Ah, Russandol, you were so close, but Pallando has it.

Pallando B.C 01-23-2003 07:54 PM

Unlucky Russandol. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Eärendil
Dior
Eldarion
Lúthien

Ultimatejoe 01-24-2003 03:11 AM

They were all of mixed lineage.

Dior=Man and Elf
Luthien=Elf and Maia
Eldarion=Man and hElf
Earendil=Man and Elf

Pallando B.C 01-24-2003 05:01 PM

Correct, Ultimatejoe. Your Turn.

Ultimatejoe 01-25-2003 09:09 AM

Al-Pharazon
Earnur
Helm
Ondoher

Lindolirian 01-25-2003 11:42 AM

They were all the last king or ruler of their line.

Ultimatejoe 01-25-2003 09:30 PM

Yep

Lindolirian 01-27-2003 08:14 PM

Khamul
Galadriel
Gorthaur
Thrain

Ultimatejoe 01-28-2003 07:54 AM

Which Thrain?

Russandol 01-28-2003 12:31 PM

They have all been to Dol Goldur at one time or another.

Ultimatejoe 01-28-2003 02:59 PM

It depends on which Thrain though. Only one went to Dol Goldur.

Lindolirian 01-28-2003 04:27 PM

Russandol is right. Sorry, I didn't specify which Thrain.

Russandol 01-30-2003 10:53 AM

Try these out:

King Eärnur
Théoden King
Morwen Eledhwen
Boromir of the Fellowship

Lyra Greenleaf 01-31-2003 01:34 PM

were there exact ends all unknown?

Edit: Oh , i just realised we know what happened to Theoden. Sorry

Lyra Greenleaf 02-01-2003 03:13 AM

did they all have their minds overthrown by something?
(eg grief/the ring/Grima?)

Russandol 02-01-2003 04:07 PM

Sorry, not those!

Lindolirian 02-11-2003 07:11 PM

A hint perhaps, Russandol?

Tar-Palantir 02-12-2003 01:21 AM

I don't know. Just wasted an hour dwelling on it though... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Manardariel 02-12-2003 01:46 PM

They were all the last of their line?

Ultimatejoe 02-12-2003 02:29 PM

Techinically Faramir would have been the last of the Line of Stewards, and he survived!

Tar-Palantir 02-12-2003 05:32 PM

I just saw the dates, the last question is 2 weeks old! Even though I'd still like to know the answer to it, we should move on. Does someone want to post a new one up? If not I'll do one later. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir 02-13-2003 11:05 AM

Here is a fresh one:

Sam
Frodo
Aragorn

good luck.

Lindolirian 02-13-2003 04:43 PM

Aragorn is the only one who did not go to the Grey Havens. He did not possess the Ring at any time either.

Ultimatejoe 02-13-2003 05:32 PM

This is the one thing in common thread. You're looking for "odd man out"

They all encountered the "eye" of Sauron?

Lindolirian 02-13-2003 06:53 PM

Whoops. Duh. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir 02-13-2003 07:36 PM

Nope. I'll give a little hint.

It happened to them in this order:

Aragorn
Sam
Frodo

[img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir 02-16-2003 07:35 PM

A bump and a hint:

Something happened to each of the three, for Aragorn and Sam is quickly passed, but for Frodo it lasted the rest of his days.

What do they have in common?

Aragorn
Sam
Frodo

elven maiden Earwen 02-16-2003 07:40 PM

dang cant think of it but it has to do with Aragorn-plantir
Sam-ring
Frodo-ring
exprincing pain or grief or something like that

[ February 16, 2003: Message edited by: elven maiden Earwen ]

Rochelle 02-16-2003 08:00 PM

Was it their experience with the wraiths on Amon Sûl?

Tar-Palantir 02-16-2003 09:02 PM

No. One more (big!) hint:

it was an injury they all suffered, but not from a weapon.

elven maiden Earwen 02-16-2003 09:21 PM

stress, grief, weary older by the burrden of the ring or looking into the plantir

The Saucepan Man 02-18-2003 02:21 PM

They were all bitten by Smeagol/Gollum?

Tar-Palantir 02-18-2003 05:22 PM

Ding, ding, ding! we have a winner. Good job The Saucepan Man - your turn.

[ February 18, 2003: Message edited by: Tar-Palantir ]

The Saucepan Man 02-18-2003 08:11 PM

Thank you, Tar-Palantir. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

More difficult than you think trying to come up with one, isn't it? Oh well, let's try this one:

Gandalf the White
Hamfast Gamgee
Eowyn

Pallando B.C 02-18-2003 08:58 PM

Did they all account a Nazgûl?

The Saucepan Man 02-18-2003 09:02 PM

Pallando BC, what do you mean by "account"?

Pallando B.C 02-18-2003 09:08 PM

Speaking.

The Saucepan Man 02-18-2003 09:11 PM

Yup, that's it. They all conversed with a Nazgul. looks like its your turn ...

Pallando B.C 02-18-2003 10:03 PM

Righty-O

• Eönwë
• Gandalf
• Gilthoniel
• Melkor

Lindolirian 02-19-2003 03:09 PM

They are all related to Manwë. Gilthoniel is Varda, his wife. Éonwë was also known as Fionwë, son of Manwë. Melkor is his brother. And Gandalf, or Ólorin is a Maia in his service.
