Fingolfin! Too many F names :rolleyes: By mortal I meant anything that is born to Middle Earth (Men, Dwarves, Elves) and not Ainu (Vala and Maiar). If you can kill it, it ain't immortal. :D |

Thinking about it, I'll put a vote in for dragons as the Dwarves external opposite. Dragons are creatures of the air while Dwarves are being of the earth. Their common link is fire. I don't... |
