I'd be the Lord of the Nazgul because i) He's virtually immortal ii) He taught Earnur that brain is more important than brawn (going to Minas Morgul for a duel, is it possible to be more stupid?) I... |

Here's a quote from the Tolkien Bestiary. It should be quite reliable. "Barrow-Wights: West of the Brandywine River beyond the Old Forest were the Barrow-Downs, the most ancient burial ground of... |

I was feeling very unoriginal so I picked Fenrir, the name of Loki's wolf son in Norse myth. I picked it because: a)It starts with the same letter as my name in real life. b)I like the sound of... |

UT or the appendixes of tLotR would be your best bet for information on the seven. We know very little about the seven rings of the dwarves and even less about the nine so don't expect anything very... |

Thanks, Elanor. I didn't know that, I'll certainly look for it. The quality of sound on the record isn't as good as a CD or casette would be. |

The album I have is the music to the BBC radio adaptation of Lord of the Rings. It isn't available any more, my mother bought it around 1981. The music itself is very beautiful, it has been compared... |

I think it mentions that the Nazgul lost their physical shape and were swept far into the east with their master. |

I agree with Mister Underhill and Lomion. It says that the Nazgul became suddenly clear and ommited to mention that they looked as if they had been busy decomposing for the past few months. In other... |

I'll try to explain my earlier post.<P>I certainly agree with many of the changes. Cutting out the Old Forest made sense since it was admitted by Tolkien to be a side adventure, an addition to please... |

I can't really answer that one but in UT it says that the WK established a camp at Andrath where the Greenway passes in a defile between the Barrow-downs and the South Downs. From there some others... |

While Eru does take the good side e.g. Isildur, he doesn't make it easy for them. Maybe letting the Witch-King bind mortal spirits to the downs was his way of making things tougher for the people of... |

I don't think so, Tolkien does state that Merry's sword did remove the enchantment that held his sinews together. And I find it hard to believe that Angmar never felt fear. After all, he didn't... |
