Welcome to the The New Notion Club Archives
The Notion Club Archives are an open project, an an encyclopedia dedicated to Expanded Arda, non-canonical subcreation within J.R.R. Tolkien´s World of Arda.
Originally dedicated to support and preserve abandoned, out-of-print and fan-made material dedicated to roleplaying games, as times passed this Wiki has moved it´s focus onto the broader field of subcreation including RPG Games (Middle Earth Roleplaying (MERP), Questgame, The Lord of the Rings Role-Playing Game, The One Ring - Roleplaying in Middle Earth, Adventures in Middle-earth) , Play-by-mail Games (Middle-Earth play-by-mail), Card Games (Middle-Earth Collectible Card Game,The Lord of the Rings Trading Card Game) Collectable Miniatures (Mithril Miniatures) and Table-top Games (The Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game, The Hobbit Strategy Battle Game, Legendary journeys in Middle-earth) Computer and Video Games (The Lord of the Rings Online) and the wide field of Tolkien and Arda related Fanfiction.
The principal directive of the Notion Club Archives is the fictitious approach that this is the official Archive of the New Notion Club. The Original Notion Club was a fictional society created by J.R.R. Tolkien for his unfinished short story The Notion Club Papers.
The Notion Club was a fictionalized Version of Tolkien's own literary group of the early 1930s to late 1940ies. The Members of the fictional Notion Club undertook experiments in the field of time travel through visions and lucid dreams which led some of their members, notably Alwin Lowdham and Michael George Ramer, eventually to discover earth´s fictional alternate past - The prehistorical mythical World of Arda (with it´s forgotten continents of Middle-Earth and Númenór).
As the long forgotten Notion Club Papers were found by Howard Green, Clerk of the Schools at Oxford, and published by the university press in 2012 AD in the seventh Age, though most readers regarded them as a work of fiction,some interest in the Experiments of the Notion Club Society and Time Travel through Lucid Dreams were renewed and in Year 67 of the Seventh Age, Historian and Writer James C. Hare, who thought the Notion Club papers might be a fictionalized writing of actual experiments which had actually happened, founded the New Notion Club , a secret literal Society with the objective to continue the scientific work of the group surrounding Alwin Lowdham and Michael George Ramer and to discover more details of the lost Ages of the World, with the main focus on the Westlands in the first-third Ages.
This Wiki has a adapted a semi-official hierarchy considering the canonicity of it´s articles:The Works published by J.R.R. Tolkien during his lifetime are considered canonical.Those of his works published posthumously by his heirs are considered secondary-canon, and are to be recognized as far as they do not directly contradict The Works published by J.R.R. Tolkien during his lifetime. Secondary works, such as Roleplaying Books, Games and fanfiction are considered subordinate in the hierarchy. Any new Articles posted on the Archives have to be brought into concordance with the canonical works and should intend not to contradict the official canon.However the main Subject of this project still is to further explore the past Ages of Arda and to bring forth more details of it´s history, culture, historical personas and other elements that make Arda a more dense, complex and cohesive world and literal creation.
We advise our contributors that new additions and articles onthis wiki should be written with the idea in mind that they consider a factinous past of our own world and should keep up the literal illusion that they are written by members of the New Notion Club who gain their knowledge on the forgotten Ages of Arda by experiments in the fields of lucid dreaming.
-For mainly legal reasons there yet is one more Rule which we would like to advise our contributors to take to heart: No Stats and direct Quotes from official and still available Gamebooks and other commercial and officially licensed publications allowed! Strictly original Content!
For the canonical Arda we recommend: One Wiki to Rule Them All, The Lord of the Rings Encyclopedia
