Monsters play : how is it?

I wanted to know if once you can play an Uruk you can travel with that monster around the whole world or you must stay in a certain area, which can be boring to wait for players to kill them. I also would like to know if devs plan to allow creation of evil characters that could take armors or any item they could use and with freedom to attack cities and such.
Blade with whom i have lived, blade with whom I now die. Serve right and justice one last time. Seek one last heart of evil. Still one last life of pain. Cut well old friend. Then farewell!

I find monster play starting to heat up with more freeps starting to enter Ettenmoors. There's still some stuff to have a little fun with when there's no freeps, but I think it's an area that shows some good potential. I could only hope that in a month or so when there are more kinships wanting to raid that some hardcore raid kinships start organizing their own creep raid groups to help repel others. If kinships do it right they could schedule certain days for certain kinships to attack while others get their creeps there to repel.
If you've never played or think you can jump right into it and PvP well you need to realize there's a number of quests that you need to do with your creep, a number of destiny points to get, and a bit of money to obtain to be able to stock up on the potions and maggoty meat. There are also ranks so at rank 0 with no freep kills, you will get owned out alone....actually even with higher ranks you will likely get owned out alone, but we will see. Even in groups you can get owned. At rank 0 there's still a number of group quests and keep raids you can have success in. I doubt they will allow for armour and stuff, you basically can improve your armour and stats as a creep by destiny points and gaining rank. Get destiny points by killing stuff and doing quests. Get rank by killing freeps. There are 5 keeps (not really cities) that freeps and creeps can battle over. Whichever side killed the captain-general last gets their NPCs to control the keep.
You can play any/all of the 5 monster types from your 1 character. The warleader is a weak healer. The blackarrow is a hunter type. The reaver is a champion type. The warg is a burglar type (stealth anyway). The spidey I haven't played yet but can root.
