Sorry it's been so long, I had forgotten this thread. I believe the answer was dwarf - because Turin, the "famous Man of the First Age" in the hint, killed many men and orcs, Glaurung the dragon, and (accidentally) Beleg the elf - but is not recorded as killing any dwarfs. I think.
Daniel Telcontar mentioned Turin, so he can ask one.
