Beren87 · 01-30-2003, 11:45 PM

Ah, not a balrog....but still closer.

Ultimatejoe · 01-31-2003, 09:57 AM

Finrod is the only one to face Sauron?

Russandol · 02-01-2003, 04:30 PM

Finrod was the only one who didn't have any children?

Manardariel · 02-08-2003, 05:52 PM

Weeezzz, this is hard....Beren87, a hint, maybe?

elven maiden Earwen · 02-16-2003, 07:41 PM

Hey Beren87 plese give us a hint

Rochelle · 02-16-2003, 07:55 PM

Finrod was the only one who was not slain or had family slain by Morgoth? I think it was mentioned before, but Finrod also did not fight in the Unnumbered Tears.

elven maiden Earwen · 02-24-2003, 11:43 AM

Beren87 please can we have a hint!!!!

Lindolirian · 02-25-2003, 06:22 PM

Okay... This one is waaaay past 10 days.

Beren
Hurin
Azog
Gimli
Androg

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-25-2003, 10:43 PM

Gimli is the odd one out, since all the others killed Dwarves and Gimli is a Dwarf.

Beren attacked the Dwarves of Nogrod who had killed Thingol and stolen Nauglamir.

Hurin killed the Petty Dwarf, Mim.

Azog was on Orcish king who no doubt killed many Dwarves, including Thror.

Of Androg, I have no idea, but he sounds like an Orc and therefore a Dwarf-killer.

Btw Lindolirian, your reply is awaited on the "What doesn't belong" thread.

Lindolirian · 02-26-2003, 03:40 PM

You are correct. Androg was the companion of Túrin who shot Khîm, Mîm's son.

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-26-2003, 05:20 PM

OK. This is probably quite easy, but here goes:

Bilbo Baggins
Thorin Oakenshield
Gandalf the Grey
Legolas Greenleaf
Aragorn
Peregrine Took

elven maiden Earwen · 02-26-2003, 05:31 PM

pip because he hasnt been to the woods of Mirkwood.

Tar-Palantir · 02-26-2003, 07:41 PM

Legolas has never been to the Shire.

[ February 26, 2003: Message edited by: Tar-Palantir ]

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-27-2003, 09:16 PM

Nope. It's not about where any of them went. It's about something that five of them did that one did not.

elven maiden Earwen · 02-27-2003, 11:23 PM

everyone but legolas died.Gandalf died in Moria and returned to life and the rest were mortal except legolas?

Durelin · 02-28-2003, 07:13 PM

Bilbo never killed an orc while the rest of them did? Well, I think Bilbo only killed spiders, right?

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-28-2003, 08:13 PM

Nope. I'm thinking more about their time off from killing orcs and the like ...

Durelin · 02-28-2003, 08:29 PM

Oh, duh! Smoke pipeweed! Legolas is the only one that doesn't smoke pipeweed! Am I right?

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-28-2003, 08:32 PM

Of course you are. Mind you, I probably could have included every non-Elf in the list.

Funny, Elves are the ones who live forever and aren't affected by disease, and yet they are the ones who don't smoke. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Durelin · 02-28-2003, 08:40 PM

Huh. Well, here's a really easy one (I can't think):

Shelob
Brego
Smaug
Huan

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-28-2003, 08:46 PM

Brego was the only man, or the only one of the Children of Iluvatar. The others were all creatures (spider, dragon and hound).

Durelin · 03-01-2003, 03:15 PM

Oops, not what I meant...let me adjust a little:

Shelob
Smaug
Arod
Huan

Try that! It is soooo easy! Maybe not as easy as my mistake before but...

Gil-Galad · 03-01-2003, 04:03 PM

refersh my memery what is arod?

Manardariel · 03-01-2003, 05:29 PM

Arod is one of the horses given to the three hunters by Eomer.

Smaug is the only creature, as opposed to animals. OR Arod is is the only one about who´s death we never hear.

Durelin · 03-01-2003, 08:15 PM

Excellent! The second guess was right. Also, Smaug is the only one without hair! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Your turn Manardariel!

Manardariel · 03-04-2003, 05:16 AM

Oh goody! And sorry it took me so long... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
Ok, here we go:

Varda
Aragorn
Gimli
Sam
Elrond

Gil-Galad · 03-04-2003, 07:27 AM

Varda was not at the council of Elrond or wasn't in the War of the Ring

Annunfuiniel · 03-04-2003, 07:56 AM

Gimli, he had nothing to do with stars.
Varda: well, has EVERYTHING to do with stars
Aragorn: star of Elendil (star of the north)
Sam: star-glass of Galadriel
Elrond: êl- 'star'

Manardariel · 03-05-2003, 10:53 AM

Both wrong! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir · 03-05-2003, 12:47 PM

Gimli had no spouse! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Aragorn-Arwen
Sam-Rosie
Varda-Manwë
Elrond-Celebrían

Manardariel · 03-06-2003, 09:45 AM

Yay! There you go! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir · 03-08-2003, 08:32 PM

Finarfin
Tar-Telemmaitë
Haldad
Elrond
Fëanor

Good luck! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

[ March 08, 2003: Message edited by: Tar-Palantir ]

Narya · 03-13-2003, 01:47 PM

Feanor is the only one who hasn´t got a daughter.

Tar-Palantir · 03-13-2003, 02:28 PM

Close enough Narya, all of them sired a Queen except for Fëanor.

Your turn. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Narya · 03-14-2003, 08:32 AM

Thank you,
the next on will be:

Finrod
Aragorn
Beren
Frodo

Gil-Galad · 03-14-2003, 06:01 PM

Frodo didn't have a child or spouse or frodo was only hobbit

Narya · 03-14-2003, 06:22 PM

No, that´s not what I was thinking of...

Annunfuiniel · 03-15-2003, 02:43 AM

Frodo is the only one whose death isn't described?

Manardariel · 03-15-2003, 03:17 AM

Frodo is the only one who´s not a king/ ruler´s heir?

Nooo, wait. Frodo is the only one who has nothing to do with Barahir´s ring???

Narya · 03-15-2003, 06:16 AM

Yep, that´s right, Manardariel.
Frodo had nothing to do with the Ring of Barahir.
Your turn...
