The Dark Eye and Realms of Arkania Conversion

The Following lists contains Ideas how to adapt Cultures and Classes from Realms of Arkania aka The Dark Eye ("Das Schwarze Auge") for a Middle-Earth Background. The Dark Eye aka Realms of Arkania and Myranor is a classic Pen & Paper RPG roughly based on early D&D with a very well developed setting and background.It has a large array of playable races and classes but it's magic system, while in general magic is considered rare and powerful, contains simple everyday-spells alongside powerful battle-magic and incantation of demons, which might be considered unsuitable for a Middle-Earth setting (apart from many spells having names in a ridiculous mock-latin).
