About the adventure
A Lord of the Rings 5E Campaign (Levels 1–12) The beacons are dark. The mountains are silent. Gondor’s warning fires have gone out—one by one—and with them, the last threads of unity in the West. You are not kings, nor great captains. You are wanderers, scholars, smiths, and sentinels—called quietly to a mission the world has forgotten. Seven ancient beacon towers once lit the spine of the White Mountains, signaling war and peace between distant realms. Now, their fires are cold, their ruins infested, their histories nearly lost. But the Steward of Gondor has sent a whisper across the land. Rekindle the beacons. Restore the light. Prepare for what is coming. 🎯 What This Campaign Is: 🔸 A level 1–12 journey across mountains, ruins, haunted towers, and ancient wilds. 🔸 A campaign of heroic restoration—rebuilding what was lost, facing the ghosts of the past, and reigniting hope. 🔸 A low magic, high myth setting where choices matter, darkness whispers, and the smallest people can change the course of the future. 🔸 A Tolkien-inspired world, but you do not need to know any lore to play. All the knowledge you need will unfold at the table. 🧭 What You’ll Do: 🔹 Travel across the White Mountains, discovering forgotten towers, long-lost rituals, and enemies old and new. 🔹 Face challenges of diplomacy, wilderness, battle, and legacy. 🔹 Choose whether to fight for Gondor’s future, or let the old world burn and shape something new from its ashes. 🕯️ What Makes It Special: ✴️ Each major milestone ties to relighting one of the Seven Beacons. ✴️ Your party will uncover buried secrets, sacred duties, and ancient oaths that test more than just your swords. ✴️ You decide what the fire means: war, unity, defiance—or rebirth. 🧙 Character Creation: 🪶 Use the Lord of the Rings 5E system (Adventures in Middle-earth). 🪶 Be a ranger, bard, exile, healer, dwarf, elf, hobbit, or man—whatever calls to you. 🪶 Focus on character ideals, history, and values. Who are you, and why do you answer the call? This is a campaign about light in the dark, the weight of legacy, and the strength of chosen bonds. Will you carry the flame? Or will the mountains remain silent forever?

Creating your character
🔸 Each player will create a Level 1 character—a brave soul among the Free Folk chosen to help rekindle Gondor’s ancient beacons. 🔹 No extensive knowledge of Lord of the Rings is required. The story and world will unfold naturally, and all the support you need will be provided. 🔸 Choose your character from among the Free Folk of Middle-earth, including: 🛡️ Men of Gondor 🌾 Riders of Rohan 🌲 Woodmen of Wilderland 🗻 Dwarves of the Lonely Mountain 🍃 Elves of Mirkwood 📜 Dúnedain of the North 🍄 Hobbits of the Shire 🔥 Men of the Lake 🔹 While preparing characters ahead of time is optional, guidance, lore summaries, and templates will be shared in our Discord to make the process smooth and welcoming. 🔸 During our pre-session discussions, we’ll flesh out your hero’s name, appearance, unique traits, and goals to ensure your character fits seamlessly into the unfolding tale.

Safety
How Moses creates a safe table
Themes such as violence, psychological elements, and mature content may be present but will be tailored to your comfort levels. Certain subjects like sexual assault, harm to children, and harm to domestic animals will never be explicitly described in our games. During our first session, we'll discuss safety tools and content preferences. I adhere to a strict policy against discrimination (sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc.) and aim to create a respectful and safe environment for all players. Feel free to reach out with any concerns or requests!
