Odd creature out!! - Page 7 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Bombadil · 04-16-2004, 10:29 AM

Quickbeam, the only one not to come in contact with a baggins?

The Perky Ent · 04-16-2004, 10:57 AM

YAY! Bombadil got it! Finally!

I yield the thread to you

Bombadil · 04-16-2004, 11:16 AM

Shadowfax
Gwaihir
Snowmane
Bill the Pony

NightKnight · 04-16-2004, 11:49 AM

Gwaihir is the only one that is not a horse.

The Perky Ent · 04-16-2004, 01:55 PM

Although this might be wrong, Snowmane, the only one a hobbit didn't ride on.

Pippin rode on shadowfax, Frodo "rode" on Gwaiahir, and Sam didn't ride but kept care of. So, in other words, Snowmane, the only one not to be in close proximity of a hobbit

Evisse the Blue · 04-16-2004, 03:26 PM

Bill the Pony - the only one who hasn't participated in combat?

Bombadil · 04-16-2004, 03:39 PM

well those are all true, but not what im looking for, and since it's kind of broad ill give a hint...

think fellowship

NightKnight · 04-16-2004, 03:52 PM

Snowmane - the only one not ridden by a member of the Fellowship.

Sirithheruwen · 04-16-2004, 03:54 PM

Just a guess...

Snowmane, because he was the only one who didn't help out the Fellowship... Shadowfax carried GAndalf, Bill carried the baggage, and Gwaihir carried Frodo and GAndalf.

Bombadil · 04-16-2004, 04:03 PM

Sirithheruwen, you have the concept, but what i was looking for is what NightKnight answered, so nice job Knight you're up!

NightKnight · 04-16-2004, 04:10 PM

I have to come up with creatures now? Scary thought...

Huan
Thorondor
Bill the Pony
Tevildo

Bombadil · 04-16-2004, 04:55 PM

Tevildo, The Only Servant Of The Dark Lord?

NightKnight · 04-16-2004, 04:59 PM

Hehe, you fell for the obvious.

That's not the one I had in mind.

Bombadil · 04-16-2004, 05:05 PM

here's another obvious one, thorondor only one without four legs, not to mention with wings.

NightKnight · 04-16-2004, 05:09 PM

Wrong again.

Mad Baggins · 04-16-2004, 05:29 PM

Bill was the only one to come in contact with any members of the Fellowship?

NightKnight · 04-16-2004, 05:31 PM

Negative.

Gwaihir could be used instead of Thorondor, if you want to.

Fingolfin II · 04-16-2004, 08:48 PM

Thorondor, the only one who doesn't have an "owner"? (I'm aware of Manwe, but he didn't really "own" him like Sam owned Bill and Celegorm owned Huan).

NightKnight · 04-16-2004, 08:50 PM

Nope.

Evisse the Blue · 04-17-2004, 11:22 AM

Thorondor the only one who did not come into conflict with his master:
Huan betrayed Celegorm to help Luthien;
Bill the Pony kicked his former master
Tevildo betrayed Morgoth

NightKnight · 04-18-2004, 04:05 AM

Nope.

Gothmog · 04-18-2004, 04:15 AM

This might be too easy, but anyway... They were all "special" creatures except for poor old Bill. Obviously Huan had special powers, a vala´s pet before he followed Celegorm. Tefildo was altered by Morgoth to grow much bigger and dangerous than an ordinary cat and Thorondor was one of the Great Eagle, large enough to carry a man without problems. But Bill, well he´s just a ordinary pony...

NightKnight · 04-18-2004, 04:18 AM

Nopes.

Evisse the Blue · 04-18-2004, 04:32 AM

Bill the Pony - the only one who could not speak?

NightKnight · 04-18-2004, 04:53 AM

You've got it.

Evisse the Blue · 04-18-2004, 05:07 AM

Ok, try this:

Silent Watchers
Thuringwethil
Winged Creature (Nazgul's steed)
Draugluin

NightKnight · 04-18-2004, 05:18 AM

Thuringwethil - the only one that wasn't a servant of Sauron?

Evisse the Blue · 04-18-2004, 08:08 AM

True but not what I had in mind.

Finwe · 04-18-2004, 02:08 PM

Silent Watchers, because they weren't killed when they were defeated

Evisse the Blue · 04-18-2004, 03:24 PM

Not that either.

Bombadil · 04-30-2004, 03:44 PM

Let's see, I haven't looked at recent ones in awhile, so i hope this isnt too similar to others...

name OCO:

Shagrat
The Balrog of Moria
The Barrow-wight
Grishnakh
The Great Goblin

NightKnight · 04-30-2004, 03:55 PM

The Balrog - The only one that didn't really meet a hobbit?

Bombadil · 04-30-2004, 04:37 PM

well i was thinking in terms of imprisonment of hobbits, but that's close enough. You're up!

NightKnight · 05-01-2004, 01:23 AM

Ah, yes. I should have thought about that.

Thorondor
The dragons that attacked Gondolin
Huan
The thrush in the Hobbit
Rochallor

Bombadil · 05-13-2004, 06:21 PM

with no replies, nor any answers I see fit for myself to post, would it be too much to ask for a clue?

Firefoot · 05-13-2004, 07:03 PM

Rochallor was the only one who couldn't talk?

NightKnight · 05-14-2004, 05:03 AM

I think Rochallor narrows the entire thing a bit. What was special with him?

And Firefoot, you are wrong.

Mad Baggins · 05-14-2004, 03:34 PM

Rochallor was the only one with hooves!

NightKnight · 05-15-2004, 04:07 AM

Wrong.

Fingolfin II · 05-15-2004, 05:37 AM

Rochallor, the only one owned by a High King of the Noldor?
