The following worlds are Roleplay-Supported:
These worlds have an extra set of rules and policies to provide a more Middle-earth immersive enviroment not only for role players but also for all those who come to Lotro due to their love for the books and setting.
In addition, the Landroval server is Roleplay-Encouraged. This world does not support the additional rules and policies that apply on the two aforementioned servers, but encourages roleplaying in a friendly environment. It is based in the USA.
Role-playing games
A role-playing game is a type of game in which the participants assume the roles of characters and collaboratively create stories. Participants determine the actions of their characters based on their characterization, and the actions succeed or fail according to a formal system of rules and guidelines. Within the rules, they may improvise freely; their choices shape the direction and outcome of the games.
