#7: Who was Dior's spouse, and where was she from?


I may be away for a little, but I'll try and check this as soon as possible. My apologies.

Nimloth of Doriath

Soooo sorry for the delay ... I was away ... will start thinking of questions furiously. ;)

Lindolirian is correct, making the scoreboard stand at:

Firefoot - 3
Lindolirian - 4

#8: Name four red-headed Elves.

Yay! You're back!

Maedhros, Amrod, Amras, and Nerdanel?

Thanks! It's good to see ya again. :)

And that's correct.

Lindolirian - 4


#9: Give three alternative names for Galadriel. (Not counting titles like 'Lady of Lorien'.)

Alatariel, Artanis, Nerwen

I rather miss this game, and according to the Members List, Miriel hasn't been around for more than a month, so would it be okay if I started a new set of questions?

Go ahead Firefoot. :)

Yeah Firefoot, you had me on this one anyway. I think you and Miriel must live in a different time zone than I, because I would always find that you two posted while I was asleep :rolleyes:

Alrighty, then. The topic is Animals of Arda.

1. Name two horses that killed someone.

Crazy Horses (Wah Wah)
 

Felarof (Leod) and Snowmane (Theoden).

Yes

Saucepan Man - 1

What was the name of the crow that helped Bilbo and the Dwarves?

Roac

No

Ah trick question! There was no crow, because Roäc son of Carc was a raven.

Yep.

Lindolirian - 1
SpM - 1

What were the colors of Queen Beruthiel's cats?

7. How large was Thorondor?

His wings were 30 fathoms and a fathom is six feet, so with a wing span of 180 feet, he was quite huge.

Uh-huh.

Lindo - 4
SpM - 2
NK - 1

8. Name a horse that is not gray or white.

I had always imagined Arod to be light brown, but I can't find any evidence backing it up. :rolleyes:

No, Arod is gray.

Firefoot?

No, Firefoot is gray too.

Maybe I shouldn't have said 'name'... just which horse.

Ah well, in that case I shall say the Witch King of Angmar's horse, which is black (along with the eight ridden by the other Nazgul).

But that's probably not the answer that you had in mind ... :( ;)

Actually, 'tis.

10. According to the Hobbit, what kinds of animals do we know lived in Mirkwood?

Spiders, squirrels, deer, a hart, "black emperor" butterflies, moths as big as your hand, and other various insects that only showed their bulbous eyes.

Perfect.

And with 5 points, Lindolirian is the winner! Your turn.

*Drumroll*
And the new topic is...
Gems, jewels, precious stones, rings and other sorts of treasure.

1. Name two of the above things (by name) that Cirdan gave away.

Narya (to Gandalf) and the last Palantir of Arnor (to Elrond/Gandalf/the ship :p).

Yeah, that'll work.
NK-1
