1. GRISHNAKH: Arab handmaid ate Jewish pastry- the upset without 440 produced a fiend (sword-hand pierced by an arrow)
2. SAURON: Get out? Nein! He's backwards! (dactylectomy by Isildur) 3. BEREN: Remember England; he was in there. (wolf with the munchies) 4. ???T???: Bluetooth gets garbled after tea, so you'll have to unscramble him 5. MAEDHROS: He's like, "Crazy beach, crazy!" (hand amputated by Fingon, *and* burned by a Silmaril) 6. MAGLOR: Glam rocker without even thinking- he was the first and might be the last (burned by a Silmaril) 7. ???N???: Key crew! Activity will reveal him 8. ???D???: He's a dunce on one side |
Two, Left and right
So Frodo (Doof+R) |
Harold + T as in for T.
It gives Tharold. Is there a character named Tharold? Or maybe Hurin injured his hand somehow..... |

10. Isildur (Isil+Dur)
5. Morgoth (Mor+Goth) |
Harald Blatand, that's how.
|
Wasn't it Morgoth's foot that was hurt? The elements fit, though.
|
Or Haraldr, but I don't see how the Tea part of the clue fits there.....

His hands were burned when he stole the Silmarili. |
Maybe 'Haradrim'?

Frodo is not correct?

Can't recall any other characters with injured hands.

Oh, come on. "Tea" is the easiest bit in the whole table! |

Key crew activity is steering.
|
All right: both of the characters remaining appear as characters in the main text of the Silmarillion and/or Lord of the Rings. But the specific bits required for this puzzle are found elsewhere (not HME, in case you were worried)
|
Feanor and Tuor.
But which of these fits the clue? |
Quote:
|
They're the only ones I've listed early on. Apart from Thingol, that is.
|
Quote:
Sorry, it was Pervinca's guess. Somebody listed him, anyway |
The only others that were listed early are Fingolfin and Finarfin......and 'Fingolfin' contains 'log' in his name.....
|
Sam's hand got hurt after he tried cutting Shelob's web and the one strand he managed to sever whipped his hand. ;)
My only guesses were Frodo, Isildur and Gollum, and neither Gollum nor Smeagol have either of the red letters still required. Unless you use one of Sam's nicknames for him: SLINKER or STINKER. |
4 is T + an anagram of HARALD. All you have to do is get the reference.
8 refers to a sport |
Golfing?
|
No. It's a sport probably bigger in England than over here, but the term involved is (I believe) Yank-only. It's also particularly associated with Oxford (and Cambridge)
|
Is Trahald Gollum?

Yes! Appendix F. Trahald was Smeagol in "real" Westron. 1. GRISHNAKH: Arab handmaid ate Jewish pastry- the upset without 440 produced a fiend (sword-hand pierced by an arrow) 2. SAURON: Get out? Nein! He's backwards! (dactylectomy by Isildur) 3. BEREN: Remember England; he was in there. (wolf with the munchies) 4. TRAHALD: Bluetooth gets garbled after tea, so you'll have to unscramble him (hands hurt by Sauron's torturers) 5. MORGOTH: Black. Black clothes, black outlook (burned by Silmarils) 6. MAEDHROS: He's like, "Crazy beach, crazy!" (hand amputated by Fingon, *and* burned by a Silmaril) 7.

It was buried somewhere in my memory. I couldn't remember where I might have read it.
|
4. Stinker?
|
I guess the sport would be rowing. Punting is just a leisure activity, not a sport.

Quote:
There we go. In America, but not Britain, rowing is usually referred to as "crew." |
and the key is a computer key, right?
|
Wait, is 8 GWINDOR (ROWING + D)?
