Eol has just left Hobbiton.

I use to enjoy tolkien knock-off fantasies(Dragonlance, TSR...). Then I grew up. The influence(having a group for questing, having a gandolf like character, etc.) was there for a while until I began doing research of history. It was then everything was blown away and I began creating my own stuff being inspired by history and not by anachronistic fantasy.

Though since since you realize this the influence, you can do something to change: do your research in the era you like. That is how Interregnum came to pass.
