Huinesoron got it
 
NINIEL: She is made of three elements in disarray.

6. Diminish an artificial sweetener for him (with slight adjustment).

Urwen 07-24-2019 02:48 AM

9 is the easiest.

Pervinca Took 07-24-2019 10:25 AM

NIPHREDIL for the password, perhaps?

Pervinca Took 07-24-2019 10:27 AM

Forget that.

9. STORMCROW?

Pervinca Took 07-24-2019 10:28 AM

Password: NICKNAMES.

Urwen 07-24-2019 10:38 AM

Yes. Will add when I get home.

Pervinca Took 07-24-2019 10:41 AM

5. NOM.

Name given to Finrod Felagund by Beor and his followers.

MOAN backwards, with the A unsung.

K could be KEMENTARI, which is nearly 'cement, tarry'.

Pervinca Took 07-25-2019 12:19 AM

Not seeing an element yet, but I've remembered a nickname beginning with C: CAMLOST.

Hang on, though. We need a ruse as well. I could not find a suitable word. Unless it's CHEAT?

Pervinca Took 07-25-2019 12:30 AM

I might be INGLORION.

Ori? Oin? Groin? Gloin? Nori? Loni?

The only praise element I can see is GLORY without the Y, which leaves the little-known dwarf Noin. :D

Pervinca Took 07-25-2019 12:34 AM

CELEBRINDAL.

A ruse could be a BLIND.

CELEAR is left ....

Hint: You used this exact name in one of your recent passwords.

Pervinca Took 07-25-2019 03:03 AM

IORHAEL.

And I thought of Iorhael yesterday but completely forgot to post it.

Ori + (sounds like hail).

Urwen 07-25-2019 03:20 AM

M: A confused Rohirric warrior gains direction, for him.
E: Chaotically, a small herb reveals her.
STORMCROW: He is made of a turbulence and a bird.

Changed the A clue slightly to make it more accurate.

Pervinca Took 07-25-2019 08:37 AM

I think Equal is a sweetener in America.

If you lose the Q and shuffle it, you can get AULE, but as far as I know that isn't a nickname.

Hang on, though ... ARAW is. Is there a sweetener containing those 4 letters?

Urwen 07-25-2019 09:42 AM

I edited that clue.

Pervinca Took 07-25-2019 10:20 AM

Aranel / Caramel?

Urwen 07-25-2019 10:22 AM

Nope.

Pervinca Took 07-26-2019 12:18 AM

Agarwaen / Aspartame.

Pervinca Took 07-26-2019 04:33 AM

C - CELEBORN has CON.

His original name WAS Teleporno, I believe.

Urwen 07-26-2019 04:57 AM

The ruse is CON, but it's not Celeborn. The clue says that it's an endless element inside a ruse, which doesn't fit with Celeborn.

Huinesoron 07-26-2019 05:51 AM

CUTHALION.

'Uthali' is an anagram of 'thaliu[m]'.

(Only got this because it's pretty much the only nickname in the set of CO??????N + C??????ON.)

The last two are Valarin nicknames.

Pervinca Took 07-26-2019 08:05 AM

The nearest thing to a herb I could find was Eierplant for ELENTARI.

Urwen 07-26-2019 08:54 AM

You got the right person, but look at her other nicknames.

Pervinca Took 07-26-2019 08:56 AM

Well, first of all I tried to find some kind of herb with 'berry' at the end for Elbereth, but without success.

Also, do I have to say 'it is your turn' in order for people to realize this?!

If you think I'm going to sacrifice quality time with my dad on holiday to post the password a couple of hours earlier, or ignore the fact that he is now old enough to need some assistance in order to post straight away that I will post it as soon as I am able, you have another think coming.

As it happens, I worked out another one on the coach.

Hope you like it.

1. A French circle spins for him.
2. Burrowing mammals' concerts and insects' pity combine for them.
3. Festival articles for her.
4. A claw and a nun's cap were sedentary, before they spun around for him.
5. Shop changes tune, unwilling, for him.
6. Confused Field Marshal at start of Merseyside peninsula transforms for him.
7. Wander unmethodically for him.
8. A unit of measure, a vowel shift ... shuffle and see her.

Urwen 07-26-2019 03:10 PM

1. Elrond (from Le Rond)

Pervinca Took 07-26-2019 03:47 PM

Nope.

Urwen 07-26-2019 04:14 PM

The only words I could find were ROND and CERCLE.

Pervinca Took 07-27-2019 04:36 AM

You are turning the wrong bit into French.

P.S. Clues 6 and 7 are probably the easiest ones.
