FRODO: Mix grub with radishes, at first, and see him emerge.
LEGOLAS: The French aims, if confusing, reveal him.
LOCKBEARER: The floor of my grandfather’s house, if initially lost, reveals him. (Sing it!)
OLORIN: Toilet edge with a nasal change. A slight flush at the beginning will reveal him.
BOROMIR: Troubled Plantagenet, I recalled, at first, but a king-in-waiting? Hmmm ….
WINGFOOT: He’s defined by two appendages.
SAMWISE: He swam around, although this is against his nature, (that is, swallowing seaweed initially).
HOLDWINE: He can take his drink.
BILL: Invoice him.
PIPPIN: A thing unfairly sold, twice? Second lost; direction gained. See him.

Indeed. The floor was a CLOCK-BEARER ... lose the initial letter and you get ... GIMLI the LOCKBEARER.

Huey, it's LOO! Flush the LOO slightly to get OLO, plus RIN, (RIM after a nasal change, just as you said). [Edit: Green* explained this while I was typing this post).

Urwen, why does my phone keep autocorrecting URWEN to GREEN?

(See ....*) Anyway, Olorin (which my phone just autocorrected to Like) was an answer, but to the other clue. And now ... over to you!
