I decided to check out one our zaniest 'Downers, hoping to get an insight into his mind.

No such luck.

Nilpaurion Felagund came up as lifeguard plan union.

So. Is he out there to found a Union to improve the Employee Plans of lifeguards?

I thought the moment was right.....

The Barrow Wight=growth wait herb

From this I must conclude that The Barrow Wight has a herb garden, and he is waiting for his delicious plants to grow.

Er, is there something that you’re not telling us, Eomer …

Fordim Hedgethistle = This the model fridge.

Hey, he’s a cool guy!

HerenIstarion = Er, I hint reason

You only hint? Surely not.

Hookbill the Goomba = Ok, heal Hobbit gloom

It must be all those Gandalf Uncloaked jokes cheering them up.

The Only Real Estel = The one last yeller.

But what’s he yelling about?

The Barrow-Wight = Hit warthog brew

He needs the strong stuff to keep the site going.

Fordim Hedgethistle = I, FH, smote the griddle.

encaitare = A near cite.

Can't see the griddle anyway.

mormegil = Morg Mile.

A street of only morgues.

Oddwen = Do down.

Is here a lot.

Firefoot
= Root fife.

Plays a earthy insturment.

Kuruharan
= Uh, an ark U R (Sorry, not very good. I need sleep.)

Well, I guess Yoda thinks he's an ark.

Anagrams are great!

the guy who be short = Worthy bush Goethe
He's quite a poet. Not sure what he's doing in a bush, though.

Feanor of the Peredhil = Fieldfare then hooper [swan]
Describes her Werewolf tactics: a witty loudmouth.

Estelyn Telcontar = Yeller contestant
...?

Chat Skwerl = Halts wreck
Rather fitting, I think.

dancing spawn of ungoliant = Awful posting cannonading
That's self-explanatory.

Eomer of the Rohirrim=thereof heir om mirror

Eomer is clearly the lost prince of all Buddhists...

Cailin seems to be without anagrams. Shame I was trying to investigate the roots of their mysterious werewolfing relationship...how about...

Cailin is a wolf=fiasco wail nil

Hmm...

Moving onto Tolkien:

Maeglin loves Idril=revealing slim idol (!)

Great thread idea, Formendacil! Thinking of anagrams takes time, unfortunately, so I don't yet have any to contribute, but I believe no one has mentioned the title anagram yet. It's so easy once you know, but did have me puzzled for a bit. Barrow Downs...

Barrow downs real meaning is Snob word war
I guess this helps to explain a lot

And to the victor of the snob word war goes their choice of a brown sword or their own bar sword
