4. SMEAGOL, if he loses the O, is an anagram of GLEAMS.
I was playing around with flaws/faults and glimmers/gleams/etc/etc way before you posted any hints. I can't find synonyms that work.

Here are my hints for 4 and 6 again.
4. 6. What's the other word for 'of fungus'? There is a reason my hint for 4 is this particular emoji. Think about what the reason could be.

Of fungus
Mouldy ... but I could not achieve anything with that.
I believe moldy is the North American spelling, but no luck there either.

No to the ring, and as for 'of fungus', it's FUNGAL.......
I thought you would realize that, surely.....

No, because Tolkien himself used the adjective FUNGOID. So I didn't think of fungal.
ULFANG, then.

I did guess traitors upthread, though.

And now, over to you. And somehow, my themes keep drifting in that direction lately. He sunk his claws into my heart and he doesn't let go.

I have 3 puzzles ready at home. I'll post one tonight, when I get in.
Thanks for teaching me a new word. And well done for producing another themed password.

Here we go again, then:
1. A little town, a dwarf, a lost path and one Master of Ceremonies combine – however tumultuously – for him. 2. She’s like a country in turmoil. 3. He confuses the French king. 4. A wilder roar than that will bring him. 5. Vegetable changes vowels and is blended for him. 6. It takes three paths, a sheep, and great unrest to find her. 7. See a Dark Elf gallivant around for him! 8. See him suffer lashes, initially, then chaos. 9. Policemen’s chorus loses order and sailor for him. 10. How the toga’d ones were toga’d, he shows, if chaotically. 11. For this, Petrarch’s muse, (here unsung), meets one who brought us a shieldmaiden, (we hear). 12. With seven pushbacks, it sounds like a seventies serial might cede a fragrant one for a bun fight.

For the French king clue, is it some specific King, or just a French translation for the king?
For the Dark Elf clue, is it Eol/Maeglin, or am I off the mark entirely?

No, you need to take an actual vegetable, not a root, and change both its vowels.
You're on the right track for Dark Elf. Why not try the French for king?

No. Only 'around' is the anagram indicator. You need a synonym for 'gallivant.'

You need a different synonym for 'gallivant,' though. It jmplies more than wandering ... also being carefree and maybe irresponsible.
