Yes, you do have to name the slayer, my mistake. Unfortunately, I cannot remember who his prophecized slayer would be, but I shall take a stab at it: Olorin?

That was a nice question, nobody. Very tricksy.

fyi, he wasn't really killed, just made into a weaker spirit, since he was connected with the ring...

and when Numenore was destroyed, thats when sauron lost his first form and fled too mordor, so he was kinda killed then too, just made into a weaker spirit till his strength regained

It has already been agreed upon that Sauron never truly 'died' until he was slain in the Dagor Dagorath, and then for all intents and purposes he truly was 'dead.'

Nobody's been here for a while now, so I'll take it:

Who killed Curufinwë, and when?

Gothmog, during the Battle Under the Stars (Dagor-nuin-Giliath, the 2nd battle in the Wars of Beleriand), after he rode ahead of his army in pursuit of Orcs.

Oooh, that's an evil one. He was lost during the assault on Doriath by the sons of Feanor; the servants of Celegorm seized him and his brother Elurin and left them to starve in the forest. Maedhros searched for them, but they were never found.
Is that okay?

I assume you mean the king of Cardolan, in that case he was killed fighting against Angmar. The other Ostoher, king of Gondor, died of old age.

He was under such torment due to holding a Silmaril, he cast himself into a fire-filled chasm in the earth.

Um ... well, I'm Ruitha ... lost her password and only had entered my old email address ... so *shrugs* I can't prove it, so you'd maybe be best to do another, NightKnight, and give me a chance to get it under this name. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

From Appendix A, II: House of Eorl:

Quote:
He captured a white foal and it grew quickly to a horse strong, and fair, and proud. No man could tame it. When Léod dared to mount it, it bore him away, and at last threw him, and Léod's head struck a rock, and so he died. He was then only two and forty years old, and his son a youth of sixteen.
I think everyone should note that this game is about characters who were *slain* - not those that simply died. They had to be killed by someone. Each new person states a character that was killed by another, and the answer will be the slayer and the location of the slaying, if given.

Gil-galad and Beren used spears, and Beren killed the leader of the dwarves that had sacked Doriath.
