5. Name Fingolfins sword, what it means, and his horse


don't you people ever let me sleep!

I know the feeling. Anyways, the sword is Ringil, and by what it means, I don't quite follow. I know it was his glittering sword, but that's it. Also, the horse is Rochallor

ooh so close...

Sword-Ringil
Horse-Rochellor
Meaning-nope! sorry...guess again! meh i'll give it too you, or should i? seeing how you stole my pic logo...trademark thing

That gets me every time... I see Perky's avvie and think it's Gil-Galad...

Anyway, the sword's name doesn't have a meaning? It's only listed in one place in the Sil and says nothing about a meaning...

last i remember, it meant "Northern Star"...well i give too Perky

Fingolfin II-2

9. how did Thranduils father die and why

Oropher was slain in the Battle of Dagorlad, and as to "why", I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but he went to battle because he "forsaw that peace would not return unless Sauron was overcome. He therefore assembled a great army..." Also they were ill-equipped in weapons and armor.

Fingolfin II-2

10.what brought the downfall of LothLorien?




(the reason "why" Oropher died was because he charged head-first at the black gate with, as you said, very little armor

The downfall of Lothlorien? I'm not sure, but I'll say Galadriel passing over the Sea and Celeborn going to live in Rivendell, so the numbers of the people there dwindled and eventually no one lived there (as we saw in the Tale of Arwen and Aragorn).

your right...but Firefoot wins anyway! your go FIREFOOT

Thanks.

4. Why did the Orcs serve Melkor?

Because he forced them to do so through intimidation, since they were corrupted Elves in the beginning and they were forced to serve him even though they hated him deep down. Also because he offered them some degree of pleasure through violence and killing.
