I agree with Ang.

The descendants of the greatest race of men have their (disputed) High King sucking up to them and giving them free bling and other expensive stuff.

Their metorology and shipmanship surpassed that of the elves, and their wisdom supassed that of the Dunedain. (Boat + Bergs = Under the Sea)

Even though they were afraid of the WK melting snow, the WK never actually comes in contact with them. Perhaps he is afraid when he melts the snow it will become water?

In some accounts, Morgoth was the first of the Valar to discover Ice. In one story, the tower of Helcar (which held Illuin) was made of ice, and it melted because of the heat of the Lamps. However, Ice held no swar over the SNowmen, they "mastered" snow and ice.

If the least of dragons could tear apart a dwarf, the Lossoth were brave enough to stay within a days of any dragons flight.

Quote:
'...house in the snow, and it is said that they can run on the ice with bones on their feet, and have carts without wheels.'
How awsome is that. They economize by using snow and ice, a truly indiginous, hardy people.

I mean come on, they need to have a music video or something.

What's cool about boasting to a girl about how she's no match for you only for her to immediately cut you down to size? Nothing, that's what. He's an egomaniacal jerk, nothing more.

While Elu makes a very convincing case for the Snowmen, I must say that no one character seems much cooler than Bilbo Baggins himself. All he does is sit about writing and smoking all day. That beatnik spirit is alive and well in this one! No doubt, that is cool.

The 1,000 Reader is still gossiping in the Green Dragon.
Actually, if it weren't for a near-undetectable hobbit and a super-powered blade, the Witch-King would have turned Eyown's skull into fragments and her brain would be mush.
