Darkness upon Middle-Earth has changed its name from Lords of Middle-Earth for various reasons.
[New]
We've inherited some of the features FoME had with permission after the server, unfortunately, went down. All former FoME players are more than welcome!
Darkness upon Middle-Earth sets its age from 2941TA. We have lore rulers which comes with powerful diplomacy and additional strength. We also have 'Realms'. Information about what realms are is located inside the rules page. All of the updated information is located in our discord.
We also have artifacts and relics scattered around Middle-earth to seek for!

Rules
1. General Rules
- Be respectful to every player, if you happen to ever get into an argument, keep it in a safe spot.
- Ask a staff member if you’re going to use a mod.
- Griefing NPC buildings is heavily frowned upon. If you absolutely must grief a building take the whole build or you may be punished. There will be times that it is acceptable to grief, such as prior to a server/region reset.
- Keep it in english in the game-chat.
- Use mature attitude as much as you possibly can. Acting childish brings an negative impression on yourself and/or others.
- No bug exploiting whatsoever.
- Use of X-ray or any similar program that walks in the same path as hack is strictly prohibited.
- Changing faction must be done by asking one of the staff members. If no one are online you can either wait or dm them on discord. We will have to reset your alignment for your faction change.
- Staying inside Middle-Earth is obligatory, going outside will result in an inventory clear as well as a warning. If you ever happen to get spawned in the vanilla world, which can happen. Type /spawn to get back to the ring portal.
- You are not allowed to set any waypoints inside other players claimed areas/bases or anything familiar that is player owned.
- Keep excessive swearing out of the chat! Remember that many children play here and that some players do not enjoy seeing course language.
