I forgot about Boromir, son of Denethor I

That was him. Interesting person he must have been, just from what is written about him... not to forget that Boromir of the Nine Walkers was named after him...

Your turn

I guess it was somehow a repeating pattern of the father called Denethor, and the son Boromir

Who wanted to punish others by throwing them into snake pits?

The Goblins of Misty-Mountains? The Great Goblin, namely.

I was hoping that Hobbit questions might be harder to answer

Legate of Amon Lanc · 03-17-2007, 02:37 PM

They do, but I just have some things (including the speech of the Great Goblin) in memory, so...

But if you say the Hobbit ones are more difficult, what about this: Which person owns red handkerchiefs? (or, at least owned one, which was borrowed by Bilbo - but this implies that this person owns more red handkerchiefs in general

)

Well, he took Elrond's red silk handkerchief...poor Elrond

Anyway, looking for the answer, I came across something else which I find interesting, but that's another topic

Who made Minas Anor the permanent residence of the king?
