Aragorn is the only one who did not go to the Grey Havens. He did not possess the Ring at any time either.

Ultimatejoe · 02-13-2003, 05:32 PM

This is the one thing in common thread. You're looking for "odd man out"

They all encountered the "eye" of Sauron?

Lindolirian · 02-13-2003, 06:53 PM

Whoops. Duh. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir · 02-13-2003, 07:36 PM

Nope. I'll give a little hint.

It happened to them in this order:

Aragorn
Sam
Frodo

[img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir · 02-16-2003, 07:35 PM

A bump and a hint:

Something happened to each of the three, for Aragorn and Sam is quickly passed, but for Frodo it lasted the rest of his days.

What do they have in common?

Aragorn
Sam
Frodo

elven maiden Earwen · 02-16-2003, 07:40 PM

dang cant think of it but it has to do with Aragorn-plantir
Sam-ring
Frodo-ring
exprincing pain or grief or something like that

Rochelle · 02-16-2003, 08:00 PM

Was it their experience with the wraiths on Amon Sûl?

Tar-Palantir · 02-16-2003, 09:02 PM

No. One more (big!) hint:

it was an injury they all suffered, but not from a weapon.

elven maiden Earwen · 02-16-2003, 09:21 PM

stress, grief, weary older by the burrden of the ring or looking into the plantir

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-18-2003, 02:21 PM

They were all bitten by Smeagol/Gollum?

Tar-Palantir · 02-18-2003, 05:22 PM

Ding, ding, ding! we have a winner. Good job The Saucepan Man - your turn.

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-18-2003, 08:11 PM

Thank you, Tar-Palantir. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

More difficult than you think trying to come up with one, isn't it? Oh well, let's try this one:

Gandalf the White
Hamfast Gamgee
Eowyn

Pallando B.C · 02-18-2003, 08:58 PM

Did they all account a Nazgûl?

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-18-2003, 09:02 PM

Pallando BC, what do you mean by "account"?

Pallando B.C · 02-18-2003, 09:08 PM

Speaking.

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-18-2003, 09:11 PM

Yup, that's it. They all conversed with a Nazgul. looks like its your turn ...

Pallando B.C · 02-18-2003, 10:03 PM

Righty-O

• Eönwë
• Gandalf
• Gilthoniel
• Melkor

Lindolirian · 02-19-2003, 03:09 PM

They are all related to Manwë. Gilthoniel is Varda, his wife. Éonwë was also known as Fionwë, son of Manwë. Melkor is his brother. And Gandalf, or Ólorin is a Maia in his service.

Pallando B.C · 02-20-2003, 03:34 AM

Yes, Quite East for you, Lindolirian

Lindolirian · 02-20-2003, 07:51 PM

Mablung
Daeron
Draugluin
Saeros

And no, the answer has NOTHING to do with Doriath.

elven maiden Earwen · 02-25-2003, 04:41 PM

help!!cant think of anything but there all dead?????? i need a hint please!!!

Lindolirian · 02-25-2003, 06:08 PM

If you knew my interests *hint hint* you would probably guess it quite easily.

Pallando B.C · 02-26-2003, 02:30 AM

By your interests, do you mean:

Quote:

Eating Food, reading LotR, having fun

I don't know what that gives me. The all liked meats of some sort. Or some sort of specific food?

Lindolirian · 02-26-2003, 03:37 PM

I'll give it to ya. They were all decribed eating in the Silmarillion. Hey, I was hungry at the time!

Tar-Palantir · 02-26-2003, 07:30 PM

oh my, that was a odd one wasn't it? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Pallando B.C · 02-27-2003, 04:21 AM

Yes it was, lucky I got it!

Dior
Frodo
Aragorn
Christopher Tolkien

Annunfuiniel · 02-27-2003, 05:20 AM

They all inherited something "great" from their relatives?
Dior: the Silmaril
Frodo: The Ring (+Bag-End and all)
Aragorn: shards of Narsil (and the ring of Barahir)
Christopher Tolkien: the scripts of his father!

Pallando B.C · 02-27-2003, 05:27 AM

Your on the right path.

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-27-2003, 05:34 AM

They are all described as "heirs":

Dior - Thingol's heir

Frodo - Bilbo's heir (to Bag End)

Aragorn - Isildur's heir

Christopher Tolkien - don't know for sure, but presumably heir to his father's works.

Pallando B.C · 02-27-2003, 04:18 PM

That's the word I was looking for.

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-27-2003, 09:12 PM

Righty-ho. Here's my offering:

Manwe Sulimo
Tom Bombadil
Kili

Lindolirian · 02-28-2003, 02:52 PM

They were all known for their good vision.

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-28-2003, 07:11 PM

Nope, that's not what I'm looking for.

Fili and Thorin could be added to the list, and there are two others that I could add, but they would give it away.

Durelin · 02-28-2003, 07:31 PM

All three wore blue!

Manwe - clothing and sceptre (and eyes)

Tom - a blue feather in his hat and I believe his coat was also blue

Kili - his cloak and hood (the same with Thorin and Fili I think)

That's kinda far fetched, but you never know. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-28-2003, 08:07 PM

Spot on Durelin. The other two would, of course, have been Alatar and Pallando.

Not so far-fetched after all. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Your go.

Durelin · 02-28-2003, 08:27 PM

Yay! Here's an easy one (I think):

Azog
Vardamir
Deor

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-28-2003, 08:51 PM

Were they all killed by Dwarves? Azog and Dior were, but I don't know about Vardamir.

Tar-Palantir · 02-28-2003, 10:04 PM

It's Deor not Dior, and Deor was not killed by a dwarf. So far I'm stumped...

**The Saucepan Man** · 02-28-2003, 10:08 PM

Oh, I'd not come across Deor before ...

Are they all kings?

Azog was a goblin-king. Vardamir was a king of Numenor. Deor was a king of Rohan.

Durelin · 03-01-2003, 03:10 PM

I'm tempted to count that wrong since you sounded so unsure, Saucepan Man! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Yes, they were all kings. Told you it was easy! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
