I for Isildur's Bane
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.

Wraiths: The 9 men to whom Sauron gave the nine rings of men too. They wore these rings for so long that they were more in the hidden wraith-world than Middle-earth.

Lyra Greenleaf · 07-06-2003, 12:23 PM

Of course they aren't evil...I didn't know there was a "theme" because I hadn't read the thread carefully enough. Sorry... [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]

Okey, we are on towns,cities and villages, right?

F for Frogmorten. In ROTK it says it's a village right on the Road, about twenty-two miles from the Bridge. The Floating Log is a good Inn there.

Eh? There be no settlement at Paladin, unless he be in the Midgewater Marshes and hosting a colony of them pesky Neekerbreekers. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

How about P for Pelargir, port of Gondor where Aragorn routed the Corsairs.
