Odd man out physical features
 
Try this one, it's probably easy:
Frodo
Ugluk
Legolas
Azog
Turin

Telchar 01-24-2002 03:21 AM

Frodo... at the end of the 3rd age only had 9 fingers?

Keeper of Dol Guldur 01-24-2002 02:38 PM

no, but keep trying. Think race differences....

Nuinrog 01-24-2002 06:24 PM

None of them are of the same race.

Dwarin Thunderhammer 01-24-2002 08:21 PM

They were all short except for legolas?

Dwarin Thunderhammer 01-24-2002 08:23 PM

Wait, it's the other way around. *smacks head* They were all TALL except for frodo. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Gwaihir the Windlord 01-25-2002 12:45 AM

They were all part-elf apart from Frodo?

Telchar 01-25-2002 02:27 AM

All lost their father at an earli age except Legolas and I am in doubt about Ugluk

Keeper of Dol Guldur 01-25-2002 02:59 PM

No, no and no, but that part elf one was pretty good, I didn't think of that. Maybe I should have included another hobbit....

Melly 01-26-2002 07:58 AM

Lego was blond???
[img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Keeper of Dol Guldur 01-28-2002 05:28 PM

Damn, I didn't think of that either. No, but I hope someone gets it sooner or later. It's something you might "hear" about but not think of at first.

Elrian 01-28-2002 07:03 PM

Frodo never wore shoes!

Keeper of Dol Guldur 01-29-2002 04:14 PM

Damn! Yet another, crap. Go back to actual body parts.

Melly 01-30-2002 10:56 AM

sorry about my previous reply..just remembered its never mentioned what colour lego's hair was...damn orlando bloom,making me think of blond hair...grr...

Bruce MacCulloch 01-30-2002 01:40 PM

Um, Frodo had curly hair?

Keeper of Dol Guldur 01-30-2002 06:18 PM

Wow, another one I didn't guess. I really should have put another hobbit in instead of Ugluk.

Lothiriel Silmarien 08-22-2002 04:12 PM

I had to reply only because I know the answer! Legolas was the only one with pointy ears.

Orome 08-22-2002 08:41 PM

frodo had hairy feet

Joy 09-20-2002 08:44 PM

Well, Ugluk was a Urūk-Hai, which is a crossbread. The others were full-blood of whatever race they belonged to.

Orome 09-21-2002 07:38 PM

i think the original asker forgot about this so anyone can take it i guess

merlilot 09-23-2002 07:21 PM

think movie characters:

Frodo
Aragorn
Gandalf
Merry
Elrond

easy, it think
And if you wanna know, I thnk the full-blood think was good.

hobbitlass 10-01-2002 08:55 AM

You said think movie characters....
Frodo is the only one that is not played by an actor close to his own age.

hobbitlass 10-01-2002 08:57 AM

actually that's a stupid answer, now that I think about it... isn't Elrond a couple of thousands of years old?!
Okay, Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen) is the only one not wearing a wig.

merlilot 10-01-2002 07:30 PM

Actually, I forgot where I was going with that one [img]smilies/redface.gif[/img] ...the wig thing sounds good...take it hobbitlass!

hobbitlass 10-02-2002 05:37 AM

okay.....

Shelob
Faramer
Beren
Sauron
Frodo

Legolas 10-02-2002 08:02 AM

Mm...a few that could apply I guess.

Sauron was the only one who could change his alter his physical features upon command?

Telchar 10-02-2002 08:06 AM

Faramir never had hands or fingers or claws bit or cut off - the others did.

Sauron: finger cut off by Isildur
Frodo: finger bit of by Gollum
Beren: Hand bit off by Carcharot
Shelob: claw cut off by Sam

Legolas 10-02-2002 08:14 AM

Blast!

I pondered that, but for some reason, Beren's incident did not occur to me, so I ruled it out.

hobbitlass 10-02-2002 09:28 AM

yep Telchar, that's what I was thinking of.
Your go...

Telchar 10-03-2002 12:33 AM

OK


Aldarion
Tour
Earendil
Elros
Tar-Minastir

Salix 10-04-2002 06:32 PM

Here's my guess: They all sailed or explored except Elros?

Telchar 10-04-2002 07:17 PM

good idea - but no [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] - remember the thread name...

Susan Delgado 10-06-2002 03:07 AM

Earendil was the only one who could (and did) change his shape?

Telchar 10-06-2002 03:30 AM

he could?? he did? please tell me! Where is that written? Earendil the Mariner????

Still of course that not it Susan as I didnt know it!

Susan Delgado 10-06-2002 03:35 AM

Well, after went to Aman to plead for help against Morgoth, he changed into a bird so he could get back to Beleriand. After that, he set sail into the sky, becoming a Star, so he could keep Beren and Luthien's Silmaril out of Morgoth's clutches.

edit: All right, I was wrong about him turning into a bird,that was Elwing. But he did become a Star in order to protect the Silmaril.

How about, Earendil was the only one given a choice of Doom?

[ October 06, 2002: Message edited by: Susan Delgado ]

Glorfinniel the Lost 10-06-2002 04:03 AM

Was it Eärendil since he had a Silmaril bound upon his brow and the others did not?

Btw Susan, could you tell me which book that information is from? That's an interesting piece of info I didn't know [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Susan Delgado 10-06-2002 04:07 AM

It's from the Silmarillion, chapter 24, "Of the Voyage of Earendil and the War of Wrath"

Telchar 10-07-2002 01:36 AM

no and no - And Earendil didnt 'become a star - He sails the heavens in his ship Vingilot still wearing the Silmaril on his brow and as a lil help the Silmaril has nothing to do with the answer... Here is a little hint: All og them, but one, has something special about him.

Susan Delgado 10-08-2002 09:21 AM

From ME perspective, he did.

Tuor had no Elven blood

Telchar 10-08-2002 09:31 AM

Fair enough Susan - difference in interpretation should be allowed [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] and your answer was perfectly correct - no elvish blood in Tuor. Please go on [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
