Fine

So... here's another one, a little bit changed to make it more interesting:

Who was the only one at Minas Tirith who could see the night breeze?

The Might · 05-20-2007, 02:01 PM

The Rohirrim, as Ugluk says they can see the night-breeze.

Legate of Amon Lanc · 05-20-2007, 02:04 PM

Ha-hahahaaa, wrong.

Only to note: we are in Character Trivia, so it's only one individual.

And to clear it up a little bit more, I'm speaking of someone who was in Minas Tirith at the time of siege.

Could it be Denethor? I know there was some talk in Minis Tirith about his Palantir.

Or Shadowfax? Sometimes animals are said to be scared by things like that...

Finduilas is right! Here's the evidence:

Shadowfax was a horse of Rohan and was in Minas Tirith. TM, you were close, but Uglúk said this about the horses, and not men

Finduilas, please take the thread.

Thanks.

I couldn't think of a good question, so this will have to do...

What is the name of the Elf that met Frodo, Sam, and Pippin in the Shire?
