Not really...
Actually I was first asked this on another site.
There the question was the same just 535 instead of 536.
I managed to find those with 536, but nobody with 535.After looking for some time, the person told me it was a typo and it should have been 536 instead of 535...that was annoying

I knew it. I overlooked it. The Dwarves were among my first thoughts and I was not clever enough to look up if there are any without the "I." or "II." in their names who have the same name. *sigh*

Of course, Oin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:

Great, this was surely a braincooker, if you understand what I mean. :D A good training. You know how I did it? I was reading J.C.A.Tyler's Tolkien Companion and always stopping and checking when I saw two same names together. Fortunately, I stopped at G, and from Gloin it was not so far...

Yeah, the problem is you have several kings of Gondor/Arnor/Numenor who sometimes fit the first part, but never the second one
Good job! :)

Something easier now...
 

Who was the fairest of all elven princes?

I am not sure...maybe Fingolfin?

Nope. :p

i would say Fingon, but the fan-girl inside me would have to say Legolas perhaps...

Finrod Felagund?

We have a winner!
 

Lommy got it! Finrod it was.
Just to support this:
His father Finarfin was called the fairest of Finwë's sons, and his son Finrod was called the fairest of the elven princes.
I knew fan girls might protest (although I didn't expect it right from you Gil-Galad :D ), but the Professor said it clear ;)

Congratulations, Lommy! Your turn now.

It was just a guess...! :D

But, Legate, you know I'm a Finrod fangirl, so it was pretty easy... ;)

Who was the Lalwendë in Tolkien's writings?

Lalwende means "laughing maiden"


and she was the Third child of Finwe and Indis.

so i guess she was the laughing maiden?

Correct, I guess. (I'm not 100% sure about her being the 3rd child, but I'm sure she was their child... :rolleyes: )

So, please take the thread, Gil. :)

Alrighty...


What was the Poetic Title of the lord of the skies?


its somewhat easy...

Almost forgot about this thread, but I guess it's never to late to answer:

Sulimo I suppose

Or the Elder King. But Súlimo is far more poetic, I think...

close, but not exact! guess again!

I guess that "Lord of the Breath of Arda" does sound more poteic

there you go TM

A new one:
Who was the first King of Gondor to die childless`?

That was Falastur, right?

Yes...guess it was kind of hard to have kids if you're wife is Beruthiel

Yeah, hard indeed. ;)

Ok, so tell me the name of the Rohirrim king in whose time Saruman comes to Isengard.

It was at Frealaf's corronation that Saruman first appeared and also gained the king's approval.

Yep, so it was. Go ahead.

Who was the last to try to go past the Dark Door before the War of the Ring?

Baldor son of Brego?

Yes

Okay, so here goes another.
 

Who built the sentinels of Argonath?

Romendacil II according to Appendix A of LotR

Well the Numenoreans did... but do you mean which King was Reigning during its building?

King Romendacil II was at time the regent...

EDIT: X-Posted with TM only because i decided to research it... bah humbug

Of course, Rómendacil II, correct. It was far easier than I thought. Now, choose between yourselves. :) Well, maybe if we take it in the most basic line, TM has the two-minute bonus, so... But anyway, great job of both of you :cool:

Yay!

Anyway, who managed to save Gondor by first winning in the South, soon after in the North too?

King Earnur i'm pretty sure... he defeated the Wainriders then about 10 years later he drove the Witch-King out of Arnor with Glorfindel

Not really the answer I was looking for, but you're close

or maybe i mean Earnil, who defeated the Haradrim then went north and defeated the Easterlings

Yes, Earnil is the one I had in mind.

another easy one...


Who was the last king of the North?

Arvedui, eh?

I'd say Earendur, since Arvedui was the last king of Arthedain, while Earendur was the last king of the whole northern kingdom

hmmm... i was meaning Arvedui mainly because he was there and the last of the northern line though Earendur claimed the northern kingdom... but i will have to go with Legate so we can get a change of people
