Isengard: Nazgul riders patrolling over this area were reported to have seen naked humans flying around, and performing acts which were formerly thought to be impossible in midair.

One elderly Ringwraith from Mordor was very cheered by this sight. See also Aragorn Dunedain and Arwen Evenstar.

Ungoliant
Infamous for aiding Melkor in the destruction of the Two Trees, and later tried to eat him. Urban rumors stated she eventually came to the deserts of Harad, and ate herself. This was belived by the general public, but HHGTME reveals the truth. Ungoliant has gone soft. Using *Flappo* as her stagename, she and other repentent creatures started a travelling circus. She makes webs that children play on as trampolines. If you are fortunate enough to encounter the Circus Ungolus, relax and have fun with Flappy, Bobbles the Balrog, and Wiggles the wight, and the Alatar and Pallando the Blues Brothers acrobats. The Circus Torech is currently on tour coming to Umbar, Khand, Rhun, Dale, Angrenost, and finally the Party Field at Hobbiton. {With special guest magician Gandalf}
Rivendell:
A scenic valley of elves. We recomend you to stop by for at least a night, but remember to come bearing friendliness. A large library chronicling all events of Middle-Earth awaits you, and there also are the Shards of Narsil. You will find Imladris on the Great East Road, just west of the Trollshaws. For those of you travellling from the east, it is due south of where the High Pass leads into Eriador. For our Snow Men visiting from the north, follow the edge of the Ettenmoors and down the Misty Mountains. From the south follow the outline of the Hitheglir from Eregoin.

*coupon in Guide*

For you wanderers out there, here's some deals you won't want to miss! We know it's hard to find an Inn or a meal while on the road, so use this coupon to save on room and board across Middle-Earth!

This allows the bearer three nights at the Prancing Pony Inn at Bree. Also includes ten free pints of beer, and a slab of beef. (Hobbits may substitue for Mushrooms)

Hobbits, dissapearence of:
Previously thought they had just became so good at hiding they had vanished into the background, it has now been shown that the decay of their civilization was due to reasons previously unsuspected.

It seems their cheerfulness and constant hunger was not a hobbit quality per-se, it was caused by the ingestion of "pipe-weed" and "mushrooms" which now are known under the name of "marihuana" and... right, mushrooms as well.

As modern science came to show that drugs are unhealthy for human- (and hobbit-) beings, the High King banned them. Poor hobbits, they had the second worst withdrawal syndrome ever. (After Aragorn, later known as King Eleassar was forced to abandon his life long companion. No, not Queen Arwen, but filth.)

Glirdan · 01-03-2006, 09:34 PM

Valinor: Home of the Valar and Ainu. Can be quite a nice place if your're not visiting when Melkor and Ungoliant decide to rampage through and destroy the trees of light. Beware of Mandos and his Doom and Halls. His Doom is quite evil and his Halls are dark and full of Dead Elves. Everywhere else is fine to visit as well so coem and enjoy yourself.

Balrogs fly by throwing themselves to the ground and missing.

Rather, they tried to fly and use their vestigial wings by throwing themselves from a high mountain to the ground and trying to miss it.

Unfortunately, it didn't seem to work. (See Echoriath, Zirakzigil.)

Legolas in spandex · 03-03-2006, 10:41 PM

Thranduil: Argued to be one of the baddest characters in the book, his short mentioning means nothing. He looks like Legolas, is even more skilled with a bow, has slight astigmatism, and listens to swing music and Def Leopard in his spare time. He is rumored to wear lucky underwear in battle, and is said to have streaked all of Mirkwood with his son Legolas after drinking a few too many pints.

Residents say he has the elven script for "sexy beast" tatooed on his rear.

Telperaca · 03-10-2006, 08:59 AM

Beanamir of Gondor- You rock! This is an excellent idea, one which I've not seen at any other LotR forums!

It's been a laugh reading some of these enteries.
So long, and thanks for all the laughs.

Elf-ears: Mostly pointless.

EDIT: But that could go for a lot of other things, too. Balrog-wings, Canonicity, and whatever-happened-to-Gollum-on-Mount-Doom debates, to name a few...
