OK, this is my second shot at the LOTR quizzes. Here’s the question:

Which character’s tomb was found in Moria?

Hint: This character is not seen in the movie.

Tinuviel the Nightingale · 04-05-2003, 01:40 AM

Was it Balin son of Fundin?

The Evenstar · 04-05-2003, 11:02 AM

Correct! OK, you can continue.

Tinuviel the Nightingale · 04-05-2003, 10:09 PM

Who posesses the Elven ring Nenya?

Beren87 · 04-05-2003, 10:21 PM

Galadriel!

Tinuviel the Nightingale · 04-07-2003, 05:49 AM

Yes you are of course, very correct. Your go.

05-08-2004, 12:32 PM

*clears throat* your go

NightKnight · 05-08-2004, 02:08 PM

It's over a year since anyone asked anything in here, so I think the 10 days-rule applies here. Anyone?

I think it does.

NightKnight · 05-09-2004, 01:19 AM

So...

Which characters were killed by Sauron in the end of the Second Age?

Melonwen · 05-09-2004, 07:51 AM

Gil-galad and Elendil were slain by Sauron at the end of the second age.

NightKnight · 05-10-2004, 10:24 AM

Yes, they were. It's your turn to ask a new question.

Melonwen · 05-10-2004, 12:49 PM

From whom did Gandalf receive Narya and why?

Son of Númenor · 05-10-2004, 12:55 PM

Cirdan the Shipwright. Cirdan knew Gandalf's true nature as a guide to Middle-earth in the fight against Sauron, and felt that Narya, by nature a kindler of hearts, would help Gandalf to rally the people of Middle-earth to victory.

Melonwen · 05-10-2004, 07:33 PM

Fabulous standardized-test-worthy answer! It is your turn.
Wow...can you tell I'm a teacher?

Son of Númenor · 05-15-2004, 04:14 PM

What character had an elderly companion named Zamîn in his/her childhood home?

Firefoot · 05-15-2004, 07:38 PM

Tar-Ancalimë, the first Queen of Númenor.

Son of Númenor · 05-15-2004, 07:58 PM

Righto.

Firefoot · 05-16-2004, 05:06 AM

How old was Frodo when Bilbo adopted him?

NightKnight · 05-16-2004, 01:02 PM

21?

Firefoot · 05-16-2004, 03:21 PM

Yes.

NightKnight · 05-16-2004, 03:23 PM

What was the age difference between Pippin and Bergil?

Firefoot · 05-16-2004, 03:29 PM

18 years.

NightKnight · 05-16-2004, 03:37 PM

Yes.

Firefoot · 05-16-2004, 04:23 PM

What were the names of Isildur's sons?

Son of Númenor · 05-16-2004, 04:47 PM

Elendur, Aratan, Ciryon & Valandil?

Firefoot · 05-17-2004, 01:55 PM

Quite right.

Sirithheruwen · 05-25-2004, 03:46 PM

*sing-song voice* Oh, Son of Numenor? Where, oh where, oh where can you be?

Son of Númenor · 05-25-2004, 04:20 PM

Terribly sorry. I was much too busy sitting here doing nothing.

What hereditary title was held by Samwise Gamgee's son-in-law?

Fingolfin II · 05-25-2004, 08:59 PM

Warden of Westmarch.

Son of Númenor · 05-29-2004, 02:20 PM

Right.

Fingolfin II · 05-29-2004, 07:41 PM

Hmm, can't think of a hard one, so:

What were the names of Thorin's nephews?

NightKnight · 05-30-2004, 04:49 AM

Fili and Kili.

Fingolfin II · 05-31-2004, 01:13 AM

Correctomundo.

NightKnight · 05-31-2004, 12:29 PM

How many granddaughters did Finwë have?

Firefoot · 05-31-2004, 04:13 PM

two - Galadriel and Aredhel.

NightKnight · 06-01-2004, 08:47 AM

Yep.

Firefoot · 06-01-2004, 01:50 PM

Thanks. How many times was Sam elected Mayor?

Morsul the Dark · 06-01-2004, 02:01 PM

once?

Firefoot · 06-01-2004, 02:07 PM

Nope.
