I think this would be a great setting, starting about 20 years before the lord of the rings thing. The timing of LOTR would have to be fudged with a bit.
Characters would start at level 1, adventure in iconic areas like mirkwood and moria, etc. Around level cap there would be a battle with sauron which would be the fulfillment of their "epic destinies".
Sound interesting? I know its kinda cliche but who doesnt want to kill shelob around level 13, or the balrog/smaug around level 25?
