Bingo

Brothers and sisters for the theme.

EILINEL for the password? (Must check if she had a brother).

AILINEL.
So Aldarion must be there somewhere. EDIT: Must be the first one, if Ailinel is right. It's ok. I'll do the work ... Trouble is, none of Tolkien's deceivers seem to fit. Neither do synonyms like 'liar' or 'cheat' or 'fraud.'

Oh yes!
So ... ALDARION - LIAR = DAON. Something -adon? Although that sounds more like a painkiller. ... RADON! So yes: ALDARION. I think the last two can only be IMRAHIL and IVRINIEL. But I need to work out how.

*Feeling dim.* I am doing a lot of looking but not seeing on this puzzle.
I am stumped on Ivriniel, though. I have found famous Newfoundlanders, but none of them have names that provide the elements needed.

If within indicates IN, we're left with VIRILE.
Perhaps 'a' indicates 1/I. That would leave VRILE to account for.

Well, you got the name, so I'll tell you.
There is a synonym for Newfoundlander: LIVIER. If you add IN, you get the name.

That was really good, Urwen. It's hard to fit pairs in *and* use all first letters.
I will post one when I get home. I have a couple ready.

Well, I couldn't find the answer at all, and I worked backward from your guess. So, team effort.

Indeed - and it's most fun when several of us are solving a puzzle together.
Once more, then: 1. For him, a liquid and a fricative blend with sweet Italian! 2. The Spanish pull the oars in this place, we hear. Now see him. 3. He initially turns a machine for her. 4. Ugh, he dropped one! Slightly sibilant, and mildly unsettling! 5. He enticed him, we hear (in slightly improper English). 6. Barnet youth loses one, but see him reform. 7. Ancient letter – elemental! Mix to find him.

All correct except for Thorin (which is an excellent answer, just not the one I'm looking for).

Liquid is L or R. Dolce is italian for sweet. But there are many fricatives....

No. I don't know what Edan is, and I always account for every letter of the answer.
None of the answers is Fengel.

Edan is an ancient letter (ᚫᚪ or eadan)
