The Lord of the Rings RPG 5E Keepers of the Elven Rings Supplement Book

Keepers of the Elven Rings is an official supplementary sourcebook for The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying game, which utilises the 5th Edition ruleset. This expansion focuses specifically on the realms and cultures of the West-elves during the twilight years of the Third Age in J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth. It provides players and Loremasters with detailed material to incorporate these immortal folk and their struggles into their campaigns, set against the backdrop of Sauron's gathering strength. The book is structured into several comprehensive chapters. The first details the three enduring Elven realms: Lórien, Rivendell, and Lindon, including their inhabitants and the Elf-lords who guard them. The second chapter equips the Loremaster with Sauron's specific schemes against the Elves, featuring potential events, adversaries, and non-player characters to drive narratives. A third chapter outlines twelve significant landmarks across Middle-earth, blending locations familiar from The Lord of the Rings with new sites created for the game. An appendix provides rules for playing as High Elves and Wood-elves and introduces guidelines for creating powerful Elf-lord characters capable of reaching level 20 for epic-scale adventures. This supplement is ideally suited for existing players of The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying who wish to deepen their exploration of Elven lore and high-level play. It serves as a valuable resource for Loremasters crafting campaigns centred on the Elves' final stands in Middle-earth, their ancient power, and the specific threats they face from the Dark Lord. The material allows for campaigns that blend political intrigue, mystical exploration, and large-scale conflict within Tolkien's established legendarium.
