INTRODUCTION

The Misty Mountains define the eastern edge of Eriador,
separating that land from Rhovanion from the frozen wastes of Forochel
in the north all the way to the Gap of Rohan in the south. Of that
great expanse of rugged, forbidding heights, only one small section of
the range enters play in the
Lord of the Rings Online - the passes to
the northeast of Rivendell, where a company of Dwarves and their Hobbit
burglar passed through on their way to the Lonely Mountain far to the
east, accidentally setting off a chain of events that lead directly to
the War of the Ring and the end of the Third Age.

The Misty Mountains are not so much "misty" in this region as
they are "frozen solid." Giants and trolls claim the southern regions,
goblins and wargs the northeast, and hillmen, dwarves and various other
critters claim the remainder. The mountains are a harsh environment,
and the residents even harsher. Civilization, such as it is, is very
sparse here, with only three small, isolated camps hidden among the
frozen passes.
