Beren87 01-30-2003 11:45 PM

Ah, not a balrog....but still closer.

Ultimatejoe 01-31-2003 09:57 AM

Finrod is the only one to face Sauron?

Russandol 02-01-2003 04:30 PM

Finrod was the only one who didn't have any children?

Manardariel 02-08-2003 05:52 PM

Weeezzz, this is hard....Beren87, a hint, maybe?

elven maiden Earwen 02-16-2003 07:41 PM

Hey Beren87 plese give us a hint

Rochelle 02-16-2003 07:55 PM

Finrod was the only one who was not slain or had family slain by Morgoth? I think it was mentioned before, but Finrod also did not fight in the Unnumbered Tears.

elven maiden Earwen 02-24-2003 11:43 AM

Beren87 please can we have a hint!!!!

Lindolirian 02-25-2003 06:22 PM

Okay... This one is waaaay past 10 days.


Beren
Hurin
Azog
Gimli
Androg

The Saucepan Man 02-25-2003 10:43 PM

Gimli is the odd one out, since all the others killed Dwarves and Gimli is a Dwarf.

Beren attacked the Dwarves of Nogrod who had killed Thingol and stolen Nauglamir.

Hurin killed the Petty Dwarf, Mim.

Azog was on Orcish king who no doubt killed many Dwarves, including Thror.

Of Androg, I have no idea, but he sounds like an Orc and therefore a Dwarf-killer.

Btw Lindolirian, your reply is awaited on the "What doesn't belong" thread.

Lindolirian 02-26-2003 03:40 PM

You are correct. Androg was the companion of Túrin who shot Khîm, Mîm's son.

The Saucepan Man 02-26-2003 05:20 PM

OK. This is probably quite easy, but here goes:

Bilbo Baggins
Thorin Oakenshield
Gandalf the Grey
Legolas Greenleaf
Aragorn
Peregrine Took

elven maiden Earwen 02-26-2003 05:31 PM

pip because he hasnt been to the woods of Mirkwood.

Tar-Palantir 02-26-2003 07:41 PM

Legolas has never been to the Shire.

The Saucepan Man 02-27-2003 09:16 PM

Nope. It's not about where any of them went. It's about something that five of them did that one did not.

elven maiden Earwen 02-27-2003 11:23 PM

everyone but legolas died.Gandalf died in Moria and returned to life and the rest were mortal except legolas?

Durelin 02-28-2003 07:13 PM

Bilbo never killed an orc while the rest of them did? Well, I think Bilbo only killed spiders, right?

The Saucepan Man 02-28-2003 08:13 PM

Nope. I'm thinking more about their time off from killing orcs and the like ...

Durelin 02-28-2003 08:29 PM

Oh, duh! Smoke pipeweed! Legolas is the only one that doesn't smoke pipeweed! Am I right?

The Saucepan Man 02-28-2003 08:32 PM

Of course you are. Mind you, I probably could have included every non-Elf in the list.

Funny, Elves are the ones who live forever and aren't affected by disease, and yet they are the ones who don't smoke. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Durelin 02-28-2003 08:40 PM

Huh. Well, here's a really easy one (I can't think):

Shelob
Brego
Smaug
Huan

The Saucepan Man 02-28-2003 08:46 PM

Brego was the only man, or the only one of the Children of Iluvatar. The others were all creatures (spider, dragon and hound).

Durelin 03-01-2003 03:15 PM

Oops, not what I meant...let me adjust a little:

Shelob
Smaug
Arod
Huan

Try that! It is soooo easy! Maybe not as easy as my mistake before but...

Gil-Galad 03-01-2003 04:03 PM

refersh my memery what is arod?

Manardariel 03-01-2003 05:29 PM

Arod is one of the horses given to the three hunters by Eomer.

Smaug is the only creature, as opposed to animals. OR Arod is is the only one about who´s death we never hear.

Durelin 03-01-2003 08:15 PM

Excellent! The second guess was right. Also, Smaug is the only one without hair! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Your turn Manardariel!

Manardariel 03-04-2003 05:16 AM

Oh goody! And sorry it took me so long... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
Ok, here we go:

Varda
Aragorn
Gimli
Sam
Elrond

Gil-Galad 03-04-2003 07:27 AM

Varda was not at the council of Elrond or wasn't in the War of the Ring

Annunfuiniel 03-04-2003 07:56 AM

Gimli, he had nothing to do with stars.
Varda: well, has EVERYTHING to do with stars
Aragorn: star of Elendil (star of the north)
Sam: star-glass of Galadriel
Elrond: êl- 'star'

Manardariel 03-05-2003 10:53 AM

Both wrong! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir 03-05-2003 12:47 PM

Gimli had no spouse! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Aragorn-Arwen
Sam-Rosie
Varda-Manwë
Elrond-Celebrían

Manardariel 03-06-2003 09:45 AM

Yay! There you go! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir 03-08-2003 08:32 PM

Finarfin
Tar-Telemmaitë
Haldad
Elrond
Fëanor

Good luck! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

[ March 08, 2003: Message edited by: Tar-Palantir ]

Narya 03-13-2003 01:47 PM

Feanor is the only one who hasn´t got a daughter.

Tar-Palantir 03-13-2003 02:28 PM

Close enough Narya, all of them sired a Queen except for Fëanor.

Your turn. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Narya 03-14-2003 08:32 AM

Thank you,
the next on will be:

Finrod
Aragorn
Beren
Frodo

Gil-Galad 03-14-2003 06:01 PM

Frodo didn't have a child or spouse or frodo was only hobbit

Narya 03-14-2003 06:22 PM

No, that´s not what I was thinking of...

Annunfuiniel 03-15-2003 02:43 AM

Frodo is the only one whose death isn't described?

Manardariel 03-15-2003 03:17 AM

Frodo is the only one who´s not a king/ ruler´s heir?

Nooo, wait. Frodo is the only one who has nothing to do with Barahir´s ring???

Narya 03-15-2003 06:16 AM

Yep, that´s right, Manardariel.
Frodo had nothing to do with the Ring of Barahir.
Your turn...
