Númenórean Trivia
 

This is just for questions about the Númenóreans. Please post questions and answers in Bold
Who was the brother of Parmaitë?

Men of Numenor
is the thread which is exactly liek this one! now for sauceman to do his job!... sauceman? hello? here i goe to fidn him again...

Much as it may surprise you, Gil, I do not lurk on-line every hour of the day. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Actually, the other thread is for questions on the people of Numenor, whereas this looks to be a trivia game about Numenor generally. Although this one will inevitably involve questions about the people of Numenor, there is nevertheless a difference. Since it is not a duplicate, therefore, I will leave this thread open.

So, nobody's question stands (if you take my meaning [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ).

Earendur?

Yes. You can ask questions about Númenórean women here and questions about Númenórë itself here, like its geography, the places in it and other names for it etc.

Sorry to put myself at risk of sounding a smartarse, but what about questions on Numenorian men?

May I ask a question since Lord of Angmar hasn't .
What was given to Erendis as a betrothal gift?

A diamond?

Sorry no that was given to her before they became betrothed.

As a betrothal gift, Erendis was givin a portion of land in Emerie, where was built for her a white house.

Well done Iaurhirwen! The thread is yours.

Oh, WoW! The first time I ever answer a question on the Downs and I get it right [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
*Starts hyperventalating*

Anyhoo . . . . .
During what year did Sauron move and erect a stronghold in the land now known as Mordor to counteract the Númenórean landings at Harad?

The year 1000 of the Second Age?

Yep

You're up

Hate to be a negative ned, or in this case a negative ent, but...10 DAY RULE!!!! New question: How many Numenorian KINGS started their name with TAR?

I think I got them all: 15

Um...i don't think so. Doulbe check. If you can prove me wrong, it's your go. Otherwise, someone please give the correct answer!

1. Tar-Amandil
2. Tar-Elendil
3. Tar-Meneldur
4. Tar-Aldarion
5. Tar-Anárion
6. Tar-Súrton
7. Tar-Minastir
8. Tar-Ciryatan
9. Tar-Antanimar the Great
10. Tar-Ancalimon
11. Tar-Telemmaitë
12. Tar-Alcarin
13. Tar-Calmacil
14. Tar-Palantir – who changed his name from Ar-Inziladûn

I wasn’t sure if you were including Elros Tar-Minyatur in that group. If so, 15, if not 14. If I still didn’t get it, hint please as to what I’m missing.
:smokin:

*Bump*

I think Iaurhirwen has it.

Ok, I'm back:)

Now for a question . . . . . . .

What was the name of the Númenorean king who first sent aid to Gil-Galad and what was his number in secession (i.e. 1st king, 2nd king)

Was it Tar-Minastir, 11th King of Numenor?

Correct. Your turn.

Rangers of the North wore what on their left shoulder? Full description, please.

sorry i beleive yoru question is un-orthodox, Numenorean, even though rangers wre numenore, they weren't called that, so plz stick with numenore

I think that this thread can afford to be a little flexible, so let's go ahead with this question.

Please try to keep the questions more directly related to Númenor in the future, though.

Sorry all. Thanks for the leniency, Saucepan Man.:)

Soo...I'm assuming we can answer this one.

The Dunedain wore silver, five-pointed stars on their left shoulders if I remember aright.

uhhh.....i thought it was the symbol of Arnor...which i cannot remember

You got it, Arvedui. A silver star shaped like a rayed star.

Note: next time it is my turn...I will extend an enormous effort to stay within guidelines of the thread!:D

Thanks. Ok, sticking with Numenor now...

Which Numenorian King first spoke out against the ban of the Valar?

That would be Tar-Atanamir

Corect.

I'm sick and to tired to look for a hard one so:

What was Elros's high-elven name?

Hope you feel better soon...

And, his king-name was Tar-Minyatur. Or maybe you're looking for Elerossë, his name in Quenya?

Tar-Minatar(sp?) is his numernorean name... isn't elros his high-elven name though?

Miriel has it.

Well, I can't think of anything, so I'll give you a nice easy one. ;)

Who called Ancalimë 'great eyes'?

Would that be Hallacar?

Nope.

Is it Aldarion?
