*Horrified gasp [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]*

Anyway, is it Aldor?

Finwe · 01-23-2004, 06:46 PM

Yes indeed. Your go.

NightKnight · 01-24-2004, 05:34 AM

Thank you.

Who led the army that was sent out after the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, to destroy the army that tried to block rohirrims way?

Elrond of Rivendell · 01-24-2004, 06:37 AM

Elfhelm led the main strength of the Rohirrim against the enemy that was in Anorien?

EfR

NightKnight · 01-24-2004, 02:47 PM

Yeah, he did. Next question, please.

Gil-Galad · 02-04-2004, 05:16 PM

An easy one... Who worked on Meduseld (started and completed)

Arvedui III · 02-06-2004, 05:46 PM

That would be Brego, son of Eorl.

Gil-Galad · 02-07-2004, 09:57 AM

I'll except that, i was looking for Eorl started it and Brego completed it, your go!

Arvedui III · 02-13-2004, 10:18 PM

Ok then. Herm...here's an easy one: Which Rohirrim has a tie to the house of Hurin?

NightKnight · 02-14-2004, 05:46 AM

Helm's son Haleth?

Arvedui III · 02-14-2004, 06:35 PM

Good guess, but no.

02-14-2004, 07:55 PM

Hmmm...Fram, because he slew a dragon?

Arvedui III · 02-14-2004, 07:59 PM

Sorry, no. Hint: I'm asking about the House of Hurin, not Hurin Thalion's line.

02-14-2004, 08:10 PM

Thengel, then, because of his wife Morwen of Lossarnach, one of the second House of Hurin, that of the Stewards.

Arvedui III · 02-14-2004, 08:16 PM

I was thinking of Eowyn, but Thengel works nicely too. Well done, and welcome to the Downs.

02-15-2004, 10:37 AM

Thanks for the welcome! I do have a tendency to overthink things...

Who was the mother of Galador?

Finwe · 02-15-2004, 10:56 AM

Mithrellas

02-16-2004, 08:42 AM

Correct, of course. Your go.

Finwe · 02-16-2004, 08:55 AM

All right...

I killed a mighty foe, but killed over that foe's teeth.

Lindolirian · 02-16-2004, 10:23 AM

Fram who killed scath the Worm, but was killed by the Dwarves because of his insult in sending them Scatha's teeth when they demanded for their share of the treasure.

Finwe · 02-16-2004, 01:17 PM

Yup.

These guys never learn, do they? First Thingol and now Fram. *sighs*

Lindolirian · 02-17-2004, 03:41 PM

What office did Elfwine's grandfather hold in the Riddermark?

Arvedui III · 02-17-2004, 05:52 PM

Herm, Elfwine's grandfather would be Eomund, who was a marshal of the Mark.

Lindolirian · 02-17-2004, 06:00 PM

Aye, that be it.

Arvedui III · 02-19-2004, 09:04 PM

Thankya. Herm... Name three times that the Rohirrim came to the aid of Gondor.

Lindolirian · 02-20-2004, 02:50 PM

When Marwhini assisted Calimehtar in ousting the Wainriders
The Ride of Eorl
The Battle of Pelennor Fields

luthien-elvenprincess · 02-20-2004, 05:35 PM

In 2510 at the Field of Celebrant

When the Haradrim assailed Gondor in about 2885

On the Fields of Pelennor in 3019

Arvedui III · 02-20-2004, 05:38 PM

Very good examples, all. However, Lindolirian got there first. Your go.

Lindolirian · 02-23-2004, 06:51 PM

How was Tarostar slain, and who aveneged his death?

luthien-elvenprincess · 02-23-2004, 07:37 PM

Tarostar (Romendacil I) was the eighth King of Gondor, son of Ostoher. He died in battle with Easterlings.

NightKnight · 02-24-2004, 04:35 AM

Luthien, you forgot something. He was avenged by his son Turambar.

Lindolirian · 02-24-2004, 03:41 PM

Well you are both partially correct, but I will give it too luthien since she had it first.

luthien-elvenprincess · 02-24-2004, 05:54 PM

Ahhhh, so I did! Thank you. Now, my turn.

Who overthrew the Captain of the Haven?

Gil-Galad · 02-24-2004, 06:58 PM

Thorongil, or aragorn as they say, but he more arnorin

luthien-elvenprincess · 02-24-2004, 09:29 PM

Yeppers, Gil-Galad. That was fast...did I make it too easy or are you incredibly smart?

Your turn.

Gil-Galad · 02-25-2004, 04:36 PM

well... pobody's nerfect

Name the stewards who took names from Elves of Old

symestreem · 02-25-2004, 06:50 PM

Voronwe, Dior, Denethor, Ecthelion, Turgon, Ecthelion (again... but no numeral, hmm) Denethor again. Incidentally, there was a Steward, Thorondir, who appears to have taken his name after the King of the Eagles.

Gil-Galad · 02-25-2004, 10:34 PM

the lord of the eagles was Thorondor, with an o, but none hte less your go symestream

Arvedui III · 02-28-2004, 02:18 PM

*Bump*

Symestreem?

symestreem · 02-29-2004, 12:46 PM

Who was Earnur's paternal grandfather? Give a five-minute presentation on his hobbies.

For brownie points, translate the grandfather's name.
