When and Where you were born
 
I was born on the Moria on the Bridge of Khazad Dum day.....just a thought, I was born on the day Gandalf died...

I was born Jan. 15th, FYI

So when, where, were you born?

*Varda* 08-21-2002 01:34 PM

Uh, well I was born November 4th, 1986, in Glasgow, Scotland. Call me stupid, but why is this thread in the Movies forum?

Aylwen Dreamsong 08-21-2002 01:37 PM

Thats a very good question......hmmm.....

The Barrow-Wight 08-21-2002 01:57 PM

I think Tariel is asking if your birthday corresponds to any events in Middle-earth?

Don't respond if it doesn't.

Lothiriel Silmarien 08-21-2002 02:52 PM

For my birthday, it says:

Gandalf crosses the Greyflood. Second night with Bombadil.

It's not that important as say...Boromir's death, but it's still in the book!

Galadrie1 08-21-2002 03:08 PM

A day after my birthday, Frodo woke up in Rivendell after being wounded at Weathertop.

Jeli Baggins 08-21-2002 03:14 PM

Lindolirian 08-21-2002 03:17 PM

My birthday is April 6, the day that Thranduil and Celborn met in Mirkwood after the War of the Ring and renamed it Greenwood the Great.

Salix 08-21-2002 06:47 PM

Yay!

Take that! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] (Sorry, but I'm a bit hyper.)

suicidal elf chick 08-22-2002 02:08 AM

What happened on May 6th? That's my birthday. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Please? I don't remember how to find out.

Evisse the Blue 08-22-2002 02:26 AM

Hey, Tariel, I was also born on Jan 15 (1982)
But, stupid me, I didn't know it was such an important date [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Manwe Sulimo 08-22-2002 09:29 AM

Evisse: January 15: The Bridge of Khazad-dūm, and the fall of Gandalf. The Company reaches Nimrodel late at night.

Mine is September 6th...."[The hobbits and Gandalf] halt in sight of the Mountains of Moria."

Only 16 days from Bilbo and Frodo's birthday!

gollum*elf*pup 08-22-2002 02:00 PM

My birthday was the day the ring was destroyed. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Rose Cotton 08-22-2002 03:40 PM

On my birthday, June 20th:

"Souron attacks Osgiliath. About the same time Thranduil is attacked, and Gollum escapes."

That's pritty cool!

Melephelwen 08-23-2002 07:37 AM

On my birthday, 27th March

Bard II and Thorin III drive the enemy from Dale.
Cool... [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]
Just a question: can you find this sort of information any other places than the book? 'Cause that would be a lot easier... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Lady_Galadriel 08-23-2002 05:56 PM

On my birthday nothing in middle earth happened. (2/10) but for the sake of the topic, i just thought i'd share with you all what it says for the year 2002...

Fall of Minas ithil, afterwards known as Minas Morgul. The palantķr is captured

MYyyPreciousSS 08-24-2002 02:17 AM

My birthday: September 30 -
Black Riders attack Crickhollow and the Prancing Pony in the early morning. The
hobbits and Strider leave Bree in the late morning and enter the Chetwood. Gandalf comes to Crickhollow and reaches Bree at night.
Well at least its something..
Off by 8 days from Frodo & Bilbo's birthday.

The Fifth 08-24-2002 09:31 AM

Nothing happened on my birthday, but something happened just before my birthday - October 11th.

"He [Glorfindel] drives the [Black?] Riders off the Bridge of Mitheithel."

Gandalf_theGrey 08-24-2002 10:17 AM

June 25th, 3019 (S.R. 1419)

King Elessar finds the sapling of the White Tree.

Catherine 08-24-2002 11:43 AM

my birthday is april 14, but i dont think anything happeed then?

Brinniel 08-24-2002 02:52 PM

Did anything happen June 28? I doubt it, but I'm just curious.

Ithaeliel 08-25-2002 02:30 PM

A day before my birthday, Gandalf cast down the Balrog and passed away.

Brinn- 3 days before your b-day, Aragorn found the sapling of the White Tree on Mindolluin.

Nevfeniel 08-25-2002 03:42 PM

Okay, nothing happened on my birthday (July 11), but on July 10, Gandalf was imprisoned at Orthanc. Does that count?

Raefindel 08-25-2002 07:18 PM

On my Anniversary Frodo crosses the Ford of Bruinen.

On My Birthday the Fellowship is 5 days out from Rivendell.

For those who are wondering where we are finding this info, check out ROTK appendix B.

Bźthberry 08-26-2002 10:36 AM

The day after my birthday (May 19), Elrond and Arwen come to Lorien (May 20 , 3019, S.R. 1419) on the first leg of Arwen's pre-nuptial journey to Minas Tirith to marry King Elessar. Not a bad reference for a Bombadil, I'd say. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Aryan 01-31-2003 02:38 PM

August 23rd, dont think anything happened i'll have to check..or someone could do it for me? my sis (yes the one who nicked my poster) is reading my book and wont let me have it til she's finished [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Airerūthiel 01-31-2003 02:52 PM

I have no clue what happened on/near my birthday (October 2nd) because my copy of LotR is one of those really old ones printed just after the animated movie was made (so it's really really old) and all it's got for appendices is a bit of The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen, which is a pain...

If anyone knows what happened on/near my birthday, please tell me. Thanks in advance.

LadyElbereth 01-31-2003 03:15 PM

My birthday (June 21) is the day after Sauron attacked Osgiliath. And about the same time Thranduil was attacked by orcs and Gollum escaped. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

maikafanawen 01-31-2003 03:18 PM

Nothing *officially* happens on my birthday, February 5th, the Fellowship is just resting in Lorien in the year 3018. Yep that's all I know.

Namarie noldonyar,

Horse-Maiden of the Shire 01-31-2003 04:52 PM

Bah! Nothing happened on my birthday (oct 19) but on the 18th Glorfindel found Frodo in the dusk and on the 20th they crossed the Ford of Bruinen. So on my birthday Glorfindel and Frodo were visiting. How quaint.

My birthday is September 30th, same as MYyyPreciousSS, so on my b-day Fatty Bolger was having the most exciting day of his life. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Airerūthiel, on your birthday Gandalf was travelling between Bree and Weathertop. On the day after your birthday he is attacked at night, and then three days later Frodo and Co. arrive.

Airerūthiel 02-01-2003 02:15 AM

K, thanks Diamond! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
