Beleriand Bafflers
 

This game is alike to one I was told in a Geography lesson. I have adapted it slightly and made it a little easier. It is easy if you happen to have a map of Beleriand close at hand
Firstly, here are the rules;

1) Think of a place or landmark in Beleriand ( EDDIT: Scrub that, Anywhere in M-E) but do not say it until some one has guessed it (obviously)
2) Name the terrain, (e.g, mountains, plain, forest ect..)
3) Say one event that happened there or one fact about it. (This can be very minor, but specific to that place, you cannot say, "some one had their lunch there" as that could be anywhere.)

Got that?
If not, here's an example,

Q) Terrain = mountainous,
Event / fact = Where Celegorm and Curufin dwelt south of the pass of Aglon.

A) Himlad

Is that clear? Hope so.


Right, first one,
Terrain = wet
events / fact = There are 7 rivers.

Ossiriand?

Correct, you win a fabulous new tombstone for your barrow...
Take it away. :cool: :smokin:

Haha, thanks!

Terrain: forest
Event: Slaying of the golden

"The Golden" -- meaning Glaurung Smaug and a Numenorian King (forgot his name...)?

Brethil.

yep, Brethil it is.

darnit i wasn't fast enough. I'll try for the next one then...

Take it away Nilpaurion

Ako naman!
 

Terrain: island
Event: death of the Faithful

Tol Sirion?

Númenor?

Tol Eressea?

Sorry for the ambiguity.
 

But NK got it, anyway.

How nice, a new thread to fiddle with... :p

Terrain: Wet
Event: Awakening of the doomed

Cuivienen?

Hildórien?

I figured those two guesses would come first, and they are both WRONG! ;)

Menengroth?

Númenor?

Neither.

Wild guess, Nargothrond?

No. Try to figure out who "the doomed" is.

Hmm...it could be the Witch King...but where was he born? Minas Tirith?

The Witch King of Angmar was most probably born in Angmar.


If Turin is the doomed, then I will guess Taur-nu-Fuin where He awoke from the slumber set by the orcs and slew Beleg in wrath. Or perhaps it is the Forest of Brethil where Nienor awoke from her dumbness of the Dragon spell.
:smokin:

Cabed-en-Aras?

Hookbill the Goomba is quite close. Turin is indeed the "doomed" I'm looking for.

Eithel Ivrin?

Aye-aye, captain Firefoot. ;)

Thanks. :)

Terrain: Mountainous
Event: Death of the Golden-haired.

Cristhorn, where Glorfindel died?

Yep.

Nope.

Ard-galen aka Anfauglith?

The Green hills and grey stone of The Barrow Downs? ;)
