Re: Yep!

King of the eagles. Another name for Thorondor it seems.

Re: Yep!

On the gandalf question earlier:
Tharkûn means &quot;Staff-man&quot;
And Gandalf is in UT translated &quot;Elf-of-the-wand&quot;

If it has any interest???

Re: Yep!

Was that the elf who liked to sit on his back porch?

Or it was the moniker of Elendil, meaning &quot;faithful&quot;.

You're good, Beregond. I was thinking of Thorin and Felagund but I'm pretty sure you're right about the unnamed minstrel. In fact, didn't he do some stand-up comedy too?

OK you ask.

I'm guessing it's an elf or dwarf or ent whose name means &quot;Scary&quot; in elvish or dwarvish or entish. Or else it's Telchar.

Is Scary a place in the Shire? I seem to remember that Fatty Bolger led a band of rebels against the ruffians there.
