Also, I don't know what to make of #1 either, and do you have time to make a new riddle for riddle game?

1. A little town, a dwarf, a lost path and one Master of Ceremonies combine – however tumultuously – for him.
RIAN: She’s like a country in turmoil. ORI: He confuses the French king. 4. A wilder roar than that will bring him. 5. Vegetable changes vowels and is blended for him. ELENWE: It takes three paths, a sheep, and great unrest to find her. 7. See a Dark Elf gallivant around for him! 8. See him suffer lashes, initially, then chaos. 9. Policemen’s chorus loses order and sailor for him. 10. How the toga’d ones were toga’d, he shows, if chaotically. LAURELIN: For this, Petrarch’s muse, (here unsung), meets one who brought us a shieldmaiden, (we hear). 12. With seven pushbacks, it sounds like a seventies serial might cede a fragrant one for a bun fight. GAD is correct, and you have the other element. Has hS said it's my turn yet? I thought he wanted all the seven rivers. Leave 1 for now. There are easier ones to solve.

Except there is no character name comprised solely of Gad + Eol, or at least Tolkien gateway shows none.

Is it deceased people/things? If so, 12 must be Telperion.

Yes, more or less, but 12 isn't Telperion.
Yes, L is the right initial.

Only undergo, out of those, is really a synonym of suffer.
And not the right one, unfortunately.

Well, the link is wrong.
'Bear' is closer.

The website you are using gives related words, or words in the same semantic field. They are often the wrong part of speech to be a synonym.
Or, for instance, to 'writhe' is something you might *do* if you were suffering, but it doesn't *mean* to suffer. I have tried that website before, but for the reasons above I find it far better to type the word into Google, add the word 'synonyms,' and press 'Enter.'

No, there isn't.
You are ignoring an essential word of the clue.

I think 4 is quite easy.
And 10 is one I've used before, with a similar clue, if you want to use the 'Search' function again.

No. Look for an anagram indicator.

But you said we don't need a synonym for 'roar' either.

There are only roar and an anagram indicator in a clue.....if there are more clues, I don't get the meaning of those.
