Re:

Stonehearted indeed. <img src=smile.gif ALT=":)">

Does the answer have to do with jewel robbery? Morgoth, Thingol, Sauron and Barahir had rings or Silmarils taken from them by force. Fëanor lost the Silmarils to Morgoth, of course, but wasn't present at the robbery.

Re:

I'll give you that one - Actually I thought Barahir was odd out because nobody never stole anything from him - he was actually killed before they took his hand (I hope <img src=frown.gif ALT=":("> )
Beren stole a Silmaril from Morgoth, Dwarves stole a silmaril from Thingol, Morgoth Stole a the Silmarils from Fëanor and Isildur Stole the one ring from Sauron... Give us another <img src=smile.gif ALT=":)">

Re:

HINT: According to an old Irish saying, if he hasn't lost it already, a man loses his heart when this happens to him.

4 of these fellows had a certain kind of relative, the odd man did not.

Odd one out

Could it be that all of them fell when they died except for Gothmog?

-Ancalagon must have fallen from the skies.
-Gandalf cast Durin's Bane from the top of the endless stair.
-Glorfindel fell as he killed that Balrog.
-Smaug fell when shot by Bard.

Re: Odd Man Out

Sorry I've taken so long in replying; I had forgotten that I'd posted here.

- Gandalf
- Luthien
- Morgoth
- Sauron
- Elwing
- Galadriel

</p>

The Laurenendorian 10-13-2001 11:08 AM

Nobody?

Elenhin 10-14-2001 04:10 AM

Sauron never saw the light of a Silmaril?

Telchar 10-15-2001 03:38 AM

That's very unlikely Elenhin, As Morgoth wore them in his crown for all of the first age - those two most have been face to face... + there is the evening star...

Luthien - for never having sailed the Sea!

The Laurenendorian 10-16-2001 01:31 PM

When did Morgoth 'sail', then?

A nice try, but no.

A clue:
I could have included Radagast in the set, but not Fëanor.

Turambar 10-16-2001 01:55 PM

Was it Galadriel because she never changed her form?

Telchar 10-17-2001 01:24 AM

I just assumed that Morgoth sailed when he was taken prisoner and brought back to Valinor???

The Laurenendorian 10-21-2001 02:50 PM

Turambar has the answer I was looking for.

I hadn't considered sailing at all, at first. That was why I said that I couldn't have included Fëanor, though.

Turambar's turn.
[img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Turambar 10-23-2001 07:28 AM

Feanor
Finarfin
Hurin
Mim

Turambar 10-30-2001 11:48 AM

No guesses? It's an easy one !

Telchar 10-31-2001 02:28 AM

Im a little at a loss here...

It's said to be a great tragedy when this happens to a parent . . .
