Tar-Aldarion was the only one to die of natural causes.

Thorin was the only one who was never in Valinor? Assuming Huan came from there and Voronwe once went there too....I don't remember what race he was from, but he was in Gondolin with Turgon's people, so he could have been a Noldor.

Frodo never killed anyone that we know of?
Frodo was the only one to bear a Ring of Power?
Huan was the only dog?
Frodo the only hobbit?
Voronwe the only elf?
Thorin the only dwarf?
Thorin the only one in your list to have a surname?

I sense that I have offended…and confused.

Here's a hint: three of them did––or rather, went on––something the fourth didn't.

Hope that might help you out.

But Voronwe did go on a quest. He went searching for Valinor. Just because he failed does not make it less of a quest.

Manwë is the only one who didn't lead a particular group of Elves?

Because Manwë is chief of the Valar, while all the rest are leaders of certain Elf races.

Well, all of them lived in Gondolin, except for Fingon. Is that what you mean? Then the catastrophic thing would be Nirnaeth Arnoedied, the Battle of Unnumbered Tears.

No, but you kinda got warmer when you mentioned the Fifth Battle, and it wasn't the catastrophic thing that happened.

Well, Húrin sure wasn’t resting after the Fifth Battle since he was, uh, captured and put on Thangorodrim?

Oh FACE! Make that,

Fingon
Turgon
Tuor
.......Forget it, I was trying to say they were resting in the great mound of the slain, but I can't find someone else, so, someone else start one. Oh, and the catastrophic event would be the War of Wrath.
Crap, Lomelindi, I thought I had people stumped.

I'll go.

Aragorn

Hurin
Thingol

It's probably easy, but ah, well. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Oh, it's not that Aragorn is the only one not in the Silmarillion.

Aragorn is the only one from the third age; Numenorean
Tuor is the only man to be counted among the Eldar
Hurin is the only one to meet Morgoth face to face
Thingol is the only elf, only one to see the Two Trees of Valinor while they are alive.

No, no, no, and no, but those are all very good answers.
Think relationships with other people.

Incanus, Hurin, and Peregrin all fought in wars against a dark power (Melkor and Gorthaur the Cruel) Goldberry did not.
