As a roleplayer in <a href="http://www.lotro.com"><em>Lord of the Rings Online</em></a>, you have access to a goldmine of information regarding how to properly involve yourself in the lore and storyline of the game. Tolkien's works have been so deeply researched and analyzed that there's bound to be some angle in which you can draw inspiration for your character. With the latest expansion, <a href="http://moria.lotro.com"><em>Mines of Moria</em></a>, a whole new (underground) world has opened up for you to grow your roleplaying adventures.<br /><br />In a recent <a href="http://www.warcry.com/articles/view/interviews/5522-RoleCraft-Roleplaying-Moria">RoleCraft article at Warcry</a>, we get a look at some examples and suggestions for proper roleplaying in <em>Moria</em>. If you're a Dwarf, you're all set because <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/11/25/know-your-lotro-lore-khazad-dum-and-the-origins-of-moria/"><em>Moria</em> is all about you</a>. However, being an Elf, Man or Hobbit may present some interesting challenges, but that's the fun of roleplaying! Challenge yourself to create a unique back story for your characters to explain why they're in Moria. What are they hoping to achieve? The sky's the limit... or at least the mine's ceiling, anyway.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/12/03/roleplaying-in-mines-of-moria/">Roleplaying in Mines of Moria</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Wed, 03 Dec 2008 12:00:00 EST.
