The race of Dwarves whose halls were at Belegost, the northernmost of the two great Dwarf-cities that stood in the Blue Mountains during the First Age. They had generally better relations with the Elves than their neighbours in Nogrod, and as well as being responsible for the building of Menegroth, they fought bravely beside Elves and Men during the Nirnaeth Arnoediad.

[Arwen Imladris]

Manardariel got it!

Orofaniel: you double posted there, ya might want to fix that before the mods come circaling. smilies/smile.gif

[Manardariel]

I´m in a hurry, so this will be easy...

Who is not a king?
A)Eldarion
B)Eomer
C)Elendil
D)Elros

[Beren87]

Umm..E, none of the above?

[Arwen Imladris]

Perhaps Elendil? I found a place where it says he was the LORD of the Andunie, not king. He also fled Numenor, so even if he was noble, maybe Manardariel is thinking that he did not really have a kingdom, or something...

[Beren87]

He was the first High King of the Arnor. He established the kingdom, he kinda has to be King.

[Lëowen]

Maybe she means Eomer because he wasn't a king start with, he only became king after Theoden died.

[Beren87]

Then you could say the same thing for Eldarion, he didn't become King until his dad died.

[Lëowen]

I suppose you could say that, but I meant that Eomer wasn't supposed to have been king. It was only because that Theoden's son (I can't remember his name)died that Eomer became king after Theoden's death. Eldarion was supposed to be king eventually, while Eomer was not.

[Beren87]

I think Manardariel just got into too much of a hurry and messed-up. We'll see when she gets back.

[Manardariel]

Sorry!! I thought Elendil never was a king...my bad! smilies/frown.gif

[Manardariel]

Oh, and anyone can go! smilies/smile.gif

[Arwen Imladris]

<font color=black>Manardariel is crazy! smilies/smile.gif

How about:

Which one was not of the race of men?

a) Alcarin
b) Eärnil II
c) Amras
d) Sador

[Gil-Galad]

Amras was a Son of Feanor

[Arwen Imladris]

Yup! Your go!

[Manardariel]

HEY! I saw that! smilies/tongue.gif

[Arwen Imladris]

smilies/biggrin.gif Sorry Manardariel! I was wondering if anyone would notice my secret writing, I tried to make it somewhat obvious! That is O.K. We are all crazy here! Weeee! Don't worry, I have made many worse mistakes than that! smilies/wink.gif

[Gil-Galad]

which was not breed by Melkor?

A) Balrogs
B) Spiders
C) Kraken
D) B and C

[elven maiden Earwen]

Answer E) none of the above

[Manardariel]

Well, I guess you could say B, because normal Spiders were already there, and Melkor only kind of "perfected" (well) them, making them bigger and stuff.

[Gwaihir the Windlord]

Erm actually Earwen is right

[Gil-Galad]

well manardiel was right becasue Balrog spririts came to Melkor and they were created and Melkor did create Krakens but not many, one of them was the watcher in the waters

[elven maiden Earwen]

Encyclpodia of Arda:
These small eight-legged creatures, known for capturing their prey in intricate webs, were evidently as common in Middle-earth as they are today. Characters in The Lord of the Rings often refer to them descriptively, whether it be Gandalf discussing his capture by Saruman (quoted above), Sam climbing ropes across the Silverlode, or Gollum clambering down a rock wall.

There was a more sinister side to the spiders of Middle-earth, though, that entered it with the monstrous Ungoliant in the years before the First Age. A gigantic creature of spider-shape, it was she who destroyed the Two Trees of Valinor, and escaped with Melkor into the lands of Middle-earth. Though Ungoliant herself disappeared into the far south, she left the northern lands infested with her offspring. During the First Age, the mountains of the Ered Gorgoroth were infested with these monsters, and became a place of dread.

The most famous of Ungoliant's children, though, lived far to the south and east of the Ered Gorgoroth, on the borders of the land of Mordor. This was Shelob, who haunted a network of tunnels watching the pass of Cirith Ungol, eking a living on the hapless Orcs of Sauron. She had offspring of her own, too, smaller than she but with a cruel intelligence, that spread throughout the Ephel Dúath and north into Mirkwood. It was creatures like these that Bilbo encountered in The Hobbit, and through fighting them that his sword acquired its name Sting.


