Apart from areas where users interact, there is encyclopedic content such as a "Silmarillion Survival Guide", a Tolkien biography, a repository of Tolkien's art, and a list of all canonical poems; as well as rare, real-life renditions of things in Middle-earth that are available, such as Elven home-decorations, action figures, and over five hundred recipes that are based on cultures of Middle-earth's races. In addition, The Council of Elrond even has a place for users' fan-fiction.
