Lúthien

Beren or Aragorn?

Tinuviel the Nightingale · 05-06-2003, 06:43 AM

GaladrieloftheOlden · 05-06-2003, 10:43 AM

Ungoliant.
Vana or Lorien?

~Menelien

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 05-06-2003, 02:59 PM

Vana

Lorien ME or Lorien in Valinor?

Tinuviel the Nightingale · 05-06-2003, 06:11 PM

Lorien ME.

Nenya or Narya?

Nerindel · 05-07-2003, 08:28 AM

Nenya...

Elrond or Galadriel?

Lyra Greenleaf · 05-08-2003, 12:40 PM

Er, Elrond! Maybe...

Sorry if this has been done...Isildur or Anarion?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 05-10-2003, 10:24 AM

Anarion's underrated [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Elendil or Gil-Galad?

Phervasaion · 05-13-2003, 01:33 PM

Elendil

Aragorn or Faramir

Nerindel · 05-13-2003, 06:13 PM

Faramir [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Theoden or Denethor?

Tinuviel Took · 05-14-2003, 09:24 AM

Theoden, kinder man of lesser lore any day.

Oruk-hai or Troll?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 05-14-2003, 09:54 AM

Trolls, since Oruk-Hai seems to be a funny cross between Olog-Hai and Uruk-Hai and that would be quite frightening to encounter. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Bolgers or Boffins?

Luinalatawen · 05-24-2003, 01:40 PM

Bolgers.

Smaug or Glaurung?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 05-24-2003, 04:02 PM

Glaurung, hands down.

Varda or Elbereth (which name is better?)

GaladrieloftheOlden · 05-25-2003, 11:08 PM

Varda.

Isildur or Anarion? (Also which name do you like more, though they are different people, not like Varda/Elbereth...)

~Menelien

Beruthiel · 05-26-2003, 01:55 AM

Anarion

Faramir or Boromir?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 05-26-2003, 11:47 AM

Faramir, funny how my answer never changes as often as this question comes up... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Frodo Baggins or Bingo Bolger-Baggins?

Nerindel · 05-26-2003, 05:18 PM

Frodo Baggins [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Ted Sandyman or the Gaffer?

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 05-26-2003, 08:01 PM

What kind of question is that? The Gaffer. It's like asking

Theodred or Grima? [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Tinuviel Took · 05-27-2003, 05:54 AM

Shhh... Meela might hear you, and that is not the same sort of thing in her mind.

Arestevana · 05-27-2003, 05:23 PM

This is an awesome quiz. I have to say Theodred, because the movie really keeps me off the subject of Grima. He was okay, maybe a cause for pity, until the movie turned him into that....thing. So Theodred.
Which story seems sadder to you?
Niniel's or Finduilas'?

Finwe · 05-27-2003, 05:41 PM

Hmmm... I'd say Finduilas. She gave up the love of a nice Elf like Gwindor, and ended up falling for Turin (one messed up man!) Not that it was his fault or anything.

Who's duel with the Dark Lord was more dramatic? Fingolfin or Gil-galad?

Nerindel · 05-28-2003, 07:45 AM

Hmm.. they didn't fight the same Dark Lord did they?

Didn't Fingolfin battle Morgoth and Gil-galad battled Sauron?

Anyways [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] I'd have to say Fingolfin, after all he did wound Morgoth seven times [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Fingon or Turgon

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 05-28-2003, 07:35 PM

Turgon, I don't know why, but I always found Fingon rather boring.

Which twins are better:

Amrod and Amras or Elrohir and Elladan?

Arestevana · 06-01-2003, 02:10 PM

Elrohir and Elladen: they're still alive. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
Rana or Vasa?

[ June 01, 2003: Message edited by: Arestevana ]

Lasgalen · 06-02-2003, 02:34 AM

Rana (I am a night owl)

Finwe or Ingwe?

Arestevana · 06-02-2003, 03:20 PM

Ingwe. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
Gamgees or Cottons?

Nerindel · 06-02-2003, 05:21 PM

Gamgees [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

The Green Dragon or The Prancing pony?

Elentarimir · 06-02-2003, 05:33 PM

Prancing Pony!

Meriadoc Brandybuck or Peregrin Took?

Lasgalen · 06-02-2003, 07:05 PM

Laurelin or Lorellin?

Faenaduial · 06-03-2003, 02:46 PM

Laurelin

The Walking Song or the Bath Song

Nerindel · 06-03-2003, 04:37 PM

The Bath song [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Rohirrim or Gondorian?

Lasgalen · 06-03-2003, 05:04 PM

Rohirrim. gotta love them horses.

Amon Hen or Amon Lhaw

Sophia the Thunder Mistress · 06-03-2003, 06:27 PM

Amon Hen... Who needs hearing? I know sign [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img].

Gwindor's lamp or Galadriel's Phial?

Faenaduial · 06-04-2003, 10:14 AM

Galadriel's Phial

Illuin or Ormal?

Horse-Maiden of the Shire · 06-04-2003, 11:16 AM

Ormal.

Aiglos or Narsil?

Lasgalen · 06-04-2003, 01:16 PM

Aeglos

Belthronding or Anglachel

Faenaduial · 06-04-2003, 02:10 PM

Belthronding

Ringil or Angrist?
