How about a riddles thread?

I'll start with a simple one:

An elven king was I, of the house of Feanor, a ring bearer too, I went to Mordor, bearing Aiglos, yet never came back. Who am I?

Re: Riddles

An elven king was I: Alot of choices
of the house of Feanor: Still Alot
a ring bearer too: ohh, then it can only be Celebrimbor
I went to Mordor: Well I assume Celebrimbor did - After Sauron had used his dead body on a pole a his banner
bearing Aiglos: hmmmmmmmmmm..... That would be Gil-Galad from the house of Fingolfin or Finarfin depending on how you interpret HoME
yet never came back: That goes for the both of them!

Who am I: You are Gil-Galad but you have been knocked on the head and have forgotten your lineage <img src=laugh.gif ALT=":lol">

Re: Riddles

I see my mistake. When I said &quot;of the house of Feanor&quot;, I was thinking of the Noldor, when Feanor was high king of the Noldor. Anyway, you are right, the answer is Gil-Galad.

Re: Riddles

Feanor seems to fit.
He stole the ships of the teleri, he hated Morgoth for stealing the silmarils.
He was a father and husband, but his mother was dead.
He was responsible for the kinslaying, he was slain by balrogs.
He wasn't buried because his body turned to ash.

Ere iron was found or tree was hewn,
When young was mountain under moon;
Ere ring was made, or wrought was woe,
It walked the forests long ago.

Re: Riddles

My father sat long on Tyranny's peak.
My mother was beautiful and never weak.
My brother sought to be master of doom.
I died when I cast myself into the flume.

Sorry for the doggerel and also for losing this thread.

King I am
Of the Vanyar far away
Back in Aman
where forever I will stay!

Eldest am I,
But not to all,
Those pigheaded elves disagree,
They say the old fool,
With the blue coat is older.
I'll show them all! That idiot too!
Don't mess with me, the eldest!

O.k i think you are getting mixed up between Treebeard and Bombadil. See Bombadil said he was eldest and Treebeard said he was the oldest of all living things but treebeard didn't wear a blue coat. All the same i think it was Treebeard<img src=smile.gif ALT="">

"He turned to Eldarion, and gave into his hands the winged crown of Gondor and the sceptre of Arnor, and bade him farewell."</p>
