I came up with a really good one and didn't want to wait.

Elves
Men
Ents
Hobbits
Orcs

This is a killer question!

Re: Another Odd Man Out

I'll say it's a killer, since there are probably about 1,000 different answers.

Hobbits, bcause they did not play a role in the Battle of Helm's Deep?

Ents

Some of you guessed the right answer, but none of you for the right reason. Here's a hint.

Four of these races did something that the fifth one didn't. (a hint - the orcs did it frequently, and the hobbits are known only to have done it once).

- Maglor

You guys are going to love the answer.

Wild guess

Maybe ents? Because they are the only who didn't enter in Torech Ungol or fought against Shelob?
Orcs did enter often in those passages and frodo and Sam entered once.

Ents

Okay - I already stupidly gave away the answer - Ents. But why? What did no ent ever do that was done at least once by an elf, a human, a hobbit and an orc?

Bingo

Exactly, Falmar.

Unless it is tucked away somewhere in the HoME books, there is no recorded incident anywhere of an ent slaying another ent.

(If you are wondering about hobbits, remember Gollum killed Deagol).

I'm not sure about dwarves which is why they weren't included in the list.

Go Falmar!

Re: Bingo

That was a good question Maglor, but didn't hobbits also kill other hobbits in the scouring of the Shire?

Battle Of Bywater

It does not specifically say one way or the other, but the implication (Frodo - &quot;There is to be NO killing of hobbits ...) is that they did not. Some hobbits were killed at the battle, however. In any event, it doesn't technically change the answer.

Yes, I think you're right -- it doesn't say any hobbit killed a hobbit. Like I said, good question, Maglor.

Denethor

Denethor was the only one who gave in to the will of an enemy.

Elwe - refused to give up the Nuaglamir
Theoden - charged the Nazgul
Hurin - defied Morgoth even while imprisoned
Lobelia - attempted to fight off the ruffians

Denethor - Was overwhelmed by his visions, gave up and commited suicide.

I think Telchar gave a good answer, although not the one I was thinking of. I was thinking that Elwe was the only one that did not have a son die before him.

Realms

They each had their own realms, except one of the sons of Feanor - I can't remember which one.

Celebrimbor - Lindon
Finrod - Nargathrond
Galadriel - Lorien
Turgon - Gondolin
Celegorm / Curifin - ?

I know I'm close, so I'm going to guess Celegorm

Re: Realms

I'll let you have it. After my original idea, it occurred to me that every one of these characters is an odd man out
Gimli for never owning an Elven gemstone.
Frodo for never travelling OVER the Misty Mountains.
Galdriel for being the only one not to wear a weapon.
Gandalf and Aragorn for your previous reasons
My original thought was the Frodo one.
Proceed good sir.
Cheers,
Valros

Re: Realms

Speaking for myself, I'm STUMPED. I didn't know Frodo had any profession (except author).

Re: Realms

Robin Smallburrow, because he was the only one that didn't produce a product, but a service...

Frodo produced writings/books
Ted produced Grain or whatever he made on the mill
Sam produced vegetables and flowers
Lotho mad among other things pipeweed

hmmmm

Actually it could also be Frodo - the only one that has produced somethin we can enjoy today <img src=smile.gif ALT=":)">

Re: Realms

Although correct - that was NOT what I was looking for - the correct answer is even more obvious <img src=laugh.gif ALT=":lol">

Re: Realms

The correct reason was for not producing anything(beer bellies don't count) and the odd one out now is Halberad for not fighting at the Battle of Helm's Deep!
Maybe...

Re: Realms

Untill I can come up with something better, I can only say that Aragorn was the only one to leave ME while he still had a living wife?

Re: Realms

... it could also be Aragorn for never coming to or from Eressä or Valinor?

Re: Realms

Nope neither of those reasons.
It's really the most simple of reasons.
It's something that all but one of them did on a regular basis.

Re: Battle Of Bywater

Fingolfin
Maedhros
Thingol
Maglor
Cirdan

One of these didn't participate in a certain event. Who, and which event?
