The Truth about Gandalf emerges

Gil Galad was an Elven King, of him the harpers sadly sing

becomes

Gandalf was a sleek lad? My, no! Ha! He is perving thing, girls!

And you thought the uncloaking was bad.

From Werewolf...

The Seer dreamed of wolves. = we move the dress of leader.

The Seer found the leader was a wolf in sheeps clothing? (It's a stretch.)

The Hunter got a wolf. = Flunt, he goeth to war.

Guess the hunter was Flunt.

The wolves win! = The W's now live!

Everone knows that W stands for wolf.

Who or what is Tom Bombadil?

Well, I think the answer quite obvious, for his name tells all:

Tom Bombadil = Idl[e] atom bomb.

Well, he's certainly caused an explosion in Fordim's poll.

Some tobacco inspired anagrams...

Gandalf, where is he from? A smoky place, Fagland.

Since Frodo Baggins quit smoking he's been giving away all the duty free he picked up in Mordor, so he's become something of a big fags donor.

And drink...

Legolas has found a new resource in Mirkwood, ale logs.

Meriadoc has been importing interesting new drinks from China, the most popular being Mao Cider.

Saucepan, did you make that yourself, or did you use that generator thingy they were talking about earlier? Either way, that's really awesome.

The Saucepan Man - mace hunts an ape

He's a weapon who doesn't like monkeys.

Or perhaps a new ending to the famous Opera?

Arrows 'nd Bows= borrows dawns. Take from it what you will, but I thought it was a rather poetic description of this thread.

How Do You Imagine Other Bders?=intermediary show dough oboe. A wacky guess helps end an argument over how a certain Bder looks and acts in 'real' life.

This might not wound really good but I think that Gandalf would equate to *** Land, which I really felt he was a part of in the beginning of my quest through LOTR.

Great thread none the less, even if there is not much worth into thinking of anagrams for character names, a good way to alleviate the felling still.

The Might=height tm (don't know how to put the tm in a little circle at the top...)

Guard of the Citadel=huge orc fatal-tided (if I only knew what it means to fatal-tide, I would do it too)

elbenprincess=nice lens b press
