GM'S CHEAT SHEET


"Once upon a time (my crest has long since fallen), I had a mind to make a body of more or less connected legend... I would draw some of the great tales in fullness, and leave many only placed in the scheme, and sketched. The cycles should be linked to a majestic whole, and yet leave scope for other minds and hands, wielding paint and music and drama."
J.R.R. Tolkien - Letters: 144-145, 1951

“It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

It is the year 3016 of the Third Age. The kings have been gone for more than a thousand years. It has been more than two hundred and fifty years since Bullroarer Took defeated the Great Goblin at the Battle of Greenfields and seventy-five years since that queer Mr. Bilbo Baggins came back from foreign parts with his pockets stuffed full of gold and his head stuffed full of elvish nonsense and fifteen years since the extraordinary birthday party when he and the wizard Gandalf disappeared, seemingly for good. In the Shire, all has been blessedly free of such doings ever since.

Beyond the Shire, Eriador is changing. Wolves have come down from the hills in great numbers, harrying the small communities spread across what was once the kingdom of Arnor. Trade, which once ran along the Dwarf Road from Ered Luin to the Misty Mountains and along the Greenway from Bree and the Shire into the distant south, is now almost completely curtailed. Rumors abound of trolls and walking trees, of goblins from the mountains and strangers upon the roads
