The Eye Middle Earth Names

I'm not sure this game will be popular here as it was on another forum i've been to, but the game is simple.

EXP:

Captain Grishnahk: Gimli, a dwarf son of Gloin (or anything about the character.

The Barrow Wight: Istari (then somthing about them)

You have to say a name from Middle Earth that begins with the last letter of the previous name. It starts out easy, but as the game continues the names are harder and harder to find.

I'll start out:

Grishnakh, Captain of the Dark Tower of Mordor, slain by the Rohirrm in the Two Towers

Does it have to be someone's name or can it be a place? if a place is possible then I shall say

Rohan, land of the Rohorrim or Eorlingas as they call themselves

Not so sure if this one counts...

LothlorieN: the home of the lady Galadriel and Lord Celeborn.

Yes, there is. I think it's the same game. Maybe a mod could close this and we can switchover?

Necromancer - Sauron

This game is a bit different in the fact that you have to tell a bit about the person, place, or what ever you use. In the other one you just have to list the name/ word. If it closes we will at least know where the other one is I guess.

In the other one, you have the option to write something about what you put down. Or you can be like me and write pretty much a whole paragraph on it!!
