Umbardacil, The title taken by King Telumehtar: In the early years of Telumehtar's reign over Gondor, his country's coasts were still prey to assaults from the Corsairs of Umbar, under the command of the descendants of Castamir. Telumehtar resolved to put an end to these attacks, and in III 1810 marshalled an assault of his own. In a great victory, the Corsairs were driven out of Umbar, which was captured for Gondor, and Telumehtar added the title Umbardacil, 'Victor over Umbar', to his name. Umbar was held by Gondor throughout Telumehtar's reign, but was lost soon after his death.

Valandil, the third king of Arnor and the youngest son of Isildur.

Arwen Imladris · 05-14-2003, 08:39 PM

Walda, The twelfth King of Rohan: The son and heir of Brytta Léofa. During his father's reign, Rohan had suffered warfare with Orcs that had descended from the North, and attempted to settle in the White Mountains. By the time Walda came to the throne, it was thought that the land was free of Orcs, but in the ninth year of his reign, Walda was slain by them near Dunharrow. He was succeeded by his son Folca, who avenged his father's death.

Tinuviel the Nightingale · 05-15-2003, 05:39 AM

Oh no stuck with X again!
X for X-tremely good king Aragorn.

Arwen Imladris · 05-15-2003, 02:10 PM

Yavanna, The Queen of the Earth: Called the 'Giver of Fruits', Yavanna was the Vala whose province was all growing things upon the earth. She was the spouse of Aulë the Smith.

Z will also be a hard one. What do you say we pick another topic?

Tinuviel the Nightingale · 05-15-2003, 05:30 PM

Could be a good idea, as I am fresh out of ideas for Z. What topic could we do, it seems like we've done every topic!

Arwen Imladris · 05-16-2003, 12:44 PM

Meh, we can do some of them over again. How about weapons?

Aiglos (Aeglos), The Spear of Gil-galad: The spear of Gil-galad, carried by him to the War of the Last Alliance. Its name is translated 'snow-point'.

elven maiden Earwen · 05-16-2003, 07:23 PM

B for Beater the english translation of Glamdring. Once a sword of Turgon king of Godillion but later carried by Gandalf

Arwen Imladris · 05-17-2003, 04:47 PM

Crebain, Black crows out of the southern Misty Mountains: Large black birds of crow-kind, native to the lands that bordered the southern Misty Mountains, Dunland to the west and Fangorn to the east. They seemed to possess at least some level of intelligence, and were apparently used as spies by Saruman during the War of the Ring.

Sorry, couldn't think of anything better. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

elven maiden Earwen · 05-18-2003, 05:46 PM

D for Dramborleg

Arwen Imladris · 05-19-2003, 01:30 PM

Man, this is hard! Who started this idea anyway?

Oppps.

How about:

Enchanted Isles, Entrapments of the western seas: Part of the defences of Valinor, a group of islands set in the Great Sea to prevent mariners from reaching Aman.

Lyra Greenleaf · 05-23-2003, 11:25 AM

F for "Flame of the West" aka Anduril

**The Saucepan Man** · 05-24-2003, 07:53 PM

G is for Glamdring the "Foe Hammer".

Tinuviel the Nightingale · 05-25-2003, 01:58 AM

H is for Herugrim, the sword of Theoden

Arwen Imladris · 05-25-2003, 05:26 PM

Isildur’s Bane, Betrayer of the second Ring-bearer: A name for the One Ring. After Sauron's defeat in the War of the Last Alliance, Isildur Elendil's son took the Ring, and later journeyed northward with it to his kingdom of Arnor. Ambushed by Orcs, Isildur's small force was cut down, and he fled the battle wearing the Ring. It slipped from his finger, though, and so both Isildur and the Ring were lost.
