Oh, I completely forgot about this thread - Finrod is correct but Maedhros isn't.

Fingolfin II · 03-31-2004, 01:32 AM

OK, in that case would it be Feanor then? I wasn't sure which one I should put in- Maedhros or Feanor- but I chose Maedhros. Anyway my reason for Feanor is that he was known as "The Spirit of Fire" or "Fell Fire" and he was slain in the fire of the Lord of the Balrogs- Gothmog. Is that ok?

Firefoot · 03-31-2004, 06:07 AM

Not Fëanor either.

NightKnight · 03-31-2004, 09:01 AM

Aegnor?

Firefoot · 03-31-2004, 02:49 PM

Yes, it's Aegnor. I guess that makes it NightKnight's turn.

NightKnight · 04-01-2004, 05:37 AM

He conquered great treasure

Died childless in the woods

Fingolfin II · 04-04-2004, 06:18 PM

Beren and Dorlas?

NightKnight · 04-10-2004, 02:36 AM

The first one is correct, the second is not.

HINT: They are related.

Fingolfin II · 04-11-2004, 03:53 AM

Ok, could it be Beren and his grandchildren Elured and Elurin?

NightKnight · 04-11-2004, 04:38 AM

Correct.

Fingolfin II · 04-11-2004, 08:22 PM

Ok, here's one:

Grandson of the Crotch

I coveted the White Stone with all my heart; I am dead now, with the White Stone laid upon my heart

NightKnight · 04-12-2004, 02:30 AM

Gimli and Thorin?

Fingolfin II · 04-12-2004, 11:03 PM

Yep.

NightKnight · 04-13-2004, 05:52 AM

Dark one fell down

and

Death struck him from beneath

Fingolfin II · 04-14-2004, 05:44 AM

After puzzling about this for ages I think I came up with the answer:

Ancalagon the Black

and

Glaurung

NightKnight · 04-14-2004, 09:44 AM

Excellent, your turn.

Fingolfin II · 04-15-2004, 01:56 AM

Evil lust and dark seed wrought destruction.

Valiance led to rashness; rashness led to challenge; challenge led to death

NightKnight · 04-15-2004, 10:39 AM

Maeglin and Fingolfin?

Fingolfin II · 04-15-2004, 06:50 PM

Correct again

.

NightKnight · 04-16-2004, 03:24 AM

I'm getting good at this.

Great man of many names

and

The Golden Head

Gil-Galad · 04-16-2004, 08:35 AM

Beren, son of Barahir and Glorfindel?

NightKnight · 04-16-2004, 08:40 AM

Both wrong.

Fingolfin II · 04-16-2004, 08:38 PM

For the first one, I'm thinking Aragorn, and the second Theoden, but they're not related, so I'll say- Thengel and Theoden?

NightKnight · 04-16-2004, 08:53 PM

Nope.

Evisse the Blue · 04-17-2004, 11:10 AM

Turin and Nienor?

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-17-2004, 05:51 PM

Turin Turambar and Hador Lorindol?

NightKnight · 04-18-2004, 03:48 AM

Saucepan has it.

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-18-2004, 05:58 PM

Cheers, NightKnight.

One who cared for horses

One who challenged the Black Riders

NightKnight · 04-19-2004, 12:37 AM

Eomer and Theoden?

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-19-2004, 03:11 AM

Nope.

Fingolfin II · 04-19-2004, 05:12 AM

Eomer and Eowyn?

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-19-2004, 06:26 AM

No, neither is from Rohan.

NightKnight · 04-19-2004, 09:31 AM

Is the second one Eärnur?

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-19-2004, 10:27 AM

No. The use of the term "Black Riders" is intended to relate them to a specific period of time.

NightKnight · 04-19-2004, 10:43 AM

Either Aragorn or Glorfindel, then?

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-19-2004, 10:47 AM

No, I am afraid not.

NightKnight · 04-19-2004, 10:59 AM

Is the first one Bob, then? And the second... Farmer Maggot?

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-19-2004, 11:02 AM

Bob is correct, Farmer Maggot is not.

NightKnight · 04-19-2004, 12:56 PM

I guess Frodo did challenge them on Weathertop, when he attack WK. Is it him?

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-19-2004, 06:16 PM

Nope.
