut her hair short when Gogat returned from prison and regrew it alongside her sons and only ever cut it to trim dead ends off afterwards.

Mâku

- His hair was long straight out of the vat (think nearly to his elbows) so his Dark clan cut it to just above his shoulders after recruiting him. He’s like his father and it grew back extraordinarily quickly every time it was cut.

- He cut it when he broke away from his clan.

- He cut several locks off when he became a part of his family.

- He cut his hair with his father at the end of the war, back to his elbows like when he was a pup.

- He cut a few locks off when his parents died and placed the hair with them when they were cremated/buried and did the same when his brothers and sister passed.

Pushkrimp

- His hair was cut when nearly to his ears when he was banished from his clan. It was done specifically to cut the clan braids from his hair.

- Pushkrimp periodically had breakdowns after drinking where he would chop his hair off sloppily and rarely tidied it up after the fact.

- He cut his hair when he vowed to stop drinking, cutting as short as the day he was banished.

- Pushkrimp cut a few locks when he became blood brothers with Horza.

- He cut a few locks when he reunited with Zog and learned of Zunn’s existence.

Norûk

- His hair was long out of the vat (past his shoulder) and it was cut choppily short up to his ears when he was sent off.

- Ar-Beka cut it after he adopted Norûk, as it was matted and unmanageable and he refused to bathe for many months due to his fear of water.

- He cut a few locks and gave them to Ay-Yaruk when he went off to study in the West.

- He cut a few locks when he married.

- He cut a few locks as he was in his twilight years and gave them to his father, Zunn, his children and his brother.

Khrosh

- He’s only cut it once: when he made a mockery of the charms that Hûra would make his family out of their hair. He wove a few locks of his hair with the hair he cut from Hûra’s head.

Grishnâkh

- He kept his hair relatively short most of his life for hygiene reasons.

- It grew long when he was recovering from being attack by a caragor but again cut it short, above his shoulders.

Horza

- Had hair past his elbows when he was enslaved.

- Had his hair shorn off while a slave.

- It always tried to grow back but it was patchy due to poor conditions.

- Never kept his head shaved in spite of his poor hair condition as a slave, as he couldn’t bare the thought of doing it himself.

- Only allowed it to be cut twice, the first when with the Monks so it could grow back healthy.

- The second was when he became blood brothers with Pushkrimp.

Life is Strange/Lord of the Rings crossover fanfic. Basically Max and Chloe go to Middle-Earth and back again.

While this crossover might seem eclectic, I think there are some common themes between LiS and LotR. Ordinary people faced with impossible situations. The power of love and friendship allowing people to endure untold hardships. Destiny and what should people do when confronted with it. "The smallest person changing the course of the future".

If you don't like crossovers in general or fantasy in particular, consider reading the beginning of chapter one and the entire chapter four, which take place before Max and Chloe leave their universe and after they come back respectively. That way it becomes a short story about Max's and Chloe's visit to Away. But then you'd miss the part where I describe how Max's and Chloe's engagement rings look like (how could I write a crossover with the Lord of the RINGS and not touch upon this subject), as well as one particularly sappy and drawn-out declaration of love made by Chloe before they go into battle.

If you think that David doesn't deserve Chloe's forgiveness for his "tough love", my answer is - nobody ever deserves forgiveness. It's always something better than we deserve. I think Chloe is a kind-hearted person. She was able to almost immediately forgive Max. I imagine she would also forgive David. And I find the prospect of Chloe and David being reconciled much more appealing than Chloe hating him for the rest of her life, even if she has legitimate reasons for doing so.

While my nickname on AO3 might suggest I hold extremely unorthodox views on Middle-Earth, I honestly don't think what I wrote is incompatible with what we know about the world of LotR. I don't think what I wrote is a complete retelling, like "the Last Ringbearer". In my mind, I just provided a different perspective on the events we already knew about.

The belief that death is a divine gift and rejecting it is wrong, which is held by the "good guys" of LotR, allowed for some nice contrast and conflict with Max's life philosophy, which seems to be all about saving people who are "destined" to die, like Chloe and Tristan.

I want to immerse my body in this track from head to toe. I want it to invade my cells and transform them. I want to feel it’s vibrations inside my very soul.

Intense much?

I made a playlist for my favorite new character in The Rings of Power. The leader of the uruks, Adar.

All the songs fit aspects of this complex and compelling character.

The art is by the amazingly talented @alifelongpassed.

In Rings of Power, there's an uruk that we call "Fabio." That's because Jed Brophy, who played him, gave the character that nickname based on his long wig for the role.

This is Fabio in Episode 6: "Udûn." Isn't he sweet? And look at that fabulous hair.

Anyhow, "Fabio" is a great name but it doesn't fit super well as an uruk name. So, I naturally tried to translate it into Black Speech.

According to almost all sources that I could find, the name Fabio is a modern Italian name that can be traced back to a Roman patrician family by the name of "Fabius." Allegedly, their name is derived from the Latin word "faba", which means "1) bean (from a plant); 2) a bead which resembles a bean or seed."

Fabio is most commonly translated to mean "bean farmer," but fan-constructed Black Speech does not have a word for farmer and the original meaning is just "bean." So, I have decided to call this uruk "Grosh" in my fic, which literally means "bean" in the Land of Shadow (LOS) dictionary.

TLDR: 'Fabio' can be translated to 'Grosh,' if you want a more Black Speech sounding name.
