Command: serve
Sauron's forces are multiplying and spreading throughout
the lands. His will is to dominate everything, and to do
so he gathers strength into his armies.
There are those among the races that call themselves 'free'
that realize the wisdom and power and glory of Sauron's
rule, and the order it would bring. To Sauron they have
pledged to serve faithfully, and the Free Races call them
traitors.
The servants of Sauron can enter his lands, interact with
his other servants, and as an agent of Sauron can takeover
and claim battlepoints and regions for their lord.
However, it is a fact that many of Sauron's other servants,
orcs and other beasts, still bear ill-will towards the
pale races of men, the stumpy dwarves, and those elves
that were poisoned by the light. Despite dedicating
their service to a common lord, Sauron, not all of
Sauron's servants will honor this pledge and some may
refuse such dealings.
Serving Sauron is not without risk. To the Free Races
they will be regarded as traitors: their presence in
free lands will be reported by the scouts as an enemy, and
the patrols will not hesitate to attack and kill on
sight any traitors which are discovered. Most towns
will refuse entry, most shops will refuse to do business
and entry to the Western lands are forbidden. To the
servant of Sauron, the towns and cities of the free
world are dead.

To become a servant of Sauron, you must seek one of his
Lieutenants, such as Gothmog on the Pelennor Fields,
and "serve sauron". Do not make this decision lightly,
for Sauron will not release you from his service until you
have served a minimum of 1 day of age.
In order to pledge to the dark side, you must be of at
least level 10 and have at least 2 days of age.
To request release from Sauron's service, return to the
Lieutenant and "serve no more". Note that in this case,
Sauron will not welcome you back to servitude until you
have aged one more day.
Servants of Sauron that harm friends of Mordor risk being
tagged as a 'traitor' and as such being chased by other
servants without mercy. Traitors are still subject to
the 1 day of age limit of releasing from Sauron's service.
