The Lord of the Rings RPG: Trials of Saruman (5E) FLF LTR011

“He is great among the Wise. He is the chief of my order and the head of the Council. His knowledge is deep, but his pride has grown with it, and he takes ill any meddling.“

Trials of Saruman contains six adventures for The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying, the 5E adaptation of The One Ring tabletop roleplaying game based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, in which the heroes are sent to serve or watch the White Wizard Saruman. The adventures take place from the year 2965 to the opening moves of the War of the Ring, and can be played individually, or as part of a larger tale.

For Saruman the White is the Lord of Isengard, a counsellor to kings, a master of Ring-lore, and the chief adversary of the Enemy. Great is his wisdom, yet greater still is his pride. The tale starts before his fall; the treason of Isengard has not begun. Perhaps Saruman’s doom is already written, or perhaps the heroes can change the ending and save the White Wizard from corruption. Saruman’s fate and that of all Middle-Earth lies in their hands!
