Moria - Through the Doors of Durin is an expansion for the second edition of the The One Ring Roleplaying Game. A version for The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying, titled Moria: Shadow of Khazad-dûm, was also released.

From the publisher

Moria™ – Through the Doors of Durin is an epic campaign expansion delving into the depths of Khazad-dûm for the award-winning second edition of The One Ring™ roleplaying game (TOR), based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien.

Set in the years before Balin’s doomed expedition, this supplement contains a hoard of Patrons, Landmarks, foes, encounters and treasures that a Loremaster can use to construct their own adventures in Moria – from a single desperate journey in the dark to a grand campaign to retake Durin’s Halls.

For long ages, the great city of the Dwarrowdelf was the seat of Dwarven kings, and they were rich beyond measure in gold and Mithril. But a thousand years ago, Durin’s Bane arose and drove the Dwarves from their halls. The city fell into darkness, becoming an abode of Orcs, Goblins – and worse.

Countless Orcs perished in the Battle of Five Armies. Maybe the Halls of Durin lie empty once more. Maybe there are piles of treasure there, waiting to be claimed. Maybe Mithril still glimmers in the mines under Caradhras. Cross the dread threshold, adventurer, and delve deep!

Includes a large full-colour map of Moria™, with a combat diagram on the back.

Reception

In a review for Other Minds 28, Thomas Morwinsky found this to be best source book to date, that it was “definitely worth the long wait”, and that it compared well against the Moria publications for Middle-earth Role Playing and The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying Game. His sole point of critique is that the notion of Dwarves aiding in the forging of the Rings of Power, while possible, did not seem all that plausible to him.
