Gil-galad got it. It was the Dead Men of Dunharrow.

Helm Hammerhand.
The Rohirrim went to the mountains for safety when their land was invaded by Dunlendings. Helm had a great horn and sounded it going to battle. Well...the men of Rohan rode to battle because they were Horse-lords. Hammerhand was the name given him because on his ability to kill with one blow of his fist.

Pippin? Because he went to the misty mts. and fought with boromir, then he rode to pelenor fields? It's wrong, but it's still a guess!

It's Eomer.
Went to the mountains (when defending Helm's Deep) Fought with the horn in his ears (the last charge at Helm's Deep, when the horn of Helm Hammerhand was blowing) Rode to the fields (rode to the Battle of the Pelennor Fields) His name is a trait of his (his name means "horse-famous" and he was indeed famous) leading the one of the third (he was one of the three Marshals of the Riddermark and during the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, was one of the three "forces" who penned the Orcs in and slaughtered them; the others were Aragorn and the Grey Company from the quays and Imrahil and his Knights from Minas Tirith itself)

Grimbold! Actually, we don't know if he fought at Helm's Deep; he is first mentioned in ROTK. He did fight at Helm's Deep, and he led one of the three eoreds.

Symestreem has it! good job, i actually think it wasn't that hard
(and for movie fans, you can see Grimbold in TTT, when the elves come, he says "get the king" then he yells "open the gate!", and i also saw him in rotk movie as well...)

I seriously considered letting someone else take the thread, because I'm not very good at this. But I decided that would be yellow. So I apologize if this is weird or cryptic.
I had seven sons, and some say other children. My family was rather scandalized at this. Some of my friends betrayed me and injured my children. My children are older than those who, though good, would do them harm. |

Incorrect, Arvedui II.
Just for clarity...I am going to post the original riddle with the additional hint given later...all in one post. I am the only one, yet just one of many. with 99 of mine, I made one, with 104 of mine, I made another one my two had none. at 116 of his, I was made, he carried the last one of its kind. Who am I?

Could it be Elrond?
I'm not sure about this, but it could be that he got one son when he was 99 and one at 104. His two sons had no children (that i have heard of), Earendil was 116 when he was born, and he bore the only remaining Silmaril.

Could it be Dis daughter of Thrain? She is the only dwarf-woman mentioned in the books, and the years work out. Also, her father carried the last dwarf-ring.
