Siriondil, and I think his name means "faithful to Sirion" or something similar. Well, his hobbies were...nah, I'll leave that to someone else. ;)

symestreem 03-01-2004 08:34 PM

Correct, nocturnal warrior. Actually, I believe the literal translation is 'lover of Sirion'. He enjoyed cooking and orcslaying.

NightKnight 03-02-2004 08:07 AM

Thank you. Those are hobbies everyone should have. ;)

So, name five of Gondor's cities.

Gil-Galad 03-02-2004 04:33 PM

Minas Anor, Dol Amroth, Osgiliath, Tharbad, Minas Ithil, Pelargir, once had Umbar but lost it...Lossanarch

NightKnight 03-03-2004 01:18 AM

Lossarnach is a region, but all the others are correct. Your turn. :)

Gil-Galad 03-03-2004 07:17 PM

you would think ppl would build farms on there?



[FONT=century gothic]Gondor was once a unique(sp?) race name the two people who "mingled" together and there fathers, who caused an uproar in Gondor[/FONT]

Rohirrim and Numenoreans (or Gondorians)........and i love your new avatar Gil

Lindolirian 03-04-2004 06:40 AM

Valacar son of Romendacil II wed Vidumavi daughter of Vidugavia. The product of their union was Eldacar, a royal heir who was not full-blooded Gondorian, a problem which sparked the Kin-Strife.

Gil-Galad 03-04-2004 04:34 PM

The World's tallest hobbit has it!

Lindolirian 03-08-2004 08:01 AM

How old was Rohan when Saruman first came to Isengard?

NightKnight 03-08-2004 10:57 AM

249 years.

Lindolirian 03-09-2004 01:39 PM

21 years older than the US of A... Correct!

NightKnight 03-10-2004 01:37 AM

So...hmmm...What was the middle beacon of Gondor?

Nilpaurion Felagund 03-10-2004 02:06 AM

Erelas.
 
;)

NightKnight 03-10-2004 08:39 AM

Exactly. :)

Nilpaurion Felagund 03-10-2004 08:26 PM

Thank you!
 
OK then...

There were three éored commanders during the ride of the Rohirrim to Minas Tirith. Name the one who fell on battle.

luthien-elvenprincess 03-10-2004 09:26 PM

Grimbold was the Marshall of the Mark who fell in that battle.

Nilpaurion Felagund 03-10-2004 09:37 PM

Capital!
 
:)

luthien-elvenprincess 03-11-2004 03:42 PM

The Lord of the Dark Tower had a weapon against Gondor that was said to be swifter than hunger. What is this weapon?

Arestevana 03-11-2004 04:00 PM

I believe it was the fear and despair inspired by the Nazgul.

luthien-elvenprincess 03-11-2004 04:12 PM

Half correct Arestevana. Very close but not quite;)

symestreem 03-11-2004 04:48 PM

Dread and despair. And also falling heads.

Gil-Galad 03-11-2004 08:14 PM

Better be careful about that post Nilpaurion, the admin might think of it as spamming and you might get a stiff warning(i mean STIFF!) it happened to me before, so i suggest that you delete that post...anyways.... to the question.... is it teh Great eye that pierces the souls of people, like boromir said in the movie, it is ever watching, it never sleeps and it knows all

luthien-elvenprincess 03-12-2004 07:15 AM

Yes, symestreem. Dread and despair are the correct answers.;)
But a few falling heads thrown in also would make a huge impact.;)

symestreem 03-13-2004 05:48 PM

Who was the great-granddaughter of Narmacil II?

The Perky Ent 03-13-2004 06:27 PM

A. is it Minalcar?

NightKnight 03-14-2004 04:11 AM

Firiel.

symestreem 03-14-2004 10:27 AM

NightKnight has it.

NightKnight 03-14-2004 12:29 PM

Who was Elfwine's grandfathers?

The Perky Ent 03-14-2004 01:09 PM

Would it be Eomund and Imrahil?

NightKnight 03-15-2004 01:18 AM

It would very much be them. Your turn. :)

Nilpaurion Felagund 03-16-2004 08:29 PM

Hey, Perks!
 
*poke thrice*

The Perky Ent 03-17-2004 07:34 PM

Good Question...in 1st person!!!
 
I was the beginning to a place that stretched to the tower and the tomb, and died to be rebuild by the short of the nine! Weird, but cool!

symestreem 03-18-2004 03:15 PM

Something with Minas Tirith and Pippin?

The Perky Ent 03-18-2004 04:42 PM

possibly...yes it does have to do with Minas Tirith, that would be the tower and the tomb, and pippin has to do with it, but you haven't said the correct answer!

Nilpaurion Felagund 03-18-2004 10:56 PM

A WAG...
 
The gate to Fen Hollen?

Thorongil 03-19-2004 01:54 AM

I don't even know what Fen Hollen is, but to me it seems like the answer is the front gate of Minas Tirith. If this is the same gate is Nilpaurion posted, I apologize.

Nilpaurion Felagund 03-20-2004 02:06 AM

Re: Fen Hollen
 
Fen Hollen is the Silent Street, where the dead kings of Gondor are enbalmed to be turned into creepy statue-thingies on a marble bed.

The Perky Ent 03-23-2004 08:49 PM

Woops! Forgot
 
I kinda forgot about this thread! Thorongil, you are right, in the fact that it is the gate of minas tirith. It is the entrance to minas tirith and was destoryed, but gimli rebuilt it! The thread is yours!

Thorongil 03-24-2004 12:14 AM

How many men left the Armies of the West on their way to the Black Gate to retake Cair Andros?
