It was Forweg, but no bonus pionts for me [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
I can't think of it off the top of my head.

Lindolirian · 12-13-2002, 04:06 PM

He was in the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, but he fled and was branded a coward. Let the points go to Pallando, I was just furthering the info.

Pallando B.C · 12-13-2002, 05:49 PM

Thanks, Lindolirian.

What plant name in The Lord of the Rings that is said to be of the Valinorean Language.

Lindolirian · 12-13-2002, 11:32 PM

Asëa aranion, also known as athelas or kingsfoil.

Pallando B.C · 12-14-2002, 07:15 PM

Well Done, Lindolirian. Your turn

Lindolirian · 12-15-2002, 12:47 PM

How many stars make up the Valacirca?

Lindolirian · 06-13-2004, 05:40 PM

Name the three mariners who accompanied Eärendil on his vogages.

NightKnight · 06-13-2004, 05:51 PM

Falathar, Erellont and Aerandir.

Lindolirian · 06-13-2004, 05:52 PM

Of course.

NightKnight · 06-13-2004, 05:54 PM

Why was Amon Rûdh called Bar-en-Danwedh?

Lindolirian · 06-13-2004, 05:57 PM

It was called the House of Ransom originally because Mim was saving his own life by showing Turin and his band the way in. But when they learned that Khim, Mim's son had died, Turin said, "Now, Bar-en-Danwedh this house shall be called in truth..."

Pallando B.C · 12-15-2002, 06:22 PM

13?

Aylwen Dreamsong · 12-15-2002, 06:25 PM

Seven, Valacirca also translates in Quenya to "Sickle of the Valar". The Valacirca was basically our Great Bear.

Lindolirian · 12-15-2002, 07:37 PM

Correct, Aylwen.

Aylwen Dreamsong · 12-15-2002, 08:41 PM

What was the name of the man who betrayed the hiding place of Barahir and co., and how/why did he tell?

Pallando B.C · 12-15-2002, 08:58 PM

Gorlim son of Angrim told of the hidding place of Barahir.

He did this while in the custody of Sauron. He told of the hidding place in exchange for his freedom with his lost wife Eilinel.

Aylwen Dreamsong · 12-16-2002, 06:48 AM

Correct. Your turn.

Pallando B.C · 12-16-2002, 06:25 PM

Who was the first person (recorded) to recieve lembas ?

[ December 16, 2002: Message edited by: Pallando B.C ]

Lindolirian · 12-16-2002, 07:52 PM

Just a guess... Beleg?

Pallando B.C · 12-16-2002, 08:01 PM

Good guess, Lindolirian. Melian gave lembas to Beleg to aid him in his search for Turin.

Your go!

Lindolirian · 12-16-2002, 08:38 PM

Holy Elvish Twinkies!! Ah... good guess...

Who drove the Dwarves from Mount Dolmed?

Pallando B.C · 12-16-2002, 09:23 PM

I seem to recall it may have been the Shepherds of the Trees?

But I am guessing like you, Lindolirian

Lindolirian · 12-17-2002, 02:33 PM

Yes, it was the Ents.

Pallando B.C · 12-17-2002, 09:11 PM

What substance in the House of Tulkas made out of?

Lindolirian · 12-21-2002, 03:32 PM

Bronze perhaps, or is that just the Tower?

Pallando B.C · 12-21-2002, 06:30 PM

Bronze is correct, Lindolirian

Lindolirian · 12-23-2002, 02:21 PM

Very good...
What is the Sindarin name for Ossë?

Beren87 · 12-23-2002, 02:53 PM

Gaerys. [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

Lindolirian · 12-23-2002, 04:04 PM

Correct.

Beren87 · 12-23-2002, 04:33 PM

Lovely!

Where did Orome ride that day before finding the Elves?

Lindolirian · 12-23-2002, 04:35 PM

He rode north of the Inland Sea of Helcar and near the Orocarni when Nahar neighed because he heard the Elvish singing.

Beren87 · 12-26-2002, 03:55 PM

You are correct!

Lindolirian · 12-27-2002, 07:03 PM

Whose death was the spark that ignited the Fifth Battle?

tom bombariffic · 12-28-2002, 05:09 PM

T'was Gelmir of Nargothrond was't not?

[ December 28, 2002: Message edited by: tom bombariffic ]

Lindolirian · 12-28-2002, 06:54 PM

tom bombariffic · 12-29-2002, 05:30 AM

Who led the forces of the Valar in the War of Wrath?

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 10:21 AM

Eonwë herald of Manwë.

tom bombariffic · 12-29-2002, 11:40 AM

Lindolirian · 12-29-2002, 09:28 PM

What are the individual names (in order) of the gates that bar the Orfalch Echor?

Pallando B.C · 12-29-2002, 09:34 PM

I think they are: The Gate of Wood, the Gate of Stone, the Gate of Bronze, the Gate of Writhen Iron, the Gate of Silver, the Golden Gate and the Gate of Steel.
