While the setting and adventures contain much that makes The Lord of the Rings amazing, it is set at more of a scale to match the adventure Bilbo had in The Hobbit. Perfect for RPG world building.
YZ World Building: Dragonbane
The Dragonbane system is a d20 roll under slimmed down from a previous d100 system. I want to create a world using this system with an old-school fantasy feel using a modern system.
YZ Worldbuilding: Ruins of Symbaroum Call of the Dark
The Bell Tolls for Kastor, The Howling of Damned Gods, and What’s Bred in the Bone all deal with religious matters. The PCs must take sides, and their decision will profoundly affect the campaign world going forward. Religion and politics are intertwined in this world, and the final adventure in particular, marries the two into a complex and dangerous scenario.

First up are a Great Spider and a Monstrous Water Spider. Following that are the three siblings of Shelob.

While these spiders are similar, they are tougher and far more dangerous with servants and far reaching webs of terror they spin in Shadow.
