Oh, I see where I've been unclear. When I was pointing back to this:

I meant 'in the same way, the answer is some subset of [your answer]'.

EDIT: For the new page:

1. - Monstrous craven lord
2. - A dullard slow
3. - Faithless lords untrue
4. - Robber
5. - Poor rejected beggar
6. - Fickle folk
7. - Wrought of lies and guile

So some subset of Noldor and Teleri? Silvan or Wood-Elves are the only ones that are an off-shoot branch of both.

Alternatively, both Noldor and Sindar (a subset of Teleri) eventually settled into Middle Earth. Then there is Glindur, who had both Noldor and Teleri blood. Or Orcs, who were presumably enslaved indiscriminately...

I think you're taking 'subset' too literally (or not literally enough?). 'Gwindor and Beleg' would be a subset of both Noldor and Sindar, as would 'the population of Rivendell'.

There is a very, very strong theme to this password; I suspect they'll all fall in rapid succession.

How about those Elves that Frodo and Sam saw that were returning to Aman?

Or maybe Gondolindrim, who were all about keeping the new arrivals there, but allowed dad and uncle to leave freely?

No, but you're getting closer.

I will offer a probably-useless hint and tell you that #6 is in the author's voice.

I would continue, but I don't know which guess is 'getting closer', the people of Gondolin or the departing Elves.

Unless it's them...

Fickleness was in fashion in Imladris at that time, and well-nigh all of Elrond's folk had turned to it.
Or maybe not.

Yes, yes, no, no, yes, yes.

MORGOTH - Monstrous craven lord (per Fingolfin)
ORODRETH - A dullard slow (per Curufin)
CELEGORM & CURUFIN - Faithless lords untrue (per the people of Nargothrond)
4. K - Robber

If we go by first letter, then Khamul is the best fit. If we go by non-first letter, then Lobelia is...

And wrought could also mean 'born'...

Lies and guile makes me think of Melkor's lies to the Noldor leaders, so is the word 'GULF' by any chance?

I am ashamed to say I that my memory of these direct quotes is sadly lacking. I feel like 7 might be applicable to Glaurung, but I also have a feeling that he doesn't quite fit the theme.

Then how do you explain this group not being on TG? Everything there is to know is on there, so why isn't it?

Furthermore, I only have core books (e.g. LOTR, Hobbit, Silm, CoH) and FoG. Things like Lay of Leithian and all that are not in my possession, so if you expect me to get the clues from anything I don't own, then know that it won't happen.
