Tol Ascarnen is the most contested keep in the Ettenmoors, holding a central position in that wild land. When the Free Peoples control the keep, the scouts of the Iron Crown harry the defenders until stronger forces can arrive to lay siege.

Among the harriers is a soldier named Paashum. This sniveling Orc is concerned with attracting his superiors’ attention to better his position, and he often engages in unnecessarily risky actions. However, like many Orcs, he is a coward at heart and recruits others to perform his outrageous tasks.

In The Lord of the Rings Online, players and monster-players alike will encounter the soldier Paashum. Monster players receive quests to harry the forces at Tol Ascarnen from Paashum, while players of the Free Peoples may run across him at his encampment outside Tol Ascarnen.
