Actually, ICE is way off base in describing the Nazgul. They were
called the black riders by none other than Professor Tolkien himself.
The portrayal in the recent movie is spot on with Professor Tolkien's
description which would make all of them look essentially identical
unless you saw their particular ring. That is to say, they look like
giant evil ninja jawas with swords...

lurking artist here;
the problem with drawing ringwraiths is that they are invisible
(right?) except for what they are wearing. This I.C.E. creature is
described by I.C.E. as;
Hoarmurath: Ice King. C-30, A-20, M-50 (70), St-30, Ch-910 "...a large
and stocky individual..." (Gorgoroth - ICE) Ovir Crown. +20 mage,
Neutral. (50) "His helm resembled the head of Ovir, the great white
Northern Bear." (Gorgoroth - ICE) Snow Hammer. +500 combat, Neutral.
(80) A war mattock forged of Dragon-slaying forged from clear laen and
inlaid with the horn from a drake. (Gorgoroth - ICE) Hue Changer. +500
combat, Neutral. (141) A spear made from dirwood.(Gorgoroth - ICE)

It's hard to make fuzzy cute polar bears look mean, but did I.C.E. take
that into consideration??? Nooooooo, "let's make it a polar bear.... "
: )
p.s. btw, I was one of the vocal people for FTF in Chicago or Minn. I
would be very happy if it were here in Chicago, but couldn't really
participate in the discussion about fee's, etc, since I wouldn't be
playing. Sorry if I contributed to a mis-representation of the whole
thing.........
