Names

Thanks. Continuing with names and their alternatives: who was Adanadhel and what does the name mean? Even better, who gave the name?

Re: YUp

I like the pic, Sharku. It fits in very well with your title, the Hungry Ghoul.

Let's see... Name four Maiar who are nigh as powerful as the Valar themselves.

Maiar

Well...Eonwe always stood out as important, being in my mind as strong as the lesser Valar; the herald of Manwe and the leader of the Host of the Valar. Saruman was the most powerful Istari, even if he did become evil; Osse seems fairly powerful, ravaging the coasts, and Ulmo apparently has no control over him. And then who could forget Sauron himself, the Second Dark Lord. Who almost became more powerful than Morgoth in his glory; and he was said to be the greatest of the Valar before his evilness. Others apart from those four could include Gothmog and Ariel, both powerful fire Spirits; Gandalf and Melian.

Re: Maiar

I wouldn't say that Saruman was nearly a Vala. Nor was he the most powerful Istar. Gandalf was. But Eonwe and Osse are of course correct, and I'll accept Melian. And who could forget Sauron. Yes, ask away.

Ok

Thanks. Re: Istar: Their skills lay in different areas. Saruman's was in craft and voice; While Gandalf was more thought and leadership, I suppose. Anyway. <img src=rolleyes.gif ALT=":rolleyes"> On the topic of Valar: Name the spouses of the 'brothers' Namo and Irmo.

Thanks. Partly because I can't be bothered figuring out a question, and because I would like to stick with the year theme because I'm a boring and very un-creative person. <img src=wink.gif ALT=";)"> When was 'pipe weed' first planted?

Re: Yep!

Almost quoting Faramir when quoting Gandalf:
&quot;Mithrandir among the Elves, Tharkûn to the Dwarves; Olórin I was in my youth in the West that is forgotten, in the South Incánus, in the North Gandalf; to the East I go not.&quot;
Mithrandir -&gt; grey Pilgrim.
Incánus -&gt; spy from the North.
Gandalf -&gt; elf with a staff.
I don't know what does Tharkûn mean, but, since the dwarves didn't teach his language to anybody...
