Haradrim, is one of the stronger of the Mordor Family guilds, and is known to most members of Alpha
server as TPFS. Haradrim members have fought in many conflicts, and prides themselves on being
some of the most experienced players on the alpha server.
The name Haradrim comes from the Tolkien series Lord of The Rings, and, since Tolkien's Haradrim is
in fact evil, the guild's roleplay incorporates this.
Haradrim was part of and the second biggest guild in the Mordor_family.

Mordor 'take over'
After Hopalong23 joined UCorp to test loyalty of his members, Paestero interpeted this as him leaving.
Foreseeing problems with thise move, Paestero quickly send 2-3 veterans to TPFS.
After a short while forcing the temporary GM of TPFS to give over control to Ren Nazgul.
When this was completed, Mordor took over command of TPFS and began to reform it with Cox and Ren Nazgul under the "Haradrim" name.
Some bad blood rose from this 'hostile' take over, but was eventually talked out with HopAlong23.

Creation and Pact; A Letter from Harad]
"The horns and war Mûmakil roar! The Men of Harad unite as one and
seek Gondorian and Hobbit blood. A renewed Pact between Harad and
Orc is announced here to bring a new member into the Family of MORDOR."
On this day October 10th of the Fourth Age
"Throw yourself in next time and rid us of your stupidity!" -Gandalf
The words of an enemy Wizard echo the feelings of many slayed Penguins on the battlefield.
I am standing in this field to pick up the wounded and help usher a rebirth.

The Haradrim Era: Forum post of support
With the fall of a family member of Mordor (TPFS) we must fill this void. Cox officially
announces Haradrim will fill this void. The goal is to grow as a support to the MORDOR Family
as the guild, TPFS, was officially intended to be. This will take time and effort but we hope
with the support of our close allies that this will come true. Members that fled in panic are
welcome to come back. We will do our best to setup a capable leadership to lead Haradrim to a
better future. Until the membership and command structure has been stabilized, Balrog Guards
will be in rotation to help train the new Horde.
Leaders will Lead; Members will follow. No member will be given up to the wolves to save the
group. We are one team that will stand up to anything and everything together.
Early Days
In the early days, Haradrim was growing. Eventually, Haradrim grew twice in size and rose up in the ranks. With Cox's leadership, it really turned Haradrim into a powerful guild on the Alpha Server. The guild was rapidly growing in size. In the month of December of 2008, NPO and Mordor had a war. Mordor gave NPO several large injuries, however the war stalled when CoRM entered on behalf of NPO. Eventually this conflict erupted into a mini-Server War between Mordor, BORG, UCorp, and others against Exodus, WG (CoRM), and others. Haradrim had no choice but to merge in with their Family Guild, Mordor, and defend against these foes. In the end, there was a peace because WG reformed into CoRM and tried to implement it's pact with 13th. In the end, 13th brokered a white peace amongst the guilds, and the war ended.
Stability and Growth
Acceptance and Contributions of late 08
Haradrim in late 2008 fought many small battles within the new galaxies with new players. Also
members were trained in different Mordor tactics and battlegroup styles. When the conflict with
Exodus appeared all of Haradrim went to Mordor or ABD for the war. Many Harad Mumak died in the
serves of the Dark Lord.
Temporary Dissolution
On January 1st 2009, The Pirate King, Cox, ordered Haradrim in full dissolution during the war
with Exodus, and merged into Mordor and ABD. This was done in private and extremely swiftly.
Re-Emergence
After the war with Exodus, Haradrim was reformed by Cox. A couple days after he finished, he gave command to Olde Delaware,
and went back to Mordor, where he subsequently became Dark Lord. Now under the leadership of Olde Delaware and Diplomat Mrg666,
Haradrim looks forward to a new age.
