RECRUITING FOR THIS GAME IS CLOSED. Good Luck. Smaug has been defeated, the Battle of Five Armies has
been won, and Bilbo has returned to the Shire. But much danger still
remains, and from the Orc-holds of the mountains to the dark and corrupt
depths of Mirkwood a darkness waits, recovering its strength, laying
its plans, and slowly extending its shadow…
The One Ring Roleplaying Game is based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
Middle-earth is a huge place, stretching thousands of
miles from the Lonely Mountain in the north to Far Harad in the south,
and beyond. It’s an ancient land too, with a richly detailed history
going back thousands of years to the dawn of the First Age.
The One Ring Roleplaying Game is set in a very particular place, The Wilderland, 5 years after the Battle of the Five Armies.
This land is filled with locations from the novels:
Mirkwood, Thranduil’s Halls, Lake-town, Erebor, the Lonely Mountain, Dol
Guldur. All are locations ripe for exploration and adventure. Its also
home to some of the characters from the novels too, from Radagast the
Brown and the Elvenking Thranduil to King Bard of Dale and King Dáin of
Erebor.
It's the land where the Eagles and Beorn live, where
Smaug used to dwell, and where the forest of Mirkwood lies. Tolkien
introduces it in The Hobbit, and then does not tell much about it until
the events told in The Lord of the Rings.
This leaves almost 70 years of ‘history’ to be filled
by the players of The One Ring with their own heroic deeds, bridging
this gap of lost years between the Hobbit, and the War of the Ring to
life, where you really feel like you are participating in a missing
novel, starring your characters as the felllowship that was, BEFORE the
Felllowship of the Ring.
Welcome to Middle Earth! * * * * I'm the DM for this game, we're looking for one or two more players to add to a Role-play heavy, Narrative-heavy (meaning you describe your characters actions in detail) One Ring campaign set just after The Hobbit, and running 70 years game time )A scenario covers a year, more or less) until the events of the War of the Ring. We are seeking to add mature, serious role players who can get along as a member of adventuring party / team. If you are not familiar with the system, we can teach you. I do not have rule books to spare, and do not advocate sharing of PDFs illegally.
