The Mathom Society

The Mathom Society is a reputation faction located in Michel Delving, in the Shire.

The Hobbits of the Shire enjoy many fine leisure activities when they are not so busy eating or growing food. One such activity is the collection of mathoms, items that hobbits have no particular use for but hold onto anyway.

The Mathom Society is a group of hobbits dedicated to the gathering of such items, and they scour the countryside in search of new items to add to their collection, when they aren't busy planning a mathom society dinner that is!
