LOL...ok.
How many children did Sam and Rose have?

It was Sam's turn that day to take the first watch, but Aragorn joined him. The silence grew until even Sam felt it. The occasional movements of his feet became loud noises. Sam could hear his own joints creaking, if he stirred.

That indeed would be the number Mr. #10, sir (wondering how a Nazgul would know that... )

Sam eased the pack on his shoulders, and went over anxiously in his mind all the things which were stowed in it: his chief treasure, his cooking gear; and the little box of salt that he always carried and refilled when he could; woolen hose; linen; various small belongings of his master's that Frodo had forgotten and Sam had stowed to bring them all out in triumph when they were called for. He went through them all.

since a question was not asked:

In the Fifth Battle of the War of Beleriand, someone killed the first dragon. Where was he lord of?

or, if that's too hard...what was the name of the first dragon?

Me me!

Thráin was the father of Thorin Oakenshield and lord of the people of Durin. One of the mightiest warriors of his age, he gathered the scattered companies of the Dwarves together to avenge the death of his father, and led them during the great and terrible War of the Dwarves and Orcs.

Denethor, steward of Gondor.

Thank you InklingElf btw, for keeping this to an easy level for the beginers who desperately need an easy trivia question. It would be nice to keep this limited to LotR and the Hobbit really. It would eliminate a lot of the complaints about not being able to jump into a topic because they're knowledge base isn't wide enough as of yet.
