NightKnight has just left Hobbiton.
First time when Beleg was imprisoned by Turin's comrades and they started their outlaw band, and then when Beleg saved him from the orcs and was killed. So two.

Three. I think it was when he found Turin with the outlaws, then he met him another time on Amon Rudh and the last time at the orc camp when Turin killed him.

His nickname for Sador was Labadal, which means Hopafoot.

One more question; a tie seems fairly likely...

10. Describe the relationship between Túrin and Saeros.

They didn't like each other, to say the least. Saeros disliked Turin because he grudged him Thingol's favour, and Turin hated Saeros because of his animosity towards him, and especially his words against Morwen.

Fingolfin's answer is fine.

That makes it a tie between Fingolfin and Lindolirian. This is a tiebreaker question for those two only.

***Exactly how long was it from the time that Morwen and Nienor fled Dor-lomin and Túrin came back?

Snaga means slave, and is used to refer to lesser orcs of Isengard and Mordor. Uruks especially use the phrase!

BTW, I thought about the maia answer, but I though maia would be something bigger like Balrogs!

Sorry for the delay...

Boldog was an orcish hróa inhabited by a corrupted Maiar. So yes, it's right, Perky.

Thorongil- 1
Firefoot- 1
Nilpaurion F - 1
Perky E- 1

5. How is that the goblins of the Misty Mts. in the Hobbit are able to recognize Orcrist and Glamdring, swords that were used in Gondolin more than six thousand years ago?
