Gamling maybe, or possibly Grima (because of the secrets bit), but he didn't fight in the Battle of the Hornburg.

i put two tehre so you can choose which either put plz tell me and all you are so close


Hint: in the two poems/proses, they are in the same age! and they fought together!

need another hint?

The first one could be Theoden or Eomer, or maybe Hama.
The second one is surely Eowyn, isn´t it? But Faramir also comes to my mind...

nope, your close on yoru first guess but second one your kinda off

Hint: there both male
Hint: Erect!!!

Theoden and Grima?

some body already sadi Theoden and Grima and i said close but no cigar!

Aragorn for the 2nd?????? [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Who else was even important in the battle of Helm's Deep (or of Pellanor Fields) that is close to those three?? Those are pretty much the only important Rohirrim I would think. You've really stumped us!

Erkenbrand. Don't know about a second one though, maybe Theodred?

sorry Tar, Earwen got it first so she can go

but you were right Tar with first Erkenbrand, but Earwen did anwser first

ok
maiden i am
name means of the sea
had many children but one was female
who is mentioned a lot in frodo's tale
who am I?

Hmmm possibly Earwen?

of course i had to do it. your up

alrighty here goes...

I have a thirst that will remain unquenched
and although years pass I am still reminded
Only nine remain
yet I am alone

The Witch-King of Angmar?

nope it's not him

sauron, or the one ring

Nope, not those either.

Shelob perhaps? Thirsty and lives near the city of the Nine...

that's a nice reasoning...but for a hint:

the nine does not refer to what you suspect, and thirst is a metaphor [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

i am gonna take a super wild guess Melkor?

No it isn't Melkor either.

::HINT: This characters appearance is made in the Lord of the Rings as part of the present, not past.::

Frodo?

Yes! Frodo it was [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I have a thirst that will remain unquenched
He will always long for the ring
and although years pass I am still reminded
His wound flares up on it's "birthday"
Only nine remain
Nine fingers
yet I am alone
Sam had Rosie, Merry & Pippin, Aragorn & Arwen, Legolas & Gimli...

All right! I win! Sorry, lol, it's my first time. Well, I'll get right on my question.

I hope for hope.
I die to live.
Am I young or am I old?
It matters not, for I have found
treasure beyond bound

Well, there you go. Sorry if it's vague. But, as my luck would have it, someone will get it right off.

quendi?

No.

I have no idea who that even is, and after
looking it over I realize my question is incredibly vague. So, as a hint, the character is from Lord of the Rings. Well, the person could be mentioned in the other tales as well (I'm no expert on them), but the person IS in LOTR.

Oh, and all of those lines should not be taken literally. They may be symbolic or hinting at the truth, of course - poetic license.

My goodness! I just looked over it again. And it is impossible to figure out unless you happen to stumble upon my exact thought process. OK, the character is NOT a minor character in LOTR. That should help narrow the field.

frodo, Bilbo, or Aragorn???

Arwen?

I hope for hope. Hope= Aragorn, aka Estel (elvish for Hope)
I die to live. gave up immortal life, to live a life worth living at Aragorn´s side
Am I young or am I old? you can´t tell because she´s elven
It matters not, for I have found
treasure beyond bound the treasure is love

Or maybe Gandalf???

Oh sure. My first riddle lasted a day. Maybe I shouldn't have given so many hints. Maybe it wasn't as vague as I thought. In any case, Manardariel has it. It was Arwen. And that was a wonderful explanation, too - nearly exactly how I thought of it. Good job.

Well, I liked that riddle... especially the 'I hope for hope'-part [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

lathspell

Yeah, I didn't think it was too vague [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I rather liked it...

Well, thanks. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Galadriel

or Earendil
