Hey dudes, thought I'd start a new thread. Okay, I've got a new game, at least I hope it's new. I'm gonna write something that has to do with LotR, and someone else has to look at the last letter of the word/phrase and write a word that begins with it, you can't reuse any words. Sound fun? I'll do the first one: Gilgilad.

Sounds like this thread. But, er... check out the last post.

Well there have been threads like this before and, yes, they have been closed for not being sufficiently challenging.

But I don't see the problem in a little light relief if people want it, so I'll let it pass ...

Edit: I've (re-)closed that old thread. But along the lines of the game that was being played there, it might make this game a bit more interesting of each person was to say a little bit about the character, object, event etc that they name.

Rohirrim.

And perhaps the person starting a game could limit it in some way (1st, 2nd, 3rd age; or kelvar, or a particular race, or a location, etc.)?

Elvish name for Dwarves - translation of Naugrim

Eldar- a group name for all the elves that began the great journey from Cuiviénen.

Is it worth mentioning that each answer shouldn't be used more than once within a theme?

River Folk.
What Smeagol and Deagol were.

Kelvar one of the two basic types of being created at the beginning of Arda. Kelvar were animals, whereas their counterparts, the Olvar were plants.

Ring-wraiths. They are not technically the race, but they are not merely men either?
