Alcarondas- the Castle of the Sea, perhaps? Generally ships are female.

Nope.
 

Out on a flimsy translation limb...
 

Ciryaher? As far as I can tell, "cirya" might be related to "cair" -> ship and "her" is almost certainly "heru"-> lord.

?

Sophe

WAGgin' it.
 

Círdan?

Sorry I took so long... plum out forgot what my answer was! I had to go back and look it up to remember. Haha... should be a rule against that...

Sophia's got it with Ciryaher.

w00t.
 

Eriol?

*nods*
 

that's the one.

Thanks!
 

A toughie here (I think):

Máhan.

Ummm . . .
 

Anyone?

Even if you just ask for hints, please? :(

i know it, i just forgot...it sounds so familiar too!!!

I know a Mahal, a Mahtan, and a Mahanaxar...?

But no Mahan.

Sorry, Nilp, you got me. :p

Sophia

A hint, then.
 

Who sits on Máhanaxar?

Well, it's the Ring of Doom (original version)...
 

So the Valar. Or more specifically, I would guess Manwe?

:confused:

Well, not just any Valar.
 

And not just Manwë. ;)

Ardalambion knows all, and after much searching, tells all...
 

So, the Aratar. :D

Tough indeed, Nilp.

Blame Ardalambion!
 

But you still got it.

Take the thread. You certainly earned it. ;)

Paging again...
 

Sopia, dear, don't make me start a countdown...

Goodness, I forgot!
 

Many apologies.

Alright, this is will be rather a back handed question as I can't think of anything obscure that hasn't been done. Follow my wanderings until you find the person referenced, then provide me with an alternate name for them.

His father was not Lorindol, nor his son Eluchil, yet his name he shared with the father of one greater than himself. And though the greater, he is in one way less.

Nothing cryptic in this. Just clues. Find an alternate name for the one referred to as Greater in the riddle and the thread will be yours. ;)

Sophia?
 

Am I to assume that the person you want is from the First Age?

Way more than 10 days.
 

(Many thanks to the Inktomi Slurp Spider for reminding me of this thread.)

Enedwaith, let's start with a simple one:

Bronweg.

Reads like of "brown egg." :D

Voronwe.


Sea-wing

Eärrámë.

Taking over . . .
 

Súthburg.

The Hornburg.

Looks good.
 

Your thread. :)

Thanks
 

Noldor.

Yep!
 

Your turn.

Thanks!
 

Wildman of the Woods.

Túrin.

Turambar

Alcarillo got first.
 

Sorry, arcticstorm.

Thanks
 

Wolf-folk .

Gaurwaith.

Not quite. The Gaurwaith are called Wolf-men. Hint: bad guys

D'oh!
 

I forgot my Sindarin, sorry. :o

Gaurhoth.

Um, think of bipedal bad guys. First age. They're only called Wolf-folk once.

It was the Easterlings (Brodda and his crew)

Yep
 

Joy got it.
