Findulas

Dimturiel · 07-29-2005, 11:30 AM

Findulas was from Nargothrond, not from Doriath. Try again.

Alcarillo · 07-29-2005, 01:04 PM

Was it Nellas?

Trick question. That's what I get for answering first thing in the morning without reading carefully.

Dimturiel · 07-30-2005, 02:21 AM

Yes,Alcarillo, it was Nellas. Sorry,Mormegil, better luck next time!

Alcarillo · 07-30-2005, 08:20 AM

Name two characters became one-handed.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 07-30-2005, 09:35 AM

Beren and . . . uh . . . Maedhros!

Alcarillo · 07-30-2005, 10:39 AM

Yep.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 07-30-2005, 11:12 AM

Which Elven prince had the biggest territory?

Gil-Galad · 07-30-2005, 11:34 AM

Fingolfin i beleive, of Hithlum, well Fingolfin/Fingon

Alcarillo · 07-30-2005, 11:35 AM

Finrod Felagund.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 07-30-2005, 11:39 AM

Back to you again.

Alcarillo · 07-30-2005, 11:46 AM

Who had hewn his right foot with an axe as a woodman?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 07-30-2005, 12:03 PM

Sador Labadal.

Alcarillo · 07-30-2005, 12:07 PM

Yep.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 07-31-2005, 07:38 AM

Name three characters who stepped into Angband on their own (that is, not forced into it).

Alcarillo · 07-31-2005, 01:08 PM

Beren, Lúthien, and Fingolfin? Does Beren count? He needed to enter Angband in order to retrieve a Silmaril, so would that count as being forced? And I know Fingolfin didn't enter Angband, but he did come pretty darn close to it, and I can't think of anybody else at the moment.

Gil-Galad · 07-31-2005, 07:51 PM

well theres Fingon...Luthien...and of course Eonwe and the Valar...Ooh Melkor! Sauron! and the Orcs that captured Hurin!

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-01-2005, 04:11 AM

But I should have clarified--"good" characters only.

I need one more.

Gil-Galad · 08-01-2005, 02:11 PM

wouldn't Fingon count? he chose to go to Angmar to look for Maedhros

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-02-2005, 03:06 AM

Fingon didn't enter Angband--he clomb it.

Look for guys with grudges, and you'll get who I'm looking for.

Alcarillo · 08-07-2005, 02:06 PM

Tulkas sort-of had a grudge, you could say. But he's not a "good" character, right?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-07-2005, 08:27 PM

I think it's Utumno he descended into.

Anyway, he's not the one I'm looking for.

HINT: He entered Angband a little bit after Beren and Lúthien.

Alcarillo · 08-07-2005, 08:42 PM

Was it Gwindor? He had a grudge because his brother was chopped up in plain sight, and he and his soldiers

... burst through the Gate and slew the guards upon the very stairs of Angband ...

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-07-2005, 08:45 PM

You got him!

Your thread.

Alcarillo · 08-07-2005, 08:51 PM

Who is the first named person to be killed by a dragon?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-07-2005, 09:01 PM

Azaghâl?

Alcarillo · 08-07-2005, 09:23 PM

Yep. Sorry if my question wasn't very clear.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-07-2005, 09:32 PM

And don't worry, the question was clear enough.

Name one Elf who went with Finrod and Beren.

Alcarillo · 08-07-2005, 09:53 PM

Edrahil's one of them.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-08-2005, 04:18 AM

Take it.

Alcarillo · 08-08-2005, 01:18 PM

Why was the River Ascar later called the Rathlóriel?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-08-2005, 07:42 PM

'cause the Laiquendi (led by Beren) battled the Menegroth-loot-laden Dwarves of Nogrod, and the treasures were dumped into the river.

Alcarillo · 08-08-2005, 07:45 PM

Yep. Your turn.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-08-2005, 08:00 PM

What was the real name of Húrin's first daughter?

Alcarillo · 08-08-2005, 08:32 PM

That would be Urwen.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-08-2005, 08:55 PM

Yours again.

Alcarillo · 08-08-2005, 08:59 PM

Who with Arminas came upon Tuor at Annon-in-Gelydh?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-08-2005, 09:19 PM

Gelmir.

Alcarillo · 08-08-2005, 10:03 PM

Your turn.
