Daughter of Larnach->Glaurung->Melkor->Manwe->Yavanna->Treebeard

It may be a bit of a stretch (Glaurung was killed in Brethil where Larnach's daughter resided), but this one seems like it may work.

Lindolirian · 01-11-2004, 07:54 PM

Yeah, it's a tad more of a stretch than I'd like, especially since the only people that Glaurung in Brethil met were Turin and Hunthor and even Hunthor's close to a stretch.

Larnach's daughrer -> Beleg -> Thingol -> Melian -> Galadriel -> Treebeard

or

Larnach's daughter - Beleg -> Thingol -> Orome -> Yavanna -> Treebeard

Lindolirian · 01-12-2004, 02:45 PM

Your first answer is good enough for me.

Ruitha · 01-15-2004, 11:44 AM

Okay, an easy one, as my last one was pretty evil. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Erendis -> Feanor.

Elrond of Rivendell · 01-15-2004, 12:12 PM

Erendis -> Tar-Aldarion -> Gil-galad -> Fingon -> Fingolfin -> Feänor

Ruitha · 01-15-2004, 03:29 PM

Fine; I think there were several ways. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Go ahead!

Elrond of Rivendell · 01-15-2004, 06:17 PM

Thank you.

Fengel -> Henderch

Restrictions:
- No Theoden
- No Istari
- No Hobbit

Lindolirian · 01-15-2004, 07:42 PM

Fengel-> Thengel-> Thorongil-> Elrond-> Gil-galad-> Tar-Aldarion-> Henderch

Elrond of Rivendell · 01-15-2004, 07:47 PM

Erm ... well ... this is perfectly correct. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Well done Lindolirian. Your go.

Greetings,
EfR

Lindolirian · 01-16-2004, 09:49 PM

Sagroth-> Maedhros

No Elves, 'cept Maedhros a course.

Lindolirian · 01-22-2004, 06:10 PM

Too hard? Hint: Sagroth is mentioned in the War of the Jewels.

Pallando B.C · 01-31-2004, 04:05 AM

Sagroth ->Húrin ->Fingon ->Maedhros

Lindolirian · 02-01-2004, 12:54 PM

Nice to see you again Pallando!
Sorry, I wanted it done without Elves (except Maedhros). You're on the right track though!

Ruitha · 02-02-2004, 12:29 PM

Well, to keep it short...

Sagroth -> Hurin -> Morgoth -> Maedhros, or
Sagroth -> Hurin -> Thorondor -> Maedhros.

But that should maybe be Pallando's, I'd never have got there had he not supplied Hurin....

Lindolirian · 02-02-2004, 02:57 PM

Yup, either of those will work.

Ruitha · 02-05-2004, 10:11 AM

Uh, right. I'm tired ... can't think ... I'll give y'all a nice easy one, for a change. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Elphir -> Oropher

I probably should place restrictions, but have not the energy to work it out whilst they stand ... so go ahead, get there however you please.

(Whatever I next do will be better, I promise...!)

NightKnight · 02-07-2004, 10:37 AM

Elphir -> Imrahil -> Aragorn -> Legolas -> Thranduil -> Oropher

Something like that?

Miriel · 02-08-2004, 01:36 PM

Um, this is Ruitha...
I have no way to prove it, but I lost my password then realised the site only has my old email address, so not really sure how to get that account back. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
And this is fine, although you could've missed out Aragorn.
Go ahead. Or, if you don't feel you can believe me, wait the ten days then go ahead. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

NightKnight · 02-08-2004, 03:10 PM

Yeah, thought of that later. :P

Try this: Finduilas (1st Age) -> Finduilas (3rd Age)

Miriel · 02-08-2004, 03:14 PM

Finduilas -> Orodreth -> Galadriel -> Boromir -> Finduilas

NightKnight · 02-08-2004, 03:41 PM

Works fine. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Miriel · 02-12-2004, 11:38 AM

Okay, here goes....

Ibun -> Orome

No Ainur, no Turin, and a maximum of one Elf.

Lindolirian · 02-12-2004, 03:31 PM

Ibun-> Mîm->Hùrin->Turgon->Oromë

Miriel · 02-13-2004, 10:05 AM

Different from my way, but looks fine.

Go ahead!

Lindolirian · 02-13-2004, 02:50 PM

Manwendil-> Annael

Miriel · 02-15-2004, 07:13 AM

Manwendil -> Elros -> Earendil -> Tuor -> Annael

Lindolirian · 02-15-2004, 12:37 PM

Very nice. Continue!

Miriel · 02-21-2004, 06:54 AM

Hrm ... Sador Labadal -> Radagast

NightKnight · 02-21-2004, 07:22 AM

Sador Labadal -> Turin -> Melian -> Galadriel -> (Frodo ->) Gwaihir -> Radagast

I'm not sure if Galadriel met Gwaihir, but he did bring Gandalf to Caras Galadhon, so the chance is big.

Miriel · 02-21-2004, 08:18 AM

Looks good.

Would probably have been quicker to go from Radagast to Yavanna (and from there you have several options), but this is fine.

NightKnight · 02-22-2004, 02:17 PM

Vana -> Gothmog

No elves.

Lindolirian · 02-22-2004, 05:28 PM

Not as simple as Vana-> Melkor-> Gothmog is it?

NightKnight · 02-22-2004, 06:02 PM

Oops, missed that possibility. But you're right, it's not that simple.

Lindolirian · 02-22-2004, 06:37 PM

Good...
Vana-> (Manwë)-> Ëarendil-> (Tuor)-> Gothmog

NightKnight · 02-22-2004, 06:48 PM

Eärendil is half-elven...and do it without the valar.

Lindolirian · 02-24-2004, 03:49 PM

Gothmog-> Húrin-> Túrin-> Melian-> Vána

NightKnight · 02-25-2004, 03:30 AM

Works fine.

Lindolirian · 02-25-2004, 06:37 AM

This is actually a seven degrees of separation, unless you cut out one or even two of the people in favor of an assumed connection. Anyway, its really close and not too hard, so check it out:
Saeros-> Saelon

Lindolirian · 03-02-2004, 08:14 AM

Now this isn't too hard... Use your heads, people!
