Before Peeg, there were other icons. Here are the original (as far as I can tell) icons from way back in the earliest days of the Plaza.

I posted these in the various kingdom archive threads, but to make them a part of the Icon collection, here they are as well. Most of them were saved, so if any of you happen to have a random old Kingdom icon, please post it. :winkkiss:

It has also been pointed out to me that Mordor (and only Mordor) had different Rank names for some of the 15 Ranks, so here they are. From Wayback capture dates, it looks like these rank names were used from late 2005 until Regions. I know some of you have complained about the lack of human ranks in Mordor, so here you go.

3. Troll
4. Southron

6. Orc
7. Wainrider

Oh my goodness I remember these. I also found this ancient version of the New Soul icon while reading through some lore threads from 2002 and this seemed like the best thread for it now that it exists!

Thanks for sharing the "New Soul" one and it has been uploaded into the OP. I had forgotten to grab it. And I must say, I am very thankful that it switched over to the lovely little candle. It's much more inviting.

You are a wonderful human being @Lirimaer! Thank you so much for finding that! Lovely old icons added to the OP.

Were there any new RAM icons in there for you?

Is Mordor's VI stilling missing? I wonder if Peeg has it? I made this one, maybe it can be used until we find the original one? Or not, its up to you guys really.*grin*

Thanks @drifa! I'll add it in with a special note. If you hadn't said you made it, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

And with that, it looks like the original Kingdom icons have all been found.
