Here Goes,

They all choose a differed pad then there direct family.

Luthien choose to be mortal.
Celebrain, after she was poisoned, took the first ship west.
Maeglin choose for an alliance with Morgoth.
Tuor went west.
Arwen also choose to be mortal.

Telchar · 11-04-2003, 11:35 AM

Still no! - As I said before - look family trees!!!

MAJOR HINT: LOOK AT THE PARENTS BROTHERS AND SISTERS

Estanesse · 11-07-2003, 10:46 AM

At least one of there parents had a brother???

Lindolirian · 11-07-2003, 02:48 PM

Luthien's father's brother was Olwë
Celebrian's mother's brother was (or the most well known) was Finrod Felagund
Maeglin's mother's brother was Turgon
Tuor's father's brother was Hurin
Arwen's father's brother was Elros

Olwë was the ruler of Alqualondë
Finrod was the ruler of Nargothrond
Turgon was the ruler of Gondolin
Hurin was the ruler of Dor-lómin.
Elros was the ruler of Numenorë.

In short, all their uncles were powerful rulers.

... then look at their close family...

Extra HINT: Frodo/Bilbo

Finwe · 11-07-2003, 10:16 PM

All of them were raised, or influenced, at some point by their rich, famous uncles???

Telchar · 11-08-2003, 07:26 AM

Forget the aunts and uncles [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Eowyn:Lady of Rohan · 11-08-2003, 07:11 PM

I'll take a guess. Is it the fact they were raised by one parent?

Telchar · 11-09-2003, 02:45 AM

no

Telchar · 11-09-2003, 07:57 AM

HINT: OK take a look at the cousins - its all about cousins

Lindolirian · 11-11-2003, 06:53 PM

<font color= "green"> Luthien's cousin: Earwen
Celebrian's cousin: Finduilas
Maeglin's cousin: Idril Celebrindal
Tuor's cousin: Nienor
Arwen's cousin: Aragorn?

Each one of these people was loved by someone, but they didn't return the love.

Telchar · 11-11-2003, 07:00 PM

Good thinking Lindo.... but still no...

Luthien's cousin: Earwen <--- RIGHT COUSIN
Celebrian's cousin: Finduilas <--- RIGHT COUSIN
Maeglin's cousin: Idril Celebrindal <--- WRONG COUSIN
Tuor's cousin: Nienor <--- RIGHT COUSIN
Arwen's cousin: Aragorn? <--- WRONG COUSIN

Find the correct cousins for Maeglin and Arwen and you might be able to see the connection...

Telchar · 11-14-2003, 10:06 AM

HINT: Here are the correct cousins - that has got to help you guys...

Luthien's cousin: Earwen
Celebrian's cousin: Finduilas
Maeglin's cousin: Gil-galad
Tuor's cousin: Nienor
Arwen's cousin: Vardamir

Estanesse · 11-20-2003, 04:19 PM

They all have a cousin whom they never meet.

Telchar · 11-21-2003, 05:18 PM

That wasnt so har was it???

Please go on Estanesse - good job!

Telchar · 11-23-2003, 11:49 AM

to quote yourself: It was a walk in the park ... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Merry
Frodo
Pippin
Bilbo

Estanesse · 11-23-2003, 04:34 PM

Not very creative of me but they are all cousins of Frodo.

OR

They all where record holders, more or less.

Merry and Pippin are the tallest hobbits.
Frodo is the best hobbit in the Shire according to Gandalf and Bilbo.
Bilbo is the oldest hobbit.

OR

Or Gandalf had a clear opinion about them.

Frodo the best hobbit of the Shire
Pippin a fool [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
Merry repaid his trust
Bilbo the burglar

NightKnight · 11-25-2003, 11:57 AM

I wonder if you are going to kill me when you find the answer ... [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Telchar · 11-26-2003, 05:13 PM

HINT: It has to do with family [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Lyta_Underhill · 11-26-2003, 05:20 PM

They're all descended from Balbo Baggins and Berylla Boffin?

Cheers,

Telchar · 11-26-2003, 05:55 PM

Yeah - and everyone more or less comes from Eru [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] - nope sorry thats not it - the familyties are much closer....

Lindolirian · 11-26-2003, 09:20 PM

They're cousins.

Telchar · 11-27-2003, 01:25 AM

Didn't I Say 'MUCH' closer?

Estanesse · 11-27-2003, 04:50 AM

They are all related to Hildigrim Took

Telchar · 11-27-2003, 10:10 AM

Estanesse, didn't you read the hint? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

It's MUCH, MUCH, MUCH closer!!!!!

Here is another hint for you: FAMOUS SERIALKILLER!!! [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img] [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

The Laurenendorian · 11-27-2003, 01:36 PM

All brothers.

Edit: maybe not. The 'famous serial-killer' clue means nothing to me.

The serial-killer reference was because they could all call themself:....
