Ringwraith Food - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

What do you expect the Ringwraiths eat? Do they eat actual food? Or do they just feed the ring or something?

Maikadilwen · 10-12-2002, 12:55 PM

Well, since they were "neither living nor dead" I don't think they ate anything at all. Besides, they were disembodied wraiths. No body that needed to be kept alive and running. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I agree with Maikadilwen, I don't think Wraiths ate anything.

Elenna · 10-12-2002, 02:28 PM

I can't really picture them sitting around a table eating pizza, can you?

Ah, the power of cheeeeeeeesssssse. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Seriously, I don't think they ate real food, but you might say that they "feed on fear." The Ring is really what keeps them going.

Well, then I guess on Halloween (I'm gonna be a ringwraith) I won't be eating pizza!!!

Hm...they probably didnt eat nething...but if I were a wraith Id eat...hobbit! jj...candy lots and lots of candy

I think Diamond18 is right in saying that they feed on fear, but maybe their Rings sustain them somehow as well. (And actually, Elenna, I could picture the Wraiths just hanging out in Minas Morgul eating pizza...) [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

"Um could we have three large deep-pan quattro formaggios and a bottle of Coke please?" <muttering> "Oh yes: and a side order of terror with extra loathing. Errr... you wouldn't happen to have any jewellery lying around there, would you? It's just that we're looking for this ring... OK. Oh yeah, it's "The Willows", 1 Dread Gardens, Minas Morgul. How long do you reckon? OK. Thanks."
