"Bad Guy" Trivia - Page 13 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

symestreem · 03-26-2004, 04:26 PM

Who was the scoundrel who was obsessed with addictive substances?

symestreem · 04-03-2004, 12:00 PM

Anyone? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Lindolirian · 04-03-2004, 04:27 PM

Saruman, because he liked pipe weed, perhaps?

The Perky Ent · 04-03-2004, 04:54 PM

This is reallllllllly far out but, Sauron, because he was in Mordor, and Mt. Doom was expelling all that sulfuric fumes, so he could have been entoxicated?!?

symestreem · 04-03-2004, 06:43 PM

Lindolirian has it, but Perky Ent gets definite points for creativity!!!

(Thought that was appropriate...)

Lindolirian · 04-05-2004, 06:38 PM

What bad guy ended "dumbfounded in the midst of his rage"?
*Not an exact quote... I don't have me book

Durelin · 04-05-2004, 07:03 PM

I'm trying to think of a likely bad guy that was chewed out by Gandalf...I expect you would most often find a baddie speechless after a verbal beating from Gandalf... A guess, for sure: Denethor.

Or is he even an actual 'Bad Guy'. Hmmmm...he seems to fit fairly well...

Finwe · 04-05-2004, 09:36 PM

Boromir? I don't know if he technically counts as a bad guy.

The Perky Ent · 04-05-2004, 10:10 PM

This is going movie, but is it Saruman? Because Saruman is giving a lecture about embracing the ring or his own destruction, and then he says his thing about him not sharing power and ditching him?

Lindolirian · 04-06-2004, 06:31 AM

None of the above!

BTW, I don't quiz the movies unless I specifically say that I am, which is rare.

Arvedui III · 04-06-2004, 10:03 AM

Herm...maybe Grima Wormtounge.

Lindolirian · 04-06-2004, 02:22 PM

Perhaps this will help

Quote:

...as he stood dumbfounded in the middle of his rage. He fell dead...

I reacquired my book, hoping the exact quote would help some.

Arestevana · 04-07-2004, 06:01 PM

Aha! Thankyou Google!

The Great Goblin from the hobbit, killed by Gandalf.

Lindolirian · 04-07-2004, 07:28 PM

Google!!! *Glares viciously*

Sheesh, well ya got it right, but... Google???

You could at least not tell me that's what you did. Ah what the heck, go ahead...

Arestevana · 04-08-2004, 11:08 AM

*winces* Sorry. I promise never to use google for finding answers again. Good?

Alright... which baddy "leapt in the air ten feet"?

The Perky Ent · 04-08-2004, 03:02 PM

Ok, this is really random, but i don't have a clue, so...um...the balrog, because when he was killed, he kinda fell....which is like jumping....so....um....yeah...

Arestevana · 04-09-2004, 09:02 AM

No. "leaped in the air ten feet" is an exact quote.

Lindolirian · 04-09-2004, 06:12 PM

The Chief of the Wargs when Gandalf burnt his nose with a flaming pinecone.

Arestevana · 04-10-2004, 05:38 AM

Correct.

Lindolirian · 04-14-2004, 07:58 AM

Who took command of the forces of Mordor after Merry and Eowyn tore up on the Lord of the Nazgul?

NightKnight · 04-14-2004, 09:40 AM

Gothmog.

Lindolirian · 04-14-2004, 02:42 PM

Of course.

NightKnight · 04-15-2004, 10:51 AM

Three bad guys are known to have killed two dwarves each from the family tree in Appendix A. Who were they?

Arvedui III · 04-19-2004, 04:49 PM

Herm...I don't have a book on hand, but could they be the Balrog of Moria, Azog the goblin and Smaug?

NightKnight · 04-20-2004, 01:25 PM

Two right, one wrong.

Sirithheruwen · 04-20-2004, 01:35 PM

Well, Azog (I'm pretty sure) is correct...Thror and Nain.
The Bolrog, I think, is correct too...Durin and Nain I.
I also found this in Appendix A:

Quote:

At last Dain I, together with Fror, his second son, was slain at the doors of his hall by a great cold-drake.

I have no clue if that is what you were looking for though.

NightKnight · 04-20-2004, 01:37 PM

Perfect.

Sirithheruwen · 04-20-2004, 01:46 PM

Yay!

Ok, an easy one:
What injuries did Shagrat sustain during the fight in the Tower of Cirith Ungol?
Good luck, and don't solve it too fast!

NightKnight · 04-20-2004, 01:50 PM

He was stabbed in the arm.

Sirithheruwen · 04-20-2004, 01:52 PM

Too fast!
Yes. It was also "scored as if by rending claws," but since I didn't specify two, you're good to go!

Lindolirian · 05-12-2004, 08:08 AM

Cough... ahem.

NightKnight · 05-12-2004, 09:23 AM

Oops, sorry. I tend to forget about threads if I don't have the time to ask a new question immediately.

How many times did Gandalf encounter wolves, as far as we know?

Lindolirian · 05-12-2004, 03:50 PM

Yeah I forget about threads a lot too, I just happened to be in the second QuizRoom page cause I just got back from not being here a while and saw this one...
Gandalf encountered wolves at:

Glade where he burned them with pinecones
Battle of the Five Armies
Foothills of Caradhras
During the Battle of Helm's Deep when he gathered Erkenbrand and his men

Possibly I could add in when he escaped from the Orthanc, but he was many leagues away when they issued to pursue him, so it doesn't really count. I'd say four.

NightKnight · 05-12-2004, 03:52 PM

I hadn't thought about the Helm's Deep one, so you get a cookie for that one. Please continue.

Lindolirian · 05-12-2004, 04:00 PM

Ooo! A cookie! Yummm
What bad guy lived near Methon Amon?

NightKnight · 05-12-2004, 04:06 PM

After searching for it, the only site I found was in Italian.

Anyway, I think it's Saruman, since Methon Amon is Methedras.

Lindolirian · 05-12-2004, 04:08 PM

Hahaha!! Italian??? Thats funny, do you know Italian?
Oh yeah, its right...

NightKnight · 05-12-2004, 04:10 PM

No, I don't, but it said Methedras in the same sentance, so I took a guess.

Where do you get all those strange names from anyway?

How many orcs attacked Isildur on the Gladden Fields?

Lindolirian · 05-31-2004, 12:18 PM

Isildur went with his three sons and a guard of two hundred men. The attacking Orcs were said to have out numbered them many times even up to ten times. So I'd go with around two thousand Orcs.

NightKnight · 05-31-2004, 12:23 PM

Something like that, yes.