The Balrogs originated as Maiar, beings of the same kind as Sauron himself. They were primordial spirits of fire that had allied themselves with Melkor in ancient times, and became the most feared of his servants, especially during the Wars of Beleriand in the First Age. Details of their numbers are hard to state with certainty, but there seem to have been relatively few of them - probably no more than seven.


The Balrogs were in origin Maiar, of the same order as Sauron or Gandalf. Melkor corrupted them to his service in the distant past of the World, in the days of his splendour. They were originally gathered by him in his ancient fastness of Utumno during the time of the Lamps of the Valar. When this fortress was destroyed by the Valar, at least some fled and lurked in the pits of Angband (whether any of the original Balrogs were slain in the Valar's attack on Utumno is not known).

A mysterious and horrific beast that lurked in the swollen waters of the Sirannon, beneath the western walls of Moria.

Erm. He didn't breed any of those smilies/confused.gif

[The Saucepan Man]

I'm with elven maiden Earwen on this. Melkor bred none of those creatures.

[ June 17, 2003: Message edited by: The Saucepan Man ]

[Manardariel]

I´m sorry, Earwen! I really WAS only guessing. You can go, I really don´t mind! smilies/smile.gif

[Manardariel]

*With the Curtesy of elven maien Earwen*

Who was not on Treebeard´s list?

A)Eagle
B)Swan
C)Hound
C)Raven

[Arwen Imladris]

A)Eagle in eyrie
B)Swan the whitest
C)Hound is hungry

So it must be:
D)Raven ?

[Manardariel]

Yes, exactly! You´re up, Arwen!

[Arwen Imladris]

Which one is NOT a boundry?

a) River Rivil
b) River Adorn
c) River Sirith
d) River Running

[Gil-Galad]

River Runnign me thinks, it just goes starghit trough Rovanion and when i was reading the Tolkien Beasteriry, it says that Melkor created many creatures such as the Kraken and transformed maiar into Balrogs

[Arwen Imladris]

Nope! The Running was a great river that formed the eastern boundary of Rhovanion.

[The Saucepan Man]

Answer (a), the River Rivil, which runs through Dorthonion, but forms no boundary.

[Arwen Imladris]

Your turn!

Er, so what's your answer Gil-Galad? Gil-Galad? smilies/wink.gif

[Gwaihir the Windlord]

Nope, it isn't Gil-Galad, and the answer is found in the Sil.

[Elentarimir]

Just on a wild guess, I would say none of the above. I can't think that anyone them were released like that...

[elven maiden Earwen]

c) Finrod

It said that he walks with his brother(dad, whatever he was) in the gardens of Valinor. Or something like that. smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/rolleyes.gif

Tch well you took long enough to come up with it smilies/smile.gif.

a) Aragorn
b) Elendil
c) Elured
d) Bilbo

[Arwen Imladris]

Well, it sure wasn't Bilbo, I couldn't find how old Elured was. Aragorn lived 210 years, so that would leave Elendil who lived to be 322 years old.

So, In other words Elendil?

[Gwaihir the Windlord]

Yes, Elendil was the longest lived. Although Elured was an Elf, he was killed before reaching adulthood; you turn.

B. Shelob
C. Smaug
D. Sauron
E. Witch-King

Which of these was Gandalf afraid of if something happened too them?

[Sleepy Ranger]

Gil-Galad I don't quite get the question.

[Beren87]

Whats that supposed to mean?

I believe that he was referring to the fact that you posted at 3AM. smilies/wink.gif

And Gil-Galad, you'll need to restate the question.

[Gil-Galad]

Here it is again


A. Mouth of Sauron
B. Shelob
C. Smaug
D. Sauron
E. Witch-King


Which of these 'creatures" was Gandalf most afraid of?

[Sleepy Ranger]

B. Shelob

I believe that he was referring to the fact that you posted at 3AM.

It wasn't 3 A.M here.

[Gil-Galad]

Nope!

[NightKnight]

Smaug, because of what he could have done if Thorin & co hadn't stopped him.

[Beren87]

D. Sauron

But even that isn't really logical. Gandalf feared a trial would come between the himself and Sauron, and he was not sure that he was ready for such a test. To say Gandalf was "afraid" of anything wouldn't really be a true statement. He was more fearful of testing himself.

[Gil-Galad]

NightKnight! right thing, but wrong reason! try again

[Gil-Galad]

try again!!!

[Morgoth Bauglir]

D. Sauron

he WAS afraid of sauron in the very begining, in valinor. this is why Manwe chose him to go to middle earth.

