I has nothing to do with the Silmarils - it has however something to do with items ....

Elenhin · 11-26-2001, 05:30 AM

A wild guess: they all had something important crafted by Telchar the Dwarf-smith?

Aragorn had Narsil, Beren had Angrist, and Curufin, Hador and Turin all held the Helm of Dor-Lomin at some point (if my memory serves me correctly [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]).

Telchar · 11-26-2001, 06:25 AM

Very good Elenhin! Curufin of course held Angrist that Beren took from him. Proceed, Please [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Elenhin · 12-16-2001, 01:58 PM

Thanks, Telchar, and sorry for the delay... I had completely forgotten this thread.

Isildur
Echtelion
Anarion
Amroth
Brandir

Telchar · 12-17-2001, 03:48 AM

Im lost...

BtW Ecthelion of Gondolin - right??? and Anarion son of Isildur???

Elenhin · 12-17-2001, 09:49 AM

Ecthelion of Gondolin, Ecthelions of Gondor... they're almost the same, when it comes to this list - but it'll help you find the right answer if you'll think of the Ecthelions of Gondor.

I meant Anarion son of Isildur, but there most probably is a connection to Tar-Anarion, the eighth king of Numenor as well.

Cirdan the Shipwright · 01-10-2002, 12:50 PM

Okay, I have a zillion possibilities, except Brandir keeps getting in the way.

They all ruled Minas Anor / Minas Tirith for a time?

Each had one (surviving) son?

Each was slain treacherously?

- Let us know the answer ASAP. I have a phenomenally good question!

- Cirdan/Maglor68

Elenhin · 01-11-2002, 10:38 AM

Sorry, no.
Don't think of the persons that much - think of their names.
(Also, think of Gondor.)

bragolheledion · 01-12-2002, 07:56 AM

is it that they all delt on numeinor at a time

Elrian · 01-12-2002, 01:04 PM

They were all rulers of their people?

[ January 13, 2002: Message edited by: Elrian ]

Elenhin · 01-15-2002, 10:37 AM

Still no...

What do the names of these people have in common with Gondor?

Telchar · 01-16-2002, 03:30 AM

They are all namerelated to place names in Gondor

Isildur ---> Minas Ithil
Echtelion ---> The Tower of Ecthelion
Anarion ---> The land area Anarion
Amroth ---> Dol Amroth
Brandir ---> Tol Brandir

**The Saucepan Man** · 06-08-2004, 11:11 AM

*Bump*

Evisse the Blue · 10-09-2004, 09:39 AM

It's been way more than 10 days so...

Old Forest
Emyn Muil
Mirkwood
Moria

NightKnight · 10-09-2004, 02:10 PM

Gollum was never in the Old Forest?

Elenhin · 01-16-2002, 07:14 AM

Finally!

Your turn, Telchar.

Telchar · 01-16-2002, 08:13 AM

Ecthelion
Faramir
Denethor
Firiel
Boromir

Elrian · 01-16-2002, 11:50 PM

They were all from Gondor;
Ecthelion: Steward of Gondor
Denethor: Steward of Gondor
Firiel: Daughter of King Ondoher
Boromir: Captain of the White Tower
Faramir: Stewart of Gondor, Prince of Ithilien.

Telchar · 01-17-2002, 02:40 AM

NO - like before it is the name that is important.

Turambar · 01-17-2002, 11:39 AM

Wild guess - did they all borrow elven names?

Telchar · 01-18-2002, 02:14 AM

you're on the right track turambar ... just not there yet [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Turambar · 01-18-2002, 10:28 AM

Are they all names borne by two persons at least?

Telchar · 01-18-2002, 10:37 AM

well OK - Actually there are 15 caracters in ME that have those names - three each... GO ON

bragolheledion · 01-19-2002, 08:13 PM

is it that all the names have or had a place with the same name in the books somewhere
the tower of Ecthelion
and i know the silmarillion mentions the places boromir and denether

Turambar · 01-20-2002, 08:32 AM

Telchar - who are the other two Firiel's??
Bragolheledion - the answer was that each of those names were borne by three persons in Middle earth.

Anyway - try this one:- shouldn't be too hard:

Aragorn
Boromir
Finrod
Legolas

Eowyn of Ithilien · 01-20-2002, 03:48 PM

Boromir's the only one without any immortal blood???

Turambar · 01-20-2002, 07:41 PM

No this isn't an "Odd Man Out", all 4 have "One Thing in Common". [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

bragolheledion · 01-20-2002, 11:33 PM

i know this one they where all heirs to a throne

aragon-->heir of aranon king of gondor
boromir-->heir to the stewardship of gondor
finrod-->i think he is heir to fingol
legolas-->heir of thingol of mirkwood

bragolheledion · 01-20-2002, 11:34 PM

ooooops sorry Turambar [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Turambar · 01-21-2002, 06:55 AM

I didn't think of that bragolheledion - I was thinking of soemthing that all four of them did once.

Turambar · 01-23-2002, 09:20 AM

Hint - near Caradhras . . .

Elenhin · 01-23-2002, 01:27 PM

Hm... the Fellowship was attacked by wolves near Caradhras, and Finrod fought (and was killed by) wolves in Tol Sirion?

Turambar · 01-24-2002, 07:19 AM

Close enough - Aragorn, Boromir and Legolas all killed a wolf near Caradhra; Finrod killed a werewolf in Sauron's dungeons.

Elenhin · 01-24-2002, 11:14 AM

Not too hard, I think:

Feanor
Sauron
Celebrimbor
Telchar
Eol

Turambar · 01-24-2002, 12:20 PM

They were all smiths? Or did they all make a jewel or ornament? (Though I can't think of what jewel Eöl made.)

Gwaihir the Windlord · 01-25-2002, 12:46 AM

Smiths, I should think.

Elenhin · 01-26-2002, 01:39 PM

Smiths. Turambar gets it.
