  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Age: unknown(I am not sure on the way Uruk Hai are grown/bred/spawned, or how long it takes for them to mature, based on the books.)

Height: 6'9''

Weight: 244 lbs

Race: Uruk Hai

Appearance: Krulkodar is a tall and very imposing Uruk. He has the flat nose long black hair and sharp teeth that are characteristic of his race. Not to mention, he is incredibly strong, like many of the new Uruk Hai. His hair is a tad smoother and better kept than most Uruks, and his yellow-tinted eyes burn with something that is most odd and unsettling to his comrades. Intelligence. Wisdom. His skin is a mottled gray, and a white handprint emblazons his face, shield, helmet, and the chest of his breastplate.

Clothing/Armor/weapons: He wears the standard-issue plate armor manufactured in the foundries beneath Isengard, with a few modifications. He wears leathers and rough cloth, as opposed to chainmail, and no footwear, with the exception of the foot-bindings he keeps for cold weather. He wears spiked gauntlets, and wears a heavy Uruk Hai Scout's bow on his back. He also carries a long Uruk Hai standard issue scimitar, and the standard issue bladed shield.


Personality: Krulkodar lives up to his name, which means Dragon in the tongue of Mordor. He is powerful and skilled as a warrior, but also an adept leader and tactician. By human standards, he is worthy of being called intelligent. By orcish standards, even Uruk Hai, he is a genius. But with the great intellect behind his piercing eyes also burns characteristic orcish cruelty, and Uruk Hai bravado. He takes pleasure in killing, the adrenaline rushes, the feeling of being drenched in an enemy's blood. He enjoys combat just as much as any other Uruk, but he knows how to restrain himself, and when to be patient and efficient.

As a leader, it is not uncommon for Krulkodar to make an example of rebellious Orcs and Uruk Hai, while making an effort to please the others. He knows full well the superiority of a happy army over a weary and disgruntled one, and is not afraid to slow down to rest his wargs and riders, or let his men hunt, or kill the least cooperative to feed the loyal.

As a tactician, Krulkodar enjoys implementing diversions, ambushes, hit and run strikes, and complicated pincer and division maneuvers. The greatest flaw to his planning is that he relies on Orcs and Uruk Hai to follow through on their parts in his strategies, which Orcish bloodlust tends to hinder. On occasion, he has shot Orcs out of frustration when they fall out of position and begin to act at liesure, ignoring his commands.


History: Krulkodar was born in Isengard's Uruk Pits, but he is no ordinary Uruk. He was bred and trained to exhibit beneficial human traits, as all Uruk Hai were. Bravery, the ability to march day and night, enthusiasm... but Krulkodar shows more, without losing any good Orcish qualities. With his bloodlust was instilled the intelligence to better kill an enemy, resulting in more blood and corpses, and more friendlies to revel in it. He was, essentially, born to lead.

Uruks of Krulkodar's prowess were not well suited for being thrown in droves at Rohirrim defenses, however. That is why Krulkodar was appointed to command groups of scouts and Warg Raiders. He could better command the highly experimental Uruk Hai when there were less of them to deal with, and the freedom of choosing his methods that came with the open plains in the Gap of Rohan.
