Those giant eagle birds? Like the one that saved bilbo and co in The Hobbit? And the one that rescued Fingolfin's body from Angband?

Is it a Man? - No Is it an Elf? - No Is it an olvar? - No (nor a plant by any other name )Is it a Dwarf? - No Is it a Maia? - No Female? - No Is it a Vala? - No Manwë? - See above Is it an Orc? - No Is it a giant eagle? - No Is it Tom Bombadil? - No Is it an evil creature/individual? - Not evil, but definitely a creature, and quite individual Is it in The Hobbit? - No Did he live in the First Age? - Actually, scrap what I said above and make that a clear NO. I was just being nasty and allowing for a crazy theory which isn't substantiated by anything in the book. Sorry for any confusion this may have caused. Did he take part in LotR? - Yes!!! Is he a bird? - No Ent? - No Gollum? - No Is he a wose? - We've established above that he's not a Man, which would include the Woses (or Drú-edain); therefore obviously No. Did it help the fellowship in any way? - Yes, I think you could say he was helpful to some of them.

(This is getting rather too long to repeat all the Q&A every time, I trust you're all able to look 'em up above)
Is it Shadowfax? - No, but getting warmer!

Oliphaunt? - No
Did it pass the dark door? - I suppose you mean the entrance to the Paths of the Dead? No, it (or he) came nowhere near the place.

...and we have a winner!
Well done, BG - Fatty Lumpkin it is! Take the thread! (To clear up the First Age ambivalence up there: considering that Bombadil has been around for a long, long time and we're never told how old Fatty was, I had that madcap idea that Iarwain Ben-adar's mount could perhaps have been some equally enigmatic long-lived beast along the lines of e.g. Huan or Thorondor; but there's really nothing pointing in that direction beyond his connection with ole Bombadillo, and nothing indicating that he was anything but a regular pony. Sorry if anybody was led astray!)

Derp. I just realized how stupid my guess was. That's what I get for not reading more carefully. *blushes*
