| | Elendor recreates the world of Tolkien's imagination, but not necessarily the exact events of the books: what will come to pass in the future is not fixed. | | | Tis Mud has an Arda section that is faithful to Tolkien description. | | | The key of Erebor was just found by Gandalf in Dol Guldur and all the epic tales narrated in The Lord of the Rings may take place. |

| Â | Barzag uHalmar - Akallabeth MUSH |
| | Akallabêth is a Tolkien-based MUSH, set in the Second Age before the fall of Númenor (during the reign of Tar-Palantir; starting year 3175 in the alternative MUSH timeline). | | | It has a small player base, and so at the moment only a few cultures are open (which is why Barzag started off in Umbar!). | | | The room descriptions are carefully crafted, and often breathtaking - you could spend hours just wandering round admiring the scenery. |
