Maybe the glow terrorizes evil creatures (especially orcs) as well; that would be likely Terror (only against servants of the Dark Lord). Or maybe the True Faith (Turning) in your templates apply only to those that have the Light of Aman in their eyes . . . Hope this helps, M.

Re: Lord of the Rings Elven Racial Template
But if it is an actual glow they have, and they cannot turn it off, it would make it harder for them to hide and such...

I Interpret the light of Aman as being too faint to see unless you know what to look for, and even the only if the Elf in question wants to be seen. In short, a poetic metaphor; unrealistic but very beautiful and inspiring. I'd wouldn't take it very literally. By the way, Gavynn: great work with all the templates. Do you have acess to ICE's Middle-Earth Role Playing game? It has descriptions and racial rules for all the races and sub-races of elves, humans and orcs. They should be very easy to convert to GURPS. I don't have my book with me at the moment, so I can't give you specific details, but if you are serious about converting LOTR to GURPS and can find a cheap one at eBay, it would help you a lot. And the (very generic and rules-light) supplements are just beautiful. Get as many as you can ;-) Cheers, M.

My intention is basically to put together a LotR supplement to run my games - a trilogy (of course) that I am going to write up and put online as well (as a GM document). The game will start during the WotR time, and the second installment will start in the Fourth Age. Since you are familiar with MERP, have you read Palantir Quest? That is going to be the second part of my trilogy, but I am going to expensively rewrite it to be more Tolkien and less D&D like I felt it strayed at more than a few points.
