Middle-Earth Quest is a Bluesky labeler that randomly assigns you a role in Tolkien's world. You might become a Hobbit of the Shire, an Orc of Mordor, an Elf of Rivendell, or one of dozens of other fates. Your role is displayed on your profile as a label — visible to all other players who have subscribed.
Roles are weighted by rarity. Common folk like Men of Gondor and Orcs of Mordor appear often. Rarer roles like Rangers, Elves, and Shieldmaidens are harder to come by. And the rarest of all — Wizards, Nazgûl, and Leadership roles — are limited in number across all of Middle-earth.
