Well spoken
Welcome back, Turambar. Long time, no see.
You're right on all counts. Fancy having a stab at #1? 1. Castamir. Throw a station to nobleman. 2. Tarmenel. Sailor and other crewmembers, followed by short fairy, reach highest heaven 3. Faelivrin. Fail at everything initially, before fifty-four cut rings provide a pseudonym. 4. Tol Galen. Charge is reduced before storm over point, so island is reached. 5. Lóni. Advance, we hear, leads one to ill-starred restorer 6. Nimrodel. Mighty hunter (note 50) brings flower Password: Mellon. A straightforward end to a tortuous path. [EDIT]: Updated to take account of Saucepan's solution to the last clue.

Well, it's a 6 letter word ending in "AM" that is a nobleman (or means "nobleman"), but what it is exactly is escaping me.

You're right about the meaning, but not the number of letters or the word's ending.

Got it!
Throw = Cast a = a Station = Mir (the space station) Castamir was a Gondorian noble before seizing the throne.

Right . . . that's what I meant.
 Should I try to come up with one or has this game faded like a three age old wraith ?

At last another password
Yes, Saucepan, the first answer is Castamir.
I think it was just my clues that stalled the thread, Turambar. There seems to be plenty of interest in it.
