Yay, I'm glad someone besides me wants to remember Fili & Kili, who died defending Thorin with shield and body, for he was their mother's brother.

And what about Thorin himself? If he hadn't been so determined to avenge Erebor, the end of the books would have been quite different! "Night in Rivendell...no Queen in Gondor", according to Gandalf.

Then there's always Theoden's loyal captain, Hama! Poor soul, he died at Helm's deep, and what does he get for it? One line in TTT.

Also in TTT, Mablung and his friend whose name I forget, who are archers in Faramir's (the REAL Faramir, mind you) band in Ithilien.

Last but not least, The Real Faramir!!!
