It is not. I think the straight clue is pretty direct here, and it's a major chunk of NoME (though I know that doesn't help much).
New page: NUMENOR - The numinous root, otherwise known as a gift. AROMA - Perfume from one Italian city. 3. T - Chronic rails, year by year. UNBEGOTTEN - A French one, conceived by the first to rise. RADAGAST - Not grey... not gray, a German guest. ELLIPSE - In the round, Hell ends, and I am retro-telepathy. ORIGINS - Let's begin: Oh, snigger backwards, but with me instead of the example. FEAR - Spiritually scary. MELIAN - The queen's scrambled citrus - o! Change it for two others. ENTERTAINMENT - Go in, men in the corruption, and enjoy it. hS

Precisely! The first third of NoME is basically all timelines.
NUMENOR - The numinous root, otherwise known as a gift. AROMA - Perfume from one Italian city. TIMELINES - Chronic rails, year by year. UNBEGOTTEN - A French one, conceived by the first to rise. RADAGAST - Not grey... not gray, a German guest. ELLIPSE - In the round, Hell ends, and I am retro-telepathy. ORIGINS - Let's begin: Oh, snigger backwards, but with me instead of the example. FEAR - Spiritually scary. MELIAN - The queen's scrambled citrus - o! Change it for two others. ENTERTAINMENT - Go in, men in the corruption, and enjoy it. Theme: topics in The Nature of Middle-earth And over to Pervinca. ![]() hS

Very good password, hS, and very topical!
Here's one I made earlier: 1. Two French determiners add five for the life of him, but get her instead. 2. Destroy portal – destroy it all! Sauron would have, if he’d thought of it! 3. See him claim a glory within it. 4. See him lambast, then lose his way in the confusion of making something soapy. 5. Loan offal (for a feast?) around here? 6. Is David’s enemy just slightly confused here? 7. Additional potassium mixes with a little lithium before he’s revealed. 8. Latin hurrah meets Bible girl bereft of alternating current to reveal him. 9. See him change direction on the way to Damascus – onerously, for a while. 10. Behold! Tear! Reassemble him! 11. Here, it’s broad and troubled around a London suburb.

I wonder if 7 is MELKOR. MORE + K + L(i... or ithium, I suppose).

Try 3. Just read it. It's easy.
10. 2 synonyms, then scramble them.

LO is correct. Hie isn't.
5 is another where you take 2 synonyms and scramble them.

No, it's the literal meaning of tear, as in rip, (but not rip).

P could be Panthael - Pan = lambast (as in a review), and thael is lather - R.

It's a wrap!
CELEBRIAN: Two French determiners add five for the life of him, but get her instead.
ORODRUIN: Destroy portal – destroy it all! Sauron would have, if he’d thought of it! MAGLOR: See him claim a glory within it. PANTHAEL: See him lambast, then lose his way in the confusion of making something soapy. RIVENDELL: Loan offal (for a feast?) around here? OSGILIATH: Is David’s enemy just slightly confused here? MELKOR: Additional potassium mixes with a little lithium before he’s revealed. IORHAEL: Latin hurrah meets Bible girl bereft of alternating current to reveal him. SAURON: See him change direction on the way to Damascus – onerously, for a while. ELROND: Behold! Tear! Reassemble him! DWIMORDENE: Here, it’s broad and troubled around a London suburb. RIVENDELL is LOAN LIVER. SAURON = SAUL - L + ON(EROUSLY). Perfect reasoning for DWIMORDENE and PANTHAEL. All compromised in some way, I trust you'll agree. And over to Urwen!

1. Your, we hear, inside an element. For him.
2. Troubled precipitation reveals her. 3. Noah's son returns. A broken reward and a direction lead to her. 4. Behold, a stern and troubled man! 5. Gaseous mixture meets a place he lives in. Twist it to find him. 6. A star loses Cobb. Add a Roman 1000 and a broken round ball for him