[Gil-Galad]

NightKnight! right thing, but wrong reason! try again

Smaug, because of what he could have done if Thorin & co hadn't stopped him.

... need i say?

[Estanesse]

Are you looking for a quote from the books or an interpretation?

[Gil-Galad]

It was mentioned i nthe books, maybe the appendics...

[Estanesse]

D: Sauron

The Dragon Sauron might use with terrible effect. How then could the end of Smaug be achieved?

is this what you are referring to??

[ November 25, 2003: Message edited by: Estanesse ]

[NightKnight]

That's kinda what I said. smilies/wink.gif

[Gil-Galad]

... Your close but it isn't Sauron!

[Telchar]

But Olórin declared that he was too weak for such a task, and that he feared Sauron. Then Manwë said that that was all the more reason why he should go, and that he commanded Olórin (illegible words follow that seems to contain word "third"). But at that Varda looked up and said: "Not as the third;" and Curumo remembered it.

The Dragon Sauron might use with terrible effect. How then could the end of Smaug be achieved?

Im not sure what you're looking for Gil-galad, but I think these are the lines concerning Gandalfs fear, that the others are refereing to.


I think its safe to say that Gandalfs greatest fear was Sauron - in regard to Smaug, his fear was what Sauron could use the dragon for.

[Gil-Galad]

!!! if its not sauron or shelob!!! and your very close with your previous anwser!!!! then it should be easy!!!

[Gil-Galad]

[The Saucepan Man]

This is straying into the realm of farce. Could we please wrap this one up and move on? smilies/rolleyes.gif

Thank you.

[Telchar]

This one is getting far too idiotic for me! I think Gil should give his answer (and explain it!!!) Then he can post a new question.

Cheers T

A. Mouth of Sauron
B. Shelob
C. Smaug
D. Sauron
E. Witch-King

Which of these 'creatures" was Gandalf most afraid of?

in appendices, it says Gandalf needed way to defeat Smaug, becaseu Sauron might use it with terrible effect, so gandalf was afraid of Smaug!!!

Telchar was closet so he can go

[Gil-Galad]

and i didn't mean closet as in where you put stuff, i meant very near too anwser way.. yah

[Telchar]

OK - New question:

Which of these should post the next question?

A: NightKnight - for giving - Gil-galads answer, but for another reason than Gil-galads?

B: Beren87 - for comming with an IMO much better answer - which he argued for?

C: Morgoth Bauglir - for backing up Beren87s fine answer?

D: Estanesse - for giving the IMO better answer + the reason Gil-galad was looking for?

E: NightKnight - For crying? Which I can understand smilies/biggrin.gif

F: Telchar - for finding references in the books, but refusing to give the answer Gil-galad was looking for, because the answer was wain.

G: Saucepan Man - for trying to stop the nonsense?

Please wote! whoever has more wotes when I wake up on december 1, can ask the next question.

[The Saucepan Man]

smilies/rolleyes.gif

OK, let's see if we can carry on this game without any further antagonisation.

I suggest that NightKnight asks the next question, as he was the one who actually got the answer right.

[Telchar]

Ok so your wote is A!

Mine is B

[Estanesse]

I vote G: Let’s stop this nonsense smilies/tongue.gif

If someone votes E does that count as a second vote for NightKnight smilies/biggrin.gif

If someone votes E does that count as a second vote for NightKnight

YUP!!!! He needs the favorable odds smilies/biggrin.gif

[The Saucepan Man]

Come on folks, give it up. smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Iaurhirwen]

Sorry for the post.
Stupid computer :mad:

[Evisse the Blue]

Your go Sleepy.

[Sleepy Ranger]

"He seems to have escaped when Smaug smashed the mountain side." This was said by Bilbo in The Hobbit. Who escaped and in the rest of the sentence Bilbo says that someone else may not have survived. Who are these two?

A. Thrush and Thorin
B. Thorin and Balin
C. Thrush and Snails
D. Erebor and most of its men

[symestreem]

D. Erebor and most of its men.

[Sleepy Ranger]

Nope. Why would Bilbo refer to Erebor as "he"?

[Gil-Galad]

C. i would think

[Sleepy Ranger]

And C it is.

[Gil-Galad]

Which one of these characters who didn't play a big role in Saurons downfall

A. Eomer
B. Eowyn
C. Frodo
D. Smeagol

[Arvedui III]

Herm, I'm gonna say...A.

