Arwen Imladris 05-05-2003 07:41 PM

Looks like we need a new topic. How about kings? I haven't been around lately, so I apologise in advance if this has been done recently.

Arvedui Last-king: Son of Araphant, the fifteenth and last King of Arthedain. When the forces of Angmar overran the last remnant of the North-kingdom, Arvedui fled into the far north, but perished in the Bay of Forochel. His eldest son, Aranarth, became the first Chieftain of the Dúnedain.

The Saucepan Man 05-06-2003 06:47 AM

C is for Calimehtar, thirtieth King of Gondor and defeater of those enemies of Gondor, the Wainriders.

Arwen Imladris 05-06-2003 02:19 PM

Déor, Seventh of the Kings of Rohan: A direct descendant of Eorl the Young, who inherited the Kingship of Rohan from his father Goldwine. Déor's great-great-grandfather, Aldor the Old, had hunted out the Dunlendings that had harried the eastern borders of Rohan, and his successors Fréa, Fréawine and Goldwine had enjoyed peaceful reigns because of their ancestor's enterprises. In Déor's time, this peace came to an end.

It was later discovered that the Dunlendings had secretly been moving back into the northwestern uplands of Rohan throughout the reigns of Déor's predecessors. By Déor's own time, a powerful Dunlendish force had been established, and the King was forced to ride northward from Edoras, ultimately to defeat his enemies. The victory was a bitter one, though, for he discovered that the Dunlendings had also captured the Ring of Isengard, which Déor had no possible means of recapturing. So Déor's reign saw the beginning of a danger from the north that would reach a crisis nearly fifty years later, when the Dunlendings were to come close to destroying Rohan alogether.

Déor's turbulent reign lasted nineteen years. He was succeeded as King by his son, Gram.

E for Earendil

Eruanna 05-07-2003 01:34 PM

F for Fingolfin, High King of the Noldor. Father of Turgon, Fingon and Aredhel. He was slain by Morgoth in single combat.

Arwen Imladris 05-07-2003 03:46 PM

Gram, The eighth King of Rohan:

The son of Déor and father of Helm Hammerhand, who ruled Rohan as the eighth Lord of the Mark. His reign was a time of warfare with the Dunlendings, who had occupied Isengard during his father's time, and continued to raid and harrass the Rohirrim.

I for Isildur himself- the man with the most memorable line in the entire film!

Arwen Imladris 05-08-2003 02:27 PM

King under the Mountain (Title of the Dwarf-lords of Erebor): The title taken by Thráin I, founder of the Dwarf-kingdom at Erebor, the Lonely Mountain, and maintained by those Kings of Durin's Folk who dwelt there. The line was broken twice, once by Thorin I (he and four generations of his descendants ruled from the Grey Mountains, not Erebor), and once by the dragon Smaug (who claimed the title for himself). In both cases, the line was restored to a rightful heir.
