Lords of Moria

Still the sunken stars appear in dark and windless Mirrormere

Lords of Moria is a tabletop roleplaying game campaign set in the world of The Lord of the Rings, played at the weekly events of Tales of Bruss’Hell in Brussels, Belgium. The game uses The One Ring system by Free League, combining material from the Moria – Through the Doors of Durin expansion with custom rules. The Gamemaster (also called a Loremaster) is a veteran of The One Ring, with 15+ years of experience in tabletop roleplaying games.

Join the Campaign!

The campaign operates on an open table policy: anyone is welcome to join a session through Tales of Bruss’Hell’s sign-up system. Veterans and beginners alike are welcome! Prior experience in role-playing games or The One Ring system is not necessary, and all accessories (starter characters, dice) are provided by the organizer – just bring an adventurous mind and a respectful attitude towards your fellow players.

Player-heroes are Dwarves in Balin’s expedition to Moria, taking place 30 years before the War of the Ring. The heroes spearhead the efforts to explore the depths, seek long-lost treasure, and drive back the forces of the Shadow. The Dwarf-colony stands or falls by the heroes’ decisions.
