Both their daughters were quite wilful - they made their own decisions, etc...?

Both had elvish blood in them?
Both were decendents from lords of Dol Amroth?

No ... I'm thinking of Aredhel as in a Noldo who lived in the First Age, the sister of Fingon and Turgon, Gil-galad. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

They both married bold, masterful men, and were eventually (directly or indirectly) killed by them.
Aredhel --> the poisoned dart flung by Eol Finduilas --> when darkness began to "contaminate" Denethor, she sensed it, and began to "fade."

Both of their kids had weird relationships with their fathers?

Okay, you're basically there. You just need to be slightly more specific. Stay with the father/son thing.

Both had husbands who disdained/hated their sons, and directly or indirectly tried to kill them?

Both were leading a small part of a greater army to battle?

They both took realms by the sea, or had things to do with swans (eg: swan knights of Dol Amroth and Swan ships of Aqualonde)

*bump* This game is too much fun to die! I'm clueless, but someone must know the answer.

Ok... I'll give you guys another hint...

Herm...no clue, time to guess. Both their sisters bore two sons? Faramir and Boromir for Finduilas and Fingolfin and Finarfin for Indis.

Since Finwe hasn't checked in in over ten days, I'll steal the thread
What is the connection between Gimli and Feanor

Didn't both ask Galadriel for some of her hair?

Going out on a limb here... both loved Galadriel? I think I remember reading that Feanor loved Galadriel, but she didn't love him.

Oh dear... I completely forgot about this thread... Anyway... in hindsight, the answer to mine was:
Both of their sisters had husbands who died untimely deaths.

They both lived in the Misty Mountains for a time? Gollum in his cave and Balin in Moria?

They both died in a place full of fire? Gollum died at Mount Doom, which is very fiery, and Balin died in Moria, which has a balrog...which is also fiery!
