Did Manwė meet Gandalf? Lórien or Nienna would have been more plausable, but i'll still give it to you, since you were on the right track.

Well, Gandalf was a Maia of Manwė and Varda, though also Nienna’s greatest pupil. SO Manwė works.

Elros->Orodreth

Ar-Zimraphel - Elmo

(this is probably pretty easy as well)

Did you mean Ulmo. Only because I've never read about an Elmo.

If you did...

Ar-Zimraphel ->Ar- Pharazōn -> Sauron ->Melkor ->Ulmo


Note: I haven't read Akallabźth for a long time and I'm not sure if Mķriel met Sauron. If so.

Ar-Zimraphel ->Sauron ->Melkor ->Ulmo

Nope I didnt, but a good connection. Elmo is Elwe and Olwe's younger brother (according to UT) and it seems to be held as fact though i am not sure about that. My previous question still stands.

I didn't think so:

In that case:

Ar- Zimraphel ->Sauron ->Melkor ->Beren ->Elwė ->Elmo

Great, mine went like thus:

Ar-Zimraphel - Elendil - Elrond - Celeborn - Elmo

or was it

Ar-Zimraphel - Elendil - Gil-Galad - Fingon - Celeborn - Elmo

but perhaps that one doesn't work. The first one definately does because I am assuming Celeborn did know his grandfather.

Your turn!

Adrahil-Imrahil-Gandalf-Thorin II-Frerin

Adrahil was either the father or grandfather of Imrahil, either way they would have met.

And btw, WHERE on earth do you pull these characters. I didn't even know who Adrahil was!

Heh!
Very nice Beren - your turn.

Adrahil was also Denethor's father-in-law, so the connection could have been made that way.

That's why I didn't use him in my connection. Try again, but without him.
