Sponsored.  Long to explore the lone-lands of Eriador? Ruins of the Lost Realm is the first expansion for the award-winning second edition of The One Ring RPG based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien.

In the westlands of Eriador, between the Misty Mountains and the Mountains of Lune, the Hobbits found both Men and Elves.  Indeed, a remnant still dwelt there of the Dúnedain, the kings of Men that came over the Sea out of Westernesse; but they were dwindling fast and the lands of their North Kingdom were falling far and wide into waste.  A region often described as deserted becomes a crucible for adventure.

Ruins of the Lost Realm is a beautifully illustrated 120-page hardcover volume.  Contents:

  • Chapter 1: Fog Over Eriador offers a description of the regions that once were part of the kingdom of Arnor, with a focus on the city of Tharbad.
  • Chapter 2: A Gathering Storm provides the Loremaster with a set of narrative elements aimed at building a possible future for the land of Eriador as a whole, including the description of many looming threats, Loremaster characters and their agendas.
  • Chapter 3: Landmarks adds twelve sites of interest in the style of the one presented in the core volume.  These locations depict both "historical" sites mentioned in The Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit, and others that have been created specifically for the game.

The One Ring roleplaying game is based on The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, two extraordinary works of fiction by the beloved author and respected academic, John Ronald Reuel Tolkien.  With these books, Tolkien introduced readers to his greatest creation, the world of Middle-earth, a mythic land from a remote past.

With The One Ring, Middle-earth is yours to explore — you will travel the land searching for clues about the return of the Shadow, and have the chance to play a part in the struggle against the Enemy…

First released in 2011, The One Ring was hailed as the best attempt at bringing Middle-earth to the gaming table to date.  With the praised and award-winning second edition of The One Ring, the game has entered a new era and brings players further into the Twilight of the Third Age.
