And speaking of the gal herself,

1. Fell Beast
2. Sam (Mount Doom)
3. Lorien boats

5. Tol Eressea
6. The Gwaihir Express!
7. Treebeard
8. Being dead (works for Gandalf and Luthien both!)
9. Wearing the appearance of a vampire bat (Luthien-Thuringwethil)

Would Shelob count? She MAY have touched it while wrapping Frodo. And if we're counting Boromir, then Celebrimbor steals it for a while in the Shadow of Mordor game.

Hrm. Maybe I just miscounted, but I'm sure I had 10...
