The Rise of Morgoth is a server that runs the Lord of the Rings mod developed by Mevans. Started back in 2015, the server retained a stable but small community for nearly a decade. Recently, the entire LotR Mod community has entered a lull of activity, though there are still servers and players that continue to play. Now is the perfect time for new players to try out the mod, especially on our server.
Our server is different from other LotR servers in that while we have factions, light roleplay, and lore in line with Tolkien’s works, we are somewhat lax and allow players to do what they want to do. For example, a player normally would need to achieve enough reputation to become the king of a faction, but if a group of players band together and proclaim one person king, they can rule de-facto until they are challenged.
Another distinguishing feature is that we allow for custom lore and characters, assuming that it would feasibly fit within Tolkien’s world. For example, a player create a character that would be the lord of a certain Rohirric city and play as said character. We even allow for lore from the First and Second age to apply to our world (to a limited degree). We want to focus on the Third Age, but after all, the server is called The Rise of Morgoth.
We grant any player access to temporary creative mode and some world edit features if they decide they want to take on a particularly challenging build, a feature not found in most LotR servers. All builds on the server are made by our own players, such as the Vintner Court, Cirith Ungol, Minas Morgul, Rivendell, and Baraz-Tum.
Besides the LotR mod, we also use CustomNPCs. This allows for players to go on quests created by staff. Current quests are short introductions to the good and evil factions, though there are more to come.
Players who are interested in a smaller community will find themselves at home at the Rise of Morgoth, and anyone interested in the Lord of the Rings should definitely try out the mod, as it’s one of the largest mods in existence. Whether you want a simple life to settle down in the Shire, or want to hunt orcs in one of the major kingdoms of Men or Elves, want to discover riches deep in the earth in a Dwarf hold, or relish in the raids and slaughter that issue out of Orc fortresses, our server has opportunities for all playstyles. The server is due for a resurgence, and many roles are unclaimed, so now is the time.
To join, you’ll need the latest version of the LotR Mod Legacyand CustomNPCs 1.7.10d. Everything you need to join is also available on our Wiki page, including our IP and a Modpack.