[The Saucepan Man]

Well, since Eowyn killed his key minion, you're probably right, Arvedui III.

But, then again Eomer was among those at the Black Gate "diversion". So, just for the fun of it, I'll go with 'B'.

[Gil-Galad]

Arvedui III has it! to me Eomer was there just to look important

[Arvedui III]

Heheh, very true. Alrightly, new question:

Which of the following couples are not in someway related to each other.

A. Merry Brandybuck and Estella Bolger
B. Pippin Took and Diamond of Long Cleave
C. Sam Gamgee and Rosie Cotton
D. None of the above

[Sleepy Ranger]

Sorry meant A

[Kath]

D as far as I can remember.

[Evisse the Blue]

Do you mean related, besides being husband and wife? Because if so, I think the right answer is B.

[Gil-Galad]

nobody said C, so i'll say C!!!

[Arvedui III]

Yes Evisse, I do mean besides being husband and wife, and yes, the answer is B. Good job.

Rosie and Sam are something like 6th cousins and technically brother and sister because their siblings (Marigold and Tom) married. Merry and Estella Bolger are also related, though, I don't think they've yet invented the words to describe exactly how.

Those silly, inbred hobbits. :D

[Evisse the Blue]

hehehe.
Alright:

Who was Narya first entrusted to:
A. Galadriel
B Gil-Galad
C. Gandalf
D. Cirdan
E. Celeborn

[Sleepy Ranger]

Gil-Galad

[Heni]

No that was surely Cirdan. And he later entrusted this ring to Gandalf. This ring is known as the Ring of Fire

[NightKnight]

Heni, it was actually given to Gil-galad, who gave it to Cirdan.

[Evisse the Blue]

Yes, it was Gil-Galad (if still not convinced, look in UT, History of Galadriel and Celeborn).
Sleepy, give us the next one.

[Gil-Galad]

Gil-Galad--->Elrond
Cirdan--->Gandalf
Galadriel

[The Saucepan Man]

I haven't got my books handy, but I have a feeling that Heni and Gil-Galad are correct. I thought that it was Vilya that was given originally to Gil-Galad (and passed by him to Elrond), wheras Narya was originally borne by Cirdan and passed by him to Gandalf.

[Sleepy Ranger]

How many Elves have slain a dragon?
A. 0
B. 5
C. 1
D. 3

[The Saucepan Man]

None, as far as I know. Scatha, Glaurung and Smaug were all slain by Men, Ancalagon and his cronies were vanquished by Earendil, a Half-Elf, and the Eagles.

So I'd say A.

[Kath]

Well in that case should it maybe be C because Earendil was half elf.

[The Saucepan Man]

Or perhaps it's ...

E. ½ :D

[Sleepy Ranger]

Well I was thinking C. Since the Silm says he was counted among Elves. But Saucepan Man had a better answer. Whoever makes it first may answer.

[Sleepy Ranger]

I meant between Saucepan man and Kath

[symestreem]

Duh, right! I'm sorry!

[Gil-Galad]

your question is a little bit puzzling, you ask for cousins we don't know they have, maybe they didn't have any at all!, but i will have to say D or E(guess)

[Evisse the Blue]

About the Narya controversy - from Unfinished Tales, History of Galadriel and Celeborn:
Celebrimbor followed her counsel that the Ring of Air and the Ring of Fire should be sent out of Eregion and he entrusted them to Gil-Galad in Lindon.

[The Saucepan Man]

Doh! That will teach me to not read the book before opening my big, fat keyboard! :rolleyes:

Earendil was still a Half-Elf even though, given the choice of the Peredhil, he chose the fate of Elves.

But I am happy to let Kath go next ... :)

[Kath]

This is Kath but I'm kinda confused.
Did I get it right?

[Sleepy Ranger]

Yes and since Saucepanman generously gave away his turn. I guess it is your turn.
Sorry for the confusion :)

[Kath]

Woohoo - a correct answer by me.
Well here goes a question:
Who does not have a child featured in the main books?
A) Sam
B) Beregond
C) Pippin
D) Gaffer Gamgee
i know easy but it's my first.

[Sleepy Ranger]

Pippin

[Kath]

Of course.
Your go.

[Sleepy Ranger]

Out of these who is not mentioned to have killed an orc.

A. Pippin
B. Merry
C. Frodo
D. Grima
